4 months ago: What? It's fixed? I haven't had a chance to look at it yet. Cliff must have fixed it.

4 months ago: Ahh, people! Anyone thought of sending one of us an email? I'll try to look into the problem tomorrow.

4 months ago: I think I misunderstood the question. I thought it meant will salted water boil food faster - and due to the slightly higher boiling temp, food will cook faster.

4 months ago: I think it's a reference to a song in the movie... I got it wrong because I never got around to seeing Hercules.

5 months ago: If there's anything that I've learned from being involved in Fanpop for the last three years, it's that people are more sensitive than you think. It's easy to see all the bravado and the tough talk from nearly anonymous people on the web and on Fanpop, but it's also easy to forget that each user is a real human with complex emotions and personalities.

Having a site specifically pointing out people's mistakes and failures for the purposes of humor can be hurtful depending on who is being teased. Some people take teasing very well and can find the hilarity and humor while others... not so much. The thing is, we don't know who is who - and teasing the wrong person going through the wrong stage in their life with their particular troubles and concerns could hurt them more than intended. If something like that contributes to depression or worse, then that puts Fanpop in a really bad position.

You guys have to remember, we're just four guys doing our best. If anything bad happens (for example, someone spends a lot of time on Fanpop and makes a bunch of friends, but then makes a hilarious typo, has it posted to a blog on the internet which makes it permanent, then his friends are laughing at him, he feels alone, other stuff happens, he attempts suicide, Fanpop is mentioned as a contributing factor, we're out of business and four families are without income and you no longer have Fanpop to use), we may or may not be able to survive it.

If you guys love Fanpop, try to make it a better place (like you're doing) but also try to be empathetic and sympathetic to others and to us.

7 months ago: In the future, it would help if we got an email about a feature not working at contact@fanpop.com or via private message. I didn't find out the feature was not working until Friday, May 1 and fixed it first thing Monday morning.

7 months ago: I thought the trick was going to be that you didn't know if the clock was accurately set to local time in the first place (it's a wind up clock - you never know if he wound it recently). I missed the AM/PM trick!

7 months ago: Although, theoretically, they could collect a bunch and then stick them in all at once...

9 months ago: I think I agree with most of what Harold has written here (and of course, this is how he decides how to ask a question on Fanpop, so it can't really be wrong since it only applies to him), but I'd would ask a question that could have a single answer in the answers section and not limit myself to ones that can have multiple answers.

Some questions could definitely be better in the forums (especially the "who started this" style of question) but there are plenty of single correct answer type questions like "What happens when I add baking soda to vinegar?" that work well in the answers section. For these, there will be responses/answers that are going to be better than others (which is why we included the "vote as best answer" capability).

9 months ago: I think this was overlooked earlier when we brought up the updates feature. I'll look into including it in updates and discuss with the other guys if there was a reason why we left it out or it was accidental.
