Today, there was a huge tropical rainstorm...
Riding down the streets on my bike was a challenge...
The water on the main rode were up to my knees and above!
I was soaked to the bone when i got home and it turned out my yard was flooded too!
By the gate was flooded enough to almost drowned our pet rabbit, Storm!

I loved all of your articles! They are very well written, and very informative. My favorite was probably your latest one, The War That Killed My People. As for my writing career, I've written a LOT of articles. Check some of them out, and please comment and enjoy! :)

It's a good book. you should read it.
marian winslow's picture
marian winslow May 8, 2012 - 5:30pm
yes, it is but it does not have anything to do with Kate, Reynie, Sticky, and Constance. It is about Mr. benedict when he was a kid.

U Travel would be a place for people to tell travel stories and talk about dream vacations. It would be just like U Chat, except travel oriented.

adella May 8, 2012 - 4:46pm
That would be really cool!

Jennah - We dont understand the question. Let us know if you are seeing an issue.

Deepa Gopal May 4, 2012 - 12:16pm

Well, we dont recomend changing user name, because it is likely that the system is getting confused. We will look into this issue, and it might take us a while to fix.

Editor my sister fayzeh asked you the question. So when you fix it your comments will stay on your profile?

What state are you going to? Are you looking forward to the trip?

Maryd: If your comment is rejected, you lose the points that you are given immediately when you make that comment. If you see points dropping more than they should, do let us know. We had an issue recently that we fixed.

We don't reject comments unless they are -

  • Not appropriate for our readers or use inappropriate language
  • A personal or disrespectful comment in response to another child. We want everyone to feel comfortable expressing their opinons on Youngzine.
  • If we get too many comments such as "wow", "cool", "???" from the same child. Our points system is really to encourage reading and understanding of the article. We want the comments to be fun reading too, and having a discussion with others your age.
Kiwi_BJ's picture
Kiwi_BJ May 3, 2012 - 4:06pm

Do you get more points for longer comments, or does every comment give you the same amount of points?

Deepa Gopal's picture
Deepa Gopal May 4, 2012 - 12:08pm

Only one comment per article is awarded points and length does not matter. Points are to encourage reading, but having a discussion with others, asking questions that the articles triggered in your minds etc.. that is the real purpose of Youngzine, we hope :)

Okay I just looked it up. Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious was NOT on the list of longest 5 words BUT, the longest in that list was 30 letters. Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious is 34. Maybe the words you saw were MADE UP. NOT REAL.

greensalmon May 3, 2012 - 7:37am

Ok never mind. I'm not fighting with you. This is not worth it.
