Featured User: Blading Kid
We’re happy to introduce our next Featured User: Blading Kid—a community member who has managed to get to Level 6 in a relatively short amount of time by answering questions primarily in the Friends section. Blading Kid has racked up a total of 1,550 answers so far, honing in on unanswered questions from people who are looking for advice and support from their peers. From Blading Kid’s own words:
So why am I answering questions in the Family & Relations: Friends category? Well, I happen to have a profound interest in human relations and human nature. This interest propelled me to educate myself on such topics, primarily the non-family, non-dating part of human relations.
Yahoo! Answers offered me a chance to use what I’ve learned and apply it in real-life situations to help others (and also to show off my knowledge. ;-p). The convenient format and environment of Yahoo! Answers also attracted me. Besides, I find it enjoyable!
I typically always hang out in the Friends section, because that section happens to be the category that I’m best at. Also, the fact that most questions are from peers of my age or younger also attracted me.
When not on Yahoo! Answers, Blading Kid spends time on various hobbies. Currently, Blading Kid is passionate about inline skating:
As for my hobbies, I love chess! Or at least I used to…I began playing chess in late 2004 after being taught by a fellow chess player at my school’s chess club. Soon I was absorbed by the game and won the title of Kentucky State Seventh-Grade Chess Champion the following year. I continued to play chess in various small tournaments and won countless first-, second-, and third-place trophies and over $1,000 in cash prizes over the next four years. For example, I won the 2008 North Florida High School chess championship, and came in second in the East Florida H.S. Chess Championship and was invited to Invitational Superstars. But my interest in chess soon began to wane as I became more and more immersed in aggressive inline skating, which is my current hobby, and where my Yahoo! Answers nickname, “Blading Kid,” was born. I don’t know if I’ll ever go back to chess again. Time will tell.
Thanks for sharing your knowledge with us, Blading Kid!

You rock Kid, keep up the great work!
congrats new kid.
If I’m counting correctly, Blading Kid is almost still a “kid”. While I don’t doubt that he gives good advice — his meteoric rise confirms that — I am amazed that one so relatively young has been able to acquire so much worldly wisdom.
good job
Thanks for joining us. You sound well educated and it’s wonderful that you share your insights in the Friends section. Hope I come across you in Yahoo Answers.

thats a pretty bright kid.
hey dude, i`m into freestyle rolling too !! RESPECT and keep it up !
While it seems kinda weird someone so young could have so much ”knowledge”, its also good that you are trying to help others your age area with advice.. Its alot better then you going out and possibly getting into trouble too. I , myself, enjoy Yahoo Answers -and I’m in alot older age group. So Y.A. attracts all age groups….
sound like you’re a good person…gudluck
Hai , how are you?? I’m fine… What your favourite food??
I would like to see a few of his answers…Anyone got any link(s)??
Kudos to you for even braving that section.

Congratulations on being a Featured User! I am also in the Friends category and have a badge in Friends. I think it’s a great category to help people in. I’m taking some time off for now, but look forward to getting back to work helping people so I will see you soon!
Keep up the good work!
Should I not be offended by someone calling himself “satan lives” (spelled backwards) in the religion and spirituality Section of society and culture?
