This लेख describes two different kinds of feedback to the फैन्पॉप staff that are often confused for one another, and was last edited on 28 October 2008.
Feedback on the web site
Like any commercial software enterprise, web sites provide a product to their customers. In Fanpop's case, the product is a great site for joining together with other प्रशंसकों of topics that interest आप in order to share quality content and make friends. But as with any product, feedback is very important to both maintain and improve the product. But feedback for maintaining the site is fundamentally different than feedback on improving या changing the site. In general, feedback on the maintenance of the site is either praise या bug reports, while feedback on changing the site tends to be suggestions for new या enhanced features. While these are both very important, they are also very different types of feedback. Appropriately, there are very different ways for providing those two types of feedback.
What is a bug?
A bug is what आप call something that is broken in a piece of software. If it doesn't work as advertised, then it's a bug. The term originated in the earliest, mechanical days of computing, when a small flaw, bit of dust या even a small crawling thing could cause a circuit short, obscure a पंच card या otherwise tangle a mechanism. Unexpected problems came to be referred to as "bugs", and the term continued into the days when programs evolved into code stored on magnetic media, even though the reference implies some unpredictable outside interference rather than problems with the programmer's design.
Note: this does not include broken लिंक्स on Fanpop. Those are just एक्स्पायर्ड URLs, generally, and not a problem with the site's application. If आप encounter a broken link on Fanpop, link.
But if the functioning of the site is broken, या just behaves inconsistently, then that's a bug.
Some examples of bugs that have appeared on फैन्पॉप (and have since been fixed या resolved द्वारा the attentive staff):
* all अपडेट्स shown in "My Updates" were videos
* clicking "prev" on a page of results would always return the user to the first page of results
* the form for uploading वीडियो wouldn't submit
* an user's सूची of spots overlapped with graphical elements on the user's प्रोफ़ाइल page
* sometimes तस्वीरें would load on a page, and other times blank spaces would appear where the तस्वीरें were supposed to load (an example of inconsistent behavior)
What is a suggestion?
The distinction between a bug and a suggestion/request for enhancement may not be clear. In general, if आप see something that could be improved, but which works as it is, then that's a suggestion, not a bug. Put another way, a suggestion is anything आप feel should work differently on Fanpop.
BUGS
Software bugs appear virtually every time a change is made to software code, though they may not be immediately obvious. If आप believe that आप have encountered a bug, there are two steps to follow.
First, check to see that there isn't a problem on your computer that may be causing the issue. If there isn't a problem, then secondly आप need to रिपोर्ट the bug.
Checking your own system
I'm not going to go into detailed instructions on how to troubleshoot problems for every combination of Operating System and web browser - that sort of troubleshooting is what I do for work - but I will give some general tips as to the sort of things आप should check before reporting a bug.
I: Check to see if the problem is reproducible
आप visit Fanpop, and something weird happens. Say, for instance, all the वीडियो in a दिया club disappear/become invisible. Before आप run off to प्रस्तुत करे a bug report, try shutting down your browser, restart it, and reload the particular page. Is the problem still there? If the वीडियो magically reappear, it's likely to not be a bug on Fanpop, but rather a problem with that session of your web browser.
II: Check to see if the problem is specific to Fanpop
For another example, let's say आप visit फैन्पॉप and all the text is green. Before आप प्रस्तुत करे a bug report, try going to another web site. If text on other web sites look suspiciously verdant as well, then it's likely to be a problem with your browser settings and not a फैन्पॉप bug.
III: Check to see if the problem exists in multiple browsers and/or operating systems
This is the dream one for people who run web sites. If आप have another web browser installed on your system, try reproducing the problem in a different web browser. For example, आप use Firefox as your browser, and आप notice that all the तस्वीरें in a दिया club appear to be broken. Before filing a bug report, आप launch the Opera browser (or Chrome, Safari, Internet Explorer, et cetera) and load the same club. If the तस्वीरें appear broken in both browsers, it's much और likely to be a फैन्पॉप bug.
Similarly, if आप can test the bug in multiple operating systems (if आप can test it on a linux machine and a Max OSX machine, for example), that's good to try, too.
Reporting a bug
Once आप have done some simple checking and confirmed that the problem does not seem to be on your end, you're ready to रिपोर्ट a bug. How do आप do it?
First, scroll to the bottom of any page on the फैन्पॉप web site. There you'll find a bunch of links, and one of them is link. Click that. You'll be presented with a form with three fields: a pull-down menu to select the reason for your message, a place to put your e-mail address, and a larger box for लेखन your message. For a bug report, it's important that आप fill out all three fields. First, select "found a bug" in the pull-down menu. Second, enter your e-mail address in the "E-mail" field. If the फैन्पॉप staff examine your रिपोर्ट and have questions, they'll need to be able to contact आप for further details about the problem(s) you've experienced. Third, आप must describe the bug precisely.
Here's a little form for reporting a bug, which आप can copy, paste into the form, and then fill out as completely as आप can:
******************
summary of problem:
तारीख, दिनांक experienced:
time experienced:
browser(s):
operating system(s):
URL:
What exactly did I do to experience the problem:
******************
For "summary of problem", write a single sentence that describes the bug, and try to be as specific as आप can. In other words, rather than लेखन "site not working", try to describe what precisely isn't working, such as "editing my तस्वीरें in the Hawaii spot not working". Having a descriptive summary can help the staff quickly figure out if this is a bug they already know, या a new one.
For the "date" and "time", put when आप experienced the problem. Knowing when the problem happened can help the staff narrow down such things in the logs of site activity, and can make it easier to discover that there was a problem with a दिया server, a particularly high level of site traffic, या other unusual occurrence that might have caused the problem.
For "browser(s)" and "operating system(s)" put all the browsers and operating systems which आप tried and for which the problem still persisted. This again helps the staff, in some cases, to determine whether the problem is a known one या not, as well as helping them to reproduce the problem. If you're using Safari and the staff is all using Firefox, it will take them a long time to discover the problem if it doesn't appear in Firefox and आप neglect to provide which browser आप used.
URL: This is probably the most important thing that is left out of most bug reports, in general. आप need to tell where आप saw the problem, with a full, absolute URL, including the link या link
What exactly did I do: Here आप need to provide a step-by-step account of what आप were doing to experience the problem. This is important in two respects: first, that it's clear to the staff what the problem is and how to recreate it, and second, that, in walking through the steps a सेकंड time, आप may discover that आप made some small mistake at some point in the process, and that nothing is actually broken after all.
The फैन्पॉप staff are VERY motivated to fix bugs with the site, as आप might imagine. But they are not omniscient (no matter what anyone says to the contrary). This means that if आप write about a problem आप had in a club's forum, it will almost certainly not be seen द्वारा the staff. So I repeat: do not रिपोर्ट bugs in a club's forum. Do not send a private message to your प्रिय staff member - that also can take a while to be seen, and chances are that the person who will fix the bug is not the person आप chose to send the message. Use the link link
to रिपोर्ट all bugs/problems आप find with the site.
SUGGESTIONS
The फैन्पॉप staff has provided a मंच for users to provide feature requests for the site, appropriately called link. If आप have a suggestion for how the site could change/be improved, that मंच is the appropriate place to put it. For example, if आप think your प्रोफ़ाइल should display a picture from your प्रोफ़ाइल gallery at बिना सोचे समझे each time it is loaded, you'd describe that in a post to the "Suggestions and Ideas" forum. The फैन्पॉप staff periodically goes through the मंच to see if there are any good ideas that can be implemented easily, या great ideas that the site just has to have. Note, however, that posting a request there does not in any way mean that it will be implemented. It's just the right place to put it. Being publicly पोस्टेड also has the advantage that other users can chime in to support your idea, to refine it, या to clarify it.
SUMMARY
Thus, to reiterate: suggestions are ideas आप have that change how the site works, bugs are problems where the site isn't working. Suggestions get पोस्टेड to the link forum, bugs get पोस्टेड via the link link.

Phenomenon
Ten years ago, फैन्पॉप made its presence on the Internet and people joined the site one way या another. I first found out about फैन्पॉप when I did a गूगल Image खोजिए on "link". That was back in May 2010, in which I signed up for the site as CHILDISHY; now I use my ReptarZolo account to match with my current DeviantArt account. All those years, फैन्पॉप became cluttered with various types of violative content, including and especially pornography. With only four admins, I don't believe फैन्पॉप will last any longer; this can be prevented if the admins promote some users, preferably those they trust, to become moderators and help clean up the site.
Ok so I'm sooo sorry If I waited to long to do the story I SWEAR! that i'm going to do it tomorrow i'm so sorry. I have to many problems and i'm very emotional the last couple of days and it's a big problem with my family and i'm very sad but i really will start the story I swear! I cant really tell u about my family issues but I need someone to talk to. But on the other hand if आप can be my co-writer i would प्यार that but आप have to be good like not basic, आप know how when people push the story too fast...
Example for some of आप dumbass trifflin नितंब, गधा cunt नितंब, गधा bitches: Yolanda dated this boy named Prince then he bullied her then he liked her afterwards the got married had a baby named Rolanda and Prince got hit द्वारा a car trying to see an old friend a पार करना, क्रॉस the सड़क, स्ट्रीट 2 years later Yolanda sold Rolanda n got on crack,died, and lived happily ever after with Prince in heaven.

ATTENTION: This is just a user opinion's on what could be cool for Fanpop.
1. Customize Profile: Everyone likes to have a nice प्रोफ़ाइल homepage, so my first idea is we have a chance of customize our own profile, with backgrounds, colors, fonts etc...
2. Medal Meter: I think every Fanpopers like to know how much are they far to get a medal on the spot, so my 2nd idea is FP give us the chance to see if we are far या close to get our medal.
3. प्रोफ़ाइल Viewers: How many and what users did check our profile.
4. टिप्पणी दे Reply Notice: Be notice in आप अपडेट्स when someone reply आप in a comment.
5. Possibility to Change User name: Sometimes people don't like their user names...a opportunity to change would be nice ;)
Hope आप Enjoy It
