New but not a newbie
 
Hey everyone, I recently came upon this board as I was looking for boards that support RSS because some still haven't enabled it yet (*cough* GFY *cough*). Been hanging out on some other boards for years so I look forward to participating here as well.

Welcome to XNations. You don't need GFY unless you're a masochist. :)

don't get it twisted, I wasn't saying I needed GFY, but its the biggest adult board so it would be nice keep tabs on whats going on there. However I find that without RSS its just too time consuming. I like RSS cause I add my board feeds to my reader, I can search them, set alerts, etc etc. I still visit the forum, but I don't waste time going through pages and pages of threads.

Thanks for the welcome!

You're welcome. Colts fan?

Peedy 12-04-2007 01:14 PM

Yeah I like the colts, but my team is actually the Bears. I grew up with Walter Payton and the Fridge, hard to sway from that nostalgia.

GFY might not have implemented the RSS feed because of the advertisers. Maybe the thinking might be that if they enable the feed, people will just read that and visit the board should they find something interesting. Where if they don't enable the feed, people have to visit the board, they will most likely at least see an advertiser, if not actually click an ad.

Yeah im sure it has something to do with it, but as long as there is interesting topics (via the feed) I visit the board many times to reply, etc. This is the same arguement "old media" makes about everything. When time and time again its being proved that its really a non-issue.
