99% of you are amazing fans! This is a guide on dealing with the 1%.
To summarize:
1. ulat ATTACKERS IMMEDIATELY. You are doing the entire community a favor as they are probably attacking other members.
YOU MUST PROVIDE AS MUCH EVIDENCE AS POSSIBLE IN THE ulat FIELD, including iugnay to the attacks.
Attacks are personal insults, threats, bigotry, etc. A person saying they don't like a contribution is NOT an attack. Having a pagtatalo is also not an attack until insults/threats etc. are mixed in.
2. IGNORE THEM. DO NOT RESPOND BACK. If you attack back, you are probably giving the attacker/troll what they want. We won't dig through 20 pages of reports to find out who started it. In some cases, both people will be banned.
3. Reporting is not a weapon. People who fraudulently ulat enemies, do not provide details, and/or repeatedly ulat people without providing evidence may also be removed from Fanpop. Some weirdos ulat their own fake users. Seriously, you are asking for it, and you aren't fooling anyone.
4. CHEATERS WILL BE BANNED: DON'T SWITCH TO YOUR FAKE ACCOUNTS EVER AGAIN
Don't switch accounts to jack up your fans, props, poll votes, or whatever. It's not fair to the honest fans. If you have mga kaibigan who do this, please send them this article.
ALL of your accounts will be banned for life if a moderator chooses, even if you have amazing medals. I'm sure you can think of some famous banned fans, so we are serious. Consider this the final warning.
If you created multiple accounts for any reason, pick one, and do not ever log into the other accounts again. You don't need to alisin the old accounts, but do not use them. Excuses like "it's my brother/sister/dog's account" won't cut it.
Everyone is forgiven at this point. If you've cheated in the past, just don't do it again.
If you get caught cheating after this artikulo is published, you are toast, and you may lose your "main" account forever.
This is an artikulo describing how and why bans happen. It's an updated artikulo based on one we posted in a troublesome club.
We've recently lifetime-banned several of the most troublesome users and deleted all of their content. In other words, there is no coming back for them. All their contributions are gone.
"But Fanpop, how can I avoid getting banned? I'm just a nice, honest, non-cheating fan!"
If someone picks a fight with you, DO NOT RESPOND, and immediately ulat it, and make sure you link to or quote the offending content. We absolutely need all the details. If you simply ulat the user without providing evidence, no action will be taken against them.
Also, we're talking about personal attacks, not normal human interactions.
Example:
A tagahanga writes: "You suck and yo mamma sucks" ->You ulat them->Troll banned for life->You helped Fanpop terminate a troll and made Fanpop a better place!
Bad example:
Another tagahanga writes: "This was some interesting fanfic, but the first section is taken word-for-word from my work last week. Here's the link. Do you mind changing it or attributing it to me?"->They are NOT a Troll, NOT banned, you should change your fanfic immediately, and you just wasted everyone's time. That being said, if the tagahanga started the post with a slur or insult, they would have a problem.
There's a saying that "you can get away with almost anything if you do it nicely." While we're not necessarily encouraging people to try to get away with stuff, the "nicely" part is the key takeaway.
ibingiay the volume of content and literally millions of fans, we cannot go and dig through a thousand comments to find out "who started it."
Think of it this way: if teachers and parents right now don't have time to figure out "who started it", imagine if one's parents had millions of children. Are they going to have time to sift through everything?
If you do respond to sinabi troll and there is a ton of back and forth, with both sides cussing each other out, both of you will be banned from ever joining Fanpop again. There is a good chance moderators will alisin 100% of your content and strip your medalya and caps, as well.
If your buddy was banned, please do not bother to contact us. There was a very good reason, and saying "he was really nice to me" really means nothing. Even criminals are nice to some people. Giving a moderator attitude will be bad for everyone, and you won't be helping your friend's case.
The good news is that 99% of the users here are great people and not causing problems. Be cool and courteous with one another, report trolls immediately, WITH LINKED EVIDENCE, and every time WITHOUT responding to them, and, together, we'll purge them from Fanpop once and for all.

I am not here to lecture you yet again on litrato crediting. I am done with that.
I am way past the lecturing and into downright grrrrrr-ville.
You already know full well that taking something you did not create and not giving full credit to the owner is theft. Your excuses mostly boil down to laziness at this point.
So.
This is my public notice that any and all larawan with no credit to the original owner of the image will be rated harshly no matter how great the picture is... or how much I normally like you.
Additionally, if there is a blatant Copyright notice right there on the damn picture and you still failed to credit the owner, I'm reporting it to Fanpop -and- notifying the owner of the image that you estola it.
Enough is enough.

A few minutos nakaraan I thought of a partial answer to the kamakailan outbreak of internet trolls we've had over the last few moths.
Ladies and Gentlepoppers, I introduce to you:
The ATSOF (The Anti Troll Squad Of Fanpop)
This will be a society of fanpoppers who work together to justly rate any content which has (without reason) been rated low.
My plan is to make an ATSOF Spot; if a spot or particular piece of content has been rated low you can alert the ATSOF spot about this and some of the "fans" of the spot will head over to the content and rate the content fairly, therefore boosting the rating.
Please tell me what you think; I don't want to create a Ghost-Spot-to-be

If we make a new spot we want to make it popular. Recently I made a new spot so when I wanted to send a message to all my mga kaibigan about it I got tired of typing individual messages so I quit. So we should be able to send one message to all our mga kaibigan at the same time if necessary. Also there should be an area that says "new spots" on the tahanan page so that people can see what has been recently created and if they want to sumali the particular spot. It would really make the people who created the spots happy because they could get some good publicity.
sa pamamagitan ng the way I made a new spot about Kal Penn, the indian guy from the van wilder movies, Harold and Kumar go to white castle, and Epic Movie.
So if u like those pelikula check it out. all you have to do is type "Kal Penn" in the paghahanap engine" (obviously, I know)
Also this soapbox was ment for the fanpop spot

Hello to everyone,
my name is Inès, and I'm French.
As a lot of you know, Paris has been attacked yesterday sa pamamagitan ng terrorists. The konsiyerto hall "Le Bataclan" has been attacked during a concert.
128 dead and madami than 200 wounded are for now counted. This is a tragedy.
I was born and I've lived in Paris, and I often go there and to the Bataclan to attend concerts, and seeing this, is just awful. The whole country is shocked and desperate.
3 national days of mourning have been declared.
I invite you to leave a few words, thoughts for the victims of this disaster.
Thank you <3
