FFonCrack.com — Member Archive (March 2003)

FFonCrack.com was the 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 and coverage, 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 and run by FieRcE YeD and co-administered by RTV King, running on Ikonboard 3.1.

The FFOC videos were live-action parody skits filmed by FieRcE YeD and friends — real-world re-enactments of Final Fantasy game logic. Known videos include Wakka eating White Castle, a stuffed dog fight ending with a fire-based Nuke spell, and FieRcE YeD in a pink dress portraying 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. Members of the forum community participated in and witnessed the productions.

The site had 26 registered members at the time of capture, approximately March 10–13, 2003 — roughly five weeks after launch. 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, and join dates. PII 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.
