You can actually subscribe to an RSS feed of posts made by a particular user now.
How?
1 - Find the user, click on their Alias to view their profile page
2 - Go to the Find All Posts by this User link
3 - In the Tracker Options, click Subscribe...
Thanks!

We have two ears and one mouth so that we can listen twice as much as we speak.

The default in the community is Oldest to Newest. The only way to change that is to be logged in and set your personal preference (which I'm guessing you have already done).
I haven't tried this yet, so you can experiment, but.... I'm guessing that through RSS, you aren't logged in so it goes by the community default instead of your personal preference. I'm not sure if there is a way to wiggle around this and have the RSS feed think that you are logged in so it uses your preferences instead of the default.
I have two ideas I guess:
1 - See if the RSS feeder is OK with you adding this redirect to the front of the URL (I'm guessing this is unlikely, but worth a shot). For example:
http://sine.ni.com/niforum/niforum?requireLogin=True&forumDU=http://forums.ni.com/rss/board?board.id...
2 - See if the community would be OK with us changing the default to Newest to Oldest sort instead of Oldest to Newest.
If the first option doesn't work, we can talk about the second one or other alternative methods to wiggle around the login.
Thanks!

The default settings for this community are exactly as you described:
LIFO for Messages in a Board (LIFO by latest post to the thread)
FIFO for Messages in a Thread
Users have the option to change their personal settings:
For Messages in a Board - LIFO by latest post in the thread or LIFO by date the thread was started**
For Messages in a Thread - FIFO, LIFO, or Threaded
** This functionality was broken in the latest upgrade and we are working to get it back currently.
It sounds like we need to ask the community if we can change the default sort for the messages in the thread to be LIFO instead of FIFO and the RSS feed will do what you want.
Is that more or less clear?
Thanks!
