Better ask either the original poster of the thread or one of the mods for help, then. OPs can modify and posts in their threads on the old boards (even posts by others), although everyone else is out of luck. I believe moderators also have those privileges.

Yea, that's been a HUGE help in porting over my Verold stuff... 

Just gotta go back and fix all the links once everything is moved.

:lol

My worry is that some of the handbook writers can't be reached for whatever reason, and that we will thus lose their valuable contributions.

Case in point:
-Treantmonk's Guides
-Dictuum Mortis' stuff
-All of the Summoning Handbooks

Will there come a point where we just port stuff over if we can't reach the author? Or do we have to allow it to be consigned to oblivion?
Too much sanity may be madness and the maddest of all, to see life as it is and not as it should be.

As long as you cite the source author and dont modify the work wouldnt you be covered until such time as the author made a request to remove the material if they wanted it gone?

I've only seen trouble mentioned when an author asks their work be taken down and someone decides to go against their wishes.
