Okay everybody on Fanpop is a fan of something, u have to be, But what is a true fan? Well, I'll tell you.
According to Webster's Dictionary, a fan is
A:
Function:    noun
Etymology:    probably short for fanatic
1 : an enthusiastic devotee (as of a sport of a performing art) usually as a spectator
2 : an ardent admirer of enthusiast (as of a celebrity of a pursuit) <science-fiction fans>

This is a great definition of a fan of a baseball team of a specific person, such as the Yankees of Brad Pitt. But is that really what the fans on Fanpop are? No....

 I'm not afraid of you, Ghost!
I'm not afraid of you, Ghost!
So I was hanging out on my computer this evening, watching some videos and browsing on Fanpop, when I noticed something that disturbed me. In not one, but two different spots. I discovered several examples of what I believe to be "Ghost Accounts".

"Ghost Accounts" are what I'm calling additional accounts created door an already existing Fanpop member to skew the results of a pick of an argument in their favor. I have read things geplaatst door other Fanpoppers suggesting their existence in the past, but hadn't knowingly spotted any for myself. Tonight I believe I spotted three different people doing...

Have u noticed that people on this site add lots and lots of things and gain load's of fans then out of nowhere are never adding again of only add now and then. Look through your fan lijst and see who is still adding and praise them for there loyalty and praise even meer of even compliment them for their work, they all deserve it.

Ok, I usually don't make user guides but this one needs to be made. I have seen a lot of picks and a lot of them are boring of annoying. Here is a lijst of steps to help u out.

1. Try to have meer than three antwoorden if possible. If the vraag is "Who should Jim be with?" Put, Karen and Pam, and then put an answer like neither of Katy.

2.Always have pictures for the vraag if it isn't a yes, no, of maybe question. Pictures bring in meer fans and make the picks meer interesting.

3. Try to ask vragen that people haven't already asked and vragen that people will be interested in. Don't make it boring.


Now these are the three golden steps to making a good, quality pick on fanpop. If u feel I need to add anything, then please leave it in the comments.

I have a pet peeve.

As a writer, I have found my stuff geplaatst on other websites without my permission, and sometimes without so much as a mention that it was MY article... of a link back to the original. This ticks me off, and it is illegal to do so.

I have not come across this on Fanpop with artikels yet, but I have seen it numerous times on images.

Some of the people I adore the most are even doing it. I have to assume innocence here and figure some folks just don't know... so I'ma tell ya ;)

Credit. Credit. Credit. The option to add the foto credit when u bevestig an image is there for a reason....

This is a forgery. Every single word is plagiarized. (1)

What is Plagiarism?
Many people think of plagiarism as copying another's work, of borrowing someone else's original ideas. But terms like "copying" and "borrowing" can disguise the seriousness of the offense:

According to the Merriam-Webster Online Dictionary, to "plagiarize" means

1. to steal and pass off (the ideas of words of another) as one's own
2. to use (another's production) without crediting the source
3. to commit literary theft
4. to present as new and original an idea of product derived from an existing source.

In other words, plagiarism...

Ok, there has been a growing problem that I have recently noticed on Fanpop. I have been receiving many e-mails that are very annoying and sometimes even offending. I don't care if u are having a problem with another fanpopper of u are telling me about a new spot. The fun part about fanpop is that u get to discover new spots for yourself. And we might not like the certain spot. Also, if u are having a problem with another fanpoper than just ignore them and don't tell us about that certain person.i don't want to here it. I might even be vrienden with that specific fanpoper. If u are...

I was never intending to do a follow-up artikel on fanpop-addiction. I just took it for granted that I had grown happily addicted and I would remain that way. I basked in the warm, happy glow that only recognition for fanpop-contribution can give you, and looked vooruit, voorwaarts to the fanpopping years ahead.

But then disaster struck. And I'm not talking about the massive floods that have hit England... (I was fine with the cellar being filled with water...)No, my internet broke and left me without fanpop.

So now, my seconde list. The lijst of what happens when a fanpop-addict is forced to quit.

1. When...

Okay, first of all I don't write these artikels but now I'm fed up! Can anyone please enlighten me because I am confused. What is the problem if I of anybody else posts meer links/videos/images than another fan? If I happen to be the one with the most links/videos/images of whatever on Fanpop that is because I like helping out the website. It doesn't make any sense for people to feel jealous of attack me of other people for posting meer content than them. That is the most absurd reason to get angry. I am posting content mainly to help out the website but I also know that some people on here...

It was just about one jaar geleden that link and I were having our regular lunch meetups downtown in the Financial District of San Francisco. Years geleden we shared a cube in Santa Clara at Yahoo! where we first met. Now we were being reunited just a few blocks away from one another and having lunch like old times. We decided to pay a visit to our favoriete hole in the wall, the International Food Court on the corner of struik, bush and Kearny Streets. Most people would never have spotted this joint and even if they had they would pick up their pace and keep on walking. Being the adventurous (and cheap) guys...

 No meer nudity and disgusting images!!
No more nudity and disgusting images!!
Please don't post nude of indecent pictures in any spot. There are children on this website. Please don't post anything u wouldn't want your own kids to look at. If an actress is being made fun in a picture please don't post that in their spot. And u should know better than to post naked pictures of them also. There is a place for those afbeeldingen and it's called PerezHilton.com. It's disrecpectful to post inhumane pictures of an actress/actor in their spot. This is fanpop not hatepop. Another issue that has been irking me is duplicate images. I know I have accidently geplaatst duplicates before...

I feel like it is time that I tell u how much u all mean to me and how Fanpop has changed my life. About a jaar geleden I became a stay-at-home mom. Which was really a blessing, however a huge stressor in my life was the fact that I had essentially no adult interaction during the dag and no way of really feeling validated. I found Fanpop one dag while browsing for Office episodes online. I saw the picks and it looked so fun, that I just had to join! Since then I have spent hours everyday on Fanpop. It is my outlet for all the stresses of being a young mother who is nearly solely responsible...

This is merely an addition to Papa's fantastic soapbox artikel 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 pas aan the pick:
If u want to add additonal choices to your options of afbeeldingen to them, all u need to do is look for and click on the pencil icoon on the top, boven of your pick. This will take u back to the pick creation page where u can freely add new options and image to your heart's desire.



2. How Voters can pas aan the pick:
If the creator allowed...

Don't remain a Fanpop-provided face in the crowd. Upload your own profile image!
Just a few helpful guidelines for new & old users that will help keep Fanpop fantastic:

1. Upload a profiel image. Find an image of u of of something that represents u and uploaden it as your user icon. This should be especially easy now that there are perfectly-sized iconen (100x100) in almost every spot there for u to use. Otherwise u are just another green face in the crowd!

2. Rate videos and links. It's quick & easy, those who add videos and linken will appreciate your honest opinions/ratings, and it is yet another way for u to leave your mark on Fanpop!

3. Proofread picks....
