<< I'm still pissed off that cdbaric caused Andy to stop Yahoeuvre from archiving posts. If he hadn't done that, we'd have a full, searchable archive on tap.>>
*Sigh*
For the gajillionth time:
cdbaric *did not* 'cause' Andy to stop archiving posts. What stopped him was what is known as 'copyright law'. If you were actually present at the time, you would know that cdbaric jokingly asked Andy to stop archiving *his* posts in mockery of the BGEs *demanding the same* of PJ. Within minutes, he retracted the request.
Andy soon realized that he *was* breaking copyright laws by archiving people's posts, and so wisely changed Yahouvre (although he is perfectly to let bar shoulder the blame).
Notice that *nobody else* is willing to host an archive? Remember Mikey asking for permission to archive posts here? Notice that, although the Colonel *has Merkey's posts archived*, he is extremely cautious about even sharing them here?
It is amazing how many contradictions you are willing to entertain.
Wanna searchable archive? Download the tarball, set it up and host it. Otherwise, stop trying to hang Andy's sudden lucidity on cdbaric. I'm surprised you haven't blamed him for IP-WAS removing content, finchhaven removing content, etc
