Homophobia - Stop the Hate

posted by dramallama56

Learn to love and not hate

This was originally going to be an article on all sorts of hatred, discrimination and prejudice. But then I had something horrible happen to me online this morning, and I decided that I was going to focus on one, simple, hate.

Homophobia.

In my experience, it's absolutely horrible. So in this article, I'm going to discuss why you should put a stop to it, and just go through a couple of small anecdotes, expressing to you how hateful, horrible and mean it can be.

Anecdote One
Blind Homophobia
When I was a wee sixth grader (okay, it was only two years ago but still, I was even shorter than I am...

Ratings!!

posted by ClaireB58

This topic may already exist as a soapbox but I have to say that things on certain spots seem to being rated one star CONSTANTLY. People have complained in forums on more than one occasion, no fan would rate something one star if they liked the subject the spot was dedicated to, has anyone else noticed this on any spots?

It happens on the One Tree Hill spot, and others related to it, I'm sure that someone else is really annoyed about this!! It is really childish! Sometimes it is pages of content all rated one star and somehow I feel convincedthat it is NOT a coincidence!!!

Can you please comment!

The Non-Commitment of Comment Fiasco

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...

Invite Your Friends to Fanpop!

posted by dave

Spread the word about Fanpop to all your friends!

So you've stumbled upon Fanpop because you were Googling or clicked on a link somewhere. The next thing you know you start joining a few spots that you're a fan of...then more spots...and even more spots. For spots you can't find, you might even start creating new spots. Then you start adding videos, images and links to spots. You discover Picks and can't stop answering questions in all your spots (and even some spots that you're not even a fan of!). You start making picks and even writing soapbox articles. All of the sudden people are adding you as a fan and you're earning medals and getting...

The Fanpop Community

posted by benji

So last night, August the 2nd/3rd, depending on where you were, I witnessed a phenomenon I have not seen on the internet for quite some time, I've seen glimmers of it, hints and comments, but I've not had it so blatantly thrust in my face until last night. I am, of course, talking about unity. No, not unity against a 'common enemy' or a 'troll' as many people on the internet assume is unity, but genuine "I can just click something to make someone feel a little better" kind of unity.

You see true believer, I have a faith in one thing, 'The small things count'. Whether it's just a passing 'hello',...

If you can't say something nice......

posted by Temptasia

Yep, they do!

As a rule, I wouldn't make a big deal about this, but it has been bothering me for a long time. I understand the importance of correct grammar, spelling, and the use of the proper punctuation, and what I am about to say has nothing to do with this. I also understand having an opinion that differs with another person, but when somebody makes a pick or writes a comment it takes time and effort to do so. What bothers me is when people leave mean comments about how either their question is stupid or even how stupid the person is for making a pick. The reason we join spots and make picks is because...

The Day the Fanpop Died

posted by Temptasia

*Disclaimer: This article does not reflect actual events. Any similarities in real life to this article are unintentional…. And wow, extremely pathetic and hilarious ;)
I have been waiting all day to find out the results of the Fanpoppies. I was refreshing every 10 minutes just to see if the results had been posted. After awhile I decided to go out to lunch with some friends (sushi yum). Little did I know that at home a great horror awaited me. Fanpop was dead!
First there was anger and then tears. I had no idea what to do. The horrible truth...

Putting A Face To The Username's

posted by ali22

Im on Fanpop everyday now, (like loads of other user's....im addicted!) I feel i have made a load of new friends, some a lot younger than me, some my own age and some slightly older. I would really like it if we could all use our own pictures as our icon's for a week or so as i would love to put a face to all the username's. I know a lot of you do use your own picture so this is just for the people like me who don't.

While im here i would like to say a huge thank you to Dave, Papa, Micheal and Cliff for all your hard work and giving us an amazing website to visit everyday!

Will also thank all you user's.....Cressida, Kathiria, Megloveskyle, Harold, DrDevience, Benji and so many more of you! You guys rock and make Fanpop such a good place to be! :)

The Fanpop Fanpeeves

posted by benji

I've spent the last fortnight or so getting a little peeved with certain things on Fanpop, they're mostly the tiny things, but if I don't mentioned them, I'm going to outburst on some poor person who doesn't deserve it, so instead, I'm giving a bit of global Fanpop advice, you ready? Here we go...

Get off your soapbox!
Lately I’ve been noticing the most frustrating thing from a lot of rather popular and regular Fanpoppers. Writing articles that don’t have any heart, they barely have content and they’ve clearly just been added to voice a passing opinion that could have been done in pick...
