  I will post how I did it here.
  
  
  First you need php. Very important. Secondly you need mysql.
  
  So first I set up the appropriate databsses for records.
  
  Now for the code. I used curl to access their user page, then using DOMDocuments I loaded the source. Using some more DOM php work I seperated it into just the post section.
  
  Then using even more DOM work and some loops I took every 3rd div, they have the link to thread.
  
  
  Then using a bit more DOM work I got the links href attribute.
  
  Then using phps Explode feuture I split it into 2 arrays, Id (right of # ) and link (left of hashtag).
  
  
  Now I plan to using curl access the pages then using DOM work retrieve each post and insert them into the database.
