  Why do we have a spoiler on the home page?
  Before someone tells me this has being covered and I should have responded to someone else's post I am sorry but I am so annoyed that I could not find a post quick enough.
  I only listen on-line these days so you can just cut the announcer off if you are quick enough but I now have to put the home page on with my eyes nearly shut so I don't read what is to happen. I know it does not say much but do we really need telling who is going to do what! So annoyed
  The same as annoyed that you have to scroll down from the top'Discuss' to find the message board link to click on which board you want. Do you think this makes you read more of something? I am afraid not me.
  Not sure either if this is the right board that I am on for this complaint but I am sure someone will tell me

  Why not bookmark (listen again) and (DTA) and dispense with the home page altogether?
  
  Something only counts as a spoiler if it hasn't been broadcast, not if you personally haven't listened to it. So it's best to avoid places where plot points are likely to be given until you've caught up with the episodes.

  That is of course the only logical position, yet they say "careful may contain spoilers" above the SYNOPSIS posted on the CATCHUP page!!!! I find this about the most ridiculous thing on these boards.
  
  When oh when is the link to the message board going to be above that for the blog on the "Discuss" tab when the blog has its own tab?

  I use `history' to get onto the page I want. I usually start with My Discussions then you can hop anywhere. I find the home page most unhelpful and irritating ..

  So do I. But if I want to catchup I have to go to the home page so it irritates me all over again...

  Yes - there is a `taster' just before the LA isn't there? I think it's the same one that appears in RT

  I think you still get the `taster' - which is what the OP was complaining about ..

  I shouldn't have said home page, I meant navigating via the tabs. After I've been to catch up via the bar then to get back to discussions I have to click on the discuss tab and then the MB UNDER the link to the blog so that's what annoys me - I'm not the one complaining about spoilers on the home page.
