Has TFF gotten boring?

Is this why you are banned. Phantom?

BTW, Che is the one awesome enough to post spam topics to up his post count and only get by with just it being locked.

But I still <3 you Che!

I don't think this place is boring at all. New people joining all the time and there is always posts.

There were many reasons with Phantom being banned; this thread was only a small piece in the whole ordeal.

TFF's not really boring anymore. Last year it was really slow because no one posted much and the userbase was mostly little kids like fate and ralz posting it up, but once people like Che, Gypsy, Block, Kisuke, and Dodie showed up, they put a lot of activity to the forums, which adds more activity.

TFF will start buzzing with a load of new topics once Final Fantasy XIII is released and if anyone can get in the beta for FFXIV. Continuing with FFXIV that game is supposedly being released later this year so with two main FFs coming (granted one is a MMO) there will be a lot more activity.

I think there a good amount of activity (and I do have a question regarding TFF's activity with other FF community sites later on) with certain users being the driving force, though we are missing one - Kilala. Probably the toughest part is creating unique topics to be discussed as a lot have already been by the older members.

Now, on to my question that is directed towards people who are apart of other Final Fantasy communities besides TFF. This question does depend if "you", the responder, are apart of these communities but here I go. Would "you" say that FinalFantasyForums.net and FFShrine.org are more active than TFF?

I ask this because of the amount of users that are on are have stopped by at each site. Currently there are 20 members on finalfantasyforums, not that much more when compared to TFF but 174 of their members have stopped by today. I'm unsure if we ever get around 170 unique members to stop by any day.

FFShrine is a totally different beast as their are currenlty 156 members on which is way more than either TFF or FinalFantasyForums. Interestingly though the most users they have ever had at once is 486 which is lower compared to the 755 and 745 by FinalFantasyForums and TFF respectively. It also says on FFShrine that there are over 27 thousand active members; do they calculate their active users differently or is it similiar to ours?

One thing that stands out in FFShrine is the 1.3 million posts that site has compared to the 600k + at FinalFantasyForums and 400k + at TFF. Are those two sites considerably older than TFF?

I remember someone saying that most other Final Fantasy sites are dead compared to TFF, are those two an exception?

We'd have that many "active" members if I didn't prune off inactive accounts with less than 100 posts every six months. I have the forums "activity" counter set much shorter... like, you have to have logged in within the past month for the counter to consider you active. Most other forums have that counter set for longer time periods.

Also, this forum has had WELL over a million posts since 1997, but we go through massive spring cleanings every couple of years. Before the upgrades Fuzz did a couple years ago, we didn't really have as much space and bandwidth, so we had to get rid of old stuff periodically.
