    I created a new forum called Ford Industry News which will contain RSS feeds with news about Ford. I also created a new user, Mav.bot, to populate the forum with the RSS feeds. This is an automated user that will submit new articles every 12 hours.

    Please take a look at the forum and let me know what you think about it.

    I have a question, I tend to always check the forums by selecting "new posts" is there any way to block content from Mav.bot. I tried added it to the ignore list but they still show up.

    That's really cool! Looks like I can take that feed off My Yahoo! now, since I can read it right on maverick.to. (y)
