it should update as soon as there is a new post in the feed you're monitoring. Does it?

TFP has an RSS feed? This excites me.

An example of what my TFP RSS Feed looks like as of a minute ago:
TFP Feed Picture click to show After a perusal, I see that most forums are included, though new topics are sparse in some. Also, I don't think any of the privileged forums can be seen within the feed (at least within my own they are not visible).

I subscribed immediately upon viewing this thread and was disappointed to discover that the feed consists almost entirely of porn. My hopes and dreams have been crushed.

[Yes I did manual updates on them.] As I recall, I saw no new posts from the entire chatter section, saw a post from Motors, a post from entertainment, and the rest was a lot of porn. It's been a quarter of an hour and none of the new posts are showing up. I tried going to different sub forums and clicking the RSS feed there, but there is nothing different between them. All feeds are the main TFP page feed (which I expected anyways).

--------------------
My conclusion: The only pattern I can figure out is that the RSS feed only shows new threads. Only threads that are visible to unregistered users show up in the RSS feed it seems- so my test was useless to show that new threads are shown in the RSS feed. I can only use http://www.tfproject.org/tfp/showthread.php?t=134404 as proof that only new threads are visible in the RSS. When ngdawg created that thread I saw it in the feed, but the feed is not refreshed once new posts are created.
