RE: Old HP Museum Forum
Because all I had to work with was the plain text of the old forum, yes, there's no way I'd have your credentials to log in. Also, because this is meant as a permanent historic record that acts as a time capsule, I do not want anyone logging in anyway, which is why I block the registration of new accounts.
I agree that seeing a better threaded view would be ideal. I don't know if it's possible to do that with the MyBB software, however. As you can see I did make an effort to keep all the parent-child relationships intact so it is theoretically possible, but it's definitely less than ideal with the current threaded view. I did notice a number (perhaps on the order of 1000) of duplicate posts in the old site, apparently caused by some bug in the archiving process rather than accidental double-posting, and I removed these with the new site. The spacing isn't always right in the message displays, but I haven't found a way around this. It seems to be a conflict between the HTML used for formatting on the data I scraped and the automatic formatting MyBB tries to do. |
