Anyone else had this problem? Selecting the XML feed off the front page, whatever articles I get through I get it through many times.

The "Waaambulance" one for example, I had feeds linking to:

http://bungie.com/News/TopStory.aspx?link=waaahmbulance
http://bungie.net/News/TopStory.aspx?link=waaahmbulance
http://www.bungie.net/News/TopStory.aspx?link=waaahmbulance

Not exactly ideal! Is there a way to get each feed through only once? Thanks.

My computing skills are rather limited, and thus I only understand so much of your post. But I do understand enough to know that this thread belongs in The Septagon, as it regards Bungie.net and doesn't fall under "Bungie general".

You've been here for over one and a half years now. Please get the forums right :-)

EDIT: The thread did get moved.

Facts are the enemy of tru7h....

Yea i get this too, although i only get one duplicate. It must be something to do with how the feeds are put together. I guess if the Main news feed was put together from multiple other feeds you'd get duplicates. Not too sure though, RSS isn't my forte. Maybe it happens because someone edits the feed. Hopefully someone with more knowledge on this will come and explain, i'd like to know.

I don't think there's anything you can actually do about it though.

Hooray! Someone else has this problem too!!

Anyway, about 10 minutes ago, i just got 15 new feeds. 13 of them were repeated. I don't like this. It messes up my rss feeder. Since the 23/3/06, i've had 259 feeds sent. And I know there havn't been that many news posts since then.

Also the AR is actually good in CQB now and no longer a glorified baseball bat.

I get two of the newest top story when I view the RSS feed on live.com or on google.

I'm just wondering if Bungie realise it's not RSS'ing properly, bit annoying at the moment, especially if you use Google Homepage or equivalent. You have to have over 6 on display just in case there's a few new items with duplicates.

I don't know it isn't like too many people use it. I remember when I first saw it I was like "huh whats RSS/XML?" Once I relisze what you can do with it I was hooked. But all the glitches are makeing it somewhat iritateing.
