I've put together a team of some people and we are collectively scraping it with ~9 instances of the scraper and so far we've gotten more than 20,000 posts but we still have a good amount more to go.
We also might scrape some other stuff 
currently scraping every single post on wasteof.money. once I'm done I'll compile a big collection of users/posts and train a markov chain on wasteof posts
edit: I've been doing it for a while and I can only get 4 a minute :/
