...Well, almost
Recently on Fanpop, there have been a few little bugs or glitches. These are to be totally expected whilst a product is still in it's beta stage, as Fanpop is. Whilst all of the bugs in new features are attempted to be taken out before public release, occasionally one or two slip through.
You have to remember that being being on a beta website, we are all beta testers and should report any bugs so they're not in the final product.
If this happens and you spot a bug or glitch, there are certain ways of dealing with it.
Contact Us!
At the bottom of every page on Fanpop, there's a small link that says link. You can use this form to report a number of things to Fanpop. This way your report gets into a queue that all of the staff can see, saving you the trouble of sending four separate messages and/or increasing the likelihood that the bug gets addressed. Credit to harold for this.
Message a member of the Fanpop Four
This is usually the best way of dealing with a bug.
Try to include details of exactly what it was you were doing when the bug occured, and if you think it is required, your operating system and internet browser. Be polite in your message and make sure you do include everything you mean to say.
If you are having a problem with miscategorised content etc. the best thing to do is to report it using the flag button, rather than message a member of Fanpop. For more on that, see link.
The links to send messages to the Fanpop Four are below.

Message an experienced user of Fanpop
Certain users have been using the site long enough to know what bugs may occur and may also know how to get around them until they're fixed, if they are a long term bug that is currently being resolved. You can also message these people to ask whether they are experiencing the same problems as you and then you can determine whether the problem may be related to your computer alone, and then start to fix it.
The links to send messages to well-known Fanpoppers are below. (If you wish to be added on/taken off, please say so.)

Post a forum topic in the Fanpop spot
The link serves as a good discussion point for any problems with Fanpop.
Post details of the glitch or bug there and it will serve as a focused talking point for others with the same problem, and people may bring solutions as well.
Things not to do
Do not post an image of the bug/glitch.
It may help you get some ratings, but in the end the Fanpop Four aren't able to check every image posted. It's much quicker to message them. If you feel like posting an image, post a forum topic instead. It serves the same purpose and it doesn't look like you posted the image simply to garner a few ratings and extra medal "points".
That's all I can think of for now, but if anyone else has useful points I can add, I'm all ears.
Of course if a dragon malfunctions at you, feel free to tell the world
Plugging away at our laptops
Ten years ago, Fanpop made its presence on the Internet and people joined the site one way or another. I first found out about Fanpop when I did a Google Image Search on "link". That was back in May 2010, in which I signed up for the site as CHILDISHY; now I use my ReptarZolo account to match with my current DeviantArt account. All those years, Fanpop became cluttered with various types of violative content, including and especially pornography. With only four admins, I don't believe Fanpop will last any longer; this can be prevented if the admins promote some users, preferably those they trust, to become moderators and help clean up the site.
Ok so I'm sooo sorry If I waited to long to do the story I SWEAR! that i'm going to do it tomorrow i'm so sorry. I have to many problems and i'm very emotional the last couple of days and it's a big problem with my family and i'm very sad but i really will start the story I swear! I cant really tell u about my family issues but I need someone to talk to. But on the other hand if you can be my co-writer i would LOVE that but you have to be good like not basic, you know how when people push the story too fast...

[note: when I first made this article "clubs" were called "spots" so just imagine anything that says "spot" actually says "club" ;)]
Well it seems like people are always asking how so here is a step by step guide on how to with images, yay! (there is a little thing in the FAQ but people seem to relate to images better)
Step 1: Make sure you are on the Fanpop main page
Step 2: Search for the spot first so there are no duplicates (if not then go back to the main page)
Step 3: Scroll down till you see this image and click "create new spot"
Step 4: Type in the name of the spot...

ATTENTION: This is just a user opinion's on what could be cool for Fanpop.
1. Customize Profile: Everyone likes to have a nice profile homepage, so my first idea is we have a chance of customize our own profile, with backgrounds, colors, fonts etc...
2. Medal Meter: I think every Fanpopers like to know how much are they far to get a medal on the spot, so my 2nd idea is FP give us the chance to see if we are far or close to get our medal.
3. Profile Viewers: How many and what users did check our profile.
4. Comment Reply Notice: Be notice in you updates when someone reply you in a comment.
5. Possibility to Change User name: Sometimes people don't like their user names...a opportunity to change would be nice ;)
Hope You Enjoy It

No more nudity and disgusting images!!
This is merely an addition to Papa's fantastic soapbox article on link (a must-read) but some users have still been asking about editing a pick that they've made after they have published it. Here's a very basic how-to.
1. How the Pick's Creator can edit the pick:
If you want to add additonal choices to your options or images to them, all you need to do is look for and click on the pencil icon on the top of your pick. This will take you back to the pick creation page where you can freely add new options and image to your heart's desire.
2. How Voters can edit the pick:
If the creator allowed...
