>For example the comment download script I use can't get the avaters of the users. Naturally this could be seen as a waste of space yet it feels like part of the soul of this comments are missing in a way.
obviously the easiest part to save are the texts shared in those sections in a pastebin and call it day but that´s not what you are looking for.

I believe that the old BO used a program in order to archive the threads that displayed the entire page. Not sure if the site converts can convert all the comments though...

>Additional issues are faced with the choices that have to be made in orgazation of this chaotic thread/project mostly run by one retard who doesn't know what he is doing.
did I have any clue back when I created the personal thread or the thread intended for edits?
Bronies are seen as a bunch of weirdos so given that a fan is seen as an autistic retard...hey, in a for penny, in for a pound. The stigma barely changes here.

>I see though an opportunity to contain to turn this into an orderly thread and maybe: threads, but right now a have a million different things on the docket (attempting to archive entire websites, continued Youtube comment harvesting, investigations of certain events) that will naturally produce a whole lot of catagories.
this sounds quite ambitious. I mean, archiving might not be a hard task at all but definitely, you are attempting to become a ""comment digger"". This doesn´t surprise me though coming from your part. You found out this chan out of your sheer curiosity so you had the manners prior to this project.

>On the more positive side: though a lot of IRL stuff has gotten in the way at times I have managed to continue to do some /go/ related pursuits and archiving.
I am certainly amazed that you have managed to keep up with several things at time despite the IRL conditions and concerns from yours. Nonetheless, this period might turn out to be the most fitting for looking in hindsight at past material and perhaps, this compilation displays the contrasting views shown from the fans over the years.

If you are so worried about having things in disorder, don´t worry. As long as you have everything mostly prepared and localized, setting all the archives in order can be done in a pretty short amount of time. Ordering this stuff is mostly a nuance. As for now, I wouldn´t express much concern towards that aspect.
