    As some users may know, ECC has just recently integrated Tapatalk for their forums, this means that you can easily post and view the forums in seconds from your Android phone. I am going to show you the basics on how to do it

    1. This is what you will see when you open the ECC forums via a web browser on your phone

    2. Next go to the "google play" store on your phone and search for "Tapatalk", as you will see there are 2 different versions, one of them costs whereas the other is free, click on the one that is the same as below.

    3. Once the app has downloaded and has finished installing, click on it to launch it.

    4. Once the app is open click on the magnifying glass icon in the top right, once you have clicked that type "ecocitycraft" in the search bar like so.

    5. Hit enter, below you should see ecc forum logo pop up, click it

    6. Once you have clicked the icon you should be presented with the screen like below, this is the timeline, this is where you will see all of the threads on ecc in order of new postings.

    7. Swipe your finger from left to right, this side menu should appear, if so, click on "Login", this is where you insert your ecocitycraft forum name and forum password.

    8. Enter your login details as seen below. (This is the same username and password as you would use via desktop).

    9. Congratulations, you are now logged in, next slide your finger from left to right, just like before except this time click on "Settings"

    10. Click on the option that says "Tapatalk signature" MAKE SURE THIS IS SET TO "NONE". This is simply to reduce forum spam as there is no need for a signature advertising an outside application.

    11. All done, enjoy, if you need any more help on figuring out how to post and view specific threads then feel free to message me.
