I did just that, and it effectively adds Melbourne Gamers to the 'feeds'...

But the links still point to example.com! See the status bar at the bottom (my mouse pointer was above "MelbourneGamers.com").

Did yours correctly point here?

Hmm.. you're right. The feed installs, but no updates come through. The last few posts should have turned up on the rss page..

Ben probably screwed it up.

It can take quite a while for new posts to come through. Your RSS reader has to poll (ie periodically check) the rss feed, unlike email where updates are pushed to you more or less immediately. I think the rss feed is still useful for seeing new threads, but the email notifications are still useful for participating in a thread that you've already posted in. That's how I'm doing it anyway.

For the RSS beginners, I think it is useful if you have a lot of low traffic blogs/comics/news sites/etc sites that you want to keep up with. I've tried using it for high traffic sites, and it is not that useful. If a site you want to read has 10 or more updates per day, it is easier just to go to that site, rather than trying to read it through RSS.

Then again, I got the message from frank about him being away for the weekend and not knowing if he can play TI3, but I haven't got any of the messages from this thread.

I've been busy playin' ET:Quake Wars and Team Fortress 2; Sorry guys!

I changed the RSS plugin because "Smartfeed" was crap anyway. This one still needs some of my time, there are no author names appearing yet. So grab the new URL and put it in your aggregator, should tide you over for a bit

Much, much better Thanks, bsmith!
