Not a clue how easy this is to implement (I have zero experience with RSS), but I use RSS to keep track of forum activity and read new threads/posts without looking through the forum every hour. However, when a new reply is added to an existing thread, it would be nice to get an update to RSS, so I can see in my client (Thunderbird) that a new reply has been posted.
