    Satisfaction will only come in time as things progress and develop.

    either way, i trust that Cid did what he could to keep EoFF and that even if he's still not gonna own it, he'll make sure things are done correctly for our benefit

    It would be much cooler if we actually had new insect overlords to welcome.

    Well, I'm sure this will only benefit the community.

    Well, spdude bought the site because he saw value in it (insert mandatory snark here about how did that happen). Which means he likes EoFF and will try to keep it as good or better

    I've avoided posting here not because I think this was a bad move but because I haven't much to say I was at the uk meetup with hero, baloki and psy all 3 have told me already pretty much all there is to know. The only thing I have said is a shame is that the site was never offered up for sale to the members or site staff. It would have been a nice gesture even if a group of us couldn't afford the place it'd have been offered to us.

    This new owner however has my full support and like Cid said himself, he aint going anywhere he'll be an admin but he won't be the top admin.

    Having a bunch of people own the site would have been a bad move.

    At least the site is still running and hasn't been shut down. As long as no major changes are made then I'll be happy.

    Alright, I'm finally going to post.

    People who matter keep saying nothing will change, nothing to fear, etc, however, EoFF will also never be the same as it was, either. EoFF, to me, was an online home, now it's just another website added to a person's list of gaming websites, though I still cherish it, and still come here, it simply won't be the same as it used to be.

    *sigh* I sort of agree with Khaotic, lets just hope for a brighter and ever progressing future towards at least anther shift in ownership one day.

    Thread name should be changed to 'Internet Drama at EoFF thread', imo.

    If only the drama would amount to anything. Things are set and we can only share our opinions and feelings, hoping for the best.

    Jesus Christ. If I recall correctly there was once a time when Cid himself had other gaming sites alongside EoFF; what difference did it make? If you come here, and you consider yourself a part of the community, then you should know that this place is ENDEMIC. It doesn't make a smurfing iota of difference whether spdude owns the rest of the internet or not. spdude's SAID there's not going to be any drastic changes made. If anyone really comes to EoFF everyday consciously thinking, "Ah, Eyes on Final Fantasy. That lovely website and those forums owned by Cid!" then I'm going to laugh. Yes, it was created and owned by Cid. He did a great job, we thank him But now he can't afford to keep it up any longer, and so he sold it. He hasn't turned us over to Beelzebub, for God's sake. Once you get out of this thread and once the announcement changes at the top, most members'll probably forget that they cared so much about it anyways.

    Uhm I didn't mean to sound so harsh, but I just think it's silly to say that EoFF is any less cherishable now than it was last week, when Cid still owned it. 'tis all.
    This subliminal message could be meant for YOU. But it's probably not. Move along ;D
