Advertisers, second accounts, and I think another reason is Final Fantasy is a big thing in which people love, love fanatically or hate. Since EoFF is incredibly popular, it attracts lots of people regularly in a large range.
Hate results in trolls obviously who get banned quickly. Loving it fanactially results in fanboys who will flame the hell out of anyone who disagrees their game isn't the greatest, the ages of people on this forum tend to be 13-16, which can mean immature, insensible members, depending, which makes their arguing skills normally more primitive and insulting to opposing views in not only FF forums but in GC and everywhere else. So we can have flaming, stubborn, teens going around the forums making idiotic posts. Which can lead to trouble in EoEo. Since EoFF Staff doesn't take that crap, they get banned quickly, leaving the more mature...or well, members who are more clever with their antics :rolleyes2 in the majority. I don't know how accurate this is, considering I thought this up in like 2 minutes.
If I were baned I'd regret it and want to come back straight away. It'd really tick me off if I couldn't. I guess it's fair enough though. However, some people who have been banned were generally nice people, and just said a few things that were unappropriate. It's a shame.
Assuming that was targeted to all the links in my signature it's the one called Wolve's Den, though I hold a staff position on all the links in my sig. xD
I get what you mean, there are members I miss who were quite nice, like Chris. I still think 2 years is quite leniant.
Yea well if i were part of the creators of such a nice forum and someone came to it to trash the place then i would want them out so most bannes are more than fair!
There is no one here who got banned just for saying something inappropriate. They get warnings and a PM first advising them to not do what they were doing/saying anymore. In fact they get much more than just one PM. When they do eventually get banned it's usually when many many PMs were not cutting it and the member was still doing what he/she was asked not to do.
Others that you think might not have done anything very terrible actually did, but their post or thread that contributed to their ban would have been removed from the view of regular members.

It used to be that a ban from EoFF was very permanent, but we decided that someone who gets banned when they are 13 or 15 might actually mature enough in 2 years to become a member who might contribute something so we relaxed the forever rule. Of course, just because a banned member requests to come back does not mean that he will. He first needs the approval of ALL Staff.
