 swali 7..Where can I find the FAQs?
Question 7..Where can I find the FAQs?
Basically this will be a collection of all the picks asking "HOW DO I- insert basic function here ?" (usually with the options IDK and PLZ tell me in commentz) and my short answer to these inquiries. Now that we have the new majibu feature they are usually ilitumwa as an answer request but still repeated endlessly.
I usually ripoti these kind of picks/answers and they get deleted as they are effectively spam. The drawback is: all information users leave in the maoni is lost.

link seems to only be used kwa a limited number of mashabiki and though I use it frequently I hate how all information is Lost in the multiple pages after a while.
I found the officiallinkdon't cover all the basics as I usually like to refer people there.

Also this is in no way meant to rival the very well writtenlink which is much zaidi detailed.

They are the link and run this place.

Hi Fanpoppers. It's been a while since I've ilitumwa an makala in the fanpop Club, but I wanted to let all of wewe know about a hivi karibuni problem we've run into and see if we could implore wewe - the awesome fanpop community - to help us out

(I know, I know, I'm sure many of wewe are thinking only one problem? There's a LOT of problems on Fanpop, Papa! A LOT!!! Alas, for today, we're only going to focus on one problem!)

As wewe know, fanpop is nyumbani to a lot of klabu covering a wide range of topics and interests and within those klabu there's a great amount of latitude aliyopewa to what kind of content you...

Kathiria82
First of all, I would like to ask why people keep giving Kathiria82 a hard time? None of wewe have any reason to keep hating on her. she is a nice person and cares about everyone. I think she deserves to be treated just as nicely as everyone else does, especially when she has made the all around most contributions on Fanpop. people keep going to her spot to say how its not fair that she has a spot. It is fair. There are spots for people on fanpop that no one has ever even heard of and if they can keep theirs, Kathiria82 sure as h*ll can. She has ilitumwa nearly 3,000 links, over 5,200 videos,...

 Learn to upendo and not hate
Learn to love and not hate
This was originally going to be an makala 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 wewe should put a stop to it, and just go through a couple of small anecdotes, expressing to wewe how hateful, horrible and mean it can be.

Anecdote One
Blind Homophobia

First and for most I intend no offense here. I suppose wewe can also call this makala 'Why Maturity Is Important'. I don't hate au even dislike 12 and under users. So please don't get the wrong idea.

First and foremost I agree with it for the simple fact that rules are rules. There's an age for a reason.

And rules are usually in place for safety. In this case it isn't so much physical safety as it is mental safety. I have seen a vast array of young users who couldn't have been older than 8 post picha of themselves all over. Okay, that's their choice, but it is a little dangerous. I don't...

Hello =)

Sit down, shut up and listen to my (pretty much) unnecessary but still quite fun idea #401.
You may laugh afterwards.
But now...Silence and pay attention!

Disclaimer: Yes I admit it, I didn't come up with this idea on my own, I saw something similar years zamani on a german website.

Here we go...
POPCOINS
Popcoins are virtual fanpop money.
The idea came to my mind when I was thinking about a possibility to change one's username without being able to change it all the time and without having to pay real money.

This is how popcoins would work:
There would be a popcoin symbol right inayofuata to where the...
