The old Roleplayer Guild RPs

[Aisling]

A few of us were chatting about our old RPs we did here before it went down. Did Mahz or anyone was able to find any of the old RPs and put them somewhere? We would like to know if there is a way we could recover some of our old character's history.

Yeah, I don't think so. There was the Wayback machine, when Guildfall first happened, but that's about it, and not everything got saved even then.

If it isn't on WaybackMachine or backed up somewhere on your own drives or w/e, then it's most likely lost to history.

I would try WayBack machine. I was quite lucky and ended up being able to recover like 3/4 of my RPs from pre-guildfall.

Of course, that was just the ones that were in the public forums. PMs were another matter.

...speaking of, you reminded me it's time to back up my RPs again, so thanks!

@RBYDark

Nobody created dedicated archives, so it is as said by others, lost to history.

A reminder to back up your shit, a bitter remind but a reminder.

I'm forever grateful to the folks who backed up part of the old old ass Bethesda Fallout/Elder Scrolls Fan Fiction Forums.

Good fun to see shit I wrote like 15-16 years ago. Sometimes I cringe and sometimes I feel just a little proud.

Thanks for reminding about the Wayback machine. Yes it is best to have a hard copy of everything whether it is RL or RP. If anyone wants to get hold of me or talk about old RPs or anything, I hang around on Discord. Here is the link:

I have lost my husband last June and I do go down Memory Lane often for while he did not RP, he had a great many suggestions and ideas for me to work with. He even named a few things for the RP World. His was my main muse and best friend in addition to the RL world duties that I now have to do. I hope to speak with a few people who knew and were in my RPs.

Does anyone have the link to the Wayback Machine?

[Dark Cloud]

@Aisling sorry for your loss, anyhow what link do you mean?

[Carlyle]

Does anyone have the link to the Wayback Machine?
