This was posted to my forums and I thought it was an important enough topic to deserve more attention:
What is this communities (sic) opinion on saving and potentially rehosting (breaking copyright) of RPG blogs, posts, etc. in the potential event of that contents host going down?
I mentioned archive.org on my reply in the forum. I’ve never tried saving something to the archive. Does it handle threaded forum style discussions well? That might be one complication for saving at least some sorts of things.
I’m not sure what you expect when you ask " Does it handle threaded forum style discussions well?".
Luckily, it’s really simple. It took me less than a minute to save this:
