This list isn't in any particular order, it just things I want Fanpop to change.Anyway, onto the list.
5.Not Being Able To Change Images After Posting:
As dumb as this sounds, I had no idea that posting someone else's fanart as polls or as my profile picture was illegal. It should be clear as day to see that publicly displaying other people's art without their permission is illegal. So when I tried to fix my mistake by replacing it with a part of the work(like images from the original show) it didn't work. Why? I'm not sure, it just didn't. This is something that desperately needs to be fixed. What if I put up the image of a different show? Or in my case, needs to be fixed because it violates copyright laws? What do I do then?
4.Not Being Able To Delete Polls:
You know what else annoys me? Not being able to delete polls. I have several of polls that I didn't like or was worded wrong that I couldn't delete.I understand if they were comments, but otherwise, I don't see any harm with deleting polls. Under some circumstances, deleting polls would be more helpful. For example, if there's an expiration on it then I would prefer it if the poll was deleted. As the poll doesn't have much of a reason to exist and just confuse and annoys. Also deleting copied polls in a club would a big help.I see a lot of repetitive polls in the Total Drama Island Club and it would help bring more variety to the club and would help stop a kind of spam if some polls were deleted.
3.A Search Button For Articles:
This needs to be installed for obvious reasons.1. It's hard to find what I want if I can't search it up. 2. What's the point of keywords, if no one would be able to use them? 3. So I wouldn't have to go past rows of articles before getting to the article I want. This would make navigation a lot easier and makes it so I can find whatever article I want.
2.Better Security for Stopping Fake Accounts:
Do you know how easy it is to make another account?You don't need a verified email or a phone number. Pick whatever password or username you want, and BAM you're done.This makes it way too easy to make troll accounts and this makes once banned users come back and cause the same harm again easily. So yeah..this is a problem that would be 10x worse if Fanpop got popular. Trolls and cyber bullies would've flooded the site. Which, of course, wouldn't be a good thing.
1.Being Able to Recover an Account that Deleted, If I Used My Email:
I'm not sure how many people know this, but I used to have an old account named very similarly to this one. However, when I deleted it I instantly regretted it and tried to get it back, but it didn't work. I would like to recover my account for several of reasons. A. to bring back earned gold and medals. B. so I'm able to use my email again to get notifications. C. This goes back to the last one, so when I change my mind, I have an account to retrieve. Especially if the admins of Fanpop actually made an update based on my last complaint then this would be a definite need..for me at least.
