I joined shortly after beating Kingdom Hearts so I could find some information on the next game XD

I also wanted to participate in the KH Riddles I think.

I joined because the owner chloroformed me and I woke up here.

...which is surprisingly close to the truth.

I joined because Cid was handing out moderator positions on a first come, first serve basis. I thought it would be cool to be a moderator (I was a forum newbie at the time) so I joined. Who knew I would still be on the staff six years later?

I was initially going to be a troll. Yep. I was such a badass when I first joined. I remember once calling the friendly monsters in FFIX gay without explaining why so Mirage got mad at me. There was much more aswell...

Tough to remember. I originally joined years ago despite what my join date may tell you, and then sort of drifted away. I'll guess it's because I liked the site in general and figured I'd try the forums.

I joined because I needed FFX help as Rikkuyuna89, since it was my first FF, and I was looking for a new forum. I stuck in the FF forum for about 3 months, then became a GC-er. :)

Becoming a GCer often tends you to become a spammer and almost never post in FF forums again. That is why I stay with other forums but still post in GC...

I dedicate myself to one forum at a time. I've drifted to and from a few. One became like family. And then that family got kinda bitter and nasty. So I decided to leave them. Then a week or so later, I was playing Dawn of Souls on my GBA and needed a map and found this place. The information on the main site was so useful I decided to delve further into the site, and found the forums. The people seemed like they had a family of their own. Awful nice. Awful accepting. I joined. Tested it out. Fell in love. And stayed.

Venom
11-13-2005, 06:07 PM
Well the real reason i came here besides to show everyone the dedication i had to Alf and how sexy i was, i came here because the other forum i was on turned into a flame fest and favorites competetion not too mention at least one person was banned each day for something utterly ridicicolus.

Really? I think that's what got CD posting more, too. I'd start another one, but I haven't played FF7 in years, and I've sort of lost interest in the gaming forums.

I was looking up stuff for FF8 and bookedmarked the main site. ONe day bored on the main site I stumbled into the forum. I wanted to post in a VII topic so I registered and never went back to the FF forums after I posted my first topic in the GC.

I actually found #eoff before the forum. So I was on that for a day and didn't know anything about there being a forum, and Jeremy (necro) gave me the link and I joined.

ShunNakamura
11-14-2005, 01:34 AM
Me?

Somehow I ended up on the forums. For some reason posted in a thread. Saw the Eyes on Each Other and Eyes on the World and said I would stay. Still is the best place I have found for reasonable discussion.

edit- according to the the search option it appears my first post was in the Esper Elimination round stuff. Heh, may have seen a link to it somewhere whilst looking up espers oh so long ago.

Once I found the other forums I sort of stopped using the gaming forums. Don't have that much time to look everything over, in general of course.

My friend wanted to show me a picture of how badly the screwed up Yuna in Final Fantasy X-2. I was bored and it was about 1:00 AM in the summer, so I actually went through the registration process so that I could view the bloody picture.

And then, since I'd gone through all the effort, I decided to start browsing the forums some.

I joined because of that "Did you notice this detail of Ultimecia" thread. Since I was not joined, I could not see what the fuss was about so I registered and saw what was so interesting about Ultimecia's lower half. Then, I decided that this was a nice place and stayed, getting Sapphiresea (my cousin) and moldybread (my sister) to join as well.

I think I found this, somehow, and wanted information on FFT. (After looking at my first thread, that was probably it.) So, I registered, asked for the information I needed, and quickly found the EotW forums, where I could be in my natural habitat, pissing off people I think are wrong. After that, I was here to stay. Well, not in EotW or EoEO to stay, of course, but in this forum. I think I'll be back there in a couple days, though ... man, I'll have to get used to actually having to be serious again.

Back in 2003, I was bored in Computer Class, and after seeing the site due to a link by my friend Zannith, I joined, mainly because his sister was on the board, so there would be SOMEONE i knew.

I was a fool back then, not very serious and making dumb posts. I always hanged out in the Gaming Forums, i was a little scared of General Chat, as my friend said its full of wierd fools and sex talk..which is sorta true...

I decided to return this year, since school had finished (They banned EoFF since i was on it every single time I went to a computer class) and I moved into General Chat...and occasionaly EoEO and the Gaming Forums...especially FFI-IV Forum...

I found EoFF by searching for ROMs for the early FF's. I found the forums via the FF section, going through the links. When I was first browsing the FFV forum, I had no idea that there were other forums directly connected to it. I thought that in order to get to the FFI-IV forum, I would have to go back to the site and then click my way through to the FFIV section and then into the forum from there. Man, was I new to forums. Times sure have changed!

i forgot how i found this place. i hardly ever visit the website, except to sign the guestbook. i guess i wanted a good place for all the video-games i like. a board about Silent Hill, a board for Tenchu, and one for Final Fantasy. all but two of my usernames remain, and the rest are on the verge of "death" or...already gone.

Aphelion
11-14-2005, 03:17 PM
I'm not sure...I was probably looking for some FFIX info or something, and then, all of a sudden, I took a peek at the forums and...Well, here I am.

ThroneofDravaris
11-14-2005, 03:22 PM
Well, I couldn’t find a decent Eva forum, so I stated looking or the next best thing.

Since I like Final Fantasy, and also happen to be an opinionative prick, this place works out just fine.

OK, it's a long story, but...

"It was a cold summers day and all the leaves were falling off the trees, ya know, like they do. Anyway, I was sitting down on my computer chair outside, when, for no aparent reason, a mermaid strolled up to me. She took me inside, and showed me how to love. But anyway, I digress. There was a whole situation with these army guys who chased me through 3 states before experimenting on me with this guy I knew, called Alive-Man. Eventually, for reasons I am too drunk to remember, (And YOU can't see the typos, poor sucker), I took on all of Alive-Man's personality traits, and such. Well, the mermaid did not like this, and dumped me for a chaos demon. They are slimy all over, with antlers, sick, sick people...Anyway, after that I escaped the army guys and started working small time as a jigallo down at the ladies night bar, which, by the way, is run by me, but that's a WHOOOOLE other story. Anyway, to make a long story short, the end."
So,
Reason I joined EOFF:
Because a bunch of drunken drunks made me dance, and I couldn't take it anymore and joined EOFF.;)

I believe I joined because I was trying to fully understand the story of FFX and this site came up in a Google search. I made a couple posts, then a couple years passed, and now I have recently started posting again because I have been in the Final Fantasy mood again (and recently re-beat FFX).

If you want to know the truth, I'd know of this forum for some time before I joined. I joined one day on a mere whim - must have been around this time last year, in fact.

War Angel
11-14-2005, 07:18 PM
I tried registering here about 3.5-4 years ago... but couldn't, due to some technical problem. So, I let it go.

Then, I came back, a little over 2 years ago (Good God, I'm an oldbie. I think). The reason was simple and very clear to me.

There was a thread about the Israeli-Arab conflict, started by some Black Cobra person of questionable motives and agenda, and he spread lies and generally dissed my country and people. It was really too much for me to tolerate... so, I registered and commented. Lengthly.

I've been frequenting this site ever since... and often, for the same reason - to take part in discussion. I've found this place to be a good place to hold debates with intelligent people from all over the world, with a good moderating team that lets those debates deal themselves out for the most part, but doesn't allow spam and flaming that generally ruin discussions. And that's all I really ask for.
