The Boards need to be Mobile-Friendly

You cannot use champion, item, or summoner spell icons, stickers, links, text boxes, bold, italics, or other features of the boards while using mobile (unless you remember the specific text for doing so {{champion:#}} for champion icons as an example).

Additionally, sometimes you would have to constantly refresh the page or toggle between viewing desktop site and mobile site (of which there is no difference) if you wanted the boards to work on mobile. And posts could not be edited or deleted from mobile.

Now with the UI update, you cannot even check for your own updates because the top bar is so messy on mobile.

Just, like the title says, make the boards mobile-friendly. You guys run the most popular computer game in the world. It can't kill you to fix the website for mobile devices.

I'd love to post pics and gifs but I can't seem to find a way on mobile.

The boards are unusable mobile now. The boards are half cut off. This overhaul should not have happened. I don't know why Riot thought that the boards needed to be fixed when they clearly weren't a problem.

I'm in the "power user" category, so I can remember all the text formatting (except URL formatting), but not having access to icons bugs me to no end.

Additionally, sometimes you would have to constantly refresh the page or toggle between viewing desktop site and mobile site (of which there is no difference) if you wanted the boards to work on mobile.

Pro tip: don't use your browsers desktop mode toggle, use the one built into the boards. The browser one will reload the page (and destroy anything you've typed) while the built in one will change the page layout without refreshing. It's one way to enter icons while mostly using mobile.
