We're working on an importer to bring the old comments out from Ogaming and put them on our pages. Our first priority on building this site was to bring over as much of the site data as possible, the next step is comments.

There's only a few caveats:
1- All of the posts are going to show up as being Anonymous, or as being under the person's name but linking to the Anonymous profile. This is because we can't track if usernames are the same person between the two sites, and most of the ogaming usernames don't exist here at all.
2- All posts regardless of quality will show up with a 3.0 Karma
3- They won't be indexed at first for the forum searcher, but they eventually will. Dumping all of them into it at once would make it unuseable for a while as it churned through, so we will have to index them slowly over time.
4- Comments will have a default subject, since ogaming comments didn't appear to have subjects.
5- Comments will be flat and not threaded, since ogaming comments weren't threaded.

We're importing quests first, since they're the most needed, it seems, and then the rest.

Rale or I will update you guys with progress as it happens.

We were going to do the in the order of demand. Mobs we can do next, sure, unless there's an outcry for someone else faster.
