Same, here. Currently you would be required to scrape the website and extract the DOM elements from the HTML. And then parse those. I am very curious if we can get an answer from somewhere. I've found nothing in meta.

Same. Wouldn't generating all that extra shit take more CPU / bandwidth than the xml page? ._.

Would it be allowed to scrape bitcointalk? Because I think about developing a scraper for this. Doesn't make sense if it gets blocked after being recognised.

I'm happy to play this open and would love to see feedback from the admins either

a) about enabling RSS/XML option or

b) if I'm free to use a scraper and with which limits

I use it for my website http://blockchained.com bitcointalk top posts. Without xml parsing it won't work.

edit: the page I need to access is: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=.xml;sa=recent;limit=255

I really miss blockchained.com
It always was a goodoverview.

pls bring it back

What a shame that that board indexes are so clogged with rubbish, that we can't use them to look for interesting threads.
