Casting about my old links, I found the original Keenspot Wapsi Square forum was still online!

http://forums.keenspot.com/viewforum.php?f=70

This form ended with the move to Blank Label comics as I recall. Somebody had mentioned skimming the older forums for listing on this new forum, so here ya go!

Well, technically I was talking about attempting a merge with the old Blank Label Comic forums. I'll have to pull a copy of the database, nuke everything _but_ wapsi (maybe a couple of the generic topics), nuke most of (if not all of) the users, then try a test merger or two.
I'll get a life when it's proven and substantiated to be better than what I'm currently experiencing.

Ah! Well good luck then. At least you won't have to sift everything through Archive.org first, from the sounds of it.

Brave man, I did something similar years ago for my personal forums, and I had less than 300 users to deal with there. Good luck!!

Just as well. Archive.org is almost guaranteed not to have a cache of the file you want most.
