I rescued 195 of Elliott's smiles. Figured we could all use some on days like these. Thank you Ethan and Patrick.

FYI everyone, Aaron (or some crappy mod) seems to have deleted the Sorry Aaron thread off the general board...

The sweetaddy moderators have been removed, so I no longer have the ability to take any actions on sweetaddy like I first indicated.

Dammit. Also. Someone needs to save the memorial threads for Natalie Jane and MobyGrape. Two very amazing people who we sadly lost in real life.

so i want to save a thread that is 40 pgs long and so the saving the printable version that was suggested to me would take forever, is there an easier way to save things?

so i want to save a thread that is 40 pgs long and so the saving the printable version that was suggested to me would take forever, is there an easier way to save things? At the moment, I am still creating a complete mirror of the memorial forum. It is at almost 2 gigs so far. It would be quite a mountainous task to do the same for the entire board (over 3x as much), but I wanted to do what I could. If someone will start a list of the threads most important to people/the community/good times/sweetaddy history, then those could be mirrored in their entirety for sure. We need to organize together or something to make a framework of what is important to us the most, to save. edit: There's "only" about 300 pages on the old board. The pages could be skimmed through looking for those old loves a little at a time.

Sorting the board by Total Views might be the most efficient way of finding most of the threads that many people found to be worthwhile.

I would personally skip over some of the more personal large things like the many Random threads at first. Focus in on things like Larry Crane's Elliott's Archives and Unreleased Songs first that have long-term value to maintaining Elliott's legacy.
It'd be a good idea for everyone to keep in mind that while Aaron said it'd be about a month, there were no promises made, so it's a good idea to do these things in an order with the mindset of "what if we only had a few hours left to finish?"

That is a good idea about sorting by view count. Your latter point: Exactly. The only thing that we do know is that as of his last announcement it will be shut down and deleted. It's his board and he can decide to do whatever he wants to, in the end. I strongly encourage people to send me the threadlinks to the threads they want to keep! Even if you are saving it for yourself, others might want it too. I was going to mirror those first.

I'm trying to figure out how to only follow links in a certain way. The board is not separated from all the other boards, really, the link to a SweetAddy thread is like: www.blamonet.com/vb/showthread.php?t=179796 and a link to a gen board thread is like: www.blamonet.com/vb/showthread.php?t=179800See the problem? So, this keeps wanting to archive the entire blamonet. I'm trying to figure out how to narrow it down and keep it strictly to links on the sweetaddy forum.

I'm going to manually make a list of links to exclude then see how it goes.

Dont know if this has been posted yet here but we have a date for deletion:
"Update: On October 1st, 2009 the board will be completely deleted. This will not result in your accounts or PMs being deleted as BlamoNet isn't going anywhere. So please copy any content from the ES board that you'd like to keep." - Aaron

the one on the bottom right corner next to the one of him covering his eyes is a picture of his backside. its hardly a smile You either need a sense of humor or to be a girl to fully appreciate that smile. Does this help?

...what's with those free programs that let you download the whole websites...? it would be easy to copy/paste what's important once the information are all safe... but, then again, maybe sweetaddy is just too big for that...

...what's with those free programs that let you download the whole websites...? it would be easy to copy/paste what's important once the information are all safe... but, then again, maybe sweetaddy is just too big for that... the problem is that sweetaddy isn't actually separated from the entire rest of blamo. i kept excluding links that were leading back to blamo general (where it starts like a wildfire and then starts grabbing the entire blamo) but then i got stuck, it turned into a catch 22. i'd have to physically set it to only include specific thread id# and only specific post id #'s (which, would lead into the hundreds). however, the blamo ARCHIVE *is* actually separated. the blamo archive is contained inside a certain folder level. there are only about 5-7 links back to blamo general, from there, and so they are easy to exclude. then i just set it to "infinite" and let it go through every single page # and thread. when a thread is like, 30 pages long, it gets cumbersome to do it by hand. especially cause you dont know exactly where all the important parts are without reading through it.

Is there some way to bring the Blamo smilies here? I used to have a forum and I'd copy them all and just plug them in using my super admin powers.... maybe ethan could do that, assuming one of us helped him ? if the "i kiss goodbye" thread is still somewhere, we could even have the grouch again (i posted him in there).
