If he threatens to remove all of his Yakuza guides fandom will surely reverse this decision, if he doesn't CyricZ will have to live with his decision forever.

The future of humanity literally falls onto Cyric's shoulders

Cyric owns the copyright on his guides, so if they did he could just sue and become the new owner of the site

You know what you have to do, Cyric

He doesnt. They are just suggesting he uses the threat of removing his vast amount of quality guides to blackmail fandom into reversing their recent decision.

It wont work. Im pretty sure once you post a guide it becomes the property of gamefaqs.

Everyone, including CyricZ, get to make their own decisions.

I personally believe everyone should be pulling their guides now, if not because of what Fandom is done, but for what appears to be inevitable. Don't let them profit from your work as they sink the ship.

But if he wants to leave them up that's up to him.

I would have pulled everything from this site the moment I learned of Fandom's takeover.

The current incident notwithstanding, I could not abide a company like Fandom profiting off of my work.

Nah, it's more like you make a guide, it's yours, but they host it on a site. It's technically not the site's, and you can take it down at any moment that you want.

Maybe its just me, but it kind of sounds like he is implying he is leaving GameFAQs. I don't recall seeing him post today at all.

They're actually extremely popular. I've seen CyricZ mentioned on multiple different reddit threads because of them.

That is absolutely the case. Those things are obviously not facebooks and users can remove those at any time and could sue if they don't. One nice thing about this will be your permanent removal once you get an inevitable purge.

People already use the internet wayback machine to see old guides that were accidentally deleted when GameFaQs did their server migration years ago.

Unless something has changed, FAQ writers grant GameFAQs a license to host the FAQ but retain the copyright. There are some exceptions to that, like the Bounty program and maybe some contests where GameFAQs is granted a perpetual license to hist the FAQ, but other than that the license is absolutely revokable.
