-get to see even more passionate people and amazing art in all shapes and sizes! it definitely a learning curve. i think one of the best parts of having a site is that it's hard to make (same with every other art form). but the more you learn and grow the more satisfying it becomes :D it's hard for a beginner to even understand what 'webrings' and 'buttons' are, let alone learning a whole coding language-

-but we are a whole community of passionate people. this isn't really the place for people who just don't care, and that's what makes it beautiful :)

i don't think it's the staff of archive.org, it's most likely random people who see your site and think "it'd suck if this suddenly disappeared"

I agree with @niicespiice and your post, i can't remember but mine is probably on there too and i have very conflicting feelings about it. i'm the type who heavily values my privacy and is very picky about what information i choose for others to see. I don't think I'd ever ask them to remove mine but I support your choice and think it makes a lot of sense
