The current RSS has information that is, frankly, worthless in an RSS feed (1). It's old, it doesn't get updated and therefore there's no reason whatsoever to subscribe to it.

What I think might be more interesting would be an RSS of the last 25 postings in the forums. This way a person could simply check that via their mobile device or whatever and stay up-to-date on all the topics they're passionate about!

Quoting truth.

Agreed...from what I've heard alot of SC members read the forum like this even when they aren't on their mobile device.

As much as Quade has complained in the past about SegChat, he actually wants more involvement in it via RSS feeds.

I think things are looking up for 2008. Cheer up Plo.

Most of my complaints aren't about SegChat (the web site).

That is indeed, correct.

You're looking at the wrong RSS feed. The ones for the forums have been added to the FAQ:

Ah. Thanks for that. Maybe an update of the home page is in order then. It only shows the one I linked and it looked as if it was the only one. Thanks.

Also, is there a way to get a user customizable feed?

The forum index is the homepage. Where are you seeing the RSS feed linked to from?
