It's even worse when the boards mentioned are free hosted/being discussed on a free hosted forum since most of those which try (and often fail) to run a free hosted board never seem to realise you don't have to delete the board and everything with it outright just because it's not became the next big board. And there doesn't seem to be much about inactivity in the TOS of their providers...

That and the fact the Internet Archive only ever seems to have a 2% chance of having the interesting content archived means that trying to learn from topics more than a month old becomes both incredibly annoying and challenging.
