For Zam.com Refugees

[Feba]

Recently, Allakhazam announced a 'merger' which in fact turned out to be a selling out to RMT, IGE specifically. For more info, see http://ffxi.allakhazam.com/forum.htm...;num=40;page=1

Many users have been outraged by this, to the point of not wanting to use their service anymore, even for free.


As such, it would be highly appreciated if you could help ease us into ffxionline.com. We do not aim to take over, but to join. Help use learn the quirks of the forum here, and we'll try not to act like nubs.

Basically, be civil. Act like normal people, don't get all emo on us and everything will be cool. One thing I like about this forum is that we have very active mods who aren't afraid to "be the bad guy" when needed. Overall this is a pretty tight forum and everyone seems to get along pretty well. /Welcome.
And I can't believe they got bought, thats just insane.
IGE trying to actively get customers?

I've been around here awhile, thanks. I just mostly used Alla because of it's larger user base.

I know a lot of the posters here are older posters, going back to the original users importing it from Japan.


I do want the Alla posters who come here to be respectful and curtious, which is the main point I put there here.

Hey, Feba and hello ffxionline peoples! I've had an account here for a while, but I've never posted. Alla seems kinda weird and creepy now, though. It was a really surprising announcement.

Oh well, nice to meet you folks!

Re: For Zam.com Refugees

I've seen your posts on Allah, and I still believe you wont like it here, but hey no reason to start this off on the wrong foot right?

Welcome refugees! Please present your papers at the door.

I still don't get it, but I'll worry about it as much as any other user rating system. Lets see if this avatar is too big.

I can take the slower pace.


I'd prefer that to helping RMT.

Nice to meet you, too, though.

Re: For Zam.com Refugees

This isn't really recent.

It was actually in November 2005 that they were bought out by IGE.

http://wow.azzor.com/445/truth_about_IGE.php is an interesting read.

We know, we have it in our forum now.


Thing is, it wasn't made public until today. Even their own admins didn't know about it.

Re: For Zam.com Refugees

the rep system here is doesn't really amount to much. just be civil, don't spam and follow the rules.

That being said, welcome to Dreams in Vanadiel.

Is there no equipment DB or is the site just not playing nice with Konqueror?
