Isn't the whole purpose of archives to serve as a look into the past? They're meant to be a repository of the past for better or worse. I don't really understand the second reason at all. In regards to the first reason, I'm fairly certain all the vile, hair-raising threads, comments, and so on would have been removed by the mods, wouldn't they? I think the worst thing would be some cringy stuff, so to say and if that's the core of HS reasoning, I find it rather amusing.Iirc Alex said before (and its mostly his decision, but the other HS agreed):
1) He genuinely doesn't trust people not to go archive-digging to drag shit up on others, especially those waiting in the wings who no longer play/like Neb and would throw it around Discord or whatever.
2) The archives represent a drastically different time in most cases and anyone poking their heads in who goes digging is probably going to get a negative impression. He doesn't want that, with Neb moving into a new era and away from Gmod.
Regardless of if I agree or disagree, some people in this thread have gone about changing his mind in the most ass-backwards way possible so its probably not gonna happen.
