nobody's perfect
When i first came to fanpop i didn't really do anything much but make the occasional pick and watch video but when i did start to contribute zaidi it was because of the nice maoni and messages that mashabiki sent me that made me a addict.

I upendo to contribute for others but i upendo it even zaidi when someone shows that they appreciate it weather it be a prop, a nice maoni au message au simply rating it.
If mashabiki hadn't of been so nice i probably wouldn't spend even a quarter of much time on fanpop as i do now, as the best thing is talking and joking with the Marafiki I've made on here.

So it truly does annoy and upset me when i see mashabiki criticizing new fans. Now don't get me wrong, I'm all for telling new mashabiki about repeat picks, grammar and image credits but only if it's done in a constructive and friendly manner.

for example on a hivi karibuni pick, yes it had a funny spelling mistake on the swali itself but there was no need for mashabiki to say stuff like

"you can't spell for crap"
"my god, what did wewe think the preview was for?"
"get a creative mind"
"seriously get a dictionary"

au another example is from a soapbox

"gee, how original"
"unoriginal and I'm not sure this passes as English?"
"what do wewe think spell check is for?"
"well it gave me a laugh"

now wewe may read these maoni and think they all must be from trolls au something, but a lot of of these maoni were from users who are generally brilliant and have always been really nice to me and other users and i do understand their frustration and i too have occasionally left a maoni that was probably harsher than it should have been.

So if wewe are going to criticize someone
-try and make it polite
-don't be sarcastic with them
-remember English isn't everybodies' first language
-try and point out something positive
-make it constructive

I think one of the best things is when i see a shabiki sticking up for a new user and encouraging them
as like i alisema encouragement is what made me and I'm sure many other users stick around and become addicts.
and of course all new users are brilliant, as they bring loads of new ideas and we were all new once.
 roll out the welcome mat for new mashabiki

...and appearantly too stupid to get banned.

Let me explain.
This morning I got up, had breakfast and decided to leave fanpop and twitter.
Don't ask why, various reasons, don't feel like elaborating them right now.

So I'm saying to myself "Caramelmilk, if wewe leave, wewe have to leave with a BOOM." Which means I wanted my account to disappear like a fart in the atmosphere.
I thought "How hard can it be to get banned, even people who were not trying to get banned do get banned.
And if wewe get banned kwa "accident" wewe can always message the F4 in a couple of months if wewe decide wewe wanna come back."...
