I remember asking this awhile ago, but I don't recall getting an answer, so here I go Is there a way to save entire threads? Like you can save fanfics to your computer? I really want to save all the RP's.

Sorry, didn't see the question, not sure where it was. Had explained that last year already - back then, you could chose the 'print' option, which turned the whole thread into one page, and then save it. But the print option seems to have vanished since the switch to the new version, or am I just too stupid to find it?

I can't see it any more either, so I don't think you're too stupid to find it.
I'm not too keen on the new layout anyway. I prefer the original, without the bar that appears when scrolling. That really irritates me.

Oh, glad it's not just me, it irritates me when I can't find something that was clearly there before!
Nahara, then the best I can come up with is trying to save the whole page, if necessary as html document. For shorter threads, that would work, though not exactly for the long ones like the Pet Peeves thread, as you'd have to save every page of the thread separately. Sorry, but I can't offer any more possibilities, save Willy gets through to Point Given, gets full control of the boards and can somehow find a way to restore the print function.

Okay then, thanks for the suggestions! If it comes down to it, I'll just copy and paste every post. (Which will take FOREVER for the Uprising RP, which is what i really want.)

A bit too much work, I'd say. Just tested it and could easily save the whole first page with all posts in one go. If you can't do it, then in the worst case, I can do it and email the files, but I hope you manage yourself. Good luck!

Where do you see the option to save a whole page?

In the browser options. In Safari (which I use at home), I have the option to save the currently open browser window as webarchive document (basically html). At work, I just tested with Firefox - there the same function is available, or I can chose to print it and then check the option to give it out as a file, which should be storable.
