Title: Old forums
Post by: twcclassics on September 29, 2010, 11:01:30 AM

On Monday, October 4th, my 2003 (http://www.twcclassics.com/forums/2003/index.php) and 2005 (http://www.twcclassics.com/forums/index.php) forums will be deleted from the server. After that, you will not be able to access them and I will NOT re-post them. So if you have anything you need from them, please do it this weekend!

Edit: These have been removed to save space.

I can, but I won't. The backup includes private information that I doubt former members would like me to share.

Yah, I don't have a problem with that (as long as it's for your own personal use). BTW, that must've taken days to do! :blink:
