Greg Johnson said:Ianfra - there are a couple of aspects about the new website that I've been told are firm. One is that spoilers are staying, the other is that we are not going back to the old website.
I understand some people won't agree with these decisions, but I am told that on these topics the decisions are final and am just communicating this to you so you're informed. I'm not putting it the way you claim - but equally, I'm not leading anyone on. The new website is the new website - there's no point me leading you to believe otherwise if that is hard and fast fact.
Thanks

Greg, none of my comments to you personally were meant as insults. There is understandably a lot of anger coming from your readers. But whoever or whomever made the decision about the spoilers are acting like a bunch of f***ing clueless fools.
As I and many other readers have stated the spoilers are a deal breaker for us unless some solution can be made. Like myself and others have suggested. Is it really that hard for the powers that be to understand that the no spoilers issue was one of if not the # 1 reason the old site was so popular even with it's outdated and hard to update design? It might not fit into the normal news site model but it worked and worked well. They have the opportunity to fill a niche market and be it's leader. There needs to be more originality in this world not less. But they seem to be shortsighted and just want to be like everyone else.
