In my years I have only created two forums, both of which have had nearly one million posts. The other one was lost due to a server crash years ago, but the gaming/general forum still remains: http://www.funender.com/finalfantasy/forums/index.php It is dated since I haven't had the chance to update with the new simple look of websites today, but people still seem to enjoy it Plus it has a built in RPG game that a friend and I have modified to be more interactive. You will find a lot of friendly members and our moderators do a good job taking care of spam and trolls. Please let me know what you think and feel free to join and post if any topics interest you.
Here is a comment ---- Could be awesome if you guys had a "members online" counter at the footer.. Also it looks very nice.
No love for Final Fantasy 14? Sure it hasn't been doing too well, but it's picking up again with all the recent changes.
