Free Forum Access
Posted: Thu Aug 30, 2007 17:38:05
I am offering free access to your own forum, without the worry of paying anything, or even the hassle of ads or similar. So let's get right to it!
So why are you offering a free service and is there anything hidden I should know about?
Yes, if something is too good to be true, or free, there usually is a catch. Well, you could say the catch is that you give traffic to my site. No big deal, as my real reason is to be active in Carbuncle, my server, and providing free services helps me do that. Think of it like roaming an area casting raise and PL characters all day
So if I sign up, what do I get?
You get a sub forum in the FFXI forum here. In that forum, you will have complete access to do whatever you want with posts. I can even make sub directories for you, if you wish.
You can even have your own group, and have any members who sign up a part of that group, and make your forum have special services for your members only. For example, you might have people who stop by the board be able to read but not post, and make a sub forum that no one can get into except people in your group. With the group, you can have it so anyone can sign up, or they have to request it, or it is hidden and only group members would know or see it.
Your forum, group members, or individual members can have their own icon or avatar, so if your LS/group has a specific icon, you can show it proud!
What do I do to sign up?
All you have to do is sign up for my forum, again for free, and send me a message that you would like to have a FFXI forum. Then, simply tell me the name you want, if you want a group, and the name of the group. I can then talk to you about the permissions you wish to use for your forum and group.
Are there any restrictions?
You may not use your forum for hate (as the mobs will not detect it away from the server ). Do not make slander against other people. Do not use the forum for illegal materials or porn. Use common sense and you should be good!
Note that while not required, I can help in moderating your forum (like in a case you have posts screened by guest or your registered users, for example). You can also appoint someone else in your LS/group to do this for you in your forum.
Any questions feel free to ask me in private or contact me in game or another way!
