A Friend must accept your request to become a Friend. A Fan can become a Fan of anyone on the site. fubar has celebrity guests and athletes and they can get overwhelmed with Friend requests so it is easier sometimes just to become a Fan.
fubar members are unable to remove fans unless they are blocked from your account by you.
Members can use our Search feature that is located at the top right hand corner of your home page. General Search for those on fubar or Web via Google search; Location Search to find those members who are 10 -100 miles of the ZIP code that you type in, and you have a selection of locating Women only, Men only, Don’t care, and can select by relationship status.

To create a bulletin, click on the My Bulletin Board link from your homepage, then click on the "post a new bulletin!" link. You will see an option to send the bulletin to all of your Friends or both your Friends and Fans. Type in the subject and content of your bulletin and hit the "post" button to submit.

fubar prohibits posting of commercial and NSFW content in bulletins.
When you read a bulletin in your bulletin board, there is a button to "repost" the bulletin. Reposting is often necessary because the person who posted the bulletin might not be friends with everyone who you're friends with so it allows you to "repost" the bulletin in your bulletin board to all YOUR friends. This way, your friends can see it too without you having to cut & paste. A small note is added to the bottom of the post to indicate who reposts it. It costs 10 fuBucks to re-post bulletins.
Please do not repost NSFW or commercial materials in the bulletins.
Click on the "my bulletin board" link at the top of your bulletins on your homepage. You will be given the option to delete from there.
Your bulletins can be viewed from your bulletin board alongside bulletins from your friends and fans. Click into your bulletin board page to see the views, comments, and date posted. You can only delete your own bulletins from the site.
You can turn off email alerts by going to your Home Page and clicking on the "My" drop down menu and selecting "Settings" on the top left hand side of your page. Look for the "email alerts" tab and make sure it says "off", then scroll down to the bottom of the page where you will be asked to enter a code (Bouncer ID check) and click "submit" in order for your new settings to take place.
The Crush feature allows members to anonymously have crushes on other members. Any member can have a crush on any other member, but only one crush can be given out per member. However, any given member can have multiple crushes from multiple members.
To select your crush, go to their profile and hit the "Make my crush!" link below their primary photo. Once you've selected your crush, they will be sent an alert that tells them that someone anonymously has a crush on them. You must be level 3 or greater to have a crush on someone.
Click on the trash can icon above the crush field and follow the prompt.
Lounges are areas on the site created by fubar members where multiple members can meet in one place all at once and chat. By default, you are automatically subscribed to the fubar Support Lounge upon signing up. Members can easily subscribe and unsubscribe to their favorite lounges.
Click on the "My" drop down menu on the gray headerbar and select "lounges" on the top left hand side of your page. Look for the "create a lounge" link and follow the prompts. Keep in mind that fubar Support will NOT teach you how to create a lounge, but you can likely find help from power members and bouncers when visiting the fubar Support Lounge. You must be level 10 or greater to create a lounge and it costs 100, 000 fubucks.
The following rules must be followed in your lounge. Not doing so will result in your lounge being locked or deleted:
- NO tip jars!! You may not solicit for payments of any kind in the lounge
- You are responsible and accountable for all radio stream content in your lounge
- Read and be familiar with our terms of service. These apply to the lounges. If they are not followed, your lounge will be deleted and your profile may as well
NOTE: If your lounge is popular, you'll make some fuBucks every week. If nobody uses it, you'll be charged a few fuBucks to keep it open after a week. If your account is inactive for 90 days *AND* you fail to pay your weekly inactive lounge fee, your lounge will automatically be removed. You can delete your lounge any time.
Click on the "My" drop down menu on the gray headerbar and select "lounges" on the top left hand side of your page. Look for the "browse lounges" link. You can browse by name, number of members, and date created.
A private lounge is invite only. This means that you must be invited by the owner (creator) of the lounge to be a member. We do not allow any type of pay for cam services. This includes donations or anything that is soliciting publicly or privately on the site. Your account will be removed immediately. GO AWAY STUPID WEB CAMMERS!
Once you have subscribed to a lounge and no longer wish to be a member, you can unsubscribe by simply going back into that lounge. An "unsubscribe from this lounge" link will have taken over the "subscribe to this lounge" link. Click on that, and it will delete that lounge from your list of lounges. (If it does not reset right away, clear your cache and cookies.)
Please check out our emoticons page to see a list of available emoticons and the text combinations to generate them.
Sure! If you don't agree with the sense of style other members have, you can go to your profile settings page and set Ignore Profile Skins to Yes. With this setting enabled, all member pages will be rendered with the normal fubar style.
Sure! If you don't want to see other members music / video content that's embedded on their profiles or comment areas, go to your profile settings page and set Filter Embedded Content to the level you'd like.
Note: Turn this on if you're annoyed by profiles that load slowly or crash your computer-- that's normally caused by someone with 10 or 50 videos embedded on their page... yikes!
HMTL coding can be used within your About Me, Music, Interests and Comments. CSS (cascading style sheets) coding is applied to our skins/ layouts for your Lounges and profile skin layouts. You can NOT use HTML on your Home Page or Lounge "Skins". Flash coding is restricted from most areas of the site. If it doesn't work, it is probably blocked.
fubar premade skins can be found at this link: fubar Premade Skins - from TweakYourPage.com. If you are familiar with CSS coding, you are welcome to code a skin for yourself, but fubar will not do this for you nor will fubar aid you in this process. There are a lot of very helpful members and Bouncer staff that are willing to help you create yours if you stop by the fubar Support Lounge and request some assistance.
From your Home Page, click the "edit my skins" below your avatar in the middle of the page. The "Edit my skins" feature allows members to easily edit their page layout or browse other members’ designs to rip their skins. You can activate multiple skins and one will be selected at random each time someone checks your profile.
fubar uses CSS coding for skins. Most HTML will NOT work for skins. FuBar does allow for some html coding to be placed in the various sections for skins and/or tag additions.
Please refer to this link for examples of CSS coded skins: fubar Premade Skins - from TweakYourPage.com. You can also create your OWN original skin by dropping your codes in to the CREATE A SKIN page within your MY SKINS link.
If you are browsing around fubar and you see a skin you like, you can "rip" the skin by scrolling down to the bottom of the page and clicking on the "rip this skin" link. In order to activate, you must click on the "Edit my skins" link from your fubar homepage.
Go back into your TRACKZ page and select the "delete" link next to the track you wish to delete and follow the prompts.
Ripping an album skin is as easy as ripping a profile skin. Click into your photo gallery by using the "my" drop down menu. Click on the link that says "Skin Albums" under Photo Albums header on the left. You will be able to browse other users skins and rip any skin you like. You can also customize your own album skins by using the customization link. If you have more questions, please stop by the fubar Support Lounge.

Packs are groups of members on the site associated by their verified email address. For example, people who verify an official US Marine Corps. email address (ie: mhedlund@usmc.mil) are added to the US Marine Corps. pack. Students at Virginia Tech who verify their school email address (ie: mhedlund@vt.edu) are added to the Virginia Tech pack.
Members of a pack have their Pack Icon displayed on their tooltip (the little box of data that pops up when you mouse over someones photo), fubar home page, and on their profile. Pack members also receive extra functionality to browse, communicate, notify, and keep in contact with all other members of their pack.
Packs are currently limited to US Military branches and worldwide educational institutions only. If you've verified your email address, meet the above criteria, and don't find yourself associated with a Pack (there will be an icon for your Pack on your homepage), please email support@fubar.com and submit your request for a new Pack.
Note: the more members you have ready to join your pack when you submit it, the quicker we'll add it. :-)

You'll both get points whether you click "Like" or "Next", so start voting and make people's day!
The top 25 people who are liked the most get their names highlighted in green. Don't try and game the system or it will game you.
As you earn Points, you will also earn fuBucks. Points and fuBucks are basically the same, except that you can spend your fuBucks, which will make the amount decrease as you spend. Points will always accumulate and never decrease. You can use these fuBucks to buy virtual gifts for anyone on fubar! Use them to either flirt, cheer someone up, or just for fun! You will find the fubar Gift Shop link on a member's profile page in the top left section. fuBucks can also be used to buy users in fuOwned and to purchase extra guesses in the Admirer game!
fuPal is a fubar feature that allows users to transfer their fuBucks or bling credits to other users. You may do this because one of your friends is broke and needs to pay their lounge fee, or because you want to help them bid for spotlight! Why you transfer them is up to you. Keep in mind however, that you will be charged a transaction fee of 20% of the amount you transfer. For example, if you transfer 100 fuBucks to someone, your account will be charged a total of 120 fuBucks. Keep this in mind when transferring large amounts. If you do not have a salute, the transaction fee is 50%
fuPal also allows you to send bling credits to a friend. You will be charged a transaction fee of 35% of the transfer amount. For example, if you transfer 100 credits to someone, your account will be charged a total of 135 credits.
You can access fuPal by going into the fubar Gift Shop and selecting the fuPal option at the top or buy going to the page of the user you want to give funds to and clicking on the fupal logo under their photo.
The Gift Shop is where you can give FREE virtual drinks, beers, gifts and other items for your friends on fubar. To give a gift, you only need to earn fubucks, which you do just by using the site!
A GREAT ice-breaker! A virtual gift can be "purchased" with fuBucks from the fubar Gift Shop. There are a variety of items to choose from and gifts range in price from 50 to over 1,000,000 fuBucks. When you browse someone's profile you will see a link at the top left of their page that says, "GIVE A GIFT!". Click on that link and you will be able to buy that person a virtual gift. You can also click on the “Gifts†link on the top of your page and choose friends to give gifts to, or you can click on the "give gift" link in the tooltip when you hover over their thumbnail.
fubar rewards you by giving bonuses for when your friends join and use fubar - 5,000 fuBucks and points per friend! Here's how it works:
We cannot track your fuBucks, so it is up for you to track your own point rewards as they come to you. If you do not see your referral on your join page, then it's likely that they did not join successfully under your invite, and their user error will not send you credit. This could have happened because they signed up on the same computer as you sent them the link or email from, or they were previously a fubar member. You also will not receive the referral points/fuBucks if you are frozen at level 5 or level 10 due to level up requirements at the time they joined.
Bling are special gifts that you can give to other members by using your Credits. The Bling Shop is ever changing and includes gifts that are rare, gifts that can grant you Special Abilities and help youPower Up when trying to Level. and those that are specific to a certain season. Be sure to check the Bling Shop often to see the latest editions! For every Credit spent on Bling, you and the receiver will get 2,500 pts.
Credits can be purchased on your homepage by clicking the "Buy More" link on the gold module or in the Bling Shop. Credits are used to buy Bling gifts, Power Ups, Special Ability Bling, Blasts, Happy Hours, VIP, Tickers and more.
The daily rank leaderboard module helps you keep track of your daily fubar ranking progress. The big green or red number and up or down arrow tells you how many spots you moved up or down the fubar leaderboard in the last 24 hours. This rank is determined by the total amount of points you accumulated in the last 24 hours and will change daily depending on your activity on fubar. The best way to move up in daily rank is to use the site and interact with other members.
The Daily Rank leaderboard graph is a new addition to the fubar daily rank. The graph allows you to see your progress plotted on a graph as well as compare your fubar daily rank graph with other members.

The higher your buzz is when you receive points, the more bonus points you receive! You cannot buy yourself drinks. Remember, the point here is to interact with others! **Hint:One of the drink options (with the 100% bar) from the fuBling Shop will get *anyone* sh*t faced!
Your buzz will start decreasing 24 hours after you received your first drink, but will continue to go up the more drinks you receive daily.

fubar allows members to "rip" content from one another. It is always best to ask a member before you take a photo, skin or one of their trackz. Each "ripped" item will show the path of its originator. fubar will NOT get involved in "ripped†photo disputes. If you do not wish to have your photos "ripped", do not upload them to your gallery.
A photo is deemed NSFW if it is:
- Explicitly sexual in nature (suggestive) and includes real photos, cartoon drawings, and all styles of animations
- Overtly tasteless
- Slandering to any person or ethnicity
- Contains exposed body parts and no face (chest, etc. for both men and women)
In addition to the above criteria, if a photo is a primary photo, it will be flagged as NSFW if it also contains a suggestive body part without the member's face in the photo. If you have a borderline photo that is not considered NSFW and it was marked as such, there's a chance someone who has ripped that photo is using it as a Primary Photo. Remember: The Bouncers will be MORE STRICT with those used as Primary Photos.
Accounts will be terminated for abusing the adult content policy. This includes your Home page, Bulletins, Comments, MUMMs, Stash, Blasts, Spotlight, and Blogs.
fubar will not dispute photos that they have marked NSFW as it is at their own discretion.

Please make sure to not have mystery man hands that are obviously superimposed. Hold the salute like a normal person and do not cut off your arms, hands, etc. If you are going to write on yourself, make sure to have a few legit paper salutes first.
If you would like to see why we are strict about this, stop by my Hall of Shame and see the fake salute attempts. Don't do this please. You will be exposed, and you will not be happy when your salute is removed.
The following items will be accepted as a complimentary addition to your salute:
You wearing a fubar t-shirt or you in front of your fubar homepage (not your profile page or any other fubar page) that is CLEARLY visible.
- Photoshopped or any "type" print will NOT be accepted.
- Grainy and barely legible salutes will NOT be accepted.
- Salutes placed in a PRIVATE album will NOT be accepted.
- Salutes where part of your face can not be seen will not be accepted
- Black and White photos will NOT be accepted
Examples of acceptable salutes:
Upload your salute to your main gallery just like you would any other photo. Click on the "Submit as a salute!" link below the photo. Once you click to submit, a verification page will come up to confirm your entry. Confirm the photo(s) that you want to be verified and wait. Once your salute(s) is verified by our staff, it will appear at the top of your gallery page.
All Salutes are approved by the fubar Bouncers. Using fake or bogus photos will result in your account being removed. NSFW, privately marked, or exposed photos are NOT acceptable. We will reject any salute that looks suspect or is questionable. Please do not take this personally.
If your Salute is rejected, please simply submit a new salute following the above guidelines. If you see a salute that looks FAKE, please report to a bouncer (orange highlighted name) or fubar Support. We will audit any salute that is deemed FAKE and take appropriate action immediately. We are a community regulated site and appreciate your feedback.
If your salute is deleted you will be asked to re-submit a new salute. If you submit multiple FAKE salutes, your account will be removed. Please do not take it personally if your salute was rejected or deleted, our goal is to ensure that verified members are legitimate people.
Avatars and main photos must be pg rated and not contain the following:
* no bare chests. (men, or women... duh)
* no lingerie, bras, bathing suits or underwarez.
* nothing deemed sexually suggestive, at our discretion.
Any primary photos which we find in violation of the policy will be marked as NSFW (even if they wouldn't normally have been marked NSFW had they NOT been a primary photo). Repeated offenses will result in suspension and/or removal of your account (the same as if you break other rules on the site, repeatedly).
The Stash is where you can store all the cool stuff you find on the Internet: videos, pics, jokes, surveys, trackz, or whatever! Your Stash will be shown on your profile so that you can share this stuff with the entire fubar community. You have a limit of 2,000 items allotted to you to stash, so choose carefully. There are a lot of great things out there to store!
NSFW contents are not permitted in your Stash. If found, your stash and entire fubar account can and will be deleted without notice.
Finding stuff for your Stash is completely up to you. There are hundreds of videos, jokes, news, surveys and music sites out there to choose from. Once you find the material you want to add, copy the link to the webpage or the code that will allow you to embed the material. Next click on the "My Stash" tab at the center of your homepage and paste the link into the "content" field. Be sure to name and categorize your material accordingly. Click on the "Stash It" button and your content will be added to your stash. The most recent items you stashed will be displayed on your profile page for everyone to see.
If you post content that is offensive, adult or NSFW (Not Safe For Work), your account will be deleted.

You can learn to make a salute here. A salute holds a lot of weight in the fubar comunity, and it is common for a band or a swimsuit model with a salute to beat out one without a salute. fubar is a friendly community and many users have showed their support for a band or swimsuit model through personal salutes as well.
The swimsuit contest is currently closed to any new applicants at this point in time. In the future there will be more contests like this and more information on how to join them will be uploaded when the time comes.
You can fill out an application for the battle of the bands here. The band profiles are artifically made a higher level than a regular fubar profile, so we need you to sign up with an email address that isn't connected to your primary fubar account.
Most people came to fubar because we are different than any place on the internet. Since day one we pride ourselves on REAL people behind the profiles. Let's face it, any old man or lady can pretend to be a young hottie and that is kind of gross. The salute is your drivers license on fubar. It proves you are real. It also humanizes your band.
The salute is not very hard to do. This is the official How to make a salute link www.fubar.com/bible.php#make_salute.
HGK was the first band to listen to me about salutes. They made this salute and did a video broadcast and a member liked them so much she tattooed their band name on her arm.
Mr And Mrs Sinfully Shadow
@ fubar
She tatted their band name on her arm. Now thats love!
This is an example of how salutes can work towards your advantage.
Hard 2 Handle Im Not Mean Im Real
@ fubar
Hard2Handle is our top legend on the site. This means she has the most fans. She has been hottest user before and held that title for over a year.
She made this salute for The Public Trust
This salute ended up in this video clip.
What are you waiting for? Make a salute and get on it! Where can you go on the internet and have people salute you like this?
It may seem weird at first, but once you do it, you will see that salutes = real people = respect!
