SPC Reverend Bakie's blog: "Fubar Blogs"

Hello again.  I thought I would do a blog for new people that just got started.  I wanted to do something like this because for the past year that I have been on this site, I have seen too many good people leave due to idiots, stupid drama, and just having rude people chase them away.  So I decided to do here is to give them tips and advice for new people signing up to Fubar, so they don’t end of like the other casualties from this place.  I’ll try to be as thorough and practical as possible on some of the subjects at hand:

1.  Don’t get too carried away on VIP’s, Blasts, Tickers, or anything else on here that costs money. 

To be honest, having a VIP is not going to gain you anymore friends, or make you an better on here at Fubar if you don’t have a VIP.  There are really no special privileges you gain with a VIP, except for more space for photos, and your picture may be displayed more often on top of the screen.  Although getting a VIP, a Blast or a Ticker may help boost ones confidence, it does not give you higher status on Fubar.   Other than that, there’s isn’t really anything more with having a VIP.  Also, when I say friends, I mean ones that you actually talk to once in a while, not someone you just add on your friend’s list and never see them again.  Most of the people that tend to do that are the ones that take the site too seriously, making it out like it’s high school all over again by gaining ranks spots and being legends supposedly, when in truth it’s no real biggie.  In fact, they have more problems with drama and stupid people than the common folk that remain distant to all that is costly.  I always believe, the less people you have on your friend’s list, the less chance you have to get pointless drama around you and your page. 

2.  Downrating people is bad, but don’t get too upset over someone doing it to you. 

People on here will disagree with it, but there is no rule have you should rate a ten or not all.  You can people one’s if you so desire, but you’re going to have thousands of angry Fubarians bitch, yell, and cuss at you while they rate everything you have a one.  But, once in a great while, someone will rate you less than a ten.  Now, don’t get too mad about it, because this is merely a social website, just like a MySpace or a Facebook, only with rates and people that have popularity issues.  What I do is simply rate them the same as they did to you, that’s all.  Because there is one thing people tend to miss while you’re on Fubar; any rates, from one to ten, gets the same amount of points.  Usually if there’s a profile I don’t like, I just don’t rate them at all, because if you think about it, they still get points if you rate them a one.  Just looking at the page doesn’t give them anything.  Now, there’s an extremist group on here called the Tru-Raters that are trying to push the idea of rating someone what they should be, not just give them a ten.  Although I do respect their argument, I could not stand beside them and rate people what they should be because it’s really sort of rude.  Also, they rate people by the way they look, and not by their personality, which I do not like at all. 

3.  If you’re a guy, and you’re just here to look at naughty pics, you’re not going to go very far on Fubar.

I’m just being honest on this one.  I mean, there are some women on here that will let you look that their NSFW pics, which mean Not Safe For Work if you were wondering, but most of the ladies here that do NSFW pics would like to talk the guys looking at them.  In fact, most of the women that do show NSFW pics ask for things in return, like a VIP, a Blast, or a Bling Pack.  Now, this is not that bad, say if you want to give money to Fubar, not to the ladies that are showing you their clit or boobs.   This is why I don’t tend to agree with spending money on here to look at someone’s naughty folders.  The way I see it, it’s the woman’s choice if they want me to see them, not me.  Plus, I am not on Fubar to just look at naked women, I am on here to socialize with like minded people as myself, looking at ones NSFW pics to me is merely an optional perk if allowed to.  I mean seriously, if I do want to look a nudity that much, there are thousands of other places on the internet where I can see that besides Fubar, and also there are two porn shops in my area I can go to if I really want.  Also, there are women on here that are very against NSFW pics to the point if you ask them, they will block you in a second.  If you don’t believe me, try doing so with some with the women on my friends list, they’ll give you an ass chewing in the process.

4.  If you’re a woman, and you’re wanting to put up naughty pics on Fubar, watch who you let look at them. 

Even the guys who will buy you VIP’s, Blasts, or Bling Packs to look at whatever you put up can become a problem after a period of time.  I mean, once after a while of buying that stuff for you, they may start asking for more, like wanting to meet up or wanting to see you on cam and all that good stuff that comes with it, and some guys don’t care if you’re in a relationship or married.  Also, there are guys that will copy your pictures onto his computer and create a porn site of his own for other people that are not even on Fubar, so that is another thing you have to watch out, considering if the wrong people see it.  For instance, if you’re looking to get a really good job, and you wanted to have some fun on Fubar by putting up naked pictures of you, let a few guys see them and one happens to do what I said earlier, and all the places where you send your resumes to search the web looking for your page on social websites and happen to run into a naked picture of you.  It won’t be good for you, because wherever you’re applying to will disregard your resume due to bad character.  In fact, anyone that has a social profile must watch out what they put on their page, because employers will look on the web to see how you really are.  What I do is keep all mine on private to where only friends can see them, or the ones I do have for public view, not put down my real name on there.  All it is really is just being safe on the internet.   Also, putting up NSFW pics of you can create drama as well, for being if the guy that has acceptance to looking at them has a girlfriend or wife.

5.  Don’t get too uptight about people on here if they don’t talk to you right away.

Especially if it’s someone that always has a VIP with fifty thousand friends and millions of fans.  Chances are they have tons of messages from people that think if they talk to them, they will be just as cool as they are.  But you have to remember, Fubar is just a social website.  It is not like the rest of the world, it is not a popularity contest nor it is high school.  I cannot stress that to you anymore than that.  Also, there are people on here that actually do have lives outside the internet, and some may be offline for a week at a time.  I know, because I tend to go offline in long intervals, just to see the light of day and the nice blue sky.  Above all, just have fun on here, don’t take things too seriously, respect people on here, and you’ll do just fine.  Try to read people’s profiles first before adding them as a friend or even becoming a fan of theirs.  All in all, just use some common sense while on here.
