Learn what kind of emails the FAQ author accepts, what they won't accept, and the rules for using their FAQs on your website. Get the details here!

Alright, so you've got questions or maybe even some helpful info for the FAQ author, Brett "Nemesis" Franklin. It's good to know what kind of messages he's looking for. Think of it like sending a postcard versus a chain letter – some are welcome, some are definitely not.

Emails He'll Gladly Accept:

  • Got a small question that isn't covered in the FAQ? Send it his way.
  • Have some comments or thoughts to share? He's all ears.
  • Any contributions that could genuinely help other players out? That's a big yes.
  • Spotted a mistake in the FAQ and have a correction? That's super helpful.
  • Wondering if you can use this FAQ on your own website? He's got specific rules for that, so ask away.

Emails He Will NOT Accept:

  • Save your breath for hate mail – it's a hard pass.
  • If your contribution is so small it won't help anyone else, it's probably not worth sending.
  • No chain letters, please.
  • Anything written entirely in ALL CAPS is a no-go.
  • Don't demand an answer; he's not a customer service line.
  • He won't email the FAQ to you directly. You can download it yourself.
  • Unconstructive criticism won't be entertained.
  • Asking questions that are already clearly answered in the FAQ is just a waste of everyone's time.

Using the FAQ on Your Website (Webmasters, Listen Up!):

Brett used to be stricter, but he's changed his mind. Now, you can use his FAQs on your site, but there are a couple of crucial steps:

  1. You MUST email him first and ask permission. Seriously, don't skip this.
  2. Your site needs to be legit. He wants to make sure it's a real website, not just some random page.
  3. Always give him full credit. Make it clear that he's the author.

If you decide to just take his FAQs without asking, be warned: legal action will be taken. He's had enough of people snagging his work without consent. So, play by the rules, and you'll be fine. The answer is clearly stated above if you want to use his FAQs – just follow the steps!

Important Note: This FAQ can only appear on specific sites without needing to ask permission each time:

  • Cheat Code Central (www.cheatcc.com)
  • GameSages (www.gamesages.com)
  • Vgstrategies.com

And a final, important reminder from Brett: "Don't Do Drugs!"
