I guess you can't take a joke, too bad. But, I have found that self-effacing humor is better received than arrogance. I was of the assumption that, being the proud owner of 2 Provari myself allowed me entry into this group. If you had bothered to check my profile you would have found that I often write glowingly about my Provari. My name suggestion was meant to make light of the fact that many around the forum believe us (Provari owners) to be a bunch of pompous pontificators. I haven't found that to be true, but I suppose that I could be wrong.

Full Definition of ARROGANCE
: an attitude of superiority manifested in an overbearing manner or in presumptuous claims or assumptions

Try not to take it personally. The Lion is just practicing being an over zealous mod. He has a long way to go before he's ready for retirement.

Are you apologizing for me, petite predator? I suppose that if you are it is okay, but please tell me you don't believe his ridiculous, backtracking excuse for the first post. I find the revisionist 'I was just kidding' angle to be patently absurd, and even more insulting to our intelligence than his presumption that we are so dull that we need both "pontificate" and "arrogance" defined for us.

My 5+6 year olds are masters of the "just kidding" out.

I would never be so presumptuous as to apologize for any of your words or deeds. I was merely using your post as a springboard for my own joke, that appears to have failed miserably. If one wishes to be funny, they have to be prepared to fall flat on their face. I do it all the time.

My take on JimzDogz post it that his joke failed. Perhaps in the future he might consider admitting a failed joke, rather than posting the definition of a personality trait you and I share.

JimzDogz: Lions are grumpy, it's part of their nature and charm. They also react very quickly, otherwise they wouldn't catch those pesky gazelle. Bottom line: Lions are lions. When a joke fails, the one who told it is at fault. I can't blame you if you don't think I'm funny.

Praetor: JimzDogz is not a troll. He has 2 ProVaris and needs to work on his comedic delivery.

No. Stop.
It is cumbersome to use. Stop.
It also does not show pictures, signatures, etc. Stop.
It is also hard to stay in a specific forum, it just shows whatever's new. Stop.

Lol! I deleted it days ago. Perhaps if someone has a pad or whatever, but I didn't like it on my phone. I don't feel the need to be online all the time anyway.

It does show pictures, and I find the navigation superior to the full version. Methinks you did not perform a full review of your settings ere you gave up on a nice app...

It does not show signatures, it's true, and I do have to lug out my PC from time to time for certain things which Tapatalk fails to do.

In any case, I like it. You guys don't have to use it if you don't like it. The Ocelot is new to smartphones in general (I believe), so her bumbling with it is hardly an indictment of the app.
