OK I am a regular Underground and Tramlink user but whenever I

Most valaidators face out so welcome travellers to the system but
don't help those existing the system.

Thoughts?

Do they still have those misleading - totally incorrect in fact -
signs on the validators that only pay-as-you-go customers need to
swipe in? (It should be that all Oyster customers need to swipe in).

According to the "Common Questions" on the DLR part of TfL's website "If
you are using pay as you go, you must touch your Oyster card on the
reader every time you enter and exit the station."

If you are using a valid Travelcard loaded on your Oyster, or a Freedom
Pass, there's no point in touching in and out on DLR where there are no
gates.

So if you have a zone 2 travelcard and you are travelling from Cutty
Sark to Mornington Crescent, you don't have to swipe in? When do you
pay for zone 1?
