  1. http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arab_slave_trade#section_1

    To a smaller degree, Arabs also enslaved Europeans. According to Robert Davis between 1 million and 1.25 million Europeans were captured by Barbary corsairs, who were vassals of the Ottoman Empire, and sold as slavesbetween the 16th and 19th centuries.[8][9] These slaves were captured mainly from seaside villages from Italy, Spain, Portugal and also from more distant places like France or England, the Netherlands, Ireland and evenIceland.[10] The impact of these attacks was devastating – France, England, and Spain each lost thousands of ships, and long stretches of the Spanish and Italian coasts were almost completely abandoned by their inhabitants. Pirateraids discouraged settlement along the coast until the 19th century

  2. Now that i have messed around with the mobile a little bit there are a few things. You can not see the shout out section. Also it would be nice to click on the left icon and have all the breadcrumbs come up. Right now you have to basically click that icon three times to get back to the main forum page. It would be nice if one had the option to jump to any level of the forum kind of like when you click the right icon and have the option to jump to blog, chat, etc
