    FFXIDB.com how does it work?!

    How exactly does FFXIDB get its data? is it collecting info on every kill on every world or just one world or only from people that have set it up somehow? I am curious cause i was told scroll of arise drops in a certain kcnm but ffxidb doesnt have it for that one. But it does have it on one of the 2 other similiar kcnm. So it got me thinking about it again on how the data is collected.

    Any help would be nice, sorry for such a lame question. >,>

    The plan was to implement data collection into the FFXIDB plugin, but no one seems to want to do it

    It might also be why the guildwork plugin is for paid members only

    The GW plugin is for everyone, the FFXIDB-related part of the plugin is in no way linked to the premium membership. FFXIDB itself isn't really linked to GW in any way (Stan helped build the skeleton for the site and DB interaction, he hasn't done anything for it since then, which was almost two years ago). The only reason it was included in the GW plugin is because it had huge exposure which helped with fast data collection.

    I was basing off this, where it showed a premium tag to be able to use the /ffxiah and /gw bazaar commands (Though I imagine data collection is performed on all users). http://guildwork.com/windower
