Old Jolt forums?

Postby The Remote Islands » Fri Sep 17, 2010 1:16 pm

I've been around for a while, but I only recently started posting on these new forums. Now I happen to be the nostalgic type, and I was wondering if there was a way to access the old Jolt forums to read them, and hopefully come across myself. I tried the official Jolt forum archive, and it said there were millions of posts but I only found less than a dozen threads! The Wayback Machine is no help either, it doesn't have much in the way of archives. What am I to do?

Look under 'Thread Display Options' (between 'Forum Information and Options' and 'Icon Legend' on the bottom) and select the time period you want.

It doesn't help any that Jolt's changed around their links and stuff. This is the current link to the Nationstates subforum: http://forums.joltonline.com/forumdispl ... tionStates

It used to be something like http://forums.jolt.co.uk/*etcetc*, but it seems they've managed to break all the old links, as I can't get any of the old forums.jolt.co.uk links to do anything.

Ah, thank you! I went onto the Jolt forums, went to the NationStates General forum and configured the options to show threads from the beginning. Funny I still have my old account, with all the posts and everything. Unfortunately, I can't seem to find a thing that lists them all for me, and i'm not exactly prepared to browse through all of that. Man though, I really was as naive a n00b as they get back then! Good thing we all learn from our mistakes.
