Big-Ass(tm) Hive Posts Collection

primathon · modified

So, I dug up and dusted off my old Chemical Research CD, and on it, I found a LOT of old hive files, along with tons of word documents, PiHKaL, TiHKaL, plenty of precursor syntheses, 901 different named reaction schemes, a custom Rhodium archive that I'd made (and will remake soon), and lots of pretty pictures.

There are two main locations where the Hive forum threads are stored:
First one dates from 1/7/1999 - 5/20/2000 (600+ .txt files, plus images)
Second one dates from 1/21/2002 - 5/11/2003 (100+ full HTML files + images - these are the ones I personally cherry-picked, lots of good stuff here)

I'm sure that a few of these files are already archived on here somewhere, but I'm even more sure that a LOT of these aren't, as they're just from my private collection.

Is there a way to enable an anonymous FTP access somewhere on this site? I'd love to just upload all this stuff and have you guys pick it apart, as I don't even have close to enough time to scratch the surface.

Either reply here or shoot me a PM with some info on what the hell to do with all this information. I feel guilty hoarding it, it needs to be spread far and wide.

How many mb is it if you zip it up

primathon · modified

Just the forum threads? Less than 6 or 7 MB zipped. There's also a couple megs of pictures (not including the ones already in the threads), plus a bunch of .djvu and .doc documents, lab explanation videos, PiHKaL and TiKHaL, a modified Rhodium archive, and other miscellaneous stuff... It's under 100MB total, but a bunch of that is stuff that's already here. There's probably 50MB uncompressed total useful information, though.

Well, seeing as how a number of people have contacted me about these files, I'll just post the yousendit.com link:

It's around 7 or 8 MB, lots of threads, and some good images. There's more where that came from, but it has to be cleaned up a bit Razz

It's expired after 7 days or 25 downloads.
Could you please put it up online again?
I'm mainly interested in the movies and pikhal etc.

The movies and images will probably be uploaded later at some point. As for the books:
