What is a fanlisting?
A fanlisting is, as the name suggests, a list of fans for a certain subject, which online and open for anyone. All that is required is your (nick)name, a valid e-mail and your country.
Some people don't see the fun behind it, but that is exactly what fanlistings are, a hobby and fun. Seeing how many people share one's interests, creating sites and graphics and sometimes even sharing extras and information about the subject.
So if you are a fan, there is no reason not to join, your e-mail doesn't need to be displayed and won't be used for spamming you either*. Giving a valid e-mail just helps preventing fake members to join.
And when you really like a subject, why not show it? Especially with not so popular topics you make a lot of other fans happy to see that they are not alone.
The fanlistings are all listed at www.thefanlistings.org, the idea itself is from Janine.
* The script used to manage the fans who joined will automatically sent you an e-mail when you filled out the form correctly and then a second mail once I have added you to the actual list. The only other mail might be an note about a change of the url, so you can update your links and won't bump into a dead link.
