FYI: I am running the scraper right now on all the subforums except for the two NBA forums (including the Timberwolves). The only forum with a little activity was the Twins. If any new posts are made there, they might be missing in the new forum, holding off for a few days is a good idea.
It's getting close!

So from what I understand, this site is shutting down, and Tim is setting up a new one for us and also trying to archive the history of the threads on this site? Wow, thanks man!
I don't suppose it's possible to go back and archive the old ESPN threads too?!?! Man, that would be so crazy.

I'm interested to see if I was right about Rashad McCants, Darko Milicic and Michael Beasley.

Okay, I have something up and running. It does not have any NBA or Timberwolves posts, but all the other forums are there. All user accounts from Enjin are pseudo created, but are inaccessible (email addresses, etc from Enjin were not available).
http://forum.midwestvolleyball.comforum.midwestvolleyball.com
You can poke around as a guest. You can create an account if you wish and create some posts. I should have a gizmo by the end of the day that allows ME to merge an Enjin pseudo account with your new account, including join date, post count and avatar.
If it looks like a go, I will run the scraper tonight on our NBA and Timberwolves board and load them in the morning.

Question. Will we all have to kiss up to you now knowing you are the moderator of the forum?

Probably unrelated... I just want it on record...
Wolves will win 61 games next season.

I just went on Tim's newly created Timberwolves forum. Same name and same highly questionable takes on our Timberwolves. :).

The merge gizmo is ready to go! But I will not use it until the Timberwolves posts are loaded over night. I have to do each poster individually. So I see you have an account, I will do the merge.

The scraper takes so dang long, I decided to start it now. I don't know if it starts with oldest first (most logical), or newest first. So any new posts may or many not make it over to the new forum.
You can make new posts on the new forum now, as Lip has done. They will not be overwritten.
