You can swipe through the lead stories on the iPad, but I find it difficult to swipe a story without actually "clicking?" it. Try to swipe through the stories while reading their topics, but don't select them. I don't have this issue anywhere else with the iPad. Anyone get what I'm saying?
 
I know I'm not crazy. I didn't tell my girlfriend about the problem and I asked her to use her iPad and scroll through the stories at different speeds and such, not selecting a story. She did so with no problem. Then she used my iPad and after a few swipes accidentally selected a story, then did it again, and again.

It happens so much that I don't visit the site anymore. Just wondered if others could replicate this issue.

Yeah, I have the same problem. It seems to happen after the swipe, not before. And it doesn't happen every time, but I can see how it would get frustrating.

It seems to happen for me mid-swipe or maybe right at the end of the swipe, but yeah, not in the beginning.
