Last update: Jul 14, '03 Added a handful of links and tinkered with the wording of a couple of the sections.

Section 1: Frequently Asked Questions

1.1 - What is AGFFH?

Alt.games.final-fantasy.hentai is a Usenet newsgroup that was created in mid-November 1997 to handle the unwanted hentai content that was causing a great deal of angst in alt.games.final-fantasy.

1.2 - What is Final Fantasy?

Final Fantasy is the name of a long running series of video games (plus an anime series and a CG movie) from Squaresoft.

1.3 - What is hentai?

Hentai is a Japanese word meaning perversion (among other things), that is used by international fans when referring to erotica done in the Japanese anime style.

1.4 - What can I post to AGFFH?

Discussion of hentai, video games, and anime, plus fanfiction (both lemons and non-adult fanfiction are okay), and links to pictures are all fine. Off-topic conversations are common among people who have been here awhile, but try not to start any if you're new. The ability to go radically OT is a privilege you need to earn. ^_^

1.5 - What can't I post to AGFFH?

Binaries (pictures, movies, executables, etc.) aren't allowed, as we aren't a binary group. Topics of discussion that have their own newsgroups devoted to them should generally be taken there instead of bringing them up here (unless they come up in the natural flow of conversation).

1.6 - What rules should I follow when posting?

The rules are pretty much the same as most other newsgroups: No spamming, trolling, flaming, crossposting, posting in HTML, etc. Just be courteous, use some common sense, and try not to make an ass out of yourself. ^_^

1.7 - Can you send me pics?

We don't e-mail pictures to people. If you ask *politely*, someone may post a link to what you're looking for or post the pictures in one of the binary groups (listed in the links). Of course, before you ask people to post stuff for you, try a search engine or the links in the FAQ. Unless it's from some really obscure series or of a very minor character, hentai isn't hard to find at all.

1.8 - What do I do if I don't get the binary groups?

Send an e-mail to whoever is in charge of your ISP's newsgroup service and request that they pick the groups up.

1.9 - I'm stuck in one of the games, can you help?

There are a lot of websites that give walkthroughs to video games, try one of those. (GameFAQs at http://www.gamefaqs.com is a good one.)

1.10 - Can you help with technical problems?

While there are many tech-handy people in the group, a far better thing to do if you're having problems installing/playing a game would be to ask for help from the company that put out the game you're having trouble with. They usually give a number for tech problems in the manual, but if you can't find one, try e-mailing them from their website.

1.11 - Why is so much of the hentai I find censored?

Japanese law prohibits the graphic display of genitals, so both erotic art and adult films are censored by the people producing them. This censoring can't be removed, so don't go asking people to try to decensor pics for you.
