99% of আপনি are amazing fans! This is a guide on dealing with the 1%.
To summarize:
1. প্রতিবেদন ATTACKERS IMMEDIATELY. আপনি are doing the entire community a favor as they are probably attacking other members.
আপনি MUST PROVIDE AS MUCH EVIDENCE AS POSSIBLE IN THE প্রতিবেদন FIELD, including লিঙ্ক to the attacks.
Attacks are personal insults, threats, bigotry, etc. A person saying they don't like a contribution is NOT an attack. Having a বিতর্ক is also not an attack until insults/threats etc. are mixed in.
2. IGNORE THEM. DO NOT RESPOND BACK. If আপনি attack back, আপনি are probably giving the attacker/troll what they want. We won't dig through 20 pages of reports to find out who started it. In some cases, both people will be banned.
3. Reporting is not a weapon. People who fraudulently প্রতিবেদন enemies, do not provide details, and/or repeatedly প্রতিবেদন people without providing evidence may also be removed from Fanpop. Some weirdos প্রতিবেদন their own fake users. Seriously, আপনি are asking for it, and আপনি aren't fooling anyone.
4. CHEATERS WILL BE BANNED: DON'T SWITCH TO YOUR FAKE ACCOUNTS EVER AGAIN
Don't switch accounts to jack up your fans, props, মতামত votes, অথবা whatever. It's not fair to the honest fans. If আপনি have বন্ধু who do this, please send them this article.
ALL of your accounts will be banned for life if a moderator chooses, even if আপনি have amazing medals. I'm sure আপনি can think of some famous banned fans, so we are serious. Consider this the final warning.
If আপনি created multiple accounts for any reason, pick one, and do not ever log into the other accounts again. আপনি don't need to মোছা the old accounts, but do not use them. Excuses like "it's my brother/sister/dog's account" won't cut it.
Everyone is forgiven at this point. If you've cheated in the past, just don't do it again.
If আপনি get caught cheating after this প্রবন্ধ is published, আপনি are toast, and আপনি may lose your "main" account forever.
This is an প্রবন্ধ describing how and why bans happen. It's an updated প্রবন্ধ based on one we পোষ্ট হয়েছে in a troublesome club.
We've recently lifetime-banned several of the most troublesome users and deleted all of their content. In other words, there is no coming back for them. All their contributions are gone.
"But Fanpop, how can I avoid getting banned? I'm just a nice, honest, non-cheating fan!"
If someone picks a fight with you, DO NOT RESPOND, and immediately প্রতিবেদন it, and make sure আপনি link to অথবা quote the offending content. We absolutely need all the details. If আপনি simply প্রতিবেদন the user without providing evidence, no action will be taken against them.
Also, we're talking about personal attacks, not normal human interactions.
Example:
A অনুরাগী writes: "You suck and yo mamma sucks" ->You প্রতিবেদন them->Troll banned for life->You helped ফ্যানপপ terminate a troll and made ফ্যানপপ a better place!
Bad example:
Another অনুরাগী writes: "This was some interesting fanfic, but the first section is taken word-for-word from my work last week. Here's the link. Do আপনি mind changing it অথবা attributing it to me?"->They are NOT a Troll, NOT banned, আপনি should change your fanfic immediately, and আপনি just wasted everyone's time. That being said, if the অনুরাগী started the post with a slur অথবা insult, they would have a problem.
There's a saying that "you can get away with almost anything if আপনি do it nicely." While we're not necessarily encouraging people to try to get away with stuff, the "nicely" part is the key takeaway.
প্রদত্ত the volume of content and literally millions of fans, we cannot go and dig through a thousand মতামত to find out "who started it."
Think of it this way: if teachers and parents right now don't have time to figure out "who started it", imagine if one's parents had millions of children. Are they going to have time to sift through everything?
If আপনি do respond to ব্যক্ত troll and there is a ton of back and forth, with both sides cussing each other out, both of আপনি will be banned from ever joining ফ্যানপপ again. There is a good chance moderators will মোছা 100% of your content and strip your পদক and caps, as well.
If your buddy was banned, please do not bother to contact us. There was a very good reason, and saying "he was really nice to me" really means nothing. Even criminals are nice to some people. Giving a moderator attitude will be bad for everyone, and আপনি won't be helping your friend's case.
The good news is that 99% of the users here are great people and not causing problems. Be cool and courteous with one another, report trolls immediately, WITH LINKED EVIDENCE, and every time WITHOUT responding to them, and, together, we'll purge them from ফ্যানপপ once and for all.

I am not here to lecture আপনি yet again on ছবি crediting. I am done with that.
I am way past the lecturing and into downright grrrrrr-ville.
আপনি already know full well that taking something আপনি did not create and not giving full credit to the owner is theft. Your excuses mostly boil down to laziness at this point.
So.
This is my public notice that any and all প্রতিমূর্তি with no credit to the original owner of the image will be rated harshly no matter how great the picture is... অথবা how much I normally like you.
Additionally, if there is a blatant Copyright notice right there on the damn picture and আপনি still failed to credit the owner, I'm reporting it to ফ্যানপপ -and- notifying the owner of the image that আপনি গাউন it.
Enough is enough.

A few মিনিট পূর্বে I thought of a partial answer to the সাম্প্রতিক outbreak of internet trolls we've had over the last few moths.
Ladies and Gentlepoppers, I introduce to you:
The ATSOF (The Anti Troll Squad Of Fanpop)
This will be a society of fanpoppers who work together to justly rate any content which has (without reason) been rated low.
My plan is to make an ATSOF Spot; if a spot অথবা particular piece of content has been rated low আপনি can alert the ATSOF spot about this and some of the "fans" of the spot will head over to the content and rate the content fairly, therefore boosting the rating.
Please tell me what আপনি think; I don't want to create a Ghost-Spot-to-be

If we make a new spot we want to make it popular. Recently I made a new spot so when I wanted to send a message to all my বন্ধু about it I got tired of typing individual messages so I quit. So we should be able to send one message to all our বন্ধু at the same time if necessary. Also there should be an area that says "new spots" on the প্রথমপাতা page so that people can see what has been recently created and if they want to যোগদান the particular spot. It would really make the people who created the spots happy because they could get some good publicity.
দ্বারা the way I made a new spot about Kal Penn, the indian guy from the অগ্রদূত wilder movies, Harold and Kumar go to white castle, and Epic Movie.
So if u like those চলচ্চিত্র check it out. all আপনি have to do is type "Kal Penn" in the খুঁজুন engine" (obviously, I know)
Also this soapbox was ment for the ফ্যানপপ spot

Hello to everyone,
my name is Inès, and I'm French.
As a lot of আপনি know, Paris has been attacked yesterday দ্বারা terrorists. The সঙ্গীতানুষ্ঠান hall "Le Bataclan" has been attacked during a concert.
128 dead and আরো than 200 wounded are for now counted. This is a tragedy.
I was born and I've lived in Paris, and I often go there and to the Bataclan to attend concerts, and seeing this, is just awful. The whole country is shocked and desperate.
3 national days of mourning have been declared.
I invite আপনি to leave a few words, thoughts for the victims of this disaster.
Thank আপনি <3
