Here’s why: + +1\. Starred articles are not purged.\ +2. Purging is done based on article import date internal to tt-rss which +could be different from the date specified in the original feed (e.g. +article has date 01-01-1970, but it was imported today).\ +3. When tt-rss sees articles still exist in the feed it bumps the import +date because otherwise the articles will get purged and reimported +periodically causing annoyingly reappearing duplicates. This is mostly +relevant for rarely updated feeds.\ +4. Purging is performed when the feed is updated hence disabled updates += no purging. + +Please see these forum threads for more information: + +- http://tt-rss.org/forum/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=792 +- http://tt-rss.org/forum/viewtopic.php?f=9&t=560&p=2649&hilit=delete\#p2649 + +You can see article import date if you mouse over displayed date in +tt-rss web UI. + +Related question: + +### I like to manually archive or delete articles and I get duplicates.
