Beyond research, Rainflower has places to meet other researchers, share what you learn and have some fun. Most of them also earn raindrops.

Posting rules

  • Blog posts and memes must suit a school audience. Anything flagged is held back or hidden.
  • Two flags from other members hide a meme until a coordinator or admin reviews it.
  • Your own likes on your memes don't earn raindrops.
