what happened to Tele-Psycho-Babble?

Posted by pseudoname on December 12, 2005, at 10:09:33

While I was researching about Babble for the Wikipedia article, I came across links to the Tele-Psycho-Babble board. It was for posts about online psychiatry. The redirect link is dead, and the address for the board says "YOU ARE NOT AUTHORIZED TO VIEW THIS PAGE".

What happened to it? The redirected discussion was pretty interesting.

If the board can't be resurrected, then could those threads be put back up in an archival format? Like the way we display every message in a thread – without a "Go to form" button. Please?

It didn't take off, so I deleted it.

There wasn't interest...

That's too bad. *I'm* interested... ;-)

I've since found some of the posts (but not all -- quite a few gaps from one day's snapshot) at Alexa's Internet Archive. The discussions seem pretty good; very *rare* topic.

You do so much, Bob, I don't want to be importuning about this, so I'll just say that if you did put up Tele-Psycho's threads in an archival format, it'd be a unique service. The audience might be small, but they (we) can't get that particular sort of discussion anywhere else, I think...

In any case, thanks again.

I'm always interested in archives.
