10 tenths isn't the most active forum I am involved with and I must say my input here is limited because most of my contributions are done through Tapatalk 2 and this one doesn't appear in the list.
From what I believe, the latest version of TapaTalk is now free as they are concentrating on selling branded versions of the app to individual forum owners. Tenths should appear on the list of sites though. On my Android phone I can find it with a search on ten-tenths and also in the sports/motorsports directory.

I thought long and hard about the decision to make TapATalk a "subscriber only" service. My feeling was that with the increase in screen size and functionality of the browsers on mobile devices that Tenths was available on these and that asking users to pay the princely sum of £0.03 a day for the convenience of accessing Tenths advert free on all devices was a pretty good deal.

Maybe it's time for me to reconsider.
