1.) Why did you choose to join FFF?
Honestly I joined FFF for the sole purpose of Final Fantasy XII at first. I was an avid poster at IGN, but I needed a direct source website in order to help my progression in the game. At the time I was looking for ways to get Excalibur as well trying navigate in certain areas of the game (i.e. The great crystal).
So when I came here it turned out I helped more people than helped me, so I thought it would be a great opportunity to sit down and stay a while.
2.) What was the most memorable event you remember from your time as a member of this site?
Event? Well I haven't been in any to be honest. So I've only watched brief stints of Survivor which honestly I believe 2007- 2008 had a bit better results =).
3.) What was your most cherished achievement as a member of this site?
Well personally, its actually getting to know a bunch of people on the forums. I mean seriously when I started here I was still taking classes at the University so I didn't have much time to get to know the good people of the forums. Then the site transitioned over on to the new site.
It wasn't until about six or so months later where I really applied myself to meeting new people on the site and interacting as far as debates go and as well as fellow gaming talks.
So now a days a lot has happened since the beginning.. but what a journey.
4.) Have you won any competitions? If so, please list, or list the one most important to you.
Well only a minor one, the xbox360 achievement point competition hosted on Birth Week. It was a decent win, but only Adri (MLFY) and I really competed. I think any real gamer could of wiped the floor with us both.
5.) Have you ever held a staffing position?
Nope, but its all good =).
6.) Any members you remember that aren't active today? Please list. Don't list all of them if there are too many, just the ones you think were either important/popular in terms of the site populace, or the most memorable.
Wow and honestly I should of written these down, but in short yes. Rydia was one of them, great mod did her job with tact. I wish I got to meet Bei Bei as well, most people regarded her very high in the art department as well as an awesome personality to be around.I remember Darkblade, not the most beloved character, but I honestly didn't know he was bad per se till a year later. There are many more.. girls and guys I should go and research, but honestly.. if you are here now after many years later.. then cheers to you. Seen our ups and downs so to speak.
7.) Most popular site feature today?
Feature? Maybe you should of explained. If it has to do with cosmetic I like the ability to change the skins of the forums.
If it deals with the sub forums and such, then of course I love the Gaea forums. If it wasn't for them, you would probably see a lot less of them. I'm a very passive thinker, so when it comes to anything I feel a little intrigued about debating on here, well I'll toss my two cents in.
I read the news quite constantly too, so I love some good stories people have posted. I honestly miss Aztec for that very reason too, very good about posting debates as well as news.
Also this is the first forum I've seen with a "help me in real life" sub forum. I honestly think it is great for other people. While I may never use it, I do like to help out where I can which is here and there.
8.) Rate the site on a scale of 1 to 5. Criteria are yours to choose. If you want, list those criterion.
5 Need I say more? Great website, the best in fact as far as Staffed comes. I hope to one day see more interaction with the website from others as well as the site to be less laggy.

Honestly it has been a long trip for most folks on this forum. I've seen the many changes in staff, I've seen the site moved once before. I've seen the really "low" downs and the really "high" ups of the site. I've seen quite a few people leave and a lot more people join. I've seen the popular, to the not so popular.. to the diamond in the rough so to speak people come out and post.
I have tried to maintain contacts with most people on here, whether it be through MSN or just the SB, because there are some real quality people. Each of us have a walk though in our own life, so who knows where you will be tomorrow. Here's to seeing you later .. *cheers*
- The only thing that this site needs is a latency tune up. Maybe a memory upgrade and a new network.
