What is a Salute and why should I make one?
A salute is a candid photo of yourself holding a HANDWRITTEN sign
with your screen name, member ID, and fubar.com proving to the world
that you’re the real person behind your fubar profile. Members often
write their information on their hands, feet or other body parts. Please
do not submit NSFW salutes. You will NOT be able to move up past
level 10 without a verified salute.
SOME PEOPLE REQUIRE YOU TO GET A SALUTE EARLIER
IN ORDER TO INTERACT WITH THEM. I REQUIRE IT
IN ORDER FOR YOU TO DO "SHOUTS" AT ME.
If you do not submit a salute by level 10, your level will freeze along with
your points. This means, until you submit a salute to level up, you will not
accumulate points by participating in the day to day actions on fubar.
Submitting a salute is a level-up requirement. If you do not wish to submit a
salute, that is OK. But your level will freeze at level 10.
How do I make a Salute?
Take a photo of yourself with the following information clearly displayed in the photo.
1. Your SCREEN NAME, -- i.e. nickname.
2. Your Member ID number, (which is located in the end of your URL
address; www.fubar.com/user/22)
3. AND, the words: fubar
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.
How do I submit a Salute?
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 that you want to be verified and wait. Once your salute
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.
What do I do if my Salute is rejected?
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.
What do I do if my verified Salute is deleted?
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.
