    Default SCANDAL!

    In celebration of Scandal Day, I'd like to know whether there have been any great scandals during the history of Eyes on Final Fantasy.

    Also, what is the greatest (or worst) scandal in regular history?

    Rainecloud made an awesome scandal thread back in the day, but I think it's gone now.

    And yeah, the April Fools thing is easily the biggest scandal that's ever happened here.

    Sometimes I wonder what my life would be like if I were as great as Paulo Wanchope.

    Remember that one time when they one guy died and everyone was all, "wtf" but then he wasn't really dead and that one chick flipped out over it and got banned.

    Yeah, I remember that time.

    That time that some sneaky bugger gave Psychotic a fake cid's knight title and everyone went crazy in the feedback forum.

    Back around 2002, some guy representing a particularly coarse fan site called BetaFF (which by all accounts appears to now be defunct) came around asking for serious dirt on the scandalous interior goings-on of Eyes on Final Fantasy. Most of the responses he received were naturally the stuff of crappy injokes, but one way or another, he came up with enough material to do a parodical EoFF exposé back at his site. It was by no means artful writing--a lot of talk of the special relationship between gay men and hamsters, as I recall--but it was certainly impressive enough to be met with indignation from a lot of the same awful jerks who had already proven their lack of any grasp upon comedy. Then the <i>real</i> crazies got to talking about taking this scum to court for smearing our wonderful site with such awful slander. "Or wait," they thought, "is it libel?" Anyway, BOU responded by becoming a BetaFF advocate and member, with the banner in his signature and everything. In retrospect, it was a clear sign that he would soon become entirely too clever for this dump.

    First off, why did I read all that?
    Second I find it very funny that Kaishi never posted in that thread.

    There is the whole doomgaze thing, but didn't seem to last very long.

    I don't really remember any "scandals" other than ff babe. I don't know why people still sing her hymns of praises.

    I know of a few large scandals, but since they're serious ones, it's no fun talking about them here. Some of them I'm also simply not able to talk about, because of that whole "don't tell anyone" rule that requires me not to tell anyone.

    Of course, Rainecloud's scandals are the ones that spring to mind for me, along with April Fools stuff. Psy may wish to bring up the Elections, too, but I stand firm that I am so, like, totally cooler than he is.

    When I saw this thread, I wondered how many posts it would take for my special relationship with Loony RoBert to be mentioned. It's not a scandal if you don't keep it quiet, kids.
