• Is anybody archiving anything?

FP's shutting down in less than 24 hours and there's about ~15 years of content that's yet to be saved. Maps, models, screenshots, zingers, all that good stuff. This wouldn't be a problem if posts here would migrate to Knockout but I guess that's not a top priority for Garry. I really don't wanna see this site go up in flames with nothing left to show for it a decade later.
I mean, Archive.org has basically done that for us?
Manually you mean. Archive.org exists but it doesn't mean it automatically saves all pages. We need to archive what we can if Garry won't do it.
If you want to help, you should help Archive-Team: Facepunch Forums
Sam Za Nemesis was archiving using his own script, but I don't know how it's going right now. It may have stopped during one of the short outages. I may archive too but since I dunno when itll vanish im not sure
I'll archive this page, for a diamond

There's no official archive being made that I'm aware of. That codeblock is this thread in JSON format. To show that it's easy to archive threads. You need to append ?json=1 to the end of the threads.
