User Friendly, the Badger song, and RSS

[pne]

Since the (unauthorised) RSS feed of User Friendly doesn't work any more since Illiad was not happy with it, I had a look at the past few weeks of User Friendly on the site and found some funny "Badger, Badger, Badger, Badger" references.

Here are three:

• 2004-01-19
• 2004-01-21
• 2004-01-25

I also found this message by Illiad enlightening as he speaks about the whole UF/LJ/RSS situation in it briefly.

(I don't usually browse with comments on but thought I'd have a look on those three strips, and the subject line of that comment caught my eye. My goodness there are a ton of comments on each strip.)

Always a pleasure to be of service, ma'am.

The one thing that I don't understand about Illiad is that he always seems to get het up over things like this, and yet he never disables remote loading. I mean, sure, it's fair enough for him to not want people linking to his stuff and to want to ensure that he gets ad revenue when people view his stuff... but if he's that bothereed, I don't see why he doesn't take some action at his side, rather than individually for each case.

It doesn't bother me either way, since I don't read UF any more, and he is free to handle things how he wants, I just don't understand it.

What you say makes sense to me.
