Hello Everyone.
When Wizards of the Coast announced the closing of their forums in October this past year, I got to work.
I downloaded the ENTIRE FORUM as it concerns D&D and the D20 System.
This is the third time I've done this. I previously did it in 2005 and 2008.
Now, I need help sorting them all out. As you all might recall, while there was lots of good stuff on the boards, there was also alot of 'Hey, can someone send me a copy of....' and the like.
Anyway, here's the link to the website
http://www.secretsofthearchmages.net/index.html
The FAQ is here

About the program I wrote to do this is here
http://www.secretsofthearchmages.net/theprogram.html
And a list of all the threads in the project is here (in case you want proof)
http://www.secretsofthearchmages.net/Threadlist.html
The website is simple, clean, and to the point.
My end goal is for forums like EnWorld to be able to host the original threads online, in addition to my hosting them, as well as turning it all into a big set-up like the PFSRD or a Wiki.
And, you can see what I've already got out of it (since 2008) from just the Magic and Spells section (and some of the Epic and Monsters Lair Section)
here:
http://secretsofthearchmages.net/Results/Results/Results.htm
(Right now the project is locating threads, not processing them...)
So, come and and help out!
