Let's play a game. It's called "no snide comments about the previous update saying there won't be any more updates and that I'm retiring from FFXI." You go first. Ready? Go!

November 5th

This is the last update. Anything that's not up now probably never will be. I've retired from FFXI. No long speeches or vague promises of coming back some day. I just hope you enjoy the guide in what will probably be its final form.


September 29th

Checking up on the site stats and hits per day and stuff, I see that August and September have been very high. And more people are beginning to recognize me in-game again. What's going on here? I haven't touched the content in months.
>_>
You're all making me feel guilty about shutting this down.
<_<
Fine fine. If I can ever get some assaults done so I can do the blasted ToAU guide I'll go back to regular updates. If you know anyone on Sylph that wants a WHM, BLU, or BRD for some assault missions, put in a good word for me or something.

Oh, and I didn't quit. Or rather, I didn't quit forever. I'm still around. But my linkshell is very lazy when it comes to sea and assaults. Sigh. Merit parties ftw?

Kind of important annoucement

This site will no longer be updating due to my lack of interest in FFXI.

I’m not sure if I’m quitting the game right now. It’s a definite possibility, but I don’t want to say that I am and then have to eat my words later. So I’ll just say that I’m seriously considering it.

I will leave the site up, as it is in its current condition. Even though the information has been eclipsed (read: stolen and had the life sqeezed out of it by editors of FFXIwiki) by other sites, enough people have responded to it that I must have done something right. So it will stay up. Linsaran, the administrator of the website, will be able to decide what to do with it. If paying the bandwidth that supports the site is too much of a hassle then he may remove it, though I still have offline copies of everything in case it needs to be put up somewhere else.

Please don’t send me any more emails or messages about FFXI or this site. I am, as I said, not updating the site and so I’m not looking for information to fill the few holes that remain. And honestly I don’t really want to talk about FFXI stuff right now.

If people won’t leave me alone about it I’ll have to take the site down. I don’t like threats though so just, ya know, leave it be.

It’s been fun guys. Thank you all for the support and feedback you have given me over the past 8 months or so.

For the Indefinite Future I have no Intention of taking this site down, I'll continue to do as much as I can to keep tabs on what's happening with the forums etc. I don't think I could replace Erecia if I wanted to and have no delusions about trying, but as much as possible I'll try and provide advice and/or support for "For Glory"

April 23rd

Treasures of Aht Urhgan is out! Everybody is doing ToAU! Nobody is doing CoP! Well the For Glory site will stay up as normal of course, and I will update things where I find it, but Treasure of Aht Urhgan the big buzz.

To answer the only question I've been asked this month, yes, I'm making a ToAU guide. Check out A Land Besieged. It's mostly empty right now, but so was For Glory when I started it and I'm still amazed on how far this site has come. Also, I set up some For Glory Discussion Forums for people to talk specifically about the site and both expansions. It's not going to rival Allahkhazam or KillingIfrit or any other major sites, but it's not supposed to.


April 11th

Not a word on how late this is... VERY interesting things are in the works. Probably in the next couple of days. Or even tonight, who knows!

Enough people willing to donate a few bucks have responded so I'm going to be setting up a Paypal account sooner or later. Thanks!

One other thing... I'm NOT putting up glitches and exploits onto the site. While I find them interesting, that crosses a line in my mind between sneaky planning and outright abusing the game to the point of actually cheating. Please don't send me any more emails on how you glitch your way through the mammets or Diabolos or the airship fights or whatnot.

Time for an update on a sensative topic: money.

Up until now Linsaran has been paying for the site out of his own pocket. He doesn't mind; in his own words, he uses it for more than this CoP site. However the continuing popularity of this site chews up his bandwidth like nobody's business and so he has had to up the hosting plan. This costs more money per month. He and I are looking for ways to cut costs and support the site, not just today, but in the future as well.

You may notice there are google adds at the bottom of the page now. An unfortunate reality of online stuff is that it takes money to keep websites going. This site has gotten a bazillion hits and every month our bandwidth usage comes close to doubling. The google add pays us for traffic received and will help cut costs, I hope. If anything in the google add looks cool, feel free to check it out and help support the site.

If you would be at least REMOTELY interested in sending us a few dollars (via paypal or a similar system) to help support the site, please say so in an email. If I get more than a couple responses I may set that up. YOU DON'T HAVE TO COMMIT TO ANYTHING IN THE EMAIL! Just if you think you'd be willing! But don't send the email if you're not even remotely interested in sending cash.

Our monthy costs are still rather low so only a few people would need to send in a few dollars every so often to keep things running fine. It's not my intention to make any money off this site. Any and all money received would go directly into the site upkeep. With enough support we could vastly expand the scope of the site, including a lot more screenshots than I have now, a great new section for ToAU, and who knows what else. If we can't raise the money we will make due with what we can, but the site's increasing popularity will make it difficult to expand. I will keep this site online and updating as long as I can mangage.

If only a few people sent five bucks, we'd be set for a fair amount of time. Please, at least consider it.
