germany123 yes that awful "weaslyismyking" kept sending me spammy messages aboot oral hygiene ;o okay no, this is just to show you what happens when you block someone:their future messages will automatically be redirected to your trash! If a user is being abusive or a spammer you must [url=http://www.fanpop.com/spots/fanpop/articles/37454/title/leaving-fanpop-one-users-thoughts-on-reporting-tool]REPORT[/url] them so the F4 can deal with their accounts.Remember to use the notes section explaining what the user is doing!

how to and how not to advertise your spot

posted by amazondebs

okay straight down to buisness, frankly I dislike picks saying "will you join this spot" or messages from people advertising sites and spots. If people have a real interest in the spot they will find it themselves, same goes for websites but i understand that there's no point to a spot if your the only member and you have no one to talk about your passion with and since we're all one big fanpop family the more of us the merrier a spot generally is, so rather than whining about it i have decided to offer up some solutions. Although the annoying person with in me still feels the need to put in...

HELP ME : A rant about undescriptive questions and ineligible text speak

posted by Frizzhead

There is many different rants on Fanpop etiquette but one i havent seen is an article on the questions titled
HELP ME!!!1 These questions just put me in a terrible mood as do the questions where you cant understand what they are saying

Me in a terrible mood

These questions grate on my already fragile nerves so i think it is best if i explain why and maybe others have similar reasons

What Do You Think: A Soapbox on the Importance of Commenting

posted by Temptasia

    I try to add a lot of quality content to this site, and I would like to think I succeed. However, there is no way to know for sure without your help. A question that constantly plagues my mind is, "What do you think?"
    There are a couple of different ways to let people know what you think about their content. One is rating, which is definitely the most concise way to show your feelings. However, sometimes just rating isn't enough to get your point across especially if the rating is unusually low.
    In the past week or two I...

New Spot

posted by Dundiechampion

What do you want to add? You're free to add anything you desire.

I made a new spot about anything. The Motto is "This spot is about anything that's important to you". It just came to me when I was hanging out with my friend James (WWEchamp) and I realized, I thought it would be cool if I could put anything I wanted on one spot. I thought it would be cool to just do anything I wanted to add. NO LIMITS! so I made a spot called the anything spot. So you if you want to you can now add no specific content. Movies, Sports, Politics,
TV shows, cooking, add anything you want. If you think i'm sounding like an a-hole right now that's your opinion, but I think I really have a good thing going here. So please take a look at the anything spot if your even romotely intrested at all.

so just type "anything" the fanpop search engine and your there. (obviously I know)

It's Already Been A Year!

posted by JulieL44

I wasn't sure where to post this article so I decided to put it on this spot.

One year ago, the lives of many people around the world (especially of the people in Quebec) were turned upside down because of the death of Anastasia De Sousa. She was an innocent victim of the shooting that occurred at Dawson College in Montreal, Quebec exactly one year ago on September 13th, 2006. I just wanted to give her one moment of silence on this very sad anniversary and I was hoping you would all join me in this. I was completely devastated when I first heard the tragic news about this shooting last year...

Would you show your momma this?

posted by Snerkie

Holy Batman I have not been on in forever (slightly longer hiatus than I planned D:) But I am now back and frightened more than ever.

When I was last here things were quite good, there was a lot of fandom going on over the kiddies, good for them :) don't start stuff. I come back and what do I get in my face BOOBS! ASS! SEX! What? Last I thought this was a site accessed by children and adults. When I think of Fanpop I don't think of it as a smutty site for people to enjoy in a different inapropriate way.

Adult magazines are restricted only to over 18 people, this website is accessed by people...

Petty Ratings

posted by megloveskyle

I have noticed recently that ratings on very great material are extremly low. I can understand videos that are of poor quality but links like IMDb or fansites are being rated as low. These are what I have been calling "petty rates". If you have a problem with someone on Fanpop don't take it out on their ratings. Add your own content that you think is better.

When you write a soapbox or find a great image, it can be really disappointing to get a low rating. Personally, it makes me not want to add content. Why spend so much time adding great content when people are going to rate is so low and...

Rising Stars

posted by Dundiechampion

I'm just here to tell you about a new spot I made. It's called the rising stars spot. For musicians and groups who have a good sound to their music. a good example would be one republic. So if you know some kind of artist that you think should be heard post something about them on this spot.I personally like a band called The Hush Sound. They are an indie rock band who songs are joy to my ears. I put some of their songs on the spot check them out. And remember there will always be a new hit artist.

Personalization Ideas

posted by want2watcheroes

I Was Thinking About Ways Fanpop Could Be Better (Not That It Isn't Good How It Is) And I Thought That More Personalized Would Be Great. I'll Explain What I Mean.

Profile Info

I Thought It Would Be Good If You Had An Option To Write More About Yourself On Your Profile Page.

Profile Design

It Would Also Be Good If You Could Give Your Profile Different Skins Or Themes Or Something Around Them Lines, But Made By Fanpop So That Bad Un-Neat Pixelated Skins Don't Get Put Up.

Applications

Having Applications Would Be Great, They Should Be On The Page The App Is Linked With e.g For The Fanpop Spot, There...

Stop hating

posted by ilovehinder

Kathiria82

First of all, I would like to ask why people keep giving Kathiria82 a hard time? None of you have any reason to keep hating on her. she is a nice person and cares about everyone. I think she deserves to be treated just as nicely as everyone else does, especially when she has made the all around most contributions on Fanpop. people keep going to her spot to say how its not fair that she has a spot. It is fair. There are spots for people on Fanpop that no one has ever even heard of and if they can keep theirs, Kathiria82 sure as h*ll can. She has posted nearly 3,000 links, over 5,200 videos,...

Homophobia - Stop the Hate

posted by dramallama56

Learn to love and not hate

This was originally going to be an article on all sorts of hatred, discrimination and prejudice. But then I had something horrible happen to me online this morning, and I decided that I was going to focus on one, simple, hate.

Homophobia.

In my experience, it's absolutely horrible. So in this article, I'm going to discuss why you should put a stop to it, and just go through a couple of small anecdotes, expressing to you how hateful, horrible and mean it can be.

The Official Fanpop Dictionary

posted by Cinders

The OFD (Official Fanpop Dictionary) was first published in 2009. The OFD is a compilation of words the etymology of which can be found in the roots of Fanpop history. There is no one author of the OFD, as it is made possible by the generous donations of several committed Fanpoppers (see dictionary below). Common usage of words in the fanpop vernacular is also added to the dictionary. If you wish to make a contribution to the OFD, by all means add your word to the list in the form of a comment.
