About the PHB

phb blimp logo2

What’s popping? We’re the Poptropica Help Blog, or the PHB for short. This corner of the web was founded by Slanted Fish on July 26, 2008 and has been serving as a popular Poptropica fansite for over 15 years.

Here at the PHB, our goal is to enhance your Poptropica experience by sharing game tips, secrets, news, walkthroughs, tools, and more. You’ll also find a fun-loving community in the blog comments, our Discord chat server, DeviantArt fan art group, and more.

The PHB is proud to be an Official VIP fansite of Poptropica. Note that we are not Poptropica, but we are players (like you!) who are dedicated to serving this community. Welcome to the PHB, the top stop for all things Pop!

Meet the team

The PHB team is the crew behind the blog that brings you the latest Pop news and more. We are ordinary players, not Poptropica Creators (though we wish we were). We’re young adults and teens, and you can sometimes find us on the PHC, the PHB’s Discord chat server. Thanks for popping by! 🩵

Slanted Fish

Hey, I’m Slanted Fish, the editor-in-chief and creator of the Poptropica Help Blog (PHB). The name is inspired by my Chinese name, perpetually slanted posture, and love of fish.

  2. Um, excuse me, Slanted Fish, is Shaggy Tornado not an author anymore? Because Brave Tomato included him in her drawing of the PHB in the issue of the POPCORN which is awesome by the way in September. Just saying. Also late happy bday Samwow5! And I am going to submit something for the October edition of the Popcorn.

    Slanted Fish: Shaggy is not an author anymore — you can see who the current ones are on this page. 😛

  21. Joey, I need you to please let me comment on your blog and I will reason with you on the definition of spamming and trolling so you’ll understand better. I know what you want, you don’t want to be called a spammer or a troll, so let me give you some advice.

    I’m trying to deal with him, Fishy, sorry about this.

    3. Yes, I know that I use bad words in my Tumblr posts. But still, I want you to unblock me on Tumblr so we will speak privately regarding this issue, and if you don’t know how to unblock, you can let me comment on your blog and I’ll show you how to unblock.

  22. Excuse me? Those weren’t “bad words.” About that statement about what you made about “spamming” and “trolling” being bad words, it doesn’t work like that when it comes to the Internet. And if you do know the definition of spamming and trolling, you can unblock me on Tumblr and we can speak privately.

    1. Troll means: “make a deliberately offensive or provocative online post with the aim of upsetting someone or eliciting an angry response from them.” Spam means: “send the same message indiscriminately to (large numbers of recipients) on the Internet.”

      Reply

  25. Yes. That’s the definition I was going to say to you. And I bet it’s why people called you a troll in the PHC the other day in response to your rude behavior towards me; calling me a “troll”, telling people that I swore when I was going to say something to you, and other stuff which got you kicked and banned. If you want to be unbanned from the chat you need to contact the PHB and apologize sincerely, saying you will never do this again.

  30. I think it’s so cool you used that boat picture! It seriously made my day– no, made my WEEK! 😀
    I got the meme’s base from someone else so maybe could you say that it’s by QueenCookieMonster and Magic Kid? I don’t want to get yelled at later 😅
    Thank you!! :]
