Launch of FAMDB successful. The people of the world rejoice!

Comrades! Thanks to the tireless toil of our comrade engineers, we have today launched the
Folk ARPS Mission Database (FAMDB)!


But what is this miraculous wonder of socialist-scientific progress? Let us answer your question through the well-proven formula of a completely made-up question and answer session!

Comrade Commissar, what is happening?! The ground is rumbling, everything is drowning in this terrible noise? Are we under attack?!
Now now, comrade. Can you not distinguish between the drowning noise of imperialist aggression and angelic music of scientific progress?

Well to be perfectly honest my grandmother's village has been swallowed by a sink hole and--
Hush! Be in awe at our collective achievements in the field of mission-tracking. This magnificent symbiosis of matter and mind is not only a true fit for a socialist agrarian utopia (in the future) but also a much needed overhaul of our outdated missions-thread.

So uh, it's a table?
Well, if that simple term is necessary for your brain to make sense of this marvellous achievement, then yes, it is a table. A database, to be precise.

All this talk of progress has filled me with socialist-agrarian fervour and I just made a mission, what do I do now?
Splendid effort, comrade! Once your mission has passed the usual controls and has been stamped by the delegated offices, a comrade host will ask you to register an account for the FAMDB (if you do not already have one) and create a new entry for your mission. All input fields should be self-explanatory, but comrade hosts are happy to help if you have any questions.

Well, it turns out my mission is not working/needs a revision, what should I do?
After having spent the mandated time in our rehabilitation camp, you will return to the FAMDB to edit or delete any entry you have created. Please notify a comrade host should you update or delete one of your missions.

This is truly an astonishing achievement and I can't help but admire the comrades involved in its creation; who can I thank for this?
First and foremost the Party wants to thank comrade Head for creating both earlier prototypes (which totally did not tumble into the Siberian wastes as burning fireballs) and the finally deployed unit. Comrades Fer, Tigershark and Wolfenswan have also been involved in the creation of former and the final front-end. Special thanks also go to comrade pioneers Kefirz, Lord Penney, MrKev, AlexFake and others who helped test earlier prototypes (which, again, are not emitting dangerous levels of radiation from their crash sites in Siberia).

True heroes of the revolution, I can hardly hold back the socialist tears! On a unrelated note, have you ever noticed how this question and answer format is really hard to end satisfyingly?
I have no idea what you're talking about comrade, but why not have this motivational poster to clear your confusion?
