We were a little under the weather last night so we went to bed early (so nice to get extra sleep) and missed DS.

Entered the website without thinking (duh, I know better) for another reason and immediately saw the DS spoiler in a thread title. (Hadn't opened the DS thread but it was on top, naturally.) Probably won't see it until this evening and wouldn't have bothered posting about the finale but others may be out there in the same situation.

Perhaps TexBaby could change the Subject line of his/her thread on their behalf.

Thanks.

Ya know.... if you don't want to know who won, or what happened, this probably isn't the best place to hang out. Rather than expect everyone else not to talk about it.

If you actually read my post, Winyan, and understand the difference between a website and a thread, then you probably realize that the "Brittani was Robbed!!!!" title was on top of this section. (You had actively posted in that thread on that day, BTW.) In addition, you also understand that thread titles are visible when they're "on top", as I mentioned.

When the page opened with that title visible, I actually read 0 of the DS threads and was on this website for less than 5 minutes. Does that constitute hanging out?

I'm sorry that my pc opened up automatically to the HGTV mb. (I typically clear all my cookies but had fallen asleep at the screen that evening.) Guess you've never had that happen. right?

This week we did watch DSAS. Today, I noticed a thread entitled "Leslie should have gone home" plus another thread about viewers attempting to watch the episode online. Well, guess they already know about 1 contestant who was spared.

Besides the west coast viewers, some simply don't have the time to settle in and watch an episode as it originally airs. For whatever reason, they may want enter this site before viewing something. I'll change this thread title to better reflect the issue. Apparently "Spoilers in Thread Titles" wasn't specific enough.

It was your mistake then. Just take responsibility for it without expecting everyone else to change for you.
