Ironically /vrg/ is one of the better publicly archived long-lived communities for study (and for clarity's sake let's say 2+ years is 'long-lived' in modern/commercial VR time) . Other ones are just through discord/twitter and are deleted at the drop of a hat. Very few of them leave footprints. Sometimes you just hear about them. It's interesting to think oral tradition is still a method of preservation in an online medium.
