Do you automatically fan people back if they fan you? Why or why not?

Basically, what are your requirements for adding people?

GaGaBoi said:
I fan people If I like they're personality (which is rare around fanpop) or if they are a member of 1 of my 5 spots I require for fanning.



But I gain fans everyday, and rarely fan back.



I realise I am currently a fan of ALOT of people, but I didn't adopt the system that I have now until a few months ago. if I could unfan them all (which I wont) I'd only re-fan around a quater of them.

I agree. If people fan me then that's nice but I need to make sure there not like a rude person or anything. Like if they talk to me than I'll fan back...and stuff.

Yep. Unless I have a reason to dislike them.
I feel that if they've taken the time to fan me, then I should return the favour.

I fan everybody back who fans me. I don't see the big deal in being selective. It's just nice and it's a habit for me. I don't care if we have absolutely nothing in common, since it's rare for the average user to have more than 5 spots in common with me. But if I see somebody doing something on here that I don't like, I will remove them.

Yeah, I do the same thing. If they fan you, it's only nice to fan them back, but if they're being a jerk, then you don't want to be friends with them.

Depends.
If the user has alot of fans(more than 100), props, caps ect, i won't, if they are moderate (like 50-100 fans), it depends on their personality, if its 25-50 fans, i will and if they have <25 i will fan them and give them a prop :)
These are just guidelines.

Well you know, many times it isn't even a person's fault when someone fans them. XD Yeah I realize this is an old answer, I just wanted to say this.

I fan back when I see that we have things in common. I don't fan everyone back because, way too often, people fan people just so they can get the fan back and up their fan number. There's thirty users who fanned me that I have nothing in common with.

Occassionally, someone will fan me who I know I don't like. As it's been said: why fan someone I'm not a fan of?

Sounds a lot like me. I always give a prop just to be polite, but I sometimes don't fan people back for ...reasons.

Somany times never..!
Why?
This place a Fanatic site? - Yes
I think All members are choice a Category - Example : Music.That all people free.I accept.But Good think.If a member (in Music category) can be fan of GAMES category's member

AND

This same people can submit a answer(comment) ONLY WITH a "Hi.../Haha.../LoL.."

This people's target very very different...
Example:to Make spam,to win prop...etc.

Openly Member's intrests.Im in xyz category.Yay !
I will fan of the Food category's member.This is logic for you?

This is only a example.Very easy example.

Thank You..!

x-menobsessed26 said:
I'll add someone back everytime because I feel like they were being generous enough in the first place to add you so you should add them back. I'll add people first when I like how they talk with other people (aka polite and grammar sensitive), and we share some of the same interests. If I find out that they really weren't what they seemed and I really don't like them anymore, I have un-fanned someone for it.

I always add people back because I am just that kind of person. Also cause if they had the guts to add you and say "hey, I wanna get to know you" let them. They obviously liked you and what you do if they checked out your profile and leave nice comments on your wall (or whatever they do) ahha and I like to be nice and get to know people :)

It depends. Has that person done anything to deserve another fan? Do they have lots of clubs in common with me? Usually I'll fan some lucky users that fan me first, but sometimes they're unintelligent users. I like to fan the people I can hold a decent conversation with. That way, I can contact them in case anything interesting happens in one of our clubs, and get a good response.

Most everyone so far who's fanned me I've fanned back. but that's because I'm new, so anyone who fans me is usually nice and in one or two spots I'm in. I'm not in the phase where people fan me cuz their mother's sister's cousin's daughter's friend fanned me. When that starts happening, I'll lay down the law xD!

Yes, I do. It just seems like common courtesy. I do always run a quick check to make sure they aren't jerks or flamers first, though, and I do like it if we have more than one club in common.

Even more-so, I like a person who will actually interact with me, geek out about shared interests, what have you. The fan list IS supposed to be a friend list, after all, but most people seem to think of it as something else.

, i didn't add anyone.

Well if I'm going to fan someone, I have to have a reason to like them, because the word "fan" implies that, to me. So I have to have at least five clubs in common with them.

I only fan people back if they give me a good reason too, like if we have a lot in common, or we get along, or they have good opinions. Even then, I rarely fan back.
