it be smarter if they rejected based on actually capabilities, rather than a browser string

Yeah... that's true.

urgh. if i knew that a site i visited did that, i'd be majorly turned off.
really, what a bunch of nazis. this is just petty no-girls-allowed nonsense.
At least let the page load* broken, with a disclaimer/explanation of why the formatting is screwed up. Better than no page at all.

*verb, not noun

Once HTML5 apps and SVG graphics are the norm, 90's browsers will go bye bye; not worried.

For IE9 (which should work fine), the page reads "Sorry, but this is the rough draft for RageChill. We currently don't support IE."

That tells me they care more about IE-bashing than providing functionality. Meh, seems like a publicity thing.

Yeah, I actually like some of IE9's graphic acceleration stuff.

IE8 pisses me off regularly when I try to run some fancy jQuery stuff.

Microsoft CRM rejects any browser other than IE.... so it isn't a one-way street.

you know how you can spoof your browser ID? it'd be curious to know if that site actually does render fine in IE.

When I was taking a few online courses, the site would only accept IE, so I just used a user agent spoofer to send that site an IE string and it worked fine.
