How Long Submissions Take to be Approved
It seems that when you submit something, it takes weeks, perhaps even months for it to be approved. Everything is always published on the website, is it not? Has anyone ever received a letter saying your article was not approved and will never will be? I don't think so. Why not just post everything up right away so we no longer have to wait and wait to see our work up online.

Does it really matter that much that you have to write a multi-paragraph reply about it? The whole thing was said and done. Personally, I think it was a lot better than if shehadwrittenitalllikethis.
Seriously? It's a website...it's basically a blog. The magazine doesn't take just anything, that's where the real competition happens.
And I think it's ironic that you're commenting about how Teen Ink needs to be stricter on how well things are written on one of the most poorly written articles on here.
good job on the righting
Then if you're in "Accelerated English" then shouldn't you not have trouble with your spelling? Really people, I'm sorry if I sound rude, but if you all are so great at English and spelling and what-not, shouldn't it be your responsibility to make sure your stories are written properly? Especially when Word document and Open Office Writer all have word check and will tell you if your sentences are not correct.
No one has an excuse and no one should blame Teen Ink for something that is their own responsibility not the websites. I think that was thisisme's point.
P.S And "purposely being sloppy"? Really? We can't even take the effort to write two sentences correctly? Come on people.
