Archives on PF: Accessing Old Posts and Data

  • Thread starter Tog_Neve
  • Start date
In summary, the conversation is about the availability of posts on the forum Physics Forums (PF). The speaker is trying to find older information on the forum but notices that the online archives only go back a certain amount of time. They ask if all the PF data is still available and another user confirms that it is, with a $20 donation for the complete browsable archive of PF2. The conversation ends with a reminder to check private messages and take breaks from writing.

Does PF still have all the posts on CD available?
There is some older information that I was trying to find again and I see that the archives online only go back so far...and I think it was much longer than that...
So was wondering if all the PF data is still available somewhere?
