Since I have finally gotten ahold of this extremely wonderful 9930, I've noticed that when I posted on my old 9650, Tour, or Storm2 it would show that posted from my CrackBerry note at the bottom, whereas this one does not. It's not exactly important, I just kind of wondered why it went away?

The forum should show the posted from message when you use the mobile site. Perhaps you are using the full site on the 9930, since it is more capable of handling it? If you are you can change to the mobile furom from the selector box to the lower left of the forum.

No, I certainly know the difference. I am certainly on the mobile site, as the option is always up-top to switch to "full desktop version."

Would you have any other ideas? :/

*edit:
Just to be specific, it is a Bold 9930, Verizon, running 7.1.0.163, and I am using the native browser.

Pkcable; I know what is going on! Sort of.
I fire up the browser, and in my bookmarks I have m.crackberry.com and when I want to go to the forums I hit the forums link. Well, I took your advice in a manner of speaking and switched over to the full desktop version to look at that drop down box you were talking about. My phone, by default, is going into a theme named Operation CrackBerry Mobile 2011.

So, what this experiment has taught me that by default the browser when directed to the forums from m.crackberry.com automatically loads the forum in the Operation CrackBerry Mobile 2011 theme. Posting from that view mode does not leave the "posted from my crackberry" message. Once I switched it to wap3, it shows up, like in this post.

Now that we know that, I either have to make the wap3 forums my bookmark and make the CB main page a seperate one if I wish it to show I'm posting from my phone, unless you know a way to make the browser automatically choose wap3 instead of that other theme?

Yes that is exactly what is happening. I'm not sure if that is an option that you can change, or if it's something we have to change on our end. I will ask around.

When you make a post using the new theme, does it include your desktop signature, if you view it on desktop? Just curious

No. It does not include the desktop signature, nor does it include the "posted from Crackberry" signature.

It includes the post, but that is all. If you do a search of my posts, you'll see the ones without any signature at all.
