What happened to the old ezboard site? I can access any of the old threads. There was some great stuff sitting there. I can still login with my user name from 2 years ago but the threads are gone. I tried it at work and at home and it made no difference. Did it get shut down completely from lack of use? I did a search but didn't see a topic on what happened.
yeah I tried to look up something today also and everything was blank. I thought it was me.. lol
Maybe there's some kinda time limit on displaying them? *shrug*
I vaguely recall not being able to see any threads last time I was there.. but I also vaguely recall beer being involved..
so much for it always being available
That sux....Didn't the MasterBlaster save a lot of it on his computer?
I would guess that it's a glitch with Sleazyboard, hopefully temporary. I just logged in and it showed that there were some relatively new threads, and that there were several pages of threads in each topic, but when I entered the topic nothing was there. I would think that if anything were deleted it would've shown no new threads and no pages.
Here's a hint:

Holy shiznit. Am I ever glad we moved over here now! We'd have lost EVERYTHING!!!
Wow that really sucks. MasterBlaster, if ezboard cant fix the old one do you think you could make your copies available somehow?
All 70MB of them?
That would take about 6-7 hours to upload on dial-up. :eek:
I've been trying (sort of) to whip up a combination of homemade programs to automatically convert the HTML pages to much smaller text versions, while saving selected links and references in each post, but I haven't played with them for a few months.
Still, when someone says "I seem to remember a post on the old board......", I do a search and try to find it.
mail it on a cd to someone that knows what to do with it.
Buy me a CD burner that works with Win95. :hick:
Wow I didnt realize it would be quite that large. Nevermind then. Hopefully ezboard will be able to fix it.
I have acouple of them that work winth 95... What kinda speeds you running
Soooo.... After reading a lot of that stuff i'd pose this question to Eric or Carm: Our boards here get backed up... right???
