Downloading threads

[Bisgea]

There's this forum whose founder has decided to close down. I fear that he will delete it on Sunday. He does not want to give the admin account to someone else. So my question is, is there a way to download the forum, threads, and posts?

Software is available on the web for that if you search for it eg. http://www.httrack.com/

You can then save it to your PC for offline browsing

is the forum still open?
You can try what musket has said. other then that all you can do is just copy your post and past them to another forum or notepad?

[Bisgea]

Still open as of now but chances are good, it will be closed tomorrow. Thanks, I'll try that HTTrack thing.

What settings would I have to use to download just posts and images? Cuz using HTTrack, it also downloads pages linked by posts which are outside the forums.

May I remind you that double/triple posting isn't tolerated unless separated by 24 hours (Use the edit button)

The note pad thing sounds like a the best way.

Erm, the forum won't run otherwise without a admin.

However, try what the others said.

I don't know, but better to have more than less, you could check it's help page @ http://httrack.kauler.com/help/Home for answers or questions
