It sounds easier if someone could program a bot to do it.

No code needed. Just copy paste the posts from here and redo the links using the BBCode URL tag. Like Text

If any of you kind souls would help me, I would appreciate help migrating important threads from here to LibertyHQ forums.

I'm starting with the JJ special collections.

Why? I thought we agreed this forum was abandonware?

I have to wake up to comments like this?

This forum is the official, established, flourishing onsite forum for Mises.org.

Austrianforum is just another startup niche forum with par-for-the-course management philosophy. Not to diminish AF or Blake's efforts, but there's no way it's even remotely comparable to this forum.

Save for the lack of content, Austrainforum is in my opinion superior to this one in every way.

I will be making the LibertyHQ forum a lot more lively soon as I transfer some threads over.

Also, when people sign up they should shoot me a message so that I can add them to the appropriate groups.

The chat on AustrianForum = win (but maybe a fail for some others).

hashem:

h.k.:
I have the admin access to shut the forum down. I don't have the permission. And I'm acting on my own with another forum because this one is shutting down.

Any chance whomever has been given permission and instruction can just...not shut down the forums? I feel I speak for everyone when I say if the only reason is the malfunctioning problems here and there, then I'd rather have the established albiet malfunctioning, official onsite forums than no forum at all.

Hell, without knowing any details or whatever I cannot FATHOM an excuse for shutting the forums down. If the problem is malfunctioning tidbits, I will personally be the first to donate to a high schooler to get the forums in reasonable shape, because it really is that easy.

I have to concur completely.

Can't one of you rich dudes bribe mises.org with money? This place needs to stay open. New forums are nice but let's stick with the bread and butter we've come to love.
