Have bạn ever wanted to act like a total jerk on Fanpop? Piss people off, lose your fans, drive everyone crazy, and maybe even get banned, bạn just weren’t sure how? Here’s a handy guide on how to do exactly that!
1. Disrespect other people’s opinions. Yeah, bạn think that band XYZ sucks and bạn wouldn’t touch one of their CD’s with a ten-foot pole, and you’re going to assume that everyone on the planet shares your sentiment. Who cares if some people might not appreciate bạn going on about how the lead singer looks like a bald gorilla and sings like a cat throwing up? They should be glad you’re sharing your wisdom and insights-how on earth could bạn be being OFFENSIVE? And now that bạn mention it….what does offensive even mean again?
2. Shamelessly Medal-Whore. What? How could it possibly be annoying to bug everyone on your fanlist to người hâm mộ and bình luận on your contributions? It’s not like it’s a lot of trouble for them….I mean, they practically OWE you, right, after all the time bạn spent posting on their walls asking them to! Go ahead and keep spamming their walls if they ignore your pleas-THEY shouldn’t have ignored your incredibly reasonable request like that, how DARE they?!
Also, đăng tải zillions of useless, identical, hoặc repeat images. Who cares that that particular Katy Perry bức ảnh shoot got uploaded months ago? It’s not like anyone’s going to notice, right? And you’re probably doing people a favor uploading it again, saving them the trouble of sifting through the thousands of hình ảnh to find those pictures, right? Who cares if you’re clogging up the image feed? You’re helping Fanpop, even if your insignificant, barely-there ulterior motive is really just to get that shiny new medal on your profile.
3. Make everything be all about you. The world revolves around YOU, right? Well, so should Fanpop, DUH! Go ahead and blather on about every single insignificant detail of that oh so fabulous party bạn went to over the weekend (be jealous, VERY jealous!) to anyone who’ll chat with you! How on earth could they get bored? And of COURSE if they say they have to go, it really is for that emergency Root Canal appointment, and not just because they want to get away from your zillion messages, right?
Whenever anyone mentions anything about themselves (OMG how COULD they? Selfish and stuck-up much?!), be sure to chime in and change the subject back to yourself. User ABC went to a buổi hòa nhạc last weekend? That’s nothing. bạn got to go backstage and MEET the artist. Be sure to say so, and answer any and all các câu hỏi they may have before they even ask them, because that’s considerate, right? It’s what Những người bạn do…….hey, why are bạn leaving?!
4. Screw grammar. Typing properly is SOOOOOO overrated, right? Who cares if it’s lousy grammar “2 tlk lyk dis”? It’s easier, dammit, and you’ll do it! And spelling mistakes are the cutest EVR! Shure dey mak itt hrd 2 undrstand u, but please, it’s not like anyone on fanpop has anything better to do than translate your Trollspeak, right? And while you’re at it, be sure to MeSs wItH YOuR CaPiTAliZatiOn tOO. Might as well make people’s eyes bleed while they’re decoding your “2 awsum 4 WRDZ!” posts, eh?
5. Rudeness, schmudeness. Who cares if some may consider it impolite so tell others what bạn REALLY think of their icons, profile, etc? bạn have opinions, right? And bạn deserve to share them, dang it! If User QRS has a hideous icon, hoặc bạn disagree with their motto, be sure to tell them RIGHT AWAY! Before disaster strikes! Sure, maybe it’s not the NICEST thing to do to tell QRS that their biểu tượng makes bạn want to barf and bạn feel like strangling chó con whenever bạn read their motto-(sure, maybe that’s a bit of an exaggeration, but it’s not going to hurt their feelings hoặc anything, right?)-but really, all you’re trying to do is HELP THEM OUT, right? I mean, they’ll attract thêm people if they have a khẩu hiệu and an biểu tượng bạn like, right? They should be HONORED you’re deigning to share your take on their profile, correct?
Just remember-any suggestion that if bạn don’t like their icon/motto/etc,m then just don’t look at it should NOT be well received bởi any means. How DARE they suggest such a thing?!
6. Honesty is the best policy. Always. Didn’t your parents tell bạn it’s not okay to lie? That extends to Fanpop, right? If something is not to your refined taste, just say it! “I hate your username” hoặc “That book series bạn like isn’t even good enough to use as firewood” isn’t rude-it’s just honesty! And no, no there really isn’t’ any difference between facts and opinions…why do bạn ask?
If someone posts a picture of their pet cat, and bạn don’t really give a rip, just SAY so, instead of not bothering to bình luận at all! They should have known better! And tossing in a few các bình luận about how their yêu thích kitty is uglier than that road kill bạn saw on your road trip last summer is all in good fun…everyone’ll get that you’re kinda really just kidding, right?
Congratulations! Follow these six easy steps, and bạn should quickly lose all your những người hâm mộ and maybe even gain haters, if you’re lucky! It’s really that simple folks! Keep it up and bạn may even get your fanpop account deleted! Because who doesn’t just tình yêu a self-absorbed jerk?!

So we, as users, take a lot from fanpop every day. We watch videos, we take quiz's, share awesome links, etc. We all have gained something from Fanpop, whether it be a funny video, hoặc a cool new website. So I was thinking that perhaps maybe once a month, if even that, a mass majority (as many users we can get) would all add one thing. Whether it be a video, a quiz, a soapbox, hoặc even just a link, we would all be giving back. I was thinking that it could be the first of every month. Maybe even a time could be assigned to that date, which would allow other users to get to know each other and thread the community together. Perhaps at Four PM EST, we would all add something to Fanpop. I know many of bạn add items everyday but this would let less-contributing users thoughts be heard. These users could become hooked on fanpop and then that's +1 thêm dedicated fan. I don't know if this would take off, but if it does, it could be great. Please just leave a comment.
