Every day, despite marking them as read, some RSS entries from The Daily WTF appear as new, unread items in the web version of newsgator. The only thing that appears to change from day to day is the comment count (which is obvious). The RSS feed is at http://thedailywtf.com/Rss.aspx While we're at it both the web and outlook editions choke on the 3leaf RDF feed title, probably because there are returns in it. http://blogs.3leaf.com/ This is a little annoying

If the content of the post changes, we show it to you again. We have no way of knowing that the change is something you're not interested in, so we show you the change. Perhaps they have a feed that doesn't include the comment count?
I was able to subscribe to the 3leaf feed. We don't show a title, because it doesn't have a title; it only has a description (which is meant to be the longer form description of the contents of the feed). If the feed were updated to include text inside its title element, we would show that.

I honestly don't think the WTF feed text changes, as Outlook newsgator doesn't exhibit the same behaviour. As for 3leaf, yea, the missing title is just annoying. The MS security feed did the same thing. Would it not be possible to offer the renaming of feeds, rather than have it as [Feed 12345], or fall back to the description if it's there?

NewsGator has an option to not show you changed posts. If you go into the Subscriptions dialog, click on the WTF feed, then click Edit. Then, on the Options page, see if the "Treat modified posts as new" box is checked. If that's not checked, then you won't see modified posts that you've already read. There is no comparable option in NewsGator online.
I'll log a bug to see if there's something we're done wrong with the WTF feed.
We have renaming feeds on our list of things already.

We have recently updated our Sync process. This was certainly possible before this update, especially if you were synchronizing NewsGator Outlook and NewsGator Online. I have WTF in my list right now and have not seen any issues for the last two days. So, let us know if this crops back up for you. Darryl Dreiling

Note it's also doing it in the Outlook version, despite having treat modified as new post off. The only thing I can see that's happen is both the date and slash:comment counts are changing, and somewhere that's being counted as a new post, despite the link staying the same (note there is NO guid)
