why you prevented us from accessing old site now ??? can't access archive for plugin support this new site is pretty useless atmm with support on plugins from what i seen half the plugins listed the creators haven't even responded about issues we need the archive for general support till something can be done....

The site is being migrated to a static instance, it will be available again soon.

can't even access data for plugins you don't even list here really ....

Nearly all plugins which were in working order are available, if unmaintained.  Keep in mind that all of the plugins previously available and currently available were made available to you for free. 

This is a community-supported site, which means that support is given at the discretion of others in the community and you are not guaranteed a response.

Much of the information in the archive is incorrect, no longer relevant, or poorly organized.  Despite that, we were recently given access to the old site and are archiving everything from the last 5 years, and it will be made publicly available.

a lot of the posts/threads from there are now archived so how do we go about reading them as need some info from their on certain plugins.

 I agree it would be handy as there is a lot of knowledge and solved problems in them,

Wulf, have all of the discussions on the old Oxide site been hosed? They come up constantly when I'm searching for info on issues to resolve, but they're all 404s now. Example:

https://www.google.com/search?q=rust+server+not+showing+on+playrust.io+site:oxidemod.org&client=firefox-b-1-ab&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwjfi9-ujdLgAhWNmeAKHe8XCr8QrQIoBDAEegQIBBAM&biw=1920&bih=935

Aside from having tremendous SEO value, these threads held a ton of useful content for Rust server admins. Probably a PITA, but is there any way to port them over to here?

I read somewhere they are going to archive them.

Please see the above replies.

Ahh, thanks man!
