I have an idea which could be useful for some users. I think there should be a packed version of board (for example all messages from one month) - so anyone could download it and read offline. Also - this eliminate a problem with too many messages (after several months there could be too much messages - so getting to that which we need could be very difficult).

I agree with you too.

But, we have no time to implement that hack in this board. Please, tell phpBB team (the creators of this board) to consider implementing such a good thing in their board, as we use their system.

If not possible, we could consider doing it in an ugly way - just querying the database and writing the records to a file. Although it would work, I think it is not the best way...

Yeah - I'll contact them. But tell me how to do that. The links below doesn't work (maybe only in this moment). If you have mail to them I'll be glad if you give it to me.
