Cool Modification - For Pusher Fans Only, Though If a subsequent owner of this site does not "buy the database files," it's likely the majority of the information on here that does not bounce up readily in the Google cache will be pretty much gone forever.
EDIT -- and, if you're smart enough to figure out how to archive your favorite forums on vBulletin, such as the ERA forum that contains
a wealth of information, you'll find that the Sucuri firewall that this site bounces through forces you to do it at a snail's pace because a fast archive is detected as a DOS and your IP gets banned until you slow it down.
