I was a leader when I worked. I was a Incident Commanding Officer for Medical,Fire & Hatz. Mat..I’m retired now. I was turned on to Webkinz by my little sister. I do the games everyday. Believe me others can beat me at all types of games. But being a Leader takes Courage<quick thinking and thinking about others and there well being sometimes before yourself. learing new things and practing for what could happen or not happen so you know what to do. You must always consider what's the best for everyone. I love Webkinz and hope for new challenges that you may offer.
I don’t get what your saying. Are you a kid or an adult? You said you were ‘retired ‘ but you also said that your ‘little sister showed you webkinz’ which is for kids. Anyway, LOL.
oh and thx for reading my comment
cngrats on getting your comment read mazzipypaziy :D
I like to be a leader of my house but then I am the youngest :( I also like being the leader on sports day but then I never get to :( but in games I am always the leader :)
Great mazziypaziy I’m pretty good at games too :)
Yeah, I almost always win when I play checkers with my family, yesterday I won 23 games of checkers, and didn’t lose any! After that, people just stopped trying. lol! xD
LOL prprprp! I’m really good at checkers too I when like every time I play same with other games like monopaly, life, air hocky, and uno! I’m really good at those games!
Hey, I challenge you to a game of checkers!! Next time we are both on, I’ll ask you! :) We’ll see who wins THEN! lol! And yes, I love monopoly! I have not played in a while, but the last three times that I can remember I won. And with air hockey-I haven’t played that since I was like, 7 years old, I don’t remember if I was good at it! lol! And for uno, I won the last 10 times I played it, I think I lost won game in between that and the other times I won. :) But the games were pretty far apart. I love games! And strategy games are my best games! Especially checkers! But I have won against my grandfather 10 times in chess! lol! But anyway, want to meet in the tournament arena playnowpuppy? I always love the challenge of playing against a really good player! :D
Great I’de love to! But I don’t know if I’m as good as u I’ve played u before and I think It’s safe to say u are a pro at Checkers :)
LOL, still, let’s play next time we are both on! :)
hay Gennelle, are you and Matt brother and sister? Why? Because you have the same last name. Webkinz. Thanks!
Hey! Well, as much as I’d love to be the third triplet (Matt and Mike Webkinz, who used to work here, are real-life twins), unfortunately we’re not related! ;)
OMG THAT IS SO COOL!!!!!
I don’t think Webkinz is there last name, just people who work for webkinz stuff have that at the end of their name so that people know they work for ganz. There is also someone who works for ganz with Amazing World at the end of his name, and Steve, Micheal, Mike, Matt, and Gennelle, and probably some others, all have Webkinz at the end of their name when they post here! I wonder what their real last name is?
yeah. your are propyl right. :)
I doubt they can post their real last name prprprp :)
Hi Genelle ! I was wondering if GANZ could make Webkinz greyhound! It would be soo cool ! I have a greyhound in real life named Ragu . I’m getting another one soon too! Do you like the idea of that ? Please respond , FrankBolton
That’s a really cute idea! I’ll be sure to pass it along to the Plush team. The eStore also made a virtual-only Pink Greyhound in 2011!
Gennelle, do u think kinz will ever make a Webkinz Brussells? It’s a do breed and I’ve wanted Kinz to make it forever!
Hey Gennelle you know wuts awesome and doesn’t make much sense at all?! I had a dream last night that I met a bunch of famous people and you where there, you were a famous chef! xD
Wow! I feel honored :) Too bad I can’t cook at all, even though I love food!!
Gennelle, this is off topic, but if you could answer for me, that would be great. My activation email for Amazing World was deleted a long time ago, but now I want Chat, but of course, I can’t get it. Is there any other way to get Chat, or can I get my activation email back? Thanks!
omg my commet was read im so happy
xD
Congratulations bepper098 :) They read my comment last Podkinz episode :D
Gennelle, i have a question. what does “your comment is awaiting moderation” mean? it always says that when i post something. does it mean that no one can see it? thanks
Because Webkinz Newz is a site for children, every comment on Webkinz Newz is individually approved by our team of moderators. When it says “your comment is awaiting moderation”, it simply means a moderator hasn’t reached it yet.
Children? But I’m a teen! lol xD
Same thing LOL
Teens ARE children! My sister and cousin think they are adults too, it was so funny once when they kept saying they were all grown up, and then they went and asked my parents if they could watch a certain movie, adn then they said no, you’re not old enough, maybe when you are adults! LOL!!! That was so funny! They just so happened to ask at a party, so everyone heard it!! LOL!!!!!! Yeah, teens are kids. You have to be like, 21 to be legally an adult I think.
Yup, “Teens” are just children.
Yeah I’m a kid and btw u arn’t considered an adult until u turn 18 :) my brother that is 19 is an adult but because he’s my brother It’s like hard to think of him as an adult!
I’m still a kid. And I am NOT in a hurry. :D
Yeah I’m not in a hurry to grow up!
I’m a teen but I still play on Webkinz because it is so fun.
i have a friend from school who is a great leader. she studies hard and is academically very strong. she is funny and very athletic. we are on the same team for one sport and she is a leader there to. she is extremely talented and can lead anything. she could lead a group project at school and express her opinion very clearly without being rude, and can keep people focused. everyone wants to be in her group. she is a great person and leader.
Sounds like an awesome friend! ;)
She sounds like a great leader to me :)
btw Gennelle I tried adding you to my friends list, but you haven’t replied yet. But my request is probably waiting for you right now, my user is Dudeett7, yours is Gennelle3 right?
Hi CountryKinz17, thanks for thinking of adding me as a friend! Unfortunately I had to cease accepting friend requests as it was getting a little overwhelming. See you in Webkinz World!
Cool so the person who Moderates my comment will read this? cool! Hi moderator(s)! Thanks for making sure all the comments that go on the site are good! :D
I meant to reply to the comment below me. oops :]
Oh ok I understand. Thanks for replying though, stay awesome! :D
Does anyone know what happened to Mike?
Mike is not longer with Ganz and has moved on to do new things. :)
Everyday I play as my webkinz golden retriever Topaz and go the Kinzville park to hang out and Kinzchat plus with my friends online! Whenever I go there it always feels like someone’s the leader for some reason? If there is we swap every time. I’ve felt like I was the leader a couple times before, but who I think would be an awesome and funny leader would be my best friend there, we call him Swag! I mean sure he can be goofy, and once in a while a little rude, but I’ve seen him lead a ton of groups before and he makes a great leader! :D
Between “go” and “the on the first sentence I forgot to type “to” sorry about that! xD
That’s cool CountryKinz17 :) Dear Podkinz, I feel like I’m leader when I do a lot of things :) Such as martial arts :) When I do martial arts I set an example for everyone such as having a good attiude, paying attention, working hard :) I also love to do Equestrian riding wich is horse riding :) I lead an example by leading the group and showing that I feel confident in what I do :) A lot of people look up to me so I have to show them a good example and a confident attitude like Daisy Doe :D
Playnowpuppy, I have a friend who does horseback riding too!:) I feel like I am in leader in my dance studio. The funny thing is, I’m not someone super special, I’m not part of the competition team (though I was invited), I can’t do my splits, I’m way to shy to talk to anyone, and I’ve only been there for 3 years. However, when I’m in class I think I show everyone that no matter what status in the studio you are when you give it your all, just try your best, and have fun anyone can be a leader!:)
Also, I am a leader at school because I am part of MS student council!:)
BTW both of my comments were supposed to be combined!:)
Cool horse riding is really fun I love it and u sound great at dance too!
Thanks!:) You sound good at martial arts and horseback riding!:)
Thanks again :)
for some reason i fell like theres a leader there to haha XD
