It’s been down a while. The forum software got out of date and stopped working on the host I use. I’ve thought to reach out to other AO sites like AOU to see if they wanted the content but I’ve been to busy to deal with it. If anyone knows the site managers there have them contact me if they are interested.
Meanwhile I’m going on a little archiving spree to let the wayback machine archive some of the topics that I find particularly interesting, funny or otherwise worthwhile Feel free to join me
I don’t understand what you’re doing. What I mean to say is we can request ARK to crawl and archive specific pages at AOFroobs? Doesn’t it do that already? I use ARK pretty often but I’m not a pro on available functions we can request of the ARK crawler? Does that make sense?
I’m down with saving things to ARK far more than loading things to Google Drive or Pinterest et cetera because I seriously dislike their unfettered and invasive company data mining models.
I started a tag Anarchy Online Community (hopefully to become an official ARK community). I think to qualify as a community a tag like that requires 50 uploads and maybe recognition granted by an ARK employee. Though I’m kind of unsure how it works. As an aside - I have no control over what gets added to the community tag, nor do i want any sort of control, or to act as a information gatekeeper.
For pure archival reasons I prefer not to use GitHub as a storage cache - It’s really more of a place for active code editing isn’t it?
I’m not thát great with archive.org either, so there may be better ways, but as far as I know I can’t request it to crawl the whole site.
If you go to web.archive.org, there’s an option “Save page now” where you can save a single URL.
Another option is just browing aofroobs through the archive, and whenever it doesn’t have a page you want read, it will offer you to archive it at that point.
I’ve seen the ‘save page now’ link. Good grief, I can be pretty thick at times. I’ve been trolling through ebook texts via the Public Library of India and the filter setup can be many pages of unalphabetized tag words including filters for the same upper and low case words.
Grats on the remodding My froob forum registration for Higain is stuck in the system and I’ve not received my confirmation email
I registered 2 days ago. No confirmation email as of yet. I can post there under another alias, but I’d like to make my AO fansite names to be uniform. So, in the scheme of things, this is kinda low priority.
