Uploading the written reviews for Episodes that didn't get the video treatment?

Hi, way back when the video reviews were taken down off YouTube and before they were all restored, I used to read the old written reviews for the Voyager episodes. However, for years now, access to them was removed along with a lot of other written work such as the MST3K written reviews with the exception of a few that were re-uploaded onto your blog which hasn't updated in a very long time.

I'm curious to know if those old written reviews still exist in any form as I was unable to find them using google (though I did find the Unity arc). Specifically for episodes that never received the video treatment like Dreadnought and False Profits?

I don't know where the old written reviews were hosted, but if you have to original web addresses, they're probably available on the Wayback Machine at archive.org

I have tried to use the Wayback Machine though oddly I keep getting Robot.txt errors when looking for SFDebris sites.

Then the flag has been turned on for the site at the robot.txt. Won't allow archive.org bots to scrape archived pages.

To clarify: I turned it off because I used to have my address on the website. After a number of threats, I removed the address and bought a PO Box. But since it was accessible via the Wayback machine I had to turn off access. Sorry that a few deranged people has ruined it for everyone else, but I don't want to risk having my kids shot by SWAT teams because of some thin-skinned Voyager fan.

Wait, the Voyager fan base has people like that amongst it?

*shakes head*

Man, sometimes the human race really does need to be taken to one side and a word had with us as a species.
