Is the JFK Lancer forum archived anywhere?

Post by doctorw
Did Debra Conway archive the JFK Lancer forum posts anywhere so they are
still available for everyone, or, did she (hopefully not) choose to just
let many years of forum posts and people's research (and their time) be
permanently deleted?

Ever hear of The Wayback Machine?

Ever hear of The Wayback Machine?

Thanks Anthony. Yes, of course I checked Wayback.com. (incomplete portions
and fragments of her Lancer forum seem to have been lastly
Wayback-archived over 18 months ago -- into Sept. 2012; with many of the
inter-post links to scans, documents, and photos no longer active or
displaying anything)

My question was actually more specifically with regard to Debra Conway --
to try to determine if anyone is aware if SHE has taken ANY responsible
steps to pro-actively accomplish any actions to preserve and still make
publicly available the many posts contributed by her members to her forum
for well over a decade. (or, she could transfer her forum archives to
another person, for the other person to manage on their still-active site
or forum)

Do you agree (or not) that we should hope that she has not just lazily
relied on some large, Wayback-type Internet corporation to (maybe, or
maybe not) accurately archive all of her members posts, scans, documents,
photos, etc?

The Wayback Machine does not work well for JFKLancer.

If you click on a JFKLancer post in the WaybackMachine it will tell you
that that post is not archived. The Wayback Machine cannot access the
JFKLancer database so all the WaybackMachine has is the html page but no
data.

I recall vividly the dying days of JFKlancer & the complaints I read about
the moderator taking a machete to contributor's posts, deleting some,
locking some where additional comments could not be made & moving some
around. Fellow by the name of Dealey, I recall, was causing all the
uproar. All of that deleting, locking & moving around by that moderator
may be the reasons those Lancer posts don't show up on the Internet like
they should? Whatever the case, the moderator tore that site all to hell
in a very short time & I stopped visiting it before it crashed & burned.
Pity too, there was some great research being posted & discussed. I now
make it a habit to copy & paste any website's threads I'm interested in
keeping into a Word document now that I know what's online one day doesn't
mean it will be there the next. Word usually picks up everything in the
thread, including the static photos but not always the animated gif's (I
had to save those separately). Windows snipping tool is handy for grabbing
illustrations & photos that won't save in a Word document.

I bet NSA has a copy of everything but I doubt that Agency would put any
of the old Lancer posts back online if asked. I read or saw somewhere NSA
has a complete copy of everything ever posted on the Internet in their
data mines. I believe that came from a Fox news program called 'Your
Secret's Out' that aired last year shortly after the Snowden disclosures
exploded on MSM TV news & print.

Have you ever met her? I have. I wouldn't hope for too much from her.

You seem to have met and talked to a whole lot of people there in your
parents' basement. Good for you!
