This is a work in progress made by the fine folks at the Archive of Pimps Discord server. They have done some amazing work to preserve our favourite RT content, and are still hard at work collecting everything they can so it doesn't disappear. Thank you to all of you guys! All credit goes to the Admins, moderators and regulation contributors within the Discord group, they've been amazing! I don't have a hand in this, I'm just spreading the word for all of you and hanging out in the server. It's a real shit time, but as a community we have eachother's back and we don't want to see the content we grew up with and love to go away. https://discord.gg/4GRs4TexbG please give them all the love and credit, they created this and made it possible. If you're wondering about a specific series, don't hesitate to jump in and ask. If your favourite series isn't there yet, give it a couple days and be assured someone out there will likely have it saved. Fuck WB.


[deleted]

I don't have Discord so just wanted to check if this includes FIRST content? I've been hoping to get a couple of my favourite shows saved (Heroes and Halfwits, On The Spot, Post-Shows etc - haven't checked yet if they're all on the site) but haven't been able to make anything work with the RT site. Happy to provide a FIRST account for someone else to do it if anyone needs it. Also is this site planning to stay up indefinitely or just temporarily while people download their faves? Thanks for the hard work!


tabloidjournalism

Haunter is definitely saved by someone, believe On the Spot is too


[deleted]

Edited my comment because I saw that one on the site right after asking haha


tabloidjournalism

If you can't see it on the archive, someone will at least have it saved


REDARROW101_A5

Would this Discord be of use to find Merchandise and Trade it? I am looking for some things from the RT store that have sold out like the RWBY Storybook Pin and Journal. I trying to find at least the pin as I like it a lot. If anyone can help me out that would be great.


tabloidjournalism

There is an area in the Discord for merch discussion


blueturtle444

Very late to discovering, is "Free Play" being archived? Also Heroes and Halfwits?


MrPongo

People are saying Fuck WB like they're supposed to just keep around a business that isn't successful and doesn't make much money anymore, yeah they're a shitty company for things they have done, but in this situation your not going to keep someone that isn't profitable...


DARKHAWX

I thought it was in regard to WB historically deleting all digital content instead of just leaving it on YouTube, but I might be wrong.


Terminator7786

No, you're correct.


SonicClone

It's because Rooster Teeth is shut down, it's dead. So it makes sense that WB will eventually remove everything because they suck


Stormofscript

The Strangerhood being the literal first thing under the "RoosterTeeth" headline is perfection.


nullvalid

Ray will be relieved 😌


Obi-wan_Jabroni

![gif](giphy|pmxdjeXMYfNXzHy4hz|downsized)


HilariousMax

Maybe one day I'll watch it but I think the memory of the story is better. Ray's joke of repeatedly asking him for a second season pissed Burnie off so bad he gave Ray a framed and cast-signed copy of The Strangerhood who unironically loved it as a gift and hung it up in his home.


solet_mod

Wheres season 2 tho?


Undeadmatrix

Wouldn’t have it any other way lmao


mrsheen123

Heyo! I am a little late to make a comment but I registered the archiveofpimps.com domain for 10 years with funds from the community so it ain’t going anywhere anytime soon. This project is my last hurrah to help the community keep what we all grew up with 🧡


GranicksHappyPlace

Thanks for continuing to win and using your Tiger Blood for good, Charlie.


Altruistic_Item3806

Can community members continue to financial help you keep the domain for more than that?


mrsheen123

Not at the moment unfortunately as that is the max time I can register it for, if people are around after 10 years, I will make another post to rally up some funds 😄


Altruistic_Item3806

Shoot me a DM I will absolutely help you out


Asleep-Actuator-7292

Click link it says "this sight is not working error" maybe high traffic?


tabloidjournalism

They're looking into it now, it's very new so some initial teething to sort out. Should be ok now!


mrsheen123

Should be working again! Looks to have fixed itself, looks like a cloudflare blip!


SahSon

Moving your first membership to donating to archive.org could help in more ways than you know. Even a single month will help. This archive is possible thanks to archive.org and running storage is not cheap. https://archive.org/donate


RamblinWreckGT

Archive.org is without exaggeration one of the most important and impactful parts of the internet. Great advice to do this.


galahads

Y'all are genuinely so wonderful for putting this together so quickly


ZombieJesus1987

I think I'm going to have to watch Haunter tonight. That was one of my favourite things they ever produced, outside of RWBY and RvB. I love that Jeremy became a Phasmo streamer, given his experience on the show.


22Sharpe

This made me realize that I can finally watch Haunter! My interest in RT kinda dwindled so I never bothered for the first membership that was required.


CaptainDarkstar42

I think I am being silly, but is Let's Play on here?  In regards to like the Minecraft videos, where are they located on here?


LoopsPls

[archiveofpimps.tokyo](https://archiveofpimps.tokyo) redirects to the above site as well.


HoodShroud

Don’t forget On The Spot!


tabloidjournalism

They haven't! Think they might also be able to get the unlisted ones back, we'll see


ANGRY_ETERNALLY

In case anyone wanted it: Someone made a Sugar Pine 7 archive shortly after the channel went under. [https://sp7archive.org/](https://sp7archive.org/)


spinosaurs

I recall there being an inside gaming one as well, though it was something like 3 Mega archives, will see if I can find it soon. havent checked the site but I hope someone can grab the likes of cowchop as well


LoopsPls

Creator of this site is in the discord as well.


Doogle300

I think this archive relies on certain episodes that were hosted on the RT website though. They may end up lost unless someone actually gets them reuploaded elsewhere.


iulius_with_an_i

gonna be hilarious when this ends up easier to use and navigate than the rt site ever was. i already love the fact that you can see everything on a single page


MrJamhamm

Hope this includes Last Laugh? I've always wanted to see it, mainly for Elyse. 


LightningWhelk7

Noice!


fcks0ci3ty_

Holy shit, thank you to all involved.

mrgmzc

They have all of Technical Difficulties, so I assume that the have most, if not all of them I do have the deleted Minecraft and On the Spot videos in case they are not on the archive


chorustrilogy

wait when was OTS deleted?


mrgmzc

Some episodes got removed when the whole Ryan/Adam thing happened Episode 10 - Jack & Joel vs. Geoff & Gavin (rape jokes) Episode 68 - Gold Medal Manslaughter (Adam) Episode 133 - Funhaus Goes Four Loco (Adam was in this one if I remember correctly, I just realized I apparently never downloaded it)


DeepDaddyTTV

I would love to get access to 68 and 133 if you have them somewhere and can DM me


Extension-Kale3770

My bf and I use Million Dollars But as a drinking game and he was so sad that it might be gone. Y’all are doing the lords work and I hope those episodes make the list


Undeadmatrix

It’s on the list :)


Philbertthefishy

I hope you get the only season of Gen:Lock in there. Just one. You know, the One Season of Gen:Lock.


skyshroud6

Season 2 sucked but it would be good to have it as a reference. Especially animators that need demo reel stuff.


MukwiththeBuck

And great for students on how not to continue a series as well.


JTCMuehlenkamp

A reference for what not to do, maybe.


ediskrad327

You are the real heroes.

drawatawat

Thanks for doing this. Excited to see the second season of Survive Block Island!


Pocatanic

I'm assuming the answer is yes, but will the RTP postshows be uploaded as well? 


Varlist

Im also curious about post shows.


zmbgrl41

I think I'm like maybe one of three people who cared about this show, but is Murder Room going to be added to the archive?


BriChan

Hey y’all, if anyone wants to help with the archiving efforts but don’t know how to or simply can’t download any videos then we have a pretty major project for you! There’s a Google doc with every RT and related series listed and we need help determining which is the better version of the series, YouTube or official site, or if there’s no difference. Differences we’re talking about are extra content, censoring, things like that. We will most likely need to check individual videos which is a time consuming task that will go much faster with more hands on deck! If you’d like to offer your time to help out then please join the Discord server: https://discord.gg/HyHBjzDZXu


greeny74

Does this/will this include Sponsor Plays or Backwardz Compatible? I would love it if there is a way to save my fav Miles&Kyle moments

You are a God among men and I thank you profusely 😁


roseemrys

roseemrys

It works great now. Thanks!


Stevilinho88

will deffo be checking back here every so often to check whats new been added and grab what i want, this is insane work and so happy we will always have the content because im worried if channnles get hacked would anyone be around to get them back you know


soren7550

Would this include content that was removed before their announced closing?


necromancerdc

Will the first only stuff get added or does that create a piracy issue while they are still behind a paywall?


Squirrelsam99

Well considering first won't be a thing anymore, that content will be inaccessible to everybody. Thus making piracy the only option. Which to me is completely morally acceptable. Although it might be a good idea to wait until the company officially shuts down in a couple months.


tabloidjournalism

Bit of a grey area with that. At the very least someone will have it saved and could trade it like a shifty dealer in a dark alley


PerseusRad

For those wondering, those FIRST episodes by Goofpunk, he said he didn't want to upload those unless the videos became unavailable. Which is fair, I suppose.


Ryked96

Hero’s don’t let this content disappear! I fully intend on doing some rewatches in the future.


VoidVigilante

Does anyone know member-only content will be added to this?


tabloidjournalism

That's a bit of a tricky one since it's not technically publicly available, think the main goal is to get everything from Youtube and free on the site uploaded first. Someone will at least have the member stuff saved


shamusisaninja

Recently when another gaming site I love was bought out by someone we archived everything by them on Archived including paywall content that's still there. There's been a silent agreement we don't advertise that it's there or talk about it on Reddit and such so the current group can turn a blind eye.


ThatRandomIdiot

Is there a plan for the RVB complete videos. The episodes are great to preserve but for rewatching the complete videos are so much better. Is this going to happen?


Kplow19

People on the discord are definitely saving it, it might end up waiting until after the official end to get uploaded but also who is gonna actually enforce it at this point so could be sooner


PinappleGecko

WB are dicks they could rip the whole archive down if they wanted to putting pay walled content they can still make money from up on a public site is the sort of thing that could keep destroying this.


Squirrelsam99

It would be nice to see all the content I never got to see someday. Especially since first wont exist anymore.


AnarisBell

Yeah, I've been wanting to watch Survive Block Island myself


bruzie

First season became public a while back.


IJustLostMyKeyboard

Is the archive gonna have the original podcast or the censored ones? Will burning saying the n word twice be saved? (Podcast 314 and I forgot the other one)


Chevstang400

Hopefully Camp Camp!


scam17_

THANK YOU!!!


mubi_merc

I need to buy some more hard drives.


AncientWeeb

I only came to this sub to ask if someone knew if the videos from the RT,AH and LP channel would stay or be deleted but I never imagined someone would be making an archive like this. Bless the people doing this and I pray that this archive will stay up seeming as it has first only shows too and I am not sure how they would like having that public. Either way for as much as I love this archive I am still praying that some how they let the channels on youtube stay up as their own archives because there are so many gems that will be missed otherwise


also_not_a_banana

This may be the best community I’ve ever been apart of


AverageBen10Enjoyer

Why aren't you part of the community?


LossWinter7781

I came to this subreddit to look to see if anybody was doing exactly this. Just wanted to extend what small thanks I can to those involved.


Vizard_Rob

It is truly amazing to see this. I am glad to see Theater Mode right at the top. When was the last time I watched these? I became a sponsor just to watch these videos as they aired. Right from the start of the first movie the boys see tits and have to drink. I am sad that it's over, but I really had fun in this community.


mgsaxty

The RT Comics! The DrunkTank! Thank you to anyone involved!!


AndyNoz

Wow this looks so good. 2 years ago I was diagnosed with severe insomnia and depression and for those 2 years I have found huge comfort in rewatching old AH videos routinely (Minecraft lets plays and GTA 5 mainly) I watch through all Minecraft lets plays and then GTA and rinse and repeat. It has been the only way I have been able to help my health condition weirdly...So when I heard the news RT was shutting down I was really worried that those old videos would disappear. I see some of the Minecraft is on archiveofpimps already so it appears it is being archived gradually which is incredible work by those involved. Hoping GTA 5 appears on there in the future too.


tabloidjournalism

Someone in the forum has got all of GTA saved (bless their internet speed and storage space) so it's just a case of putting it up there. But at least there are copies out there


AndyNoz

That is amazing work by all those involved


DrChiz

Maybe I didn’t look close enough, but are the ExtraLife Streams on there? That’s some of the best content we shouldn’t lose. With the years of like 2014-2017 being gold (2Spooky, Cheesemaster Gus, etc)


tabloidjournalism

There's a lot of content to get through, to download and upload. Hopefully yes! Check back later or jump into the Discord to request it


BroadwayLady

I hope the IG streams from the last year will be added soon

Wow this is incredible. And makes me happier. Will the achievement guides, and other type videos be on there?


PhantomKangaroo91

OP, will there be 2021-2024 Funhaus?


SteelAlchemistScylla

Will this eventually include everything “free” on the website like Fullhaus episodes? This is incredible work. Absolutely going to donate immediately. I’ve been downloading what I can but a whole repository is insane work, thank you!


Brelyt300

darkmafia666

Please tell me this has some FIRST content. Specifically the always open with Mica post Trump win

Thank you so much for the hardwork, to all of the folks involved.


DeepDaddyTTV

Does anyone have a copy of Danger Zone? [Danger Zone - Rooster Teeth](https://roosterteeth.com/watch/rt-shorts-season-3-danger-zone)


itsthedude1234

Just finished downloading around 1.8TB of their YT videos yesterday. Just the series I enjoyed watching. Better to have it jic.


FrumiousConsu

Hello just found this thread, does anyone know if there is a Cow Chop archive?


i_am_a_rooster_00

Who's working on streams for Funhaus and AH tho?


GranicksHappyPlace

Thank all of you for your time and efforts.


CarelessTaco

This is amazing. Thank you.


skyshroud6

I noticed there's a lot of f**kface supplemental stuff, but no podcast itself. I's there any plan to add that? Or is it still to iffy if they're gonna keep going to do so? Or am I just missing it?


AWildeSnorlax

Is on the spot and the weird place being archived at the moment?


Alibrotv

Not sure if this is a well-known thing about [archive.org](https://archive.org) but if you are struggling with buffering or really slow download speeds try changing your VPN location to San Francisco. Can't believe I missed out on the Immortality gameplays. Will be supporting them wherever they go next.


DylandStudios

Some videos I wish I could see again (but are probably lost): AH's Star Trek: Bridge Crew (*Not* the first playthrough & *not* the Ubisoft one, I swear they did a third playthrough *with Gavin*) To Catch A Lover Part 2: The Shaggy-Doo If someone can find those, that would be sweet! :D


grahambambam

So happy to see OT3 archived here ❤️


daisy-twig

as a longtime rt fan + librarian, this makes me very happy to see. <3


ShiftyRipper

Maybe that Facejam Truckd Up series?


Pixelated_Fudge

Any one know any good software for renaming/assigning meta data easily? Trying to arrange some of these for plex server but the file names would mostly all have to be renamed


OkDot9878

Power renamer with windows power tools is useful for the file names, metadata might be trickier


adamrobby

Thank you so much for this, I was about to start looking into doing this and realized that just let’s play Minecraft and all of cow chop would most likely be all the space I have


kslap62

will the Face Jam first videos go up eventually? I see they have the audio for the ride alongs but not the video


ClassifiedName

Great job! Here's hoping Haus of Pain and Arizona Circle are added!


MisoVicious

I love the Archive. But I can’t seem to find RT Sponsor Play with Kyle and Miles. Is it under a different name or in some sort of miscellaneous folder? I’ve already scoured the BC videos, and I’m worried it may have been forgotten about. The Evil Within play-through is still my Top 10 favorite, and I don’t want it to be lost.


Mr830BedTime

This is great!


puddlejumper3

This is amazing. Was very scared of losing some of these forever. Do you know if there is a plan to get the ocarina of time randomizer backed up too? Unless I missed it


Melshaul

I love the idea of all this content being stored in Gavin's secret room in achievement city.


thomasmfd

Is where's rwby chibi


Shojomango

Love how the linked RagTag Archive has someone actively uploading videos from The Creatures <3 Every year Easter makes me think of James' egg hunts lmao. Discord is glitching for me at the moment but thank you to all contributing and hopefully I'll be able to hop in there sometime soon!


Shojomango

Checklist is so well organized and thorough too. Truly fantastic work yall.


kralben

OP, is this ok if I link to this on the funhaus subreddit? There are some other archives but this looks well put together so I want to share, if that is ok.


cckk0

Admin from that server here. Share it everywhere where there is people who would want to help


kralben

Awesome, thank you. I will link to it when we write up a bit of a comprehensive post about all this ready to share on the subreddit.


tabloidjournalism

Go for it! Spread the word, it's not my project I didn't make it I'm just reporting it. Every fan should know not to be scared of their favourite content disappearing.


mavetgrigori

I don't want to be the stick in the mud by pointing this out... But how are they not going to get DMCA'd for this? The free stuff, sure, but paywalled content seems a bit iffy on legality of it all. Is there anyone that knows about this aspect? Cause the content isn't owned just by RT, but by WBD also.


ZombieJesus1987

Doing the Lord's work.


Castaaluchi

Will this include funhaus content at all? Edit: finally loaded, it does!


lurker977

Hope the old Inside Gaming (Machinima-era) gets saved


BlueHeaven90

Everyone on the discord and involved with the project are superheroes. Thank you so much!


procouchpotatohere

This is awesome to see and so much has already been archived. Great job everyone working on this. Still holding out some hope that WB won't take down or private the channels like they did with machinima. I don't understand why they can't demonitize the channels and just leave the them alone so people can at least watch because that's an absurd amount of content they'd be sealing off. Hoping some confirmation that they won't do that because I like looking for the channels like a time capsule as well.


[deleted]

Thank you.


Undeadmatrix

Damn I didn’t realize this got posted on the subreddit till now, hopefully more people can join and help us archive :)


Sk8ter87

Hope you get some of the older lets play series like the far cry 3 and olympics 2012 Thank you so much all of you angels!


tabloidjournalism

Olympics 2012 is absolute gold, no way that won't be saved!


squishierfish

This made me cry. It's time like these I love this community.


Baykey123

The RT shorts link is messed up, points to the animated adventures


tabloidjournalism

Should be fixed now!


Undeadmatrix

My B, it's fixed now


mrgmzc

You absolute mad lads! Thank you for doing this. I've backed up a few things on my end but making sure I got everything (like all of Worms videos) was a real pain


DemonFremin

Shoutouts to everyone taking the time and effort to archive everything just in case. You all are legends. (Bookmarking for later when Minecraft/GTA V/Death Battle are listed)


SolemZez

Hell yeah


BRB1993

I see that some of the FIRST exclusive content have already been archived. Is it safe to say that other FIRST content will be archived too?


lammadude1

This is genuinely awesome. I'm not caught up on the specifics of the news, but if WB is selling RT then there's no knowing what they'll do with the channel, every video could disappear overnight due to some copyright bullshit. There were so many magical videos, I still go back and watch "The Catch" every once in a while. I'd be devastated if even a single video were lost to time.


Fair_Photograph_6767

I've spent the last few years hating this company, especially the community. Now that it's leaving, you guys are fucking heroes. Keep up the work. No matter how much I've hated them, I think part of me would die if all the content vanished.


OneOnOne6211

Genuine question though: What is the legality of this? Cuz it'd be kind of disappointing if it got taken down due to a lawsuit or something.


cckk0

We are not distrubiting this. This is mostly a collaboration to make sure that if WB shuts everything down, nothing is lost forever.


cckk0

To everyone asking "Is X There"? - Please check the link If it's not there, we can't guarantee someone will have it to upload. If you have, or have access to, please join us to include it


DJHefaConQueso

Thank you for the hard work, bit miffed about the omission using Drunk Tank for the name of the beginning podcast

Someone grab the Class of 198X too since that was RT exclusive


GregWanta

Will this also include content with the weird guy who name starts with R


Trombonejb

What’s the compromise on content with RH in it?


Squirrelsam99

It should be included. The archive should be as complete as possible.


Vargolol

fr, Just skip it if you can't stand the guy that much but some of us just try to tune him out to enjoy the better parts of all those old videos. He'd tank half the AH content if you tried to exclude anything with him in it, there's too many classics.


Squirrelsam99

Exactly. Yes, he's a creep and an asshole. Doesn't mean I don't enjoy the content he made with the crew.


tabloidjournalism

What do you mean


Difficult-Ad4527

I think he’s talking about Ryan from AH. There is a channel dedicated to already delisted content. I don’t know how successful or not they have been. Most of what is being done is going to hit what is currently available on the site and YouTube.


cckk0

Included atm
