Question 7..Where can I find the FAQs?
I usually Berichten these kind of picks/answers and they get deleted as they are effectively spam. The drawback is: all information users leave in the Kommentare is lost.
link seems to only be used Von a limited number of Fans and though I use it frequently I hate how all information is Lost in the multiple pages after a while.
I found the officiallinkdon't cover all the basics as I usually like to refer people there.
Also this is in no way meant to rival the very well writtenlink which is much Mehr detailed.

ArianaIsMine HEY I NEED HELP!!!!!!!! How do I post Gifs to my profile?
Flickerflame ^It can't be done. You can't have a gif as an icon. It was only possible for a short while, years ago, as part of a glitch. They probably take up too much space.
mattk22 Idk if this problem has been discussed but
Ihave made some quiz questions on the television group and i want my friends to anwser them
Is it possible to add them to my own group as well?
If any1 can help id be very grateful
Thanks again
Flickerflame ^I think it ought to be possible to add the same quiz question to more than 1 club. You just make a quiz question again, in your own club.
xXxAngelessxXx has something changed? because i can't block because that option isn't visible under that person's message and i want to block them ^^;; is there another way this can be done?
LowriLorenza89 ^I just checked and it was possible for me. Go to your inbox and open a message from whoever you want to block. Click on Block User (the third green button beneath the message). A warning comes up asking if you're sure you want to move their future messages to trash, so select Yes there.
Williw How Do I View All The Pictures I Like On Fanpop.?
Where do I ask my question?
This topic may already exist as a soapbox but I have to say that things on certain spots seem to being rated one star, sterne CONSTANTLY. People have complained in Foren on Mehr than one occasion, no Fan would rate something one star, sterne if they liked the subject the spot was dedicated to, has anyone else noticed this on any spots?
It happens on the One baum hügel spot, and others related to it, I'm sure that someone else is really annoyed about this!! It is really childish! Sometimes it is pages of content all rated one star, sterne and somehow I feel convincedthat it is NOT a coincidence!!!
Can Du please comment!
