Timewaster Badge

Timewaster Badge helps you notice fans who have been reported by the FBuddy community for wasting creator time. When a fan reaches your report threshold, FBuddy shows a red Timewaster badge near that fan so you can review the context before replying.

Where to Find It

The badge appears anywhere FBuddy shows DM fan badges, including conversations, Online Users, Unanswered Messages, Top Spenders, profile rows, and account cards.

You can also review a fan's Timewaster details from their FBuddy profile:

Open the fan's profile in FBuddy.
Find Community Reports.
Check Timewaster Status and Timewaster Reports.
Click Show Reports to review public community report entries for that fan.

If the report details or buttons are unavailable, sign in to FBuddy and reopen the fan profile.

What the Badge Means

Timewaster: The fan has reached your Reports needed threshold, or you personally reported the fan.
Timewaster Status: Active: The badge is currently visible for that fan.
Timewaster Status: Inactive: The fan does not currently meet your active badge conditions.
Timewaster Reports: Shows the current report count compared with your threshold, such as 2/3 report(s).

Hover the badge to see the Timewaster report count and whether you reported that fan.

Reporting a Timewaster

Use reports only for clear, helpful context that other creators can understand.

Open the fan's profile in FBuddy.
Find Community Reports.
Click Report Timewaster.
Enter a reason.
Click Submit Report.

Your report is public to FBuddy users. Include useful context and proof when possible, such as links to externally hosted screenshots or media. Be careful with any external proof links because other users may open them, and reports without proof may be removed.

If you already reported the fan, the button changes to Undo Report. Click it if you want to remove your report.

Correcting an Incorrect Badge

If a Timewaster badge looks inaccurate or unfair, submit an inaccuracy report from the same Community Reports card.

Open the fan's profile in FBuddy.
Find Community Reports.
Click Report Inaccuracy.
Explain why the tag is inaccurate.
Click Submit Inaccuracy.

Three inaccuracy reports within 30 days remove the badge for everyone. If you already submitted one, the button changes to Undo Inaccuracy.

Changing Badge Visibility

Timewaster Badge is on by default. Use Tweaks when you want to hide the badge or change how many reports are needed before it appears.

Click the FBuddy icon on Fansly.
Click Tweaks.
Select FBuddy Features.
Find Timewaster Badge.
Turn the switch on or off, or change Reports needed.
Refresh Fansly so the change can take effect.

Reports needed can be set from 1 to 100. The default is 3 reports.

Important Notes

You must be signed in to view report details, submit reports, submit inaccuracy reports, or undo your own entries.
Report and inaccuracy reasons are required and can be up to 2048 characters.
One FBuddy account can have one Timewaster report and one Timewaster inaccuracy report per fan at a time.
Turning off Timewaster Badge hides the badge only. The Community Reports panel still works for viewing, reporting, and inaccuracy feedback.

Troubleshooting

The badge is missing: Open FBuddy icon > Tweaks > FBuddy Features > Timewaster Badge, make sure the switch is on, confirm Reports needed, then refresh Fansly.
The profile says Timewaster Status: Inactive: The fan does not currently meet your active badge conditions. This can happen when the report count is below your threshold or after a report is removed.
You cannot submit a report: Sign in to FBuddy, enter a reason, and try again.
Counts look stale: Open Show Reports and click Refresh.
