Y U DISABLE OLD FORUMS

But seriously, wouldn't disabling new registrations be enough?

I know it is old, crappy, everything is buggy, and is hard to navigate through the flame, the whine, the annoying and the irrelevant. But I was able to find useful info there (e.g. I don't remember if SoundDevice=WaveOut or SoundDrivers=WaveOut was the magic setting for my old machine).

A lot of stuff from the old forums should be migrated to the new wiki, but it is not only tedious, but impossible now.

The base url is fucked up. :( Most likely because of a forum setting pointing to www.stepmania.com instead of old.stepmania.com. Can you please fix that?

Made a greasemonkey script for it meanwhile:

// ==UserScript==

// @name Old S/M
// @namespace ymna
// @description Fixes urls temporarily
// @include *old.stepmania.com/*
// @version 1
// @grant none
// ==/UserScript==
var links = document.links;
for(var i = links.length - 1; i >= 0; i--){
var link = links[i];
link.href = link.href.replace("http://www.stepmania.com/", "http://old.stepmania.com/");
}
console.log('links done');

var styles = document.getElementsByTagName("link");
for(var i = styles.length - 1; i >= 0; i--){
var style = styles[i];
style.href = style.href.replace("http://www.stepmania.com/", "http://old.stepmania.com/");
}
console.log('css done');

var base = document.getElementsByTagName("base");
if (base.length > 0) {
base[0].href = "http://old.stepmania.com/forums/";
}
console.log('base done');


It's crap but I was able to login and stuff.
