Title: Preserve war2.warcraft.org data
Post by: {Lance} on December 03, 2014, 06:52:34 PM: Someone should go through this and preserve the different pages in case the site never comes back, archive.org isnt always reliable: https://web.archive.org/web/20140729163808/http://war2.warcraft.org/ (https://web.archive.org/web/20140729163808/http://war2.warcraft.org/) Dont bother with he forums piece, it wont go that deep and it filters out forums posts anyway, but the other pages should still all be in tact..... for now.

Post by: {Lance} on December 04, 2014, 12:51:13 PM: Mostly the pages that dont pertain to the forum. The tools downloads, history, strat pages, that type of thing. All of that data could be integrated into the RU site

Post by: Warchief Lightbringer- on December 04, 2014, 01:39:33 PM: I have some of it copied with a Web spider. I'll hand it over to mousey to integrate on ru on a menu...

Post by: GaNzTheLegend on December 04, 2014, 07:03:32 PM: Axo probably hasn't even updated that site since like 2000 anyways so I doubt much if anything has changed. You could always compare it to the archived site that Lance posted if you wish.

Post by: Delete mine too on December 05, 2014, 12:33:59 AM: PLUS the cache is allowing me pull some of my own work off the forums :) And waybackmachine is using an old snapshot of the war2 domain and you cannot open threads. Correct mine is from 2014 :)

Post by: Warchief Lightbringer- on December 05, 2014, 12:46:01 AM: I have forum threads downloaded like 1 month ago. Not sure if it will be 'openable' though. I didnot try to open it and forgot about it until tupac mentioned that.

Anything you can save from that cache would be appreciated.
