Well, the great purge of 2001 is taking place as we speak. From what we can determine, any board (listed under Sci-Fi Channel - click at top right) with no activity for more than one month was purged (meaning all boards whose last post was made before 9-10-01 are toast). An example that proves this one month standard (which will probably be completely gone by morning) is board 813 on page 22 under Sci-Fi Channel.
As for Sliders, it looks like the only survivors under Sci-Fi Channel will be two random messages, the JOC Fanatics board, The Story Game, the main board and the archive (which is thankfully safe even though it was created in August). It looks like right now that this is just board specific, though. All individual posts to active boards (such as to the main board) are being left in place despite the one month standard. Whether this will remain constant...we'll just have to see. The Bboard Admin gave little warning of this purge tonight (obviously to keep people from saving boards by posting on them now)...so a post purge could come with similar lack of warning. I would hope they would follow their Archive model and save these main board posts at least, though...
