The vB1 hack forums are only viewable by the staff. When Stefan says 'archive' he's talking about our private archives.
Then I would consider that more than just being removed from forum home
Glad I voted a wholehearted "no" a little while ago then. Theres still hacks in vb2 that are useful I have just updated one used another that also has v3 info in the thread, and can see another that is sat not doing anything, waiting to be lifted.
Again, I would not remove v2 related categories until JelSoft stops allowing v2 to be downloaded. Once that happens, I do not think anyone can really argue that it should be set read-only for a while and then archived.
