View Full Version : A Thank You to Our Contributors

A lot of hoopla has been made over the latest Square Enix Shoutout (http://home.eyesonff.com/general-chat/147350-square-enix-mentioned-us.html). Now more then ever is the best time to reflect because there is no way we would've reached this newest plateau without you guys our every day member contributors. Where it's true, our editing team is responsible to put up news articles, features, and the like ourselves, with us as a one man wrecking team EoFF would fall short every time. Our growth is not just a result of our Staff, but from everyone. EoFF will either succeed or flounder as a community. That's why this thread is here a thank you from not just the editing team, but all staff, for everyone's hard work at keeping Eyes on Final Fantasy great. Attached below is an outline of all the great articles we've received from all of our members. I'd also like to thank anyone who hasn't made this list because their work was posted by a staff member. Red Mage Coffman's review (http://home.eyesonff.com/content/2121-ffdissidia-member-reviews.html) of Final Fantasy Dissidia is such a work. If you've contributed something that hasn't made the list because it wasn't posted by you, let me know via Mognet and I'll edit it in here.
<br>
<br>
<br>Sometimes however, contributions from individuals go above and beyond the simple general thank you. I am of course referring to the consistent work done by Agent Proto and Raistlin. The consistent Art Showcase that Agent Proto has provided us has given us variety on the frontsite. For years, DeviantArt was a website viewed as a more general competitor that EoFF had no chance in competing against. He's turned it into an ally, this was the groundwork for our abilities to contact so many DeviantArt members for the Final Fantasy Ciddies. Indeed it is change in perspectives like these that will be instrumental for EoFF's continued growth. Raistlin on the other hand has provided us with reliable FFXIV News Updates for months now. His constant eye has indeed made our editing team lax on FFXIV news, I know personally I've found myself thinking "eh, Wes'll get it" many-a-times when viewing my FFXIV Google Alerts. The day he retires from his FFXIV post will be a rude awakening to all of us editors! :greenie:

<br>Without further adieu, the contributor table.

<br>Again everyone as BoB said at the Ciddies, thank you for making EoFF, literally.

I'd like to give everyone a whole hearted thank you for reading my articles and leaving kind messages, support, and encouragement to keep writing!

This thread will be as good a place as any to let you all know that my "brief history of..." series is going to be a bi weekly article once the start of the year rolls around! So look forward to that. ;)

I enjoy reading everyone else's work as well and this thread has made my day. Thanks Boko for making this and a big thanks to all the friends I've made here over the years. :bro:

Hey baloki, those are all dated at least 2 years ago. Well, I lie, one is 2011. But it's almost 2013 so it's pretty much 2 years now. This is celebration of those who've put in the extra effort THIS year. Not that any of their efforts were wasted ^_^

We just would like to say a thank you to those who'e really helped out this year. We've been working hard on becoming a go to news site/fan site for fans and SE itself. And it's been paying off! They've sent us to an event this year, sent us posters and have now mentioned us on an update! I think that makes all our efforts a rolling success! We couldn't be there though without the help from the community. So thank you everyone! if we keep this up we'll be the number one ff site on the web! (maybe!) Thanks guys!

Thank you contributors. You've done a great service that has brought a lot of activity to the forums.

Also a big thanks to the Editing team for overseeing this effort, especially Jiro, who, if he ever edits an admin's post again, will be stripped naked and forced to run backwards through the EoFF picture thread.

I don't want any thanks in particular; the list says I wrote two articles but I actually only wrote one, and the one that I did write was only like two sentences long. Freya wrote the other and published it under my name. xD So I want to give particular thanks to EVERYONE ELSE!

Hey Freya, there you go with your shitty tone of posts again ^_^

Also the thread didn't say that so don't go assuming that we're all going to know that :)

I second this. I foresee Lockharted will be a well loved member of the community, and might even get a title someday (hint hint).

Wow, thanks, all. I made the mistake earlier this year of agreeing to help out with the FFXIV content, and now I've apparently written 30 articles. Jesus.

Also, little teaser: I have a new article series in the works that should start in the next week or two (original content, instead of the news/commentary I've been focused on). I've just been waiting for something else to happen, but I've been told that'll be soon.

Del Murder
12-20-2012, 03:20 AM
Raistlin, you've actually done a bang up job with the articles and I'm thoroughly impressed. For your reward, I will stop editing your past EoEO posts into the ramblings of a Bible-thumping, gun-toting, right-winged conservative.

I second this. I foresee Lockharted will be a well loved member of the community, and might even get a title someday (hint hint).

I should know, as I am related to the fortune teller in the Golden Saucer.


Ach you guys!!!! :blush:

Raistlin, you've actually done a bang up job with the articles and I'm thoroughly impressed. For your reward, I will stop editing your past EoEO posts into the ramblings of a Bible-thumping, gun-toting, right-winged conservative.

Does this mean you'll start doing that if I stop writing articles? Because that sounds hilarious.

Unless you turning me into The Redneck just makes Shlup lust after me even more. I can only handle so much leg-humping.

Thanks to everyone involved. I think the front site is now probably the best it has been for a long time, and certainly much more prominent in people's hearts and minds, which I think is a testament to all the hard work that people have put in over the years.

This thread will be as good a place as any to let you all know that my "brief history of..." series is going to be a bi weekly article once the start of the year rolls around! So look forward to that.

Postponing this for a bit. My desktop decided it doesn't want to work. At the moment the only computer I have at my disposal is a laptop that likes to randomly shut off by itself frequently, and I can't be arsed to work on an article that has to be saved every 30 seconds "just in case".

EDIT: Fixed the problem.
