Geez, talk about a way to kill off small talk with a genuine question out of admiration and curiosity for things I'm not familiar with. I've been here since some months, thank you. -_-

Don't worry, not all of us on here are like that. I'm curious about this myself as I remember trying to use Wayback Machine to visit the old "Jump the Shark" website as I fondly remembered reading about opinions on when shows went downhill on there and was bummed to find out it wouldn't let the Wayback Machine touch it.

I now feel better, thanks! I get how you feel, the Wayback Machine really has difficulty archiving certain types of sites. I'm doing what I can to save them using it but there really should be a better alternative or an upgrade to the Machine to archive these more picky sites. The only real option now would be to save them as html files, but it's not as intuitive to navigate in as in something like the Wayback Machine. That must have been an interesting site for sure, wonder what they had to say about the Simpsons.
Some sites, such as this one, cannot be archived by the Wayback Machine due to DDOS protection causing Error 403: Forbidden.
Are there crawlers that can archive such sites?
Answering my own question, which is relevant to the topic (and not hijacking with unrelated content otherwise known as "mema"). Archive.today (at archive.ph) seems to work fine. See examples here and here.
