FFonCrack.com was the direct successor to FinalFantasyFanatic.com, launched February 3, 2003 after FinalFantasyFanatic.com went offline in late 2002 due to hosting costs. It was conceived as a continuation of the same community, but with a sharper focus on the FFOC (Final Fantasy On Crack) parody videos that had built a following on the original site. The site was owned by FieRcE YeD and co-administered by RTV King, running on Ikonboard 3.1.
THE FFOC VIDEOS
---------------
The FFOC videos were live-action parody skits — real-world re-enactments of Final Fantasy game logic, filmed by FieRcE YeD and friends. Known productions include:
• Wakka eating White Castle
• A stuffed dog fight ending with a fire-based Nuke spell
• FieRcE YeD in a pink dress as Aeris, being stabbed by Sephiroth
Note the spelling: Aeris. Not Aerith. FieRcE YeD stands by the original North American localization to this day and will not be moved on the subject.
THE ARCHIVE
-----------
A member directory and select profile pages were captured approximately March 10–13, 2003 — about five weeks after the site launched — at which point 26 members had registered.
Unlike the FinalFantasyFanatic.com forum backups, no post data from FFonCrack was saved locally. This archive represents member profiles only: screen names, post counts, member groups, avatars, AIM and ICQ handles, signatures, locations, and join dates. PII including real names and email addresses has been redacted.
Additional Wayback Machine captures may exist and could allow for forum reconstruction in the future, similar to the IB 2.1.9 restoration, but this represents all available data at this time.
