Not sure what you're asking/suggesting.
What would the torrent be for, exactly?

If I understand correctly, and I usually don't owing to my poor communication skills, the suggestion would like to see a torrent of the entire mushroom cultivation forum or at least the best threads so the knowledge won't be lost but spread peer to peer forever. It would be something like a gigantic site rip that could be used for archival purposes in case shroomery ever goes down permanently. I'd seed it.

Exactly, thank you... words fail me sometimes. Or I try and be clever/funny and just come off looking dumb.

Still wondering about this. 
Does everyone understand what I'm asking about? I doubt it'd cut into anyone's DVD profits. Right?

That's like 250,000 threads...
Each one wouldn't be too much memory, but collectively it'd be quite a bit.
Otherwise sounds good.

Erowid has their whole website (?) on disk. Or so I'm told, every time I go through the rigamarole and load it up on my end, I just get a bunch of crappy files all out of order.

Why don't you just do it Oldham . Pick some good cult threads , use a screen capture to pdf or even a Ebook format like Epub or mobi then place it in a torrent file and post the link here . I will D/L it and seed it for 3 years 24/7 365 days of all 3 year . My home sever runs 24/7 and as long as the file is not to large I'm game . You could make a few with a file size of say 1GB torrent files and people could level suggestion for which threads to place in your next torrent. You can also edit out all the bull shit and leave in all the good info . If your up for it I could give you a hand with this if there is interest . PM me if your interested

I have about 2 gbs(?) on my HD...but have unplugged my PC from the internet to get a breather and just remember what life was like without 24/7 net connection.
I still am interested in seeing this happen though, and if I get back online with my PC, I'll certainly 'hit you up' with a link. 
Have been on BL's mobile version these last few months...awesome mobile view, BTW...but their crazed and dpotily enforced insistence on 'harm reduction' makes me all the more FOR backing up this site's encyclopedic knowledge.
Know what I mean?
