I think lots of people are still using vB 3.0 version for a lot of different reasons. Personally I prefer it over vB 3.5 which is why I don't upgrade and even installed vB 3.0 from fresh, even though I could have used the latest version of vB 3.5 instead.
The problem is, if you archived the vB 3.0 section now. People requiring help with these hacks for vB 3.0 may decide to start cloning the vB archive section over to there own sites as open topics up for discussion to try and get help on them, without asking the authors permission to do so - seeing as help for them here would no longer be available from other members or the author himself.
Meaning the only option open to vB 3.0 users would be to open them back up on there own sites. If it was done as way to try and force people to ugrade. I don't think that would work. As some people have already stated they have busy forums that have way to much hacking done to upgrade, and there not going to scrap there busy boards just to install vB 3.5 - loosing thre hard earned members list!
Also keep in mind that many dedicated vB 3.0 series users here might also see this site as pretty useless to them then.
