Forum index / Privacy

The SQL source contains credentials and personal account data that have no place in a public historical archive. Those columns and tables are excluded.

Board scope: Most boards are open. Staff and adult boards need a password, are kept out of the sitemap and search, and are never indexed.

Public profiles

Profiles contain only a public display name, historical title, join date and activity derived from visible posts. They carry noindex metadata.

Analytics

This archive uses Google Analytics to count visits and see which threads are read. Google sets cookies in your browser and receives your IP address, which it uses to derive an approximate location and then discards. Search terms typed into this site are recorded separately, are never published, and are not sent to Google. Blocking the script, or a browser sending Do Not Track, costs you nothing here: the archive works exactly the same.

Further review

Automated removal cannot identify every real name, accusation, physical address or contextual privacy risk. A human review of the remaining flagged material is ongoing. If something here concerns you, please get in touch and it will be removed.
