Fanpop Article: How I found out about fanpop

posted by adavila

the other araw I made a pick (I think it was a repeat) about how you find out about fanpop so I decided to answer that tanong right here... because Im bored.

Well anyways, one araw I was searching for some episodes of smallville because I was downloading them from limewire and it took way to many puwang in my computer (stupid me). So I found out about this webpage, I thought it was just a webpage that posted bidyo but than I looked to the mid-left of the page and I saw something that sinabi featured pick and than in a box it said

what is your future justice league member? and it annoyed me because I thought it was spam or something like that. So one araw I decided to click on it and this page appear telling me to choose between many choices so I just chose randomly (because I was just in season 1 and didnt knew what that page was talking about) and then this thing told me that I needed to be a tagahanga to be able to choose so I got mad because I thought that I needed to pay or something so I just went back to the videos.

The bidyo of smallville passed and passed until I saw this comment I think it was from malaya, and I thought, maybe I should sumali this fanpop thing and if they try to charge me I´ll just go back to the bidyo so I joined, found out I didnt needed to pay, and went back to the videos.

Finally I finished all the seasons fanpop had back then (yes all of them) and I didn´t knew what to do so I remember about that pick and just went and gave my opinion than I didn´t knew what to do so one thing led to another and I found the chlark spot so I joined it and put many picks in there (I think) but I still didn´t knew what a spot was so the months passed and I found out other spots and than I found the picks spot and there was when I thought, I think Im addicted to this fanpop thing.

so there´s my story (with bad grammar and spelling) about how I found out about fanpop

SO WHY DONT YOU WRITE A SOAPBOX TELLING US YOUR FIRST DAYS IN FANPOP!!!

A Fanpop Challenge: Pending Spots

posted by cressida

As most of you know, there is a special holding pen for newly-created spots -- the link arena. Spots remain there until:
a) they have a significant amount of links, bidyo & images
b) there are enough fans to deem it popular ... or at least raise its status out of the 'geek stuck in the trash can' level.

Often I roam around, looking at these new creations, trying to help out those poor spots that have no videos, links, picks, or larawan to their name. But there are still spots there that were born over a taon nakaraan with little to no iugnay to make it interesting enough to join.

So I would like...

"Yes", "No" and ...."All of the Above"?

posted by cressida

I heart pick additions! Truly!

Just out of curiousity, how do people feel when they've created a pick, find pictures, spell- and grammar-proof the question, finally send it out to the world -- and two weeks later discover new choices that r ovrwhielminley mispeled, say "all of the above" or "none of the above", or are green numbers among all of the pretty pictures?

Well, you can read between the lines for my opinion. But I don't know whether this is a personal irritant or whether many madami besides me feel this way.

Of course, there is a time and place for everything. Crazy_chica added a "None of the above" option to my link...

RATE ME!

posted by Temptasia

Why is it on larawan that there are so many madami nakakita than there are people who rated it? It makes me really sad, because I like to see what people think of the content I add. Now, I realize that there are people who view larawan a madami than once, but what I don't understand is when some of my larawan have 87 nakakita and only 2 people (one of which is me) who rated it. In the past I used to be guilty of this, however after adding a lot of content I realized that how good it made me feel when people took the 2 segundos it takes to rate my content. I mean you are already there, and you veiwed it,...

What Do You Think: A Soapbox on the Importance of Commenting

posted by Temptasia

    I try to add a lot of quality content to this site, and I would like to think I succeed. However, there is no way to know for sure without your help. A tanong that constantly plagues my mind is, "What do you think?"
    There are a couple of different ways to let people know what you think about their content. One is rating, which is definitely the most concise way to ipakita your feelings. However, sometimes just rating isn't enough to get your point across especially if the rating is unusually low.
    In the past week or two I...

New Spot

posted by Dundiechampion

What do you want to add? You're free to add anything you desire.

I made a new spot about anything. The kasabihan is "This spot is about anything that's important to you". It just came to me when I was hanging out with my friend James (WWEchamp) and I realized, I thought it would be cool if I could put anything I wanted on one spot. I thought it would be cool to just do anything I wanted to add. NO LIMITS! so I made a spot called the anything spot. So you if you want to you can now add no specific content. Movies, Sports, Politics,
TV shows, cooking, add anything you want. If you think i'm sounding like an a-hole right now that's your opinion, but I think I really have a good thing going here. So please take a look at the anything spot if your even romotely intrested at all.

so just type "anything" the fanpop paghahanap engine and your there. (obviously I know)

It's Already Been A Year!

posted by JulieL44

I wasn't sure where to post this artikulo so I decided to put it on this spot.

One taon ago, the lives of many people around the world (especially of the people in Quebec) were turned upside down because of the death of Anastasia De Sousa. She was an innocent victim of the shooting that occurred at Dawson College in Montreal, Quebec exactly one taon nakaraan on September 13th, 2006. I just wanted to give her one moment of silence on this very sad anniversary and I was hoping you would all sumali me in this. I was completely devastated when I first heard the tragic news about this shooting last year...

Petty Ratings

posted by megloveskyle

I have noticed recently that ratings on very great material are extremly low. I can understand bidyo that are of poor quality but iugnay 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...

Rising Stars

posted by Dundiechampion

I'm just here to tell you about a new spot I made. It's called the rising stars spot. For musicians and groups who have a good sound to their music. a good example would be one republic. So if you know some kind of artist that you think should be heard post something about them on this spot.I personally like a band called The Hush Sound. They are an indie rock band who songs are joy to my ears. I put some of their songs on the spot check them out. And remember there will always be a new hit artist.

Homophobia - Stop the Hate

Learn to love and not hate

This was originally going to be an artikulo on all sorts of hatred, discrimination and prejudice. But then I had something horrible happen to me online this morning, and I decided that I was going to focus on one, simple, hate.

Homophobia.

In my experience, it's absolutely horrible. So in this article, I'm going to discuss why you should put a stop to it, and just go through a couple of small anecdotes, expressing to you how hateful, horrible and mean it can be.

Ratings!!

posted by ClaireB58

This topic may already exist as a soapbox but I have to say that things on certain spots seem to being rated one bituin CONSTANTLY. People have complained in forums on madami than one occasion, no tagahanga would rate something one bituin if they liked the subject the spot was dedicated to, has anyone else noticed this on any spots?

It happens on the One puno burol 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 bituin and somehow I feel convincedthat it is NOT a coincidence!!!

Can you please comment!
