Ok, let's name some myths and facts of EoFF in your posts. If you have a myth and/or fact you want to share with us, please post so we may educate the general populous of EoFF's newer generation. I will start off by the popular (or not) myth and fact about how you can get on staff.
MYTH: You can become a Cid's Knight by asking any admin.
FACT: Not only will you be laughed at, but your chances will be immediately shot down.
chaos: Well, I've got one that has been going around. (BTW, great thread idea Proto)
Myth: If you contribute one thing to any Final Fantasy section (ie. Item List, etc. etc.) You will become a part of the site staff.
Fact: The contribution will probably not even be thanked, as well, you will never become one.
Since when has that been a myth, Prot?
Myth: RSL is a man who lives in Iowa who loves Rinoa and the Detroit Lions.
Fact: RSL is actually a second account used by the staff for our own amusement, and as a potential fall guy in case the IRS comes looking for Sean's books.

Many of us here at EoFF actually loathe newbies. But then again. The same many people hardly ever post anymore.
Jeez, try and make this place look good...
And why should I? The people who even matter in my opinion already have their own opinions about me. Besides, EoFF already looks good. It pretty much can only go downhill from here.Quote:

Actually, I was directing that toward my post, implying that I was trying to make EoFF look nice by saying that. Sorry for the misunderstanding, I wasn't trying to tell you what to do.
I really can't wait untill we can actually portray sarcasm over the internet.
Myth: Cids Knights and admins have power.
Fact: Well, they don't.
myth: You can actually learn something from eoff
fact: You will only be corrupted to craziness
Where did that come from?Quote:

FACT: He was forcefully removed by security when we found out he had been swiping stuff from the evidence locker. All the best stuff, too.
Were you in staff for those anonymous staff evaluations we did that one time? One of the comments about me was something like "I'm still not entirely convinced that this is a real person." They must've been on to something!Quote:
