2. What do you like most about YN? The people. More specifically, some of the people. More specifically yet, a few of the people.

3. What do you dislike most about YN? Well, YN is a forum where everyone -- everyone -- is free to discuss their views on any topic. That's bound to have some negative and horribly annoying consequences. Not that I'd change it.

4. How long have you been a member? Since March 8, 2004. A little over 3 years now.

5. What is your favorite color? Green.

6. Are you for or against an orange background for YN? 100% for. Nostalgia is the ultimate motivator.

13. Are they covered in the causes area? I'm not really sure. I think I've read blurbs about each of them in the causes section at some point.

14. What grade are you in? 14th. College sophomore. Or rather, will be in August.

21. What do you think would attract new members? A friendlier atmosphere. But in all honesty, I think there's something to be said for scaring off certain potential new members.

22. If you could add one category to the boards, which one would it be? A "Society" board under the Society section, just because I've had a few thread ideas that had to do with society but were not specifically about government, business, discrimination, or pop culture.

23. What is the most annoying thing you've come across on this website(please refrain from mentioning other members)? The way the boards seem to go out for about 5 minutes intervals semi-frequently.

24. Why did you pick that YN screen name? I've been Aguagon since I was like 13. It's an intriguing sounding word that means absolutely nothing and makes for an easy-to-remember name that I go by everywhere online.

25. Would you get involved in any YN activity outside of the webiste? Certainly, though in all honesty, I'd probably have to be directly approached. Nothing like the human touch.
