I really really like this answer. I've been torn on rewriting my comments & deleting the account because I have some useful information, but I absolutely do NOT want reddit profiting from OUR knowledge and help for people anymore. It's entire success is built on the people helping other people
Though for some things I'm torn on reposting to kbin because they haven't been updated in a while or might not be accurate anymore
For example, I wrote a MASSIVE "returning / new player guide" for Vindictus, which is a very old MMO with a small community. It has been super helpful for a lot of people in the past, but as you know, MMOs update and change a lot so it's definitely out of date, but not entirely. Even if I gave the raw message and all of it's images to someone else to re-write the post, the community is so small and it would be hard to find someone who would even care. So it would be weird to just repost a partially outdated guide. Know what I mean?
Some other examples are niche within other games. So like for the game Control, I posted a guide on how to fix a bug for x thing. Or for Outriders, I posted a farming method for a resource or something
Do you have any advice for me?
Also, do you or does anyone else here know of a way that I can back up all of my comments and posts locally, like to a txt or some other text source?
