    Umm...My initial thought would be the age of your device and hardware. Have you had this issue with any other site?

    Also, this is a bug, not necessarily a complaint. Similar but definitely different so it's been moved there.

    There's two more limited viewing styles for older phones with smaller screens. It's not super beautiful, but it might help you. Personally, I find that the first one is a little less of a headache to navigate with. You can switch between with the provided links at the bottom of each of those styles. (Default Mobile and Lite Mobile)

    Thank you Mike. Sadly, this is a blind spot in my knowledge.

    First of all I'd probably advise against Opera Mini, I've just never personally found it all that great.
    If it's only the fan-fic section that is tripping you up this may be because it doesn't run entirely on the default forum system it makes use of a mod to change the appearance and layout (might be worth the staff looking into if that's the case).
    If the issue is indeed totally random and happens everywhere, it's probably a scatty connection and I can only recommend you try using the mobile styles as mike suggested.
