Need help with the name of this font.

It’s “18…” on main page and the FF logo.

(I’m not affiliated with this site. I found it through a link in MPSIMS)

Thanks.

(Sorry if this breaks some linking rule. Mods delete if so.)

Not every bit of text displayed on a computer is from a commercially available font. In many cases, and I don’t know for sure but I’d guess this is one of them, an artist developed the text as part of the artwork for the logo and no such font exists.

I didn’t find the page at the link offensive but here is another link that complies with the two-click rule for the boards (no direct links to offensive material; you can link to another link, though).
