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 leave you rude comments? I noticed a lot of the younger generation on here saying nasty things first. I've ignorned them and removed them from my fanlist b/c I feel they are young and sometimes don't know better. It's still not an excuse. But latley, I've noticed people my age and older saying negative things and rating extremly low. An example is someone came into an actress spot I recently made and rated her IMDb as garbage. They did leave an excuse however being they have never heard of her. After they rated everything low they moved on not joining the spot. Now that is ridiculous, immature and petty. If you don't know the actress or spot don't go in there and rate everthing low and leave nasty comments. Move along there are other spots out there. Or here's an idea!! DING DING! LIGHTBULB SHOULD GO OFF BY NOW! Make A SPOT! Yes, that's right make a spot about something you like and are interested in.
Ok, now that I am done ranting and raving about links I hope I haven't offended anyone. It's really important to rate. There are a lot of nice people out there who always rate and leave nice comments. I want to Thank You. They know who they are and they know their awesome!
*****Ratings are important people! Rate on how great the content is not the contributor. ********
Thanks,

Hello, today you will be reading a way to help yourself avoid the haters! If you have a hater or haters, this might be the simple article for you!
Example, someone said:
"seriously? High School Musical 3?? This movie is for douche bags"
Don't feel offended! The BEST way to ignore that or make the person go away is doing what I said:
"No it's not. And thank you for the fine compliment."
They might leave you alone then! If they don't, the best thing to do is block them (even though blocking does not stop them from posting all over your contributes)!
And if it really annoys you, report them. It's that simple!
But, if they come back, don't leave Fanpop. Don't report them again! Wait until they do something wrong, inappropriate, or offensive.
WARNING: Never abuse the report button because you might be harmed if it is done!
That's all for now! :)

P.S.- This will not stop everyone from bothering you!

I ask this because one of my favorite clubs is the "Animated Shorts" club. I visit it nearly everyday and post lots of videos and stuff on it. The club has only 29 fans.
I did receive a green medal for "The Simpsons" club, because I visit that place a lot as well and I answer all the questions. That club has 34623 fans.
What I'm saying is, How exactly does the medal system work? I love the Animated Shorts club as much as the Simpsons club, if not more. Is it something I've done or haven't done or is it to do with the club?
I'm not being mean, I'm just asking.
