Downloading the entire forum was discussed a few years back and it was generally agreed not to be a good idea for several reasons, a prime reason being the server load/bandwidth requirements would be very detremental.

Not a good thing to do imho.

cheers

We had two or three archives at the german forum.

Agree with rsts, but also agree to maintain threads and not to loose it. :roll:

I was hoping to see if they were still in the WayBack Machine, but nope. :(

Bugreports get removed from time to time if they were fixed.

Threads don't just "vanish" from this forum.

If the only links you noticed "missing" are bug reports, Freak answered to that: "Bugreports get removed from time to time if they were fixed.".

Probably a good idea, I would say.

Yes, but the paranoia consists in the fact that:
- no warranty for those bugs have been fixed.
- those bugs are susceptible to wake up in future versions.
- Nobody can remember those bugs to be fixed.
Can be more.

Why Fred invented the '[Done]' word? :wink:
