Q – What does “FAQ” stand for?
A – Frequently Asked Questions
Q – How do you pronounce it?
A – It is pronounced “fack,” so stop spelling it out because you are identifying yourself as an internet noob.
Q – Are you going to make fun of me for saying “F-A-Q”?
A – Yes, as soon as you are out of earshot.
Q – What is Halffull.org?
A – Halffull is a website for people out in the world who have no website of their own. If you don’t have a place to call your own and Slashdot thinks your articles are too retarded for their front page, you can join Halffull instead. We’re like Cheers, except that everyone here is Norm.
Q – Are you saying anyone can join and post articles?
A – Yes! In fact, we encourage it. Sign up and introduce yourself.
Q – Is there a theme to the website?
A – No, each author brings something different to the site. Redshift is more technology related, Blue Midget is more general, and Hulk is drunken political/corporate ranting – he’s like Darth Vader, but without the suck. We think it’s better to have a variety of things to read, so you aren’t reading the same regurgitated material over and over. If you want to become an author, we encourage you to bring your own flavor to the table.
Q – Do I have to pay?
A – No, although you will be required to sell your soul to the devil and sacrifice goats on a quarterly basis. Just kidding, it’s free.
Q – So, how does this work?
A –If you are new to us, your post will be submitted to redshift. He will review your article, fix your horrible spelling and punctuation, create more paragraphs wherever he feels is necessary because he’s the evil grammar Gestapo – not that I’m bitter or anything – and then, he will post it. Most importantly he wants to make sure your article doesn’t suck. After you click to post, it may take a little bit of time before your article is shown, but no more than 24 hours.
Q – Can I really post anything I want?
A – Sort of. While you can go on a huge rant about nearly anything you want, obviously we do not allow topics illegal in the US. If you write up an article about how much you’d love to get your hands on Michael Jackson’s little black book and have been looking for a hot 10 year old in your area to hook up with, we’re going to call the police, and then you can enjoy 5 to 10 as someone’s girlfriend. You get the idea.
Q – Will I always have to wait for redshift to OK my posts?
A – When he gets to know you a bit better and is comfortable with your topics, he’ll elevate your user level to a higher number. This site goes to 11.
Q – Does this site have a message board?
A – No, under each article is a comment section. We encourage readers and authors to use it. You don’t even have to register to use the comments section, although it makes us feel cool if you do.
Q – When I register for the site, it asks me for my email. Are you going to keep it or sell it?
A – Neither. We don’t need no stinkin’ emails. In fact, redshift is planning the doom of all spammers and people who sell email addresses as we speak.
Q – Thanks!
A – No problem. Welcome to Halffull.
I call shenanigans. The question about writing styles-redship and bleu midget get top billing? Oh that’s right. I mispelled your names. ON PURPOSE! Count the number of things written. Count it. Redshift has written maybe…three posts? And they’re all about techy-stuff. Blah blah blah I made a new system on the something engine and there’s more graphics on the site. I’ve seen how this site operates. It’s a sheep in a wheely-cage. Literally. That’s all it is! He makes it sound SOOOO hard, like only other techies like him could do it. Sheep in a wheely-cage people. Look behind the curtain. And Blue midget? Bah. She thinks she knows anger. Her angry posts make me about as afraid as the bad guy from Battlestar Galactica (the original) who sold out his human brethren to rule the Ceylons and preceeds to beg Adama to spare his life on Kobol. Granted, Adama ruled despite being a ninety-year-old-man. The point remains. I deserve top billing. It should be re-named Hulk.org. Oh that’s right, Red-SHIP and BLEU midget, I’ve thrown down the gauntlet. FLAME WAR!!!!!

Oh by the way, last night I went over to your apartment and borrowed your corkscrew, and now I’m drinking a delicious red wine without you.
Take that, HLUK!

Boo-yah!
