Fanpop Etiquette Article: Proper Etiquette For Fan Pick Fragen

posted by vider69

I have created quiet a few spots now and I Liebe contributions of any kind, but I am surprised at how many people will pick on 'any' Fan pick Frage just for the sake of it even if they don't like the subject at hand.
Perfect examples of this behavior is what I have noticed not only on spots that I've created but many other spots as well, someone may put up a Frage such as: 'Do Du Like The Movie Enchanted?' and someone will answer 'Never Seen It' oder another question, say - 'Which Bambi Foto Is Your Favorite?' only for someone to come up with 'I Hate Bambi.'
It's not whether Du are a Fan of a spot that is the issue, it's people who answer every Fan pick Frage whether they feel that the topic is relevant oder not and 'I feel' that if Du don't like a particular question, oder Du know nothing about the topic then don't answer oder ad onto it with something pointless.
People put a lot of time and effort into Fan pick Fragen and I'm sure many of Du are tired of irrelevant answers, I know that we can Löschen these Antwort and as much as I truly appreciate any contributions I do intend to Löschen Antwort to Fan pick Fragen which are either meaningless oder even nasty.
I hope that I haven't 'ruffled any feathers' I just felt that this was a topic worth raising 'I know that it's been bought up in Fan pick questions' and do continue to have fun on Fanpop. Cheers.

x-missmckena-x yer i agree, i also find that some people dont put their answer in they follow with a comment like say to a shipping "oh i hate this she should be with so and so instead" when its a certain spot dedicated to that couple!

Managing Previously Uploaded Videos

posted by mycrownofjewels

So this may seem a little "anal" of me, but I run into a lot of Videos gepostet on spots that are broken, and for that, I Berichten them. Still, I wonder why it's so difficult for the original poster to go back through some of the things they previously gepostet every once in a while (every 3 months?) to check which Videos may now have a copyright claim, etc. I certainly don't mind cleaning up spots Von reporting broken content, but it is very time consuming...

As a tip, and to make this job easier for people who contribute a lot, broken Videos often have a gray video camera as the image instead of...

Picks are NOT made for advertising!

posted by ToastedRabbits

Just a little heads up.

It has been going on for awhile, but I've noticed it especially most recently. The bottom line of this entire Artikel lays in its title: pick's aren't made for advertising.

Repetitively, picks are being created that ask "I've just made a spot for ___, will Du Mitmachen it?", oder something along those lines. Picks like these aren't really opinions and hold little gumption in terms of an interesting Umfrage oder contrasting Ansichten on a subject. Picks like these are being made to solicit new spots, which isn't what picks are for.

There is a fabulous link, a link, and a link dedicated...

Unsubscribing From Spots

posted by vider69

I decided to write this Artikel because I have seen Fragen being asked about unsubscribing from spots and I have dropped a few spots myself.
The only two reasons I will drop a spot is if the spot has little oder no content oder the topic isn't exactly a Favorit of mine, even if I thought it would be.
I do admit that I feel like a real mean hündin when I decide to leave a spot and I'm not here to redeem myself oder make excuses, but to help other Fans who are in a similar situation as I am and also hopefully for some feedback, Kommentare and ideas.
Some of us Mitmachen spots because the person that created...

WARNING: I Will One-Star Chain Letters gepostet as Artikel

posted by Cinders

I hate chain letters in my e-mail box. I do not want to see them in my Fanpop updates.

I remember a Jahr oder Mehr ago, link got the mickey taken out of him Von DrDevience and others for posting unoriginal chain letters and Rush Limbaugh transcripts as soapboxes. He acted accordingly and removed those articles, and though I think we came down a little unfairly on him, I agreed that chain letters should not be gepostet as soapboxes, because they are not original work, which was the point of soapboxes in the first place.

You'll notice that, when Du post a new article, there is a drop-box asking what...

The Unofficial Etiquette Guide to the Fanpop Antwort Feature

posted by Cinders

Hello, seekers of good Antwort to burning questions! It has come to my attention that an official guide to using the new Antwort feature is necessary in order to prevent abuse of this fabulous new fun feature.

I stumbled across fanfly's Frage about the link for this feature and answered the Frage with a Liste of five things I think are the most important to keep in mind. Urged Von germany123 to make it into a soapbox, I present to Du the Official Rules of the Fanpop Antwort Feature.

1) If Du know the answer to the question, don't ask. This should be fairly clear already, but Antwort are...

Enough Is Enough

posted by vider69

I am so sick of all the nastiness and sarcasm that goes on in Fanpop, through the forums, via Fan pick Fragen and Kommentare left regarding Bilder etc.
And I'm sick of being so nice about it when there's only so much one person can take, I've almost left Fanpop on a few occasions because of 'some' peoples attitudes here and I'm over it.
I have been on Fanpop for almost a Jahr now and I'm not nasty to people, I get on here and do my thing and contribute as much as I can, but if I cop anymore shit oder see people being nasty to other people here I will Berichten them and I'll name all of the 'nasties'...

Your Spot oder Not Your Spot?

posted by vider69

I think that this Artikel belongs here in opposed to 'Fanpop Spots' because it is a Fanpop Etiquette issue, as well as a spot oder club issue.
When Du Mitmachen a spot it appears in your Updates as one of your spots and so do the ones Du create, I've heard some people say that a spot that Du created 'isn't your spot' now I know that the spots belong to Fanpop and I realize that 'most' of Du would be very proud of your creations just as I am of mine.
However if Du are the spot creator then 'in my opinion' the spot is yours to some degree, Du create the spot, only Du can change the banner, icon...
