(it was on the wrong board and OP was begging)

I didn't think about the begging angle. That explains why it was trashed rather than moved.

You may have been able to recover your post from drafts too.

I didn't realize they were saved for 7 days. Thanks for the tip.

It saved me a lot of time rewriting a post in a thread that got trashed yesterday.
I even Merited that post. I did report the topic (it was on the wrong board and OP was begging), but it did have good posts. See https://loyce.club/archive/details/topic_5264143.html

Yesterday, I created LoyceV's Topic Details: highlight deleted and edited posts (forum wide):
Short version:
Get a topicID you want to see, for instance 5145594.
Insert the topicID into the following link and post it on any public board on Bitcointalk: http://loyce.club/archive/details/topic_5145594.html
Wait a bit, then click the link!

Viewing unedited/deleted posts
Question: would it be useful to add links from all archived posts to the other categories (and the other way around)? I can quite easily update the "members" and "topics" category, but updating the "posts" will be more work.

There are only 100,000 active users.  Don't need to recheck posts made by inactive or banned users.
That could actually work, but it's still a lot of scraping to do. I won't do it, even if the average user has only 200 posts, that means scraping a million pages on a regular basis. With 5 seconds delay, it takes 2 months to find changed posts.
Considering how much I scrape already, I don't think this is worth it.

There's no way for me to know which posts have been edited. I'd have to check all 50 million posts again.

Millions more posts added:
I have now archived the first 35.5 million posts, all available online. This included posts made in topics created until April 24, 2018 and currently fills 43 GB.
Example: my first post!

See this quote on how to use it:
Sneak preview: http://loyce.club/archive/oldposts/
How to use:
  • Find the msgID you need. Let's use 28228
  • Remove the last 5 digits from the msgID to get the directory name (if there are less than 5 digits, use 0): 0
  • Replace the last 2 digits of the msgID by xx, and add .html (if there are less than 5 digits, use 0xx): 282xx.html
  • Add "#msg" and the msgID: #msg28228
  • Put everything together and go to http://loyce.club/archive/oldposts/0/282xx.html#msg28228

Limitations
  • Currently, the first 2.1 million posts are available.
  • I'll scrape the first 5.21 million topics and all posts in there.
  • That means I'll archive 53.36 million posts, this partially overlaps with my scraper for new posts.
  • This is a one-time thing, I won't update it with newer posts (I scrape unedited versions for those).
  • The time "scraped on" is Amsterdam time.

If no username is mentioned, it's either "Anonymous" or "random". I forgot those exist when I started scraping, and it's not important enough to start over.

This bug is not fixed yet:
I found a bug (which I'm posting here as a reminder to myself): Posts on the עברי (Hebrew) board don't show up. Example: this post is missing, while it exists.
I'll see if I can add them later. I think it has something to do with the right-to-left writing, even selecting text on that board doesn't work as expected.
Update: عربية (Arabic) has the same problem.
I'll re-scrape these boards after finishing scraping all posts.



Todo:
When I have the time, I'll create something to classify all posts in a requested topic as "unedited", "deleted and archived", "edited within 10 minutes" or "edited after 10 minutes". But that will only be for one topic at a time, you can't easily check all posts.
Another Todo: I should create this per user, that could prove very useful. Deleting a post would make that post stand out more!

I only archive the original unedited post.
Ahaa got it, it means you start browsing through all the new posts posted on this forum, then archive it.
There's no way for me to know which posts have been edited. I'd have to check all 50 million posts again.
An impossible idea if I want to browse 50 million posts. There is no way to browse through them within seconds  Cheesy I had a wrong thought here. Yesterday, I was on another forum, when I edited the post, the post ID was changed. But I just checked, it doesn't happen on this forum  Cheesy We can skip my idea now  Cheesy

I have a small question here, hope you can answer it  Cheesy I have a habit of publishing my post early, then making necessary edits, such as updating information and data. This process can be 1 time or 2 times, it can be 3 times or more. So, are they all stored? Or just the original post is archived?

I think it would be interesting if all the edits were saved  Cheesy Have you thought about it yet?

Update: you can now use TryNinja's site to search most posts created since June 2019:
- Since I'm already scraping and saving posts, I'm also providing a website that lets you easily search for posts with filters (author, text, in X topic and date range) and share the scraped post so you can send to someone (this original post, for example) or even archive it. I cleaned the database to make some changes and release the bot, so posts just go as far as May 14th. But I have enough hosting and space for at least 1 year of posts (and then I can renew), so you may be able to use it better in the future. Edit: now with +2,5 million old posts from loyce.club

You can use it here: https://posts.ninjastic.space

Post is in the link I just gave you, and there were no edits of that post, that I can see. Maybe you meant some other post and wrote wrong message ID?
I also thought I was wrong somewhere  Cheesy
I have found it following your instructions. From the list you gave above, I tried reading each post behind my post. But there are no post that contain content that I need  Cheesy The bot announced, it always works right whenever someone quotes my post or mentions me. But now I can not find. Maybe it's from my side  Roll Eyes Anyway, just a curiosity, I think I should ignore it  Cheesy Thank you very much!

Hey Chuck, are you sure that's the correct topic ID? If I am not mistaken,  that should be Wolfbet signature topic and this post
http://loyce.club/archive/posts/5443/54439447.html
The ID of topic is exactly. That means the article I need to read has been deleted  Cheesy I haven't read that post, but I know it mentioned me because I received a notification from the bot. Some first characters were quoted by the bot and I found that it mentioned me. I also know that it is made by Zwei. Can you help me find the deleted post?

Hi LoyceV,
It's me again  Cheesy There was an edited post that mentioned me in it. I have not read it to the fullest yet. So I am very curious. Can you help me to search it?
If I'm not mistaken, it is in the subject whose ID is 5244041 and #msg54439447.

Well, that's a first: I censored data
The credit card info sale is not good. pointed me at this post: http://loyce.club/archive/posts/5417/54178004.html
I didn't check if my webhost allows it, but censored it anyway.

Update (April 23, 2020): I received a PM (I'll keep the sender private, so sorry, no credits) about http://loyce.club/archive/posts/5428/54281329.html, which is now censored too.
And another one: http://loyce.club/archive/posts/5436/54364367.html
Editing out all personal data is too much work, so from now on I'll just delete their entire post.

I could be wrong but I think that's only valid for the posts that have both latin and arabic/hebrew alphabets.
Maybe. I currently have a few months of scraping to go, after that I'll re-scrape those boards and replace all posts in my archive by the freshly scraped ones. I still have to figure out what exactly I have to change for this.

A suggestion... Have you thought about making a browser extension? I think it would be nice if we could access the archived posts directly from the forum's posts instead of having to manually check every post.
I'll take your suggestion to [BETA] BPIP Extension - user info add-on / extension for Firefox, Chrome, et al. I'm not making any browser extensions myself.
