Final Fantasy XI Twitter ReFriender System Is Dead
People can now no longer use the ReFriender Twitter system to find people to play Final Fantasy XI with online. Square Enix took to Twitter to confirm the system is dead. It blamed changes with the way how the social media service works as to why it could no longer keep running. Essentially, it's now impossible for users and players to log in and register.
Here's the official announcement. The official website for the Final Fantasy XI ReFriender service also shut down and now displays a similar message.
As of today, the #FFXI ReFriender system will be discontinued due to changes on Twitter's behalf which prevents users from registering or logging in to the service.
Thank you for using the ReFriender and your continued support of FINAL FANTASY XI. pic.twitter.com/ExwKOA5krA
