This forum's days are probably numbered. Could a mod PLEASE create a backup dump of all public threads and publish it?
It would be a great loss of knowledge for this forum's contents to just vanish. The level of discourse here is far higher than that of other drug forums. We need to save a copy.

I don't think this forum is going anywhere, but to back it up is a good idea just in case.

I get the feeling the forum's days are numbered. I hope I am wrong.
Perhaps a mod could shed on light on the future of the forum?
I hope at least that regular backups are being kept off site in case it ever goes down without warning. People are using it to coordinate buyers finding sellers so technically it is fair game for law enforcement.
It would be a great loss to history if the contents of this forum vanished. The Silk Road will go down in history as the first great market of its kind and if these discusions are lost then history will suffer.

A few people are archiving it:

We ask this right after SR went down. The MODs don have back end access and can not do anything to backup more then users crawling the site.

Does anyone know where the archieve is of the old forums?
