    Well I doubt this will go anywhere since its the least of our problems at this point but if its not completely lost knowledge the RSS feed for the Staff Post Tracker appears to have been off/broken since 2013(?) (and possibly somehow copied from Planetside 2.

    So the other Daybreak games that use this same forum system are Planetside 2, Everquest 1, and Everquest 2.
    These three games all have RSS feed links on their Staff Post Tracker:

    https://forums.daybreakgames.com/eq/index.php?recent-activity/

    If you go to their staff post tracker pages they have an RSS Feed link that goes to:

    https://forums.daybreakgames.com/ps2/rss/strss.xml
    https://forums.daybreakgames.com/eq2/rss/strss.xml
    https://forums.daybreakgames.com/eq/rss/strss.xml

    Now following that pattern I can then guess what our RSS Staff Post feed would be:

    https://forums.daybreakgames.com/dcuo/rss/strss.xml

    Now going to that RSS feed it is actually an RSS feed snapshot of the Staff Post Tracker from the Planetside 2 Forums from February 10th 2013. Its even titled "SOE Post Tracker" instead.

    Would it be possible for the RSS feed to be turned back on for the Staff Post Tracker?
    Would be nice for discord bots, currently I use rss feeds to auto post announcements/changelogs in our leagues discord.

    Also fun fact the H1Z1 (dead game) Staff Post RSS Feed is actually Everquest Landmarks from May 21st 2014:

    Thank you, I think you are now my favorite dev.
    I never thought a bug this old and inconsequential for most would actually get noticed and put in to be fixed.
