99% of آپ are amazing fans! This is a guide on dealing with the 1%.
To summarize:
1. رپورٹ ATTACKERS IMMEDIATELY. آپ are doing the entire community a favor as they are probably attacking other members.
آپ MUST PROVIDE AS MUCH EVIDENCE AS POSSIBLE IN THE رپورٹ FIELD, including لنکس 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 debate is also not an attack until insults/threats etc. are mixed in.
2. IGNORE THEM. DO NOT RESPOND BACK. If آپ attack back, آپ 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 رپورٹ enemies, do not provide details, and/or repeatedly رپورٹ people without providing evidence may also be removed from Fanpop. Some weirdos رپورٹ their own fake users. Seriously, آپ are asking for it, and آپ 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, سروے votes, یا whatever. It's not fair to the honest fans. If آپ have دوستوں who do this, please send them this article.
ALL of your accounts will be banned for life if a moderator chooses, even if آپ have amazing medals. I'm sure آپ can think of some famous banned fans, so we are serious. Consider this the final warning.
If آپ created multiple accounts for any reason, pick one, and do not ever log into the other accounts again. آپ don't need to خارج 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 آپ get caught cheating after this مضمون is published, آپ are toast, and آپ may lose your "main" account forever.
This is an مضمون describing how and why bans happen. It's an updated مضمون based on one we گیا کیا پوسٹ 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 رپورٹ it, and make sure آپ link to یا quote the offending content. We absolutely need all the details. If آپ simply رپورٹ 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 پرستار writes: "You suck and yo mamma sucks" ->You رپورٹ them->Troll banned for life->You helped Fanpop terminate a troll and made Fanpop a better place!
Bad example:
Another پرستار 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 آپ mind changing it یا attributing it to me?"->They are NOT a Troll, NOT banned, آپ should change your fanfic immediately, and آپ just wasted everyone's time. That being said, if the پرستار started the post with a slur یا insult, they would have a problem.
There's a saying that "you can get away with almost anything if آپ do it nicely." While we're not necessarily encouraging people to try to get away with stuff, the "nicely" part is the key takeaway.
دیا the volume of content and literally millions of fans, we cannot go and dig through a thousand تبصرے 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 آپ do respond to کہا troll and there is a ton of back and forth, with both sides cussing each other out, both of آپ will be banned from ever joining Fanpop again. There is a good chance moderators will خارج 100% of your content and strip your تمغے 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 آپ 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 آپ yet again on تصویر crediting. I am done with that.
I am way past the lecturing and into downright grrrrrr-ville.
آپ already know full well that taking something آپ 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 تصاویر with no credit to the original owner of the image will be rated harshly no matter how great the picture is... یا how much I normally like you.
Additionally, if there is a blatant Copyright notice right there on the damn picture and آپ still failed to credit the owner, I'm reporting it to Fanpop -and- notifying the owner of the image that آپ چرا لیا, چوری کی it.
Enough is enough.

A few منٹ پہلے I thought of a partial answer to the حالیہ 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 یا particular piece of content has been rated low آپ 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 آپ 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 دوستوں about it I got tired of typing individual messages so I quit. So we should be able to send one message to all our دوستوں at the same time if necessary. Also there should be an area that says "new spots" on the ہوم page so that people can see what has been recently created and if they want to شامل میں the particular spot. It would really make the people who created the spots happy because they could get some good publicity.
سے طرف کی the way I made a new spot about Kal Penn, the indian guy from the وین wilder movies, Harold and Kumar go to white castle, and Epic Movie.
So if u like those فلمیں check it out. all آپ have to do is type "Kal Penn" in the تلاش engine" (obviously, I know)
Also this soapbox was ment for the fanpop spot

Hello to everyone,

As a lot of آپ know, Paris has been attacked yesterday سے طرف کی terrorists. The کنسرٹ hall "Le Bataclan" has been attacked during a concert.
128 dead and مزید 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 آپ to leave a few words, thoughts for the victims of this disaster.
Thank آپ <3
