No idea if you guys have been approached about this, but the ancient Something Awful community is probably going under soon as its founder is being outed as a women beater. This community has been around for over 20 years with forums that are actively posted non-stop. Archiving this is probably a nightmare, but it would be a loss not to. [10:35] Let me know if anyone is interested in doing this. Many sections require an active membership to access and I'm willing to buy the account to do so, plus offer any assistance in explaining how things are divided, subforum priorities, and whatever else you think may be useful.

It's a ridiculous amount of content [14:12] I recall coming across a forum type of area in the early 2000s but haven't seen the forum bit as public facing since sometime around 2008 or 2009 or so?
