Don't know about Wymsy or SaS, but I know SaS abandoned FEP. I think they had to essentially hijack the site to try to repair years of damage on the old obsolete board.
Crimea River was a girl? o.O

This right here makes me so happy. I've been with FEP for 6 years now, and as of right now, I think I know, at most, two of you from the past. I don't know nearly everyone on this right now, or rather I don't know any of these current identities and actually probably DID know you a while back with a different name. In all of my time with FEP, I've change my name once. Wanna know what the change was? linkhardin -> Linkhardin
Yep, all I did was capitalize my original name.
All of the constant name-changing made me just not want to be on the forums all-together. It's the same reason why I pop up as little as I do now. If everyone keep the same name, or similar name -- or even if their name changed once in the past, like, 2 months, I would be able to create the same friendships that I had with FEPers in the past.
If the name-changing is truly limited, I will be extremely active here(like 4-10 times a day, just like 6 years ago). I used to talk on the forums all the time. The only reason why I'm actually still here is for two reasons only: FE has always been my favorite game, so feel a sort of connection with the site; I know the community as a whole. I can't identify you personally, but I know all of you were awesome, and interesting people with similar interests to me. I really didn't wanna let go of this site, even when there wasn't much left for me, and now I have hope that there is a reason to continue holding on.
Sorry for the rant, but I truly mean all of this. This single-handedly tore me apart from the site, so now I hope I can be brought back.
I know I don't usually say much even though I really want to, but now you know why.

I think you will be pleased to find out this next bit of information. @Linkhardin
There's no name change function here on the new forums. And in all of my time here as admin, on the brand new forums, not once have I received a single request to change anyone's name.
^This right here is a welcome change.
But that does not mean there won't be name changes. You may change a grand total of 3 times a year. Once done, you may not change the name until 3 months. And barring any holiday events or whatever is planned, once you use up the 3 name changes, you may not change again until the new year.
I will be proposing this to fensti. I don't want to see an overabundance of name changes ever again. It's generally confusing and I'd rather not lose members over it.
RE: Word - Linkhardin - 11-11-2014
3 name-changes are nothing. I am more than content with that. It was only frustrating when a person changed their name, like 7 times in one month simultaneously with other members, creating my mass confusion. With the seldom name changes, I would once-in-a-while notice a name I don't recognize, and then quickly check the name history. I am fine with that. I really appreciate this.
RE: Word - Cheffy - 11-12-2014
I find it amusing that me popping in causes a flurry of staff discussion. Happened last time too. come to think of it, happens in most groups I look in to.
I decree myself to be the leadership magnet and general eye of the shitstorm. Bow to my glory.

RE: Word - Falaflame - 11-14-2014
Well, general eye of the shitstorm is in the past here. I like the "leadership magnet" idea better honestly. We need more of those.

So if you guys clone him, I can kill the clones without having to worry about consequences?
RE: Word - Falaflame - 11-17-2014
No, you get twice the consequences. o:
RE: Word - Mizu - 11-18-2014
And all of the other clones would gang up on you. Dozens of Cheffys (Cheffies? XD) would take over the world.

Guys, guys... The nation of Chefftopia desires only peace. Dissenters are welcome to visit our copokie vats. They are 10% recycled organic matter after all.

Rofl "Recycled" isn't something I want in a consumable.
