Probably the only thing that would really make FFF skyrocket in members is when FFXIII is released in the US and Europe. Possibly Crisis Core as well since it is a major spin off of FFVII.

Well in theory FFXII should've done that, but alas it didn't

AG was saying eariler that over 200 members join around October - Novemeber 06. That is quite a lot of members, and that is around the time when FFXII was released in North America.
Were not going to get another wave of new members not until after Christmas. Since all of the kids are going to make an account here asking for help on games. Ah well, a few of them will stay.

Thats what i think too, the November/December period is when most people signed up, although a fair few could have been put off by the...unpleasentness last christmas, i'm sure that we'll recieve a decent amount of active members then..
Look at today though, FFF has been quite active - activity just has its bad days i guess 
Someone said to me on msn you could affliate with Gamefaqs? Does anyone know if that is possible or not?

Uhhh that is impossible.... Gamefaq is affliated with sites such as Metacritic.com and gamerankings.com. These sites get millions of hits everyday. Basically....Gamefaq is elite....FFF isn't.

An affiliation with a popular gaming site would be an ideal scenario, but I have to agree that I doubt it would happen anytime soon. I’m sure their affiliation requirements are pretty impossible to attain at the moment, no to mention FFF would probably be at the bottom of a very long list of others begging for the same.

Oh yeah, blame it on the justice seekers 
Maybe FFF is dying out as a combination of the above things and the current lack of Mass PM Advertising on other sites. Not that I want that to start up again, but I can assure you, that's why FFF became so popular, initially. |

That's how I came to be here. Someone sent me a PM at thefinalfantasy.com telling me that there was this new forum that needed new members, so I took a look and joined. That was back in late July, almost August.

Basically one of the main reasons for the lack of activity, there's only so much you can discuss a game before you end up talking about it again and again. Especially if the two most talked about games are 8-10 years old.
There'll be bursts of new members when new games and stuff come out but FF in general isn't as big as even 5 years ago with other games (and interests) out there. |

Really the only way to hike up the intake of new members is to advertise on other forums, but doing so would be a tad... hypocritical now.
