Is the old forum still accessible? If so, how?

Niantic has been an utter clown show in my area the past few days and removed a whole bunch of legitimate Pokestops, including a half dozen or so that were falsely removed once before and that I got restored on appeal with a topic full of evidence on the old forum. I’m about to make an appeal topic for everything that Niantic falsely removed, so I’d like being able to link to that topic so I don’t have to recreate all that evidence again.

I found a link to the topic in question in an old message, but following it leads me nowhere.

if you have the link to the post on the old forum you can try the “wayback machine” to see if it was saved.

i think this might be it

Yes, that’s the topic! The images seem to be missing though, but hopefully it’ll still serve its purpose.

Yeah, clicking on the image links will open them. Just figured that out. Anyway, your assistance has been greatly appreciated. Now to get Niantic to put these back AGAIN after they falsely removed them AGAIN.

Seriously, you’d think they’d at least have some sort of internal label on wayspots like these that says “RESTORED ON APPEAL - DO NOT REMOVE”.

Seems logical… but there can be some edge cases where policies and/or information change over time

Wayback Machine can be iffy when it comes to loading images. Sometimes it can’t do it, other times it will load them fine, and sometimes it’s very sluggish.
