So in prep for when it does go, what is the 2nd best car forum on the web.
I am a member of most FB kit car groups and non are as active or fun as this one.
The other worrying thing is if we can still get access to archive information from LCB. I know you can do a Google search that hits one particular
website, I am unsure if it works for the site if it is down though.
No you won’t have access to the info, you just get an error.
Problem is a lot of this sites value is all the info it holds. If there has been a question regarding getting a homebuilt complete it has been already
answered in here, probably quite a few times too. There’s also people on there with skills and knowledge beyond mere mortals and loosing access to
them is a huge loss. Simply changing to another forum won’t cut it. I did have a look at the Facebook site during the outage and could not make head
nor tail of it and it’s not a patch on a real forum.
It would be good to hear from the admin folk what the plans are, maybe an explanation of the issues too. Perhaps it does need a new home and owner, I
don’t know. The forum is still very relevant and extremely helpful to many, including me.
web.archive.org
It's the wayback engine that takes snapshots of webpages, almost everything is in there but not the posts wich is a shame, but pictures are all
there as is the memberlist etc... It's a static copy, so searching will be a pain but it's there, you can also ask to index a page if it
isn't, I'll try to het at least the sticky posts in there. If you think there's something else missing, you can add it too.
