Having an RSS feed to tell us when new posts arrive would be nice.

I went ahead and upgraded the forum software to the latest version so it should be easier to add an RSS feed. What do you use as your RSS reader? I have seen a few different RSS feed hacks. Have any recommendations?

I typically use Thunderbird email for an RSS reader. I also have an RSS plugin for the Trillian Pro chat client, which I use extensively.

For the time being until I can get a better hack installed you can -
Open Thunderbird
Click on "Manage Subscriptions"
Paste feed url - http://www.fragoutpost.com/forums/external.php
Eventually I'll get a better RSS feed set up. I'm still looking into it.

BTW - Thunderbird is great software. I assume you are using FireFox too right? For anyone not using Thunderbird or FireFox I suggest you give it a try. Both are completely free.

Looks great! It appears to be working in Thunderbird and in Trillian's plugin. Nice work.:D
I do use Firefox as well. I'm glad to see your site plays nicely with it. So many still don't.

The site is more likely to have issues with IE because I do almost all of my testing in FireFox. :D
