Archives not working?
Is anyone else having trouble viewing the archived forum? Or is it just me?
Re: Archives not working?
Yeah it's not loading for me either right now. Another example of the instability which led to us to retire the board. Ugh...

Re: Archives not working?
So has this problem been fixed yet or is it going to be fixed?

I don't know what the hell is going on with them. There is a sort of workaround though. The Internet Archive Wayback Machine.

Re: Archives not working?
Great news! The archived forums are back online.
Apologies for how long it took to get this working again. Turns out it was just a corrupted server cache that needed to be cleared.
Enjoy!

Edit: also, I've decided to keep the search function disabled for now. Apparently the old forums are so large that any searches cause an enormous strain on our server. Since we share our server with other websites, it ends up impacting their performance whenever someone does a search on our old forum. Now that the forum is viewable again, hopefully Google/Bing will be able to quickly rebuild their indexes, which you would be able to use for targeted searches.

Holy cow. Are the people with 16 million posts on the old forums legit? That's bonkers!
Thanks Timo!

Re: Archives not working?
I don't know where you got the 16 million posts. But, all I can remember was that I only made probably less than 200 posts in the old boards and most of them were not very good. Heck, that was a time before I incorporated more and more commas in my sentence.
Edit: Wow, only 103 for me. All of them were probably pretty bad.

Sign in with your old account name and look at the members list... And there were so many people with 1K+ posts on that board that aren't even here now... Dang. AB23 only had 200ish posts...
Thanks Timo!

Re: Archives not working?
Hmmm, I'm thinking the top two posters in the old boards were probably hacked or something. There's no way I believe two posters had 16.7 million posts while Ryan and Jim were only at 23k and 16k posts, respectively.

Re: Archives not working?
exactly our point...lol
decay was milosalterbridge701 and had 500 something posts as well.
i had over 23k, but that was spanning the course of the site, 2005-2012, 8 years.

Re: Archives not working?
i had the most. dan deleted all of his posts and when he did, it showed that weird 16 million number and it never changed even when he came back and posted here and there.
not sure who that other person is, other than maybe an alter he had.

I like how I'm forever archived with the rank of "Freeloader" and zaz gets "Where Am I? Hey TomTom, HELP!!"
