CombatSim old EAW archive forum 1-6

[MarkEAW]

Does anyone happen to have this old archive of EAW post handy?

www.combatsim.com/cgi-bin/ubbcgi/ultimatebb.cgi?&category=7

I tried to contact the owner, but he won't reply to any of my e-mails. I wanted a local copy of the old board.
I was half way through reading all the posts of the EAW 1-6 archives, He has since removed these precous posts of EAW history and also closed down his newer forums (they are read only now).
The important stuff lyes in the older archive that the above link use to goto.

Thanks in advance if you have a saved copy of all those posts!

Some of this seems to be on the Internet Archive:

EDIT:

Hmmm, this seems to be the newer forum posts. I think i was back further. :)

Yes, sadly not all of it. Real shame if that archive is gone for good.

As far as the archive EAW 1-6 archive being lost, it may still be with of the original owner? ("Douglas? maybe, I forgot who it was for sure)
