    Wikia was generous and offered to pay for some or all of the the giveaway if we desired. We originally accepted because, well, why not.

    Disclaimer: This is not my view of the events, only my interpretation of the response from FFWiki

    I believe what they are trying to say is that yes they were hacked and some information was found out, but it was taken out of context (ie Gil offered to pay for the give-away) and the rest was fabricated shopped lies by Taj (or whomever they believe is responsible)


    I think I'm gonna throw up from how spun this was

    BG Wiki needs to come faster.

    Also, on another note, I do think the vast majority of the wiki users are not really members/readers of their forums, just look up the info.

    And I still do not recognize a single name on those forums.

    And someone DOES need to at some point explain to them that the phrase is ACTUALLY "for granted," and there is a reason everyone is cracking up laughing at the granite usage.

    Re: Dear BG

    Fools, the screenshots WERE true, but also taken out of context. I mean its true that I, Ganiwang, used over 2k of your donations to help my jobless self recover from my grief with the aid of hookers and its also true I lied about the diamond mousemat prices, BUT ITS ALL OUT OF CONTEXT GUYS. THAT MAKES IT OK.

    Taken for granted? Who is granted and why are we taking stuff for him?

    Re: Dear BG

    I think some people take being able to spell granite for granite.

    Oh, and if it was out of context, can you put it into context then, that will surely fix all issues if you're right.

    Oh, btw, has Ganiman resurfaced in game? I know people were saying he's kinda poofed.

    This pic also shows what is probably the real reason it took so long for this response to come out... he probably did the same thing here. He probably drafted up a response and sent it back and forth to all parties involved, allowing them to close up any gaps in the story and have people get their shit straight.

    I'm not inclined to believe them, but since Ganiman finally said SOMETHING in response to that last thread, I'm just going to take a wait and see attitude toward this issue from this point on.

    Re: Dear BG

    In all seriousness, I've lost track of the madness. Who originally broke the granite typo? I request their title be changed to SiO2 or something comparable... 8)

    You're reading into the wording too deeply. He was offered money if he 'needs' it, of course he'll respond 'sure I need it'. Please don't make me start coming up with analogies. :/

    Re: Dear BG

    btw, guys. If any of you have issues with what's been said here, I don't suggest you post them in this thread, but rather, contact Ganiman or Gil, or whoever you want to ask directly.

    Posting here gives them a chance to read it and possibly get together and make up a reasonably believable response, even if it's not true. You want to get a response to these questions at a time when they don't have a chance to think up something to say about it.

    Disinclined... acquiesce... request...etc.

    Reason? They've explicitly said if we have questions they will respond on this thread to those questions. I'm sure I'm not the only one who would like to see how they dance around questions like "What happened with the $500/month SE gave you?" and "If those emails are true how can you say there was no missing money when it was explicitly said there was?" Statements like "out of context" can't touch questions like that, or at least will be quite amusing to see them dance around.
