I am interested in participating in this community, but the forum font is WAAY too large for me to cope with. Is there a way to make it smaller?

try reducing the font size in your browser. i.e. press ctrl+"-" (ctrl and the plus or minus sign to change the size)

Something is off and our forum thinks that you are using a mobile device to access it (you are seeing the mobile version of the forum and that's why the font is HUGE).

Can you please PM me what browser you are using or try another browser?

Thank you.

your account might have accidentally gotten set to mobile mode. make sure you're logged in and go to this link: ucp.php?i=165

then in the menu choices, make sure for "my board style" that subsilver2_beta or subsilver 2 are selected. if you have mtheme selected it will think you are browsing from a phone and it will make the font weird. also, as bb suggested, try using a different browser. i use google chrome and it works ok

I use an HTC Hero, and the font for the mobile site is way too large.

Bump: The mobile site is not even possible to navigate, each letter is as big as my screen. Even if I zoom out all the way it's still really hard to navigate. (HTC-Hero) browser, I have no issue with facebook/cnn mobile sites.

Hi. I've sent you a PM. Your mobile device should now be recognized as a mobile device.

Haha, the topic title was funny - it is rather large on mobile, though...
