Big Important Note - This is a work of Parody, not a real FAQ. The actual
FFML FAQ is skillfully written and updated by Sapphire and Panda, who
deserve our utmost gratitude. Likewise, thanks to WW for giving us the
l>ist to poke fun at. ;)

Welcome to the Not Quite Official FFML FAQ. 

=======================================

*WHAT IS THE FFML?

  A lawsuit waiting to happen.

*HUH?

 >  Just a joke, son. The FFML is a collection of the finest Anime 
Fanfic Writers money can't buy. They're committed to bring you 
the reader entertaining and skillful writing. In fact, many of 
them _have_ been committed for this, but we hear they're 
feeling much better, and will be allowed to use sharp objects 
again any day now.

Isn't that the truth........ ^_-

*WHAT'S C&C?

  Comments and Criticism. Writers like the former, and require 
it to survive. If they don't get enough of it, they either curl into 
a ball and die, or buy a Uzi and take out a K-mart. They don't like 
the latter, and will respond with posts the size of doctorial 
theises as to why they are right and you are wrong.

NNoooo comment.

*OKAY...WHAT HAPPENS IF I THINK I'VE BEEN UNSUBSCRIBED? I 
SEND A TEST MESSAGE, RIGHT?

  No. This is incredibly annoying, takes up bandwidth, and isn't 
very effective. Send a piece of C&C instead.

*YEAH, BUT IN THIS CASE I THINK I'D BETTER SEND A TEST 
MESSAGE.

  No. There are no special cases. Send a bit of C&C instead.

*OKAY, SO I'LL JUST SEND THE TEST MESSAGE NOW....

  For the last $&^$##@*&^&$# time, don't send $*&$#@^) test 
messages.

Get the *hint* people?

*IS THERE AN ARCHIVE FOR THE FFML?

  Yes.

*HOW DO I USE IT?

  No one knows. And Peter isn't telling. 

How DO you use the *&^% thing?!?

    It's about time someone did this, and you did a good job Mike.

"I must not fear.  Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings
total obliteration.  I will face my fear.  I will permit it to pass over me and
through me.  And when it has gone past, I will turn the inner eye to see
it's path.  Where the fear has gone, there will be nothing.  Only I will
remain." - Bene Gesserit saying from Dune

"Wait until they get a load of me." - Joker  from Batman, the movie
