No, the admins cannot make the full offline copy available. There are serious privacy implications with doing so. Separating the sensitive data from the public data takes time, effort, and money. We don't have enough of those right now. The same things you don't have right now.
The hypocrisy is not in you asking for the backup. The hypocrisy is in you being given solutions, and the reasons we can't do an alternative to those solutions, and then saying our excuses are invalid when they are the very same excuses you have.
As stated above, you already have access to the content offline. Use those.
...Someone said the reason the admins do not want to make offline backups...
Someone, yes, but not the admins. However, the Admins did state above the reasons for not (yet) making an offiline backup available to you.
...the AI already scraped and continue to scrape the site....
Yes, just as Glitchart said; use that as an offline backup. The work is already done.
...the admins have no excuses for not making offline backups.
You have been presented with several solutions for making your own offline backup, and yet:
"...I am a little busy these days and hopfully in the future I can find a way..." (excuse) "...I am a little bit busy right now working on the debian dvd..." (excuse) "...I will not get a chance to work on a web scraper for your site right now..." (excuse) "...Don't have the cash at the moment for that..." (excuse) "...I am a little busy these days and hopfully in the future I can find a way..." (excuse)
This is not to say your excuses are invalid- they are all good reasons you cannot do this now- but it is a bit hypocritical to then say "Admins have no excuse" for similar reasons.
And, finally, as stated above, we DO have a complete offline backup already. It just hasn't been made available to you. Rest assured it is available to trusted people who can make it available if something happens to OGA. If this is not an acceptable response, then the answer to the question "Is it possible to have a offline version of this site like wikipedia does?" will change from "possibly?" to "No."
I'm just wondering how a post of these assets would be received here on OGA.
They would be rejected. Although the authors indicated by way of licensing that the screenshots are FOSS, we would need to see their entheusiastic agreement that they intend assets to be extracted from those screenshots and used in (potentially) competing games. The conversation where this has been discussed before can be found here: https://opengameart.org/forumtopic/censored-broforce-sprites-and-game-re...
The motivation behind the LoG devs openly licensing the screenshots is most likely because "These are screenshots for Wikipedia, and Wikipedia requires images with a free license." Per Clint Bellanger, OGA Admin:
"Scraping Wikipedia screenshots for reusable art is technically legal, and ethically awful behavior. Regardless of chosen license, if the original owner/artist has not intended for her art to be used in other games, it shouldn't be on OpenGameArt."
I can't say this method of obtaining derivatives would create "legal trouble" but- without the devs endorsement of this approach- it would create relationship trouble with respected industry developers. This is an excellent question to ask and I applaud you bringing it up because it is a topic worth considering.
CC-BY 3.0 derivatives can be adapted to CC-BY-SA 3.0
So you adapted the CC0 works to OGA-BY, then mixed all the OGA-BY assets, then adapted the OGA-BY asset to CC-BY, then derived a new mix, then adapated that to CC-BY-SA when mixing in Element.
Yes. the animation and rigging tools are AI-based.
Since mixamo is an AI tool, please include the version number and a link to their terms of use page per submission guidelinesEDIT: Fixed, thanks! :)
Bumped for new content
Well, I guess you have your answer then:

It is free to use so long as you give credit. See FAQ entry #1
You've got your licensing right, glitch. GPT doesn't quite have it right:
So you adapted the CC0 works to OGA-BY, then mixed all the OGA-BY assets, then adapted the OGA-BY asset to CC-BY, then derived a new mix, then adapated that to CC-BY-SA when mixing in Element.
