Does the X-S RSS feed work for anyone? It used to work all the time but now Firefox fails to load it in the bookmarks tab

I get "Live bookmark feed failed to load". But if I go to http://feeds.feedburner.com/XboxScene it appears to work fine.

RSS feed finally started working

maybe an update about whats happening on the front page would be a good idea...

[chinmi]

yeah, no new news post since nov '12... we really need to know what happens to this once great sites for xbox hacking scene... even the "tutorial" link on the front page is never been updated anymore...

I think I just saw a tumbleweed roll by.

"hands tied" as quoted from a mod. ????

seems like all thats updated is the ads on the front page. probably because they are still paying. xs fell off, a while ago and probably theres a contract in place for those ads to keep running. such a shame.

For reasons I don't understand, this seems to be a forbidden topic. Soon enough we'll be scolded by a mod for even broaching the subject and this thread will be closed.

Gotta love all this action

[Gazc0igne]

it is a real shame.

back in the xbox 1 days this site was a real good place to come for xbox mods, tutorials and chat.

when the 360 was in development there was tons of topics and discussions on the new hardware and games.

i havent even seen a single post about the new xbox 720 (durango) hardware even though the specs were released weeks ago.

and the front page hasnt been updated in yonks.

I know I will take my lumps for this, but it's been about a decade I spent on this site and now it's a shame. Hard to find anything, nothing's updated, etc.

Still I check in every week or so waiting to see what's going on or what's going to happen.

Personally, and I know this is where the hand slap probably comes in, but I look forward to seeing this site finally fold. Compared to what it used to be and what it is now is just night and day.

I wish Xantium would give it over to someone whom could maintain the site and let it have a fresh start. I haven't always agreed with X-S and how it was run, but it's disappointing to see it go down this path. It was fun while it lasted, but now the fun's over and I think it's run it's course.

Not bashing anyone or anything, just it's time for XS to pass rather than just continue to become a former shell of itself.

Sux doesn't it?

We're still around taking care of reported posts, spam, and account suspensions behind the scenes, but that's pretty much all we can do at the moment. We were working towards some changes late last year, but people disappeared and that plan seems to have taken a dump as well.


People can still post news... just not on the main page.

This is the closest I've seen to a full explanation on the topic. But, I think someone can go much further with it.

Perhaps it is time that someone with the full knowledge of the situation share all of the details (and name names) with what's left of this community. Those of us who have held out hope for a recovery I'm sure would appreciate it. Besides, what's to lose at this point?
