Let’s see here. We’re guessing you clicked on the “About” button for one of two possible reasons:

1) You’re bored as hell, in which case, cool. Understandable.

2) You’re wanting more information than what you could gather from just looking at the homepage, in which case we’ve put together this FAQ section just for you…

Frequently Asked Questions

What is The Fayetteville Flyer?
It’s a website.

Very funny. Who runs this website?
We do.

Yes, but who are you?
Sorry. We are some folks who live in Fayetteville and have for a long time. OK not as in like 50 years or anything but somewhere in the 20s or so. All of us combined, however, makes it like a thousand years.

Why did you guys start this site?
Because a college town like Fayetteville that is full of music, culture, arts and sports deserves a strong alternative voice of some sort and for some reason, nobody around here has ever gotten around to doing that. So we did it ourselves. Although we have a long way to go to get to where we want to be, we’re taking it one day at a time and doing our best to fill you in on the issues that we think are important and/or simply entertaining.

Why don’t you sell ads?
We aren’t ruling out the possibility of selling ads but right now, it’s not that important to us. Plus, we all have full-time jobs and can barely squeeze in enough time to write, let alone field calls from angry advertisers who are ticked off that their ad is sitting right next to the word “boobies” or “sh*t.” Talking like real people seems to have it’s drawbacks, ya know?

What’s with your Weather Center?
Whaddya mean? Our Weather Center is the bestest. It’s the only weather center we’ve ever seen that isn’t wrong half the time…especially in the winter.

You have a Breaking News section but you aren’t actually breaking the news.
You’re right. Think of a better name and we’ll consider changing it. Until then, it’s “Breaking”, OK?

What happened to your Events Calendar?
We ditched it. We ran some tests and for the most part, nobody was clicking on it. A few clicks here and there but still, not a lot of action. Maybe we’ll start that back up one day when we can actually afford to pay someone to do it. Besides, we were just 95% of the live music listings from The Free Weekly so bookmark those guys and you should be good to go.

How much would I have to pay you to get you to do this website full-time so that there were dozens of updates each day that consisted of exclusive interviews, photography, reviews, opinions and all the other things that you guys are obviously capable of but apparently don’t have time for due to the full-time jobs thing you guys keep whining about?
Hey now, that’s not funny. We dream about that everyday. Stop messing with our dreams, man. Just stop it.

Do you have a Contact Us page?
Yes. In fact, you barely missed it. It’s up there right next to where you clicked to get to this page. In case you’re lazy, though, this part of the sentence will also take you there. Feel free to use it to let us know what you think we need to know. We’ve been known to post your story ideas so send ‘em in. Also, if we’ve upset you (and we’ve certainly done that a few times…sorry ya’ll), don’t hesitate to let us have it. Sometimes we’ll apologize, other times we’ll say, “Hey, that’s the breaks!” Of course, compliments are always a good alternative to complaints.

Oh yeah, I forgot to ask. Is that a razorback mixed with a unicorn in your logo up there?
Hell yes it is. Hell. Yes.
