FFXI Players Guide

Whatever crimes bg said https://ffxiclopedia.fandom.com/wiki did that lead to their creation, pales to what they are doing now by covering illegal servers.

At least BG-Wiki won't drown you in ads like ffxiclopedia.

I just went there without an adblocker for the first time in well over a decade. Holy shit how does anybody use that site without one?

Also, being logged out, it reverted to their terrible default skin. So glad pseudomonobook is a thing.

I'm sure it does. However, compared to BG-Wiki (despite the current drama around a certain person), is very much ads-free without a adblocker.

I often view the wiki on a iPad (I often play the game from my couch), so its very noticeable compared to desktop pc.

So you're saying it has no way to fund its running costs.

They subsist on donations from their regulars iirc

Now that Spicyryan is ruining Bgwiki and the owners don't care to remove his admin rights, it's more important than ever to keep other wiki sites updated. Allowing people with deep psychological problems to have admin positions is never a good idea.

Wiki sites are too important to XI to just rely on one.

Uh.... why would they remove his rights? I don't agree with everything he does (cough BALLISTA PAGE cough) but... "deep psychological problems?" Huh? lol? He's got a lot of snark but that's about it.

Yes, we need to maintain all sources of information but there is nothing inherently wrong with BG or the people behind it.
