I don't remember exactly. I know I found it well before I ever made a name here. It was some random Final Fantasy search back in the days of the internet where a site like this would come up right away as opposed to a million wikis, reviews, shop links, etc.

I had this site bookmarked for a few years. I don't remember what I was searching for when I found it, probably something for Tactics.

This year I decided to join, as I was in the mood for some FF chatter.

[Mahad]

When I think online forums, I think final fantasy. So I looked online for FF forums, and this one of the ones that showed up. The community looked friendly and the place is active. So here I am.

I googled Final Fantasy forums and found it third in the listings.

I wish Loony BoB had come to my house when I was a child like in Harry Potter or X-Men and told me that I'd been chosen to join EoFF

Instead of getting an owl with a letter, you get a moogle with a Mognet message!

Needed a full synthesis guide for KH I believe, I just used to use the frontsite and then I just joined the forum for some reason. Can't remember if it was to ask a question or just on a whim. I never made a newbie thread though, and didn't post in the general forums for quite a while.

I guess I've had this thread open in my tabs for a month or so and finally get around to replying in it. Resurrection time!

Anyway. I had just become disenchanted with my previous internet "home". Not that I was ever really enchanted in the first place. I had just migrated there out of desperation when my first real internet home on Napster died. It was a Shining Force forum. Favored JRPG series at the time. But they were extremely strict and ridiculous. Every newbie was required to make a newbie thread and introduce themselves. They were far from welcoming to newbies, otherwise. They had their clique, and everyone else felt left out. The turn-over rate was ridiculous. And above all, you could get banned for mentioning Final Fantasy too many times. It was "The Series That Shall Not Be Named". So ridiculous

So I was honestly on the prowl for a new home most of the time, and I probably joined out of spite. How I actually found the place, I really have no idea anymore. I'm thinking I found it through the front site. I wasn't pro-actively looking for other forums. I think I was researching weird things regarding FFVI or VII. Either Gogo's identity, or if anyone ever managed to resurrect Aeris, stuff like that. I knew they were all bull, but it was interesting to read theories and whatnot

I remember when I joined I immediately jumped into a topic about Terra or something. I never made a newbie thread here either. Can't get in trouble for that here. And I can mention any game I damn well please. Not to mention, this place is hugely welcoming to newbies. So much so that I never felt like a newbie. I just flowed in and became one with the site no problem

Well, since it's already zombied...

I don't really remember. I lurked for a while early in 2000. I don't remember if I got into chat right away then, but once I did, that's what sucked me in. Convos with BoB and Wishing Star and Bossker and Chickencha and Scottie et multis al. Good times. I didn't get active in the forums until late 2000 probably. I've been off and on over the years, but never again!

[Forsaken Lover]

I have absolutely no idea. My best bet is I just searched "Final Fantasy Forums" in Google and found it. I did that for several other forums back in the day. I posted on a ton of different FF boards.

[arenzi]

I think I searched for either FF8 or just FF in general found this forum.

[LocoColt04]

What "led" me here like over a decade ago was when our sites were affiliated.

What forced me to join against my will was Freya and Shorty badger badger badgering me until I caved. And then they didn't return the favor because they are mean people.

[Nate]

I searched for FF8 and Final Fantasy. I led me here. I think I used Yahoo to search.

[chionos]

So many people came here because of FF8. That's very interesting.

[Shorty]

Oh, I'm here because of FFVIII as well.
