Forum URL: lawsuit.proboards.comHi, We have a board with Proboard until 2003 (free version). It's a old community not very active, but sometime someone arrive and talk about our past games making projects. One of my old friend send me an email few days ago; a new user just arrive. He found the board URL in one of game stuff. Firstable, I try to find the URL trough Google, but I cant. In past I just put LFQDTQLMNOPDP in search bar. At the moment, if i wrote inurl:"lawsuit.proboards.com" google found nothing. Is it something I can change to get indexed by google bots? Also, we have 3 boards with old threads not visible. In the main page we can see they have contents. But when we go on the section, they have no contents (well, the new member add something in the second forum, but olds post are not visible) lawsuit.proboards.com/board/10/dessinslawsuit.proboards.com/board/12/vos-projets-de-jeux-amateurslawsuit.proboards.com/board/4/demandes-emploisThank you!

laws44 - As far as Google search, we have no control over this. In short, a search engine (Google) indexes based on activity and relevancy. If a search engine does not detect any new content and the forum lacks in activity then it may deem the site as no longer relevant and will either lower it's ranking or drop it from the index as a dead site. (This Help Guide article may be of interest: Understanding SEO)
Regarding the three boards you referenced, unfortunately whatever content was there at one time is no longer available. After I looked at the issue I had our systems investigate as well and it appears to be a v5 conversion issue from when we updated forums from v4 to v5 about 10 years ago. For years after we did keep backups of pre-v5 forums for any issues that arrived from the conversion, however these backups no longer exist. I'm really sorry I don't have better news for you
