A needless mouse click

Why do websites do this so often? It took me a second, but i noticed that the "features" section changed depending on what you click.  Well just let me customize that in your home page if I want to.  I don't think I've ever used one of these option effectively - I'll find what I want to find on your homepage.  And if your homepage doesn't have an easy link to whatever I'm looking for, change your homepage.  ESA doesn't ask "Are you a game publisher? Are you a consumer? Are you an ESA Employee? Are you here to complain about Grand Theft Auto?"

Sorry designers, it's stupid.


And for me, I know enough to just not care.  But for people like my dad, he'll sit there and read the options, think about it, then select the right one.
