Hey guys, I have taken it upon myself to address some concerns about the FAQ System. I am working on making the information a bit easier to read and answering some of the long-standing questions that a lot of newbies ask. This is a public forum to ask question that you would like answered, and would like to appear in the FAQ.
Posts not immediately related to the FAQ will be moved to an appropriate thread.
To start with, here's a few ones that I feel like get asked a lot.
Okay, so keep questions coming. Primarily looking for questions from the mouths of newcomers, but also any commonly heard questions from the vets would be welcome!

I feel this is best answered by Lex's earlier post:
Forum Staff (Admins and Moderators/ Super Moderators) are the people who deal with reports etc. and can do things like change your username. The following people currently fit into that category - Yop, X, Tres, Me, Octo, Mog, Joe, Force, Ghost.
Site Staff (Anything with "site" or "editor" in the user title) deal with the front page and are not forum staff members, but have access to a limited amount of the staff section (they cannot see reports/ mod stuff/ the private feedback forum). So Tets is the Final Fantasy Editor, I'm the Site Director, Force is a Site Author, Vader is the Podcast Director, JT is the Community Manager etc. etc.

As additional information Site Staff have their name appear in cyan and Forum Staff have their name appear in Blue.

A commonly requested one. It works as such. Say you wanted to share a video of the Aerith - Draw My Life with this URL (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AzaK1AG75Lw)
First you use the BBCode tag [ youtube ] [ /youtube ] (sans the spaces). In between those tags, you put the last part of the URL "AzaK1AG75Lw"

Yes. Make your request to the Forum Staff in this thread. Also be aware of the Admin Note included in the first post of that thread:
"If you want your name changed, you must identify yourself in your aka field fully enough that a regular member who had been absent for a few weeks would reasonably be able to identify you upon returning. If you have not identified yourself in your aka field within a few days of having your name changed, your name will be changed to your most frequently known identity at a staff member's discretion. There will be no exceptions to this rule."
The AKA Field can be edited in the User Control Panel - (User CP > Edit Your Details > Additional Information).
If your request for a username change is a matter of protecting your privacy (e.g. you don't want a public record of your previous username), please create a thread in the Private Feedback Forum to make your request.
