RSS feed
 

Please can you do something about the news feed, as it keeps posting repeats of the same stories. It's getting a bit tedious to have to keep deleting the same 40 stories in Thunderbird [it's only the Madshrimps feed that's doing it, all my others are fine].

Hey there, there might be an issue with Feedburner service , unfortunately there's not much we can do about it at our end :(

I forced a ReSync of our feed; hopefully this will clear out the issues in the future; there might be doubles of the last 40 items or so, but after that should be ok.
I'll keep an eye on the feed. (I check it daily through Google Reader, only noticed the double entries this morning, the previous days it seemed ok?)

Was still doing it a couple of hours ago, but seems ok as of about half an hour ago. <fingers crossed>

using Google Reader I've not had any doubles since yesterday.. let me know if it keeps up; you're using Thunderbird's integrated RSS?

Yep [2.0.0.21], & it looks like I spoke too soon, as it's doing it again. There's no probs with another feed I'm subscribed to that uses feedburner [icanhascheezburger.com].

my troubleshooting options are extremely limited on this one as the feed is hosted off-site; what feed URL are you using?

http://feeds.feedburner.com/madshrimps


No repeats, just new news items, since about 15:00 [UK time].

can you try http://feeds2.feedburner.com/madshrimps ?

Tried it, and there's 1 item so far [the 30GB OCZ SSD]. The other feed seems to be behaving itself now.
