Hi, Ninging! Thank you for saying yes to this BTK interview. To start, tell us a bit about your first day in SocioTown.
My first day… hmm that’s a tough one. It’s 3 years ago! As what I can remember, I also went through the stage where I click report option to chat LOL. And also it was a bit of annoying for me cause I always got stuck and I didn’t know yet that there’s this trick you can do to get back your mouse pointer lol.
Ohh, a trick! How do you do that? Care to share it to the new players we have?
Well, there are many ways but the best trick is to type “/sitdown” especially if the mouse pointer is hiding somewhere lol.
How did you find the game?
I was searching for an RPG and I saw SocioTown, then I gave it a try.
So no one referred you to the game. How about you, have you shared this game to your friends and family?
Yes, I did! My son, Eiser, used to play when he was younger. We played together a lot. It’s my way for our bonding time. My partner also had an account for “curiosity sake” lol and some of my online friends.
Any story behind your name?
NingNing is my real nickname, so I decided to use it here.
That’s a cute nickname you have! Do you get any feedbacks about your name?
NingNing is like a cat’s name here in my place, and I used to be called like that; like, something you say when calling a pet cat lol. No more other than that.
What part of the world do you come from?
I’m a proud Filipina from the beautiful islands of the Philippines.
Ooh, from the bright and sunny Philippines! How’s the weather there right now?
The weather dropped from 30 degrees Celsius to 20 because of Northeast Monsoon. I just hope it will last longer .
I hope the weather won’t get in the way of your real life and SocioTown duties. Speaking of which, what is it like to be a guide?
It’s like giving yourself an abstract painting. It’s not always a beautiful image you can see, but there’s always a bright side you can imagine.
That’s a nice way to put it! Let’s just say you’re not a guide right now. If ever there’s a guide application this year, would you still apply, even though you know how tough being a game guide can be?
Yes, will still do! I wanted to help the game, that’s the least that I can do to return the favor for giving me an experience I didn’t have with the other games I played.
We have aspiring game guides in the game. Can you share to them how you became a guide in SocioTown?
I just simply patiently waited for the right time, and then the application for the junior guides opened and I applied for it. I always visit the forum everyday to check if there’s any update.
Guides sure need a lot of patience, especially when dealing with naughty Socians. How do you deal with such players?
I have a lot of packed patience! I have to be calm and try to get the trust of the player, so if it’s just a minor issue then it can be easily handled.
Any notable memories you have while being a guide in the game?
I was able to prevent a trouble that was supposed to happen with both of my friends and they listened to me.
Good call! It’s better if the situation doesn’t get big. Anyway, what activity/feature do you like best in SocioTown?
I really love catching bugs! You can check my web profile for proof, hehe. It’s my stress buster in real life! lol
Woah! You do love bug catching! What is in bug catching that makes you relieve stress? Why do you love it so much?
Cause I have to concentrate when catching them! lol If not I’ll just be exhausted as ever, hehe. Well, it takes out my stress cause my mind is focused, that’s why I love catching those crunchy bugs.
In SocioTown, everyone eats burgers, fries, chicken, and fish, and drinks lemonade. Are you fond of these foods in real life? What’s your favorite food?
I am fond of those foods in real. Glad you didn’t include the bugs in the list. My favorite food is spaghetti and pasta dishes.
Sounds yum! Well, I didn’t include the bugs, but some people do eat bugs. If given a chance, would you try one in real life?
I really hate bugs! Wait, are bugs different from insects? It’s insects I hate hahaha! I don’t think I would even dare to try. I lose appetite easily lol.
Other than SocioTown, what do you do on your free time?
Bonding with my son, Eiser. Old players already met him; he is a teenager now. I have to catch up with what’s in so I won’t get left behind.
So he’s a bit grown up now, huh. Does he play SocioTown too?
He used to, but now he plays more action online games and I even tried the games he plays but it’s not my forte lol.
How is it like to have house duties as a mother and play an online social game at the same time? How do you manage your time?
I live with my partner’s family so I just do our (me, baby and hubby) laundry every other day. About cooking, well it’s not my talent, it’s my sister-in-law who is in charge of the food. I play online after finishing my chores and whenever the baby is sleeping. As of now, she’s really growing up fast! She wanted to stand up and walk a week before her 7th month, and now she’s almost 8 months and she’s super hyper active, so she really needs full attention. That’s why i’m hardly seen online nowadays.
Woah, juggling all those tasks and still finding time to relax and enjoy yourself in SocioTown makes you sound like a super mom! Lastly, do you have a final message to your fellow Socians?
Message?

Hmm… that’s a very tough one, lol. Okay, here it goes: Every player has a different personality, so just try your best to give respect to each other, play safe and try to avoid activities and conversation that could lead into trouble that could lead for banning you.
Great advice! Thanks for your time, Ningning.
