Video Thread Synopsis
The major downfall of the original thread was some if not all of the hosts spontaneously exploding. When it came down to videos I was recieving vs figuring out what to do with hosting, I was overwhealmed. Took me a while to think of a viable solution, granted with the help of Sarlos and other posters that nudged me towards that direction.
That direction was FileFront. For legal issues, I will state that I'm not
The plan is to have ALL videos off of a single host. Like that, it's easier for me to not only manage, but also keep up, running, and alive.
Submitting a Video
On the old system, you would either give me the file to find a host for OR you would host the file yourself and I just add the link to the list. While this idea seemed good at first, not everyone is going to keep that host up and running for wave after wave of new-gen posters and players. Most of the problem with the thread is that most of the original makers of the video actually stopped playing the game entirly and felt no need to continue hosting. Heck, Karg the Vile, the original grand poobah of video whoring, departed.
With the new system, we will not have that problem. I, to this day, have no intention of not only not quiting FFXI, but heck, I've made too many friends in Allakhazam to ever turn my back. Thus, my single host; my single FileFront account will keep all of us at the office in dire need of even watching FFXI videos satisfied.
There are a number of ways to get your video on my FileFront account and thus viewed by Allakhazam:
-Get a temp host and then get my attention. Either PM me here, post in this thread just like the good old days, or toss me an IM at the screen name Sir Exodus on AOL Instant Messenger.. I will download the video then upload it, maintaining all videos on one host.
-With said IM service, you may also just send me the file through there.
-You may give me cheese.
This will insure that the quality of the thread remains optimal. Also, due to unforseen yet comical circumstances, my FileFront account has premie access: no wait time for end users!
The Videos
Finally, after many moons of waiting, FileFront has reinstated the File Manager which allows me to better organize the files.

Sorry for the huge delay. This will take time to bring back to the full life it once had, but damn it, I won't give up.
With love,
Sir Exodus
PS
Also, don't forget that FileFront's manager is -still- down. Check the root directory for files that haven't been categorized yet.
