>no backups
Thanks /b/. Discuss.
>>26436559
literally has me furious
there are so many anons on this board rn that need to be proven wrong but i cant dig through the archive to have them btfo
>>26436559
What kind of retard doesn't have backups?
>didnt just give /vp/ to fireden who already has /v/ and /vg/
JUST
>>26436559
>blaming /b/
>implying you weren't expecting that
Spotted the newfag
>>26436559
Didn't this happen a long time ago
>>26436858
yup now its happened again
>he archived /b/
>archived /b/
>archiving /b/
He archived /b/.
We may have had the literal biggest retard on 4chan in charge of archiving /vp/.
>archiving /b/
>no back ups
what an idiot
Are there any threads currently in the archive that we need to screencap in order to preserve them? We must save what good we can.
>>26436858
>long time ago
Foolz died rather recently too.
>check the list of archives I used to use around 2014
>only 4plebs is still active
Why are the people who run these archives so fucking retarded?
>>26436886
It sounds like a fruitless endeavor doesn't it?
Unfortunately I think he's obligated to considering some of the shit that happens there.
>>26436858
At least we were lucky that foolz had somewhat recent backups, and some anon from another board had the gap archived.
But this time it looks like things are truly lost, unless we find that anon again and hopefully he's still archiving.
>>26439753
Maybe, but if they repeatedly post CP and he knows it, the fact that he continued to archive it without routinely checking for and deleting said CP while at the same time not backing up anything, he is literally the most retarded retard ever to exist. The fact that he is able to type the sentences on the site explaining the problem is a miracle in and of itself.

this archive has threads up to june 10 2015
so, RIP threads from june 11 2015 to may 2016
>>26436559
I don't even seen the point for moderating posts in the archive section unless if it's a federal offense like child pornography. I didn't even know the archive section was going away.
For those of you who are willing to navigate the shitty layout, the following website has stuff archived since late February here:
https://yuki.la/vp/page/1
It's not the best thing in the world, but it is something. It should at least be possible to find some SM related threads with enough determination.
>>26443509
The 4ch be backup has threads from after desustorage was founded to February of this year.
>>26443618
It works nice if you still have the original thread links in your browser history, so you can just copy the thread number over. Otherwise it's a fucking mess.
Fuck /b/
I know the admin should've known better, and kept /b/ contained, or just executed it, but really is /b/'s fault!
Whoever makes the next archive better make a backup
I get these sort of terrible news on the day i have an exam?
How the hell am i supposed to concentrate now that i am in grievance?
>inb4 foolz's carcass is burned too
>>26436808
it says the cause was CP, so it was clearly /b/
>>26438514
what killed them?
>>26436952
Are you talking about the built-in 4chan archive? cause the real archive is long dead
Don't think there's anything, no
>>26438564
They probably don't hire any help, which i bet is making things even harder to keep up with
>>26443509
better than nothing
>>26443618
whoever makes a new archive should take data from there, and foolz to patch things up a bit
who goes through archives
>>26436559
Let this lack of archive unshackle you free from your obsession with the past so that you may stand firmly on the present while looking forward to a brighter future.
>>26444871
Smart people who lurk before speaking
>>26443975
>whoever makes a new archive should take data from there, and foolz to patch things up a bit
You forgot the 4ch be archive for the Oct 2015-Feb 2016 stuff
Who gives a fuck? If this was /mu/ or /co/ that regularly have sharethreads and comic book dumps I might understand the grievance, but /vp/ has nothing worth saving unless you're a raging fanfic autist or you are looking for ebin owlfag posts to add to your little BTFO collage
fgts was so unstable anyway, whoever was maintaining it was probably more busy jerking it in some irc
>>26444914
But you can lurk through the live site, and it has its own archive, though not as extensive.
>>26444991
This, I don't see the point of looking through archives other than the reasons you listed, especially for /vp/
12 days and still no new archive. Is nobody seriously going to take it up? Will I have to?
>deathly silence
>>26445688
Please do.
And only archive /vp/.
>>26444991
I mainly used the /vp/ archive to look up furry porn dumps after they were deleted by mods.
>>26444991

I did it so i didn't have to ask where a meme came from
I did it to see how normal a certain topic was. Like, i knew the goodra thing was big while i was away, but there was a lot more spamming than i thought there was
sometimes i even did it to see earlier threads i posted in
>>26445688
Well the guy didn't announce that it was dead until today
he also said there's a slight chance it can be restored, so i understand that some would want to wait
But it'd be great if you did
Especially if you
1 keep /b/ off of it
2 make backups, even if not for every single thread
3 if you only don't archive threads that were bumped off the board with no comments, that's totally alright
4 It's understandable if you can't but it'd be great if you stored the data from 4ch, foolz, and yuki archives
>we can never relive post 001
>we can never relive the BW reveal hype
>we can never relive Hoenn cconfirmed
>we can never relive the past 6 years
Why even live?
I went looking for some thread yesterday. It was gone. Now, I can never check that information again. This isn't the spaceage future I had once envisioned.
>>26446206
>4ch, foolz, and yuki archives
What about moe? Did he ever figure out if his backups were kill?
>>26446452
>we can never relive post 001
you new?
>isn't the spaceage future i had once envisioned
we're not even in the spaceage yet, no more than we were when you were born anyways
give it another 5 years and we'll certainly have a stable archive
>>26446467
nope, it's officially dead for months
>>26436559
good
>>26446543
>nope, it's officially dead for months
Well, yeah, the page says that. But it also said something about potentially having a backup. I was holding onto that hope.
>you new?
Not talking about a screencap, man.
>we're not even in the spaceage yet
T-That's the joke.
>give it another 5 years
Because these past 5 years proved to be so full of change, right? Surely another 5 will propel us towards the stars.
>>26446582
>hope
nope, i googled around and founda reddit postfrom 7 months back with a screencap of the official statement
Though now that i actually read the rest, it seems he did officially release the data from there, hoping someone could take use of his storage
you'll find it here: https://archive.moe/dump/
though i don't know anything about this sort of stuff
>not talking about a screencap
well, then you didn't have the posibility to relive that day for a looong time
>Because these past 5 years proved to be so full of change, right? Surely another 5 will propel us towards the stars.
err
>give it another 5 years and we'll certainly have a stable archive
>we'll have a stable archive in 5 years
As for space age, i'd say give it another 10, maybe 20, or even 40
Oh, I was just about to check the archives for those MXC threads, too.
Anyone have a screencap of one?
>>26436559
Fuck /b/
