an Idea for archiving posts.
i was thinking about people who are requesting the archiving of old posts. and i have come up with an idea. this i have no use for, and my host is broken. anyways, you could add a column to w3tposts and name it archive or whatever. that could be the field where if archive=1 the post would be archived. everynight you could run a cron script to check for where archive = 1 and it would use lynx and go to the page and save the output to /announce/12.php and in postlist and whatnot the query would go something like if archive = 1 the post goes to the made page.

also check this out, THE FIRST W3T POST EVER!
http://www.wwwthreads.com/php/showflat.php?&Board=questions&Number=1 and even back then people were requesting an email to forum gateway.
