All is lost. Lament, lament
I actually do have a backup of a lot of them (although I'm missing the ends of a lot of the fics), although I'm not exactly inclined to post them right now....Originally Posted by Chacho
OK, look, anybody who's got them, just send me all the archives of old BL you've got. I just want to look through the old conversations for something.
Hope Rides With His Godly Ronin/Cowboy Brother In Law
Hello, I understand it's been some time since this thread was active, but I was wondering if anyone has or knows of anyone who has a copy (even a partial copy) of the aforementioned archive. I'm looking for the work of someone who used to post here and don't mind the thought of plunging headlong into a mess of old threads to get my hands on it. Any assistance would be appreciated.

Assuming what you're searching for was in Fanworks, then your best bet would either be Mike1984's apparent archive or the Wayback Machine (or maybe someone else's unmentioned archive), since RB and anamesis said they've lost theirs and iirc Tangerang had only saved General Discussion threads (which he should absolutely upload somewhere goddammit).
Out of curiosity, what was that work?
Thanks for the response, I'll PM Tangerang and head on over to Dark Side of the Moon to try my luck there as well. As for what I'm looking for, anything by Accursed Scribbler, really.
Edit: Wayback machine seems like a bust; the earliest archived time is March 30, 2011, and that just shows the takedown.

Thanks for the tip; seems like I was pointing it at the wrong URL: http://nrvnqsr.proboards.com/ as opposed to the earlier http://nrvnqsr.proboards20.com/. Still, doesn't look like On the Crown or God from the Machine were saved.

I was once told there was a crossover with Hellblazer in the fanworks area.
I'm not sure if this is accurate info, if it is, was it something of merit or meh?
So Maiku has an archive of the old stuff? Interesting...
He mentioned that he does, yes, although he's currently having some computer troubles and suggested that others may have archives more complete than his.

If he stops having PC issues, I will ask Dallas if he can share them since I don't have Mike as a Skype contact.
Seems like everyone who had or might have an archive is bogged down in computer troubles. Nevertheless, your efforts are appreciated.

No problem.
Ancient Files of Drive Destruction
B+
A great curse that distorts the world. Scattered files from the Fall of the Beast's Lair, said to bring ruin to all that possess them.
I tried, but the orange is just messing with me. Can't wait 'till the curse visits him too.
Bumping to express interest.
Hop on #notes and enjoy hitting your head against the wall.
Mike was the only one with full archives but he killed them in the hostage standoff over his perma, hope is over.
Roadbuster and Darples?
