View Full Version : Why are you here?

Apparently, many of us don't play FF.

I mean, I do when I'm feeling nostalgic. I like FF1 so much that it's prolly unhealthy, but whatever.

I wound up here because I was wandering though the FF interweb in my old forumite days, and the joint seemed amusing enough.
I still come around when my life gets rocked because it helps me rlax and talk trash, and it helps keep my head alive until I can find someplace to go.

Why do you all spend time on the forums? Especially if you have no or no more genuine interest in FF?

Edit: and don't go answering my title quwestion with nonsense about your parent's bedroom habits.

Edit: or do. I guess it doesn't matter to me, does it?

Though really I just joined this place, and have never managed to quit it these past 7 years. Trust me I've tried, after a while I get withdrawl. EoFF is like the love child of nicotine and crack.

Sometimes you can find drunk college girls and get them to hang out with you without dropping a single dollar.

Drunks are awesome. They'll even pee on you, whether or not you're into that sort of thing.

I still like a few people here and there, it adequately fills the role of a social outlet I'd prefer to get from this type of community as opposed to something like Facebook, and Site Staff is a big part of my life. We be going places.

I DO RECOMMEND IT! Only this forum though. Other ones suck.

I think a majority of the interesting convo's happen in General of EoEo anyways. I mean I originally joined because of a sloppy joe thread that had been archived from the general chat.

I like FF but mostly FFVI and down and I really only talk -alot- in the FFVI forums.

Other than that, I find the general chat amusing and EoEo a fun place for inteligent debates so why -shouldn't- I be here?

I've noticed that in the forums for the games, it's like 98% fan-kid-talk and then 2% actual talk about the game with no bias.
Hence I usually just stay to the games I like to avoid of wandering into one of the fan-kid threads in another FF game. xD

I usually check each FF forum once a month, some (like FFII or FFVIII) one every two or three months. It makes it less annoying when there's nothing new, and then the ammount of time you spend not looking just gives time for something new to pop up.

I suppose part of it's down to habit now that I've been properly posting here for about six months or so now but I do quite enjoy visiting the place. There's a lot of people whose posts I enjoy reading and there's always the odd thread that's particularly interesting and'll give me something to think about.

I think I found this place when I was searching for a particular game in the series itself. I didn't join until several months later. I regularly start with General Chat, General Gaming Discussion, and then go through most of the Final Fantasy boards.

I notice when you're not around. Yay for you always coming back. 8-)

I come here because it is my online home, something that has been consistent for me over the past seven years. Despite moving country, having family move away from me and vice versa, losing friends and gaining new friends... there has always been Eyes on Final Fantasy.

Well, I joined when I was 12 because I needed help with something in FFX.

I've stopped going to EoFF a few times over the years, but for the most part, I've been coming here rather consistently for over 5 years now. It's hard not to come here when you've been posting here for so long.

I like it here, so~ <3

Eh, dunno really.

I lied.

I started posting because I wanted to ramble about how awesome Red Mages were in FF1, as well as how much I generally loved FF1 (it's not my actual favourite but still).

Then I attended the 2007 meetup for no particular reason and they were all so cool that my relationship with the community felt cemented. Also this place has been featured on SomethingAwful and it was amusing.
