Fluxe tried to get the data from MGSF for ages but these free forum hosts sort of keep your stuff hostage to keep you there. MGSF was massive for Zetaboards and the last thing they wanted was us breaking off from them. It’s a big reason why MetalGearForums is self-hosted. Everything we do here is ours.
I’ve been working on making an archive of some MGSF stuff on here but TapaTalk (the new hosts that ruined the site) do everything in their power to prevent you getting anything off of there. So it’s time consuming and there’s no guarantee it’s even possible. It’s also not top of the priority list-but it’s definitely on my agenda. I’ll figure out a way to do it that works one day soon. But until then as st3ve said the old site serves as the archive. I did initially ask Fluxe if we could use the MGSForums domain for this site but he made the point that it exists as an artefact now and it’s there for anyone who wants to see it…even if it’s very hard to use lol
