If you come across broken links and you really wish to see the content, just click:
INTERNET.ARCHIVE.WAYBACK.MACHINE It's actually just archive.org . Type it in your web-browser or just use the link.
How to use this: Click this: FAQ or find it yourself on the site of archive.org
Various places castersrealm was located: Started at eq.castersrealm.com until August 2, 2002 then eq.crgaming.com continued until July 16, 2007 then to castersrealm.com where it closed. Although a message was on the site saying it would be sent to 1up.com although I couldn't find a link that was archived there.
When you use archive.org there is a bar graph the shows up at the top of the page with various other dates that they have a snapshot of the web-site. Kind of nice so you can see how the website has changed over the years. You can click the < > arrows to step through the various back up days, or just click the bar and jump to different years.
I hope others find this as useful as I have.

Wow, very nice. This is new to me. I just used it to get news of what happened the day my niece and nephew were born. Very helpful utility, for Everquest sites as well as others.
Thank you.

I don't know how Korgon1 did it, but I needed something similar and just used yahoo.com at archive.org and they have back ups for almost every day going back a number of years, I just checked and it's pretty spotty back beyond 2004, but you could get lucky I just read about "Clinton to plug city curfew programs" on May 30, 1996. You just click up at the top of the page the year that you are looking for and a calender pops up that gives you the dates they have back-ups for. Of course there are older sites that were in existence back when there was just text available on the internet.
Good luck to you.
