このフォーラムはFFXIAH運営部が独自に開発した掲示板との事です。
（簡単な作りで公開したのは故意であり、今後色々機能追加予定らしいよ～）

現状では制限として「登録したユーザーとしてログインしてる」と
「キャラ登録を1人以上すませている」の2つの条件を満たした方以外は、
このフォーラムには投稿できません。　
一応登録してある全てのキャラからどれで投稿するかは選べるので、
投稿したいけどメインキャラここで晒したくねえ！って人は、
前もって倉庫を一人登録すると良いかもしれません。

今の所、バグ報告はBugs板、要望・希望はSuggestions板までお願いします。

Japanese......if only i could speak the language ; ;

This forum is the bulletin board that the ffxiah staff developed independantly.
(It was intended to be simple to allow additional functionality in the future?)

Currently you are prompted "you must login in order to post/reply or be a registered user", that "1 or more it has made the キャラ register be completed", if you are not logged in or registered then you cannot contribute to this forum.

From all キャラ which are registered once you contribute with either one, it can choose because, However we would like to contribute, we would like to bleach メインキャラ here, well! As for っ て person, In advance, when the warehouse the one person is registered, perhaps it is good.

The current place, as for bug report the Bugs board, we ask demand desire to the Suggestions board.

basically he/she is asking for an bulletin board similar to the one that was
available to the japanese users of this site before the bbs was taken down due
to vulnerabilities within the forum coding?

before if these players wanted to contribute all they had to do was come in and
post their thoughts, ideas, chit chat without having to register. now in order
to do that the forum requires you to be a registered user.

(Hmm... one post disappeared into dev/null... strange... here goes again....)

I was merely giving the JP users a heads-up; I was NOT asking for an anonymous-friendly board to be recreated. (Though I like how everything fits in with this forum, I will have to admit that the JP users' post rate will be unbelievably low, as they latch onto and never let go of online anonymity which they call "privacy"...)
If I had wanted an anon-friendly board, I would have already written so in English on the Suggestions forum ;)

Here, let me type up what I meant in the original Japanese post in my own English words...

-----------------
This forum apparently was developed independently by the FFXIAH admin squad.
(They said that it was simple on purpose, and plan to upgrade in the future with various features!)

Right now, this forum has limitations - you must be logged in as a registered user, and you must have at least one character verified in order to post.
Since you can choose which character (of all characters you have already verified) to post as, if you're one to say that you want to post here but you don't want to show off who your main character is, it might be a good idea to verify one of your mules before you make that post.

For now, please post bug reports to the Bugs forum, and requests and wishes to the Suggestions forum.

I think these measures were in response to the attacks on the other bbs from the Chinese gil sellers/hackers.

These boards were home-grown and written by Matt after we discovered that Chinese RMT were attempting to hack user accounts through exploits in phpBB and other generally available board software. Even with our own forums, however, leaving the boards open to anonymous posts would still allow RMT to post links to sites containing malicious code, phishing sites, etc. (A la what happened to many FF wiki sites.) As an added measure of protection for our users, we therefore have made it so only registered and verified characters can post on the boards.

Yes, it's a hassle, but that's the point. It ensures that someone posting on the boards as a particular character is, in fact, that character in-game. As RMT have the bad habit of getting continually banned, going through the hassle of registering an FFXIAH.com account and verifying a character is hopefully too much for them. And if they do try any shenanigans, we can use our data to publicly kick them in the shins.

The problem, however, is Japanese users. Japanese users have grown up using JP style message boards, which typically employ flat-form, non-threaded layouts, and also allow anonymous posts. Many Japanese users do not like to have to register to state their opinion about something, as anonymous contribution has become a backbone of JP internet culture. We are unsure how to cater to both these users, as well as maintain a secure site that can be trusted to keep our users' info safe. One idea that's been suggested is to still require a verified account and character, but give posters the option of hiding their character info from other users on the right side of each post.
