1) Bring a good sense of humor. Don’t ever take things personally, and try not to be too sensitive. Otherwise you’ll be miserable. Just let loose, have fun, and be willing to laugh.
2) If someone offends you, don’t blow up. Respond in a polite, mature way, point out what offended you and why you find it offensive. If it’s something serious or happens to be one of the things forbidden in Rule 5, chances are people will back you up and the problem will work out. If it isn’t, reread Rule 1.
3) Twi-hards, this isn’t a place to drool over Edward or gush about how amazing the Twilight books are. It’s fine if you like doing that and we hold nothing against you, but please don’t do it here. Take it to a madami appropriate spot and keep it there.
4) Twi-haters, this isn’t a hater or anti spot. Don’t abuse it. Do not make personal attacks against Stephenie Meyer or her fans, and don’t throw nasty or immature insults at Twilight. This is supposed to be “Critical Analysis of Twilight”, not “Mindless Bashing of Twilight”.
5) Make sure the material you ibigay stays true to the spirit of this spot. Whether it’s a soapbox, image, video, etc...please make sure it doesn’t have excessive language, scathingly cruel humor or any other offensive content in it (like "sparkly Bampira are faggots", "Stephenie Meyer is a [bleep]", "Twitards are mindless scum blah blah blah"...etc). When it comes to videos, no book burning or other forms of Twilight carnage. If you found a really good/funny video that happens to have something like that in it, don’t post it. Instead, just ask around and PM iugnay to the people who want to see it. (If enough people say they want to see it, perhaps we could start a special pagtitip. thread with a warning or something. But for now, let's not go there.)
NEW RULE:
6) If you look at the forum, you’ll see there are two rant threads: one for Twilighters and one for anti-Twilighters. If you want to vent your rage or feel like you’ll explode if you don’t get it out of your system, take it there and keep it there. Please use them wisely, put up a warning for each rant you make so people will know what they’re getting into, and don’t ever stoop down to bad language or personal attacks.
NOTE: These are the only two threads for that kind of stuff. Everywhere else is a “safe zone”. If you go to either of the rant threads, be prepared. DO NOT venture in if you can’t take the heat. The warnings are there for a reason. If the rants make you mad, please don’t respond. Either PM the ranter or vent it out in the appropriate thread (and if you do the latter, don’t call out names or point fingers at anyone). That way we can keep the carnage to a minimum.
And these are all the ones I can think of at the moment. If any of you have any suggestions or ideas on how to improve them, please talk! These rules and guidelines are to ensure that we keep the peace, prevent abuse of the spot and help everyone to enjoy their stay. The last thing we want to do is give Fanpop a reason for taking us down.
Thank you so much for your cooperation! Have fun and play nice, duckies!

There are some core things about the mythical creatures I wish Meyer would have ibingiay an actual explaination for:
Vampires
1. Turning into bats
She could have explained it as bats are attracted to vampires, but she choose not to adress it at all.
2. Sleeping in a coffin
How about that having something to do with them faking their own death or something?
3. Lack of Fangs
An evolution over time to adapt.
4. Sunlight
Related to the fact Bampira are considered to be connected to the devil.
Werewolves
1. Full-Moon
They meet at the full-moon.
2. Their Anger Issues (yes, I know that some of the mga lobo have this)
It could have been explained as a reaction to the moons phases.
3. Pack- Mind
Evolved trait or even a gift from the spirits.

Bella Sawn.... Hmmm.
If my bestfreind has loved me, kissed me, tried to ruin my relationship with my boyfriend, i wouldn't be all cool with him loving my child.... including because she's young and his old.
Bella didn't react properly.
I wanted her to get really mad, i wanted Jacob to be banned from seeing Nessie, not have 10 minutos go by, and his aloud to hold her again.
They say you dont choose love, pag-ibig choose's you.
I believe in that but Reneseme, didn't get a choice? Somehow this imprinting thing assumes the person the wolfs are going to fall inlove with are going to pag-ibig them back?
In twilight saga this is the thing i do not understand or get no matter how much i try...
and I just felt the need to let that out LOL even though i have so much madami i would like to let out.
