Okay, this has been brewing in me for a while and I think that now is the time to bring it all out into the open.... I speak of the burgeoning conflict that is the rating-to-comment ratio.

Lets break this down; On numerous occasions, I have added various links to many different sites, and always venture back to see what people think of the link, or their reaction to it (be that positive, negative, or even criticism towards me). But over the last few months it has become increasingly obvious that people are rating the link, but leaving no comment!

The way I see it, its like breaking into your neighbours house when they're out, having a look around and using their toilet (without flushing), and then not telling them when they get home.

I don't think I am being unreasonable in the suggestion that if you read a link, pick, soapbox, watch a video or whatever, that you also leave a comment afterwards. I'm not asking for you to write a new bible chapter in a comment, but just show a little appreciation, or say what you thought... because you DID have a reaction to it... you're not some kind of Borg-like creature with no emotions! If you've given it 5 stars, then say it was good... if you've given it 1, then say why!

I like going back to something I posted and seeing the response of the fanpoppers.... it's like publishing a book and leitura the reviews afterwards... you find out what the fãs did/didn't like and can either feel pleased with yourself, or react accordingly.

In some cases (mostly with Picks) there is a pergunta that could really dividido, dividir the field and prove to be debate-tastic... yet people seemingly vote for controversial choices, and then don't explain themselves! Its like an Army Chief announcing that the only way to achieve world peace is to kill all Gay people... then running away to do it! You can't say, or agree to, something like that and then not explain yourself!

But mostly I think the issue lies within the '5 estrela Ratings'... whenever something is rated '5 Stars' it seems to be then that people don't respond, as if they feel they don't have to comment after giving it a topo, início rating. Whenever I see such a link with NO comments... its like when you saw the cloned Ripley's in Alien Resurrection.... there is just no soul (and they might as well be deformed).

As for the links with mais ratings than comments, it's like something is missing... like someone has stolen from the link, but not given back. So (at risk of sounding like a Telethon) lets do it, lets give back...

Now, I amor props as much (or more) than the seguinte person and when I go to my page and see that someone has given me a prop I am in a happy little bubble for the rest of the day. I think this is a wonderful feature so that people can be recognized for their outstanding work. However, there is a etiquette that goes along with giving props. Props are something you should give if you feel that a person has contributed something funny, substantial, unique, outstanding, or just plain awesome in your eyes. They are essentially a reward for hard work that you have done. They are like a virtual high...

As usual I'm not delusional enough to think that I can prevent spam- of course not!
But I get so tired of seeing the same things over and over in my atualizações and then typing the same stuff over and over. Also people dont seem to grasp the use of palavras chave so maybe this will help some in that respect,too.

Now I know the searchbar is scary! I saw it for the first time myself when I was a new user and was reluctant to try it. Who knows what might happen when you click that procurar button!?! But one dia I summoned all my courage I tried and it didn't hurt. Now there was a surprise! Back then there was...

Big news! I, personally have sent an application for a new artigo for fanpop on Wikipedia! Hopefully, within the month, fanpop will have a Wikipedia artigo for you all to check out and add onto! Additionally, this may help make fanpop mais well known.

Boy, I can almost TASTE it- a big, beefy record of history about Fanpop's past, present, and future!

If you want to see proof, just click this link.

Hello fanpoppers! Gabriella here with some things about Fanpop. Just wanted to say some things...



According to current fanpop users, the people [on fanpop] are annoying and mean. Well let me just comment on that- that is true!

Yeah, I could be mean at points but this is the dang internet! Nobody MUST like you! It is a choice to like one another but you have to show some respect!

When you look at a user's profile. You may think: Oh.. so this person likes glee and scooby-doo? What you think is different from what you do. Remember that. If you go on their wall, before you post hate and though...

Quizzes:

Expand viewing answerers to ALL fanpoppers,not just from the fanlist.

Being able to editar the teste at all times,and not just the question,but the 4 answers.

Giving mais creative names for super-quiz milestones,shortening them up a little,and making the current prize visible on the profile.

Giving a time to answer a quiz,people sometimes go on websites to check their answers,it's not fair!

Not making a for number of characters for answers.

Stop deleting quizzes for the wrong reasons,research it first (I know how many quizzes get reported everyday,but it's their job,isn't it?)
