Lanham
The infamous Lanham. Yes, this guy has done it all. He has had a profound effect on the major Final Fantasy Forums. He is widely known my many, and the mere mention of his name makes people like Locke cringe. Ol' Lanny used to be a big time FFOnline member, but it all came crashing down on him a few months ago. As his prowess at FFO increased, there was a certain conflict between him and FFOnline admin, Locke. It appeared that Locke didn't like Lanny, never did in fact. Jealous of his strengthening popularity, he was banned. He was banned many times after for registering aliases, but no one wanted this overly annoying person back. But he is a mere example of how the FFOnline admins treat there members. Lanham has been of great cooperation to this site, and is willing to send me several convos (which will appear in this article later on!). The current one, is a Lanham-Locke Conversation. Here is what went down.
The following AIM conversation appears in it's uneditted form. The real handles for the two are as follows:
Lanham is hakhakhe14
Locke is Sotzergias
Lanham: Hello Locke
Lanham: How many times have you banned me now?
Locke: I enjoy how you assume that I banned you. When did you register again?
Lanham: Locke are you trying to tell me that you've never banned me from FFO?
Locke: Of course not. I merely assumed that you had registered again recently, otherwise you wouldn't be bringing this up. Again and again. Instead of growing up and moving on.
Lanham: Actually I did register again recently
Locke: Well slap my ass and call me Miss Cleo.
Lanham: As Lanham1, Lanham2, Lanham3 etc.
Lanham: I was even IP banned a few times.
Locke: Well, so long as you've got a hobby.
Lanham: I finally found something that I'm good at besides wasting my life on the internet
Locke: Taking flight lessons, are we?
Lanham: Nah I could never crash a plane into FFO
Lanham: Locke have you ever had any homosexual moments?
Locke: I'm flattered, Lanham, honestly I am. But it would never work out betwen us. I don't swing that way and the thought of you repulses me as it is.
Lanham: I'm glad that you always remember me as that annoying little internet creep
Locke: Nah, I won't always remember you. You will, however, always be a little internet creep.
Lanham: Well if you continued to log on to AIM under this screenname until you die you'll always remember me
Locke: Oh, I doubt that. As crazy as it sounds, eventually you'll grow up.
Lanham: Yeah I plan on doing that one of these days
Lanham: Have you ever thought about joining www.shinraonline.com ?
Lanham: Is that a no?
Locke: Sure is.
Lanham: :'(
Locke signed off at 12:05:20 AM.

Ouch, watch as Locke asks Lanham when he registered again. Try as he might, Lanham can never get back to FFO. Instead he is given a public mockery in General Chat, (note that he cannot post there):
Shameful as it seems, this is no isolated incident. I will continue to provide more information, as I receive it.
