 pergunta 7..Where can I find the FAQs?
Question 7..Where can I find the FAQs?
Basically this will be a collection of all the picks asking "HOW DO I- insert basic function here ?" (usually with the options IDK and PLZ tell me in commentz) and my short answer to these inquiries. Now that we have the new respostas feature they are usually posted as an answer request but still repeated endlessly.
I usually denunciar these kind of picks/answers and they get deleted as they are effectively spam. The drawback is: all information users leave in the comments is lost.

link seems to only be used por a limited number of fãs and though I use it frequently I hate how all information is lost in the multiple pages after a while.
I found the officiallinkdon't cover all the basics as I usually like to refer people there.

Also this is in no way meant to rival the very well writtenlink which is much mais detailed.

Who are the fanpop Four (F4)?

They are the link and run this place.

Medals (little dots you get on your perfil in green,yellow and red) are awarded por the SITE (unlike props which are awarded por USERS see Question 11) for your contributions. No one knows how it really works. Just know that if you contribute a lot of good content you will be rewarded. The F4 won't tell anyone how or when. You can read mais in the site'slink

8) How do I change my user icon?

Instead save a picture to your link. When uploading you will be asked if the image is supposed to be your new user icon. Check that box!
You can only have imagens you previously added to your gallery as a user icon. If you want another ícone click on the little "person" symbol beneath the image (there is a picture in the artigo I linked) in your gallery and your ícone will automatically be changed.

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...

On some clubes this is not a problem. However in mais active spots people tend to check mark the box so people will view their pick more. It is VERY stupid there is three types of picks spoiler, not spoiler, and ones that need to be marked spoiler. I shall now give some examples of each.

Ones that are marked but shouldn't be

I'm not leaving, munchkins..I know you are slightly disappointed now and were waiting for some eDrama (or happy to see me FINALLY desert the pop to live on my farm full time and stop clogging your "answers") but it's just boring old me sharing my thoughts on reporting. Forgive me..it's Sunday..and I had the time.
I sometimes stumble across obvious spam (yes, I'm talking aboot you chinese shoe and handbag sellers!) on this site that has been there for months and I wonder why it was never removed. I also see quizzes where people have been informed of a mistake and yet months later the wrong quiz...
