I know they no longer appear, but people still link the C++ ones all the time:

I'm sure they still link the other forum-specific ones frequently as well, I just don't visit those forums frequently enough to know. Are those gone too?
They were working yesterday, but now they return an error page saying I don't have permission to access them...? What gives?
Is this somehow related to the database corruption mentioned in this thread?
