hello in a few places [1] I have found people talking about getting RSS feed for a topic or the forums... I looked around and i don't see anyway of doing this. Can you point me in the right direction? Does this even exist? Thank you for your time

Wouldn't that be very bad for the quality of forums? People will just write bots for replying to threads...

thats very true.

I would use it to track topics, because i don't much care for "Bookmarked Topics" function, also keeping an offline copy of my important topics would be nice.

There's an RSS feed for the news, but I know of no such thing for the forum threads.

I just saw a thread about this earlier today. One of the staff said that the functionality was there but unadvertised, and I remember viewing the forums in xml.

A quick search (automated or manual) of the suggestions forum should come up with the link for the forum RSS feed.
