This time we will have an interview with the well known Aries' philanthropist Ronald-D. He just finished his Drop Party and has accepted our interview:

We' d like to thank you for accept this interview
haha no problem

Which country are you from?
Pittsburgh Pennsylvania (USA)

How old are you?
im 19 years old

Are you a student or an office worker?
well im neither, im employed by the united states army

How long have you played Wonderland Online? How do you know this game?
well ive been playing wonderland online since 2008, of May.
I found out about this game, while i was browseing the internet, on a website called tokyopop

How do you feel about Wonderland Online? Does it change your real life? Please give an example.
Well i personally like Wonderland Online, due to its friendly users, and community. I also like how the ingame mechanics are designed, yes somewhat childish but i like how you can build a ingame house, and work on it, slowly piece by piece, gathering materials, and resources from within the game itself.
In the real world, yes, it changes my life a small bit, it allows me to come online and have a good conversation, and a couple of laughs, after im done with training (combat exercises) down at Fort Gordon, Georgia
I like how this games style is, seeing as im a anime fan, the graphics are pretty much like some of the animes I've watched.

Thank you.
your welcome

Whats your character level now ? What about the character status?
well my characters level is currently 37, and my user status are as follows: Str 26, Con 26, Int 21, Wis 21, Agi 22. but to be honest, im not really concerned about leveling up seeing as i just like talking to the users in game

What kind of ingame suit would you like to wear?
i like wearing clothing that makes me look like a ninja, or someone very skilled in the ways of close quarters combat. Sorta like a ninja, or army Soldier

How many pets do you have in our game? Which one do you like most?
well i have a full inventory full of pets in both storage, and on me. I like the Elin pet, seeing as she is a weapon, or a biocreated organism, what can i say, i like the fact that she packs some heat with that plasma gun of hers

At what level did you get elin and elin gun? Did you ask your guild members for help?
actually at level 30 i got elin and when my pet elin got to level 30 i did get help from my guild members. Actually it was the user Dante. Who helped me out, he was a good friend since i joined the game of wonderland online. Had it not been for him i dont think i woulda adapted to playing the game to well

How much do you usually spend on our Item mall each month? How do you feel like the item mall items?
Personally i spend around $100-$500 a month on the item mall, it all depends on if im selling items, or ingeneral just wanna grab some items for drop partys.
I like the item mall items, the loud speaker being my number one favorite seeing as i like to talk with alot of people, due to the friendly user basis.

Do you have any suggestion for our VIP customer service?
to be honest, this is the first time ive seen such a useful helpline, or customer service line, not using emails, and or ingame forums helps alot
because it helps users like me, talk to you, and get almost near immediate responces, with little to no time, and it helps break that language barrier alot of users have with talking to tech support threw common mail or website forums
this helps users like myself resolve issues faster, and also helps put our minds at ease, knowing were actually able to talk to someone, with out having a one sided convesration (usually the common thought when we send out emails asking for help, or talkin to a system operator, or game moderator or technical staff)
be honest your so friendly i just like asking you questions, and feel like i can ask you quesitons about anything in game with out worry knowing you will do your best to answer my question

Thank you very much. What elements (could be anything) do you expect WL team to add to Wonderland Online in the future?
well seeing as im a technical person i favor the house improvements alot, and loved the ingame add in of the maid.
i favor alot of techincal things especially building, and design wise, so more improvements to the ingame building features would be cool.

In which aspects do you think we can improve our events?
well event wise, theres not alot of game moderators who help promote such events i dont know if your the only one but in all honesty i think usually a game moderator one for each server, should try to host a event, the same one once a month
its something that useta be done on games like Trickster Online, where they have question airs, about common ingame knowledge, or just the general about their games and or things about their company (which users could find out by visiting the companys site, aka, IGG< what dose IGG stand for)
or a drop party (where or much wanted items are dropped for a while, by a game moderator or {GM}) because this gives everyone something to look for
i mean, me personally i found in all games i play drop partys are the most favored, lol thats why i host them, their fun to watch people scramble plus it promotes the game, as well as a friendly competition against everyone

Drop Party

When did you start to hold the drop party event? what makes you think of holding this kind of event?
I usually try to at least hold a drop party event (where i drop items of value to players or ingeneral anything that players are interested in.) What it takes to make me hold this kind of event is to see usually people helping one another out, or just having a good laugh watching people scramble for items. I find that pretty funny so i try to at least host one drop party event every month. Ranging from item mall items, to just ingame gold.

Where do you often hold this event ? Aries 3 ?
I usually use to hold this event in Aries 5 server, but now i try to switch it up a bit, on servers i notice that dont have alot of users online on that server, so others who want to participate will beable to get on a server with the least amount of lag due to not as much users are on a server.

Will you continue to hold this event in the future?
Well ill try to hold an event as much as i can. To be honest, i was hoping the ingame Moderators, or staff would hold such events, for users, seeing as they can generate points at will, as well as create the items for the party with out using real world money. It would be cool if a GM (Game Moderator) Hosts this party because then more users would notice the GMs being more active in the events
and not just think its some kinda automated script or bot, doing all of these events
It helps keep the users active and promotes good fun for everyone in the game of Wonderland Online

How do you usually do with the items bought from item mall?
Well to be honest, i usually just give out items bought from the item mall, to people for free, or try to host an event, because i like seeing everyone active, and promoting a good user basis. Usually someones common act of kindness, makes me send them a item mall item, like the ever so popular Carnie tokens, or a loud speaker, so they can shout and voice out their opinion on all servers world chat

How do the player feel like the drop event ?Especially when the player dont get anything from the event ,as you know there are so many player join the event.
Well there are alot of players who look forward to the drop party event. Alot hope to gain something from it, ranging from that item they want from the item mall to getting a little richer from the gold they gain if at all any.
There are players who dont get things, but this happens quite often. I mean, this event is held in hopes people will attempt to scramble and try to have a little friendly competition with grabing items they would like to have.
I know there are alot of players who join, but the whole point of joining, is so you can have that chance, that excitement of hopping on an item you could never get, like for instance, someone couldnt buy items from an item mall
and are hoping to get ahold of some piece of gear or armor, like Golden Ears. well if they got it, they would be filled with joy, and ever so happy
while if they didnt get it they might get mad for a few moments and then continue to press forward, in hopes of getting something better or anything at all

Whats the most nice item mall items did you drop out?
you mean by nice, the most popular amongst the ingame crowd well thats a bit of a hard one, seeing as everyone has their preferences in ingame item value, or popularity with the items they obtain. Me personally i think Golden Ears Box, as well as the Angel Wings/Dark Evil Wing Box, are the most popular. So i try to if i can drop them most often, and then second is carnie tokens, seeing as people in the wonderland world, are always buying carnie tokens, why not drop them so they can have that chance to make a profit or use the ingame slot machines for prizes. Simple because it promotes the game as well as helps out players

How much money did you give out in total?
well this time it was 1.1million ingame gold, around 1,000 item mall points value just for the carnie tokens.There was a total of 150 carnie tokens droped, 2 golden ear box's dropped. yes it might seem small, but it was just a quick drop party i hosted, not the usual where i drop mass quantitys of these items

Real life

Thank you . Lets talk something about your real life,is that oK?
sure shoot

How many family members do you have?
well i have 3 family members, my brother, my father and mother
now if were gonna go threw my whole family tree, well thats over 50 some familys, and well i cant really even begin to start how many people are in my family

LOL
lol yeah i halfta agree, it is funny. To much family D: i consider over kill. There are still parts of the family i dont know

Whats your hobby?
well my hobby is well, playing games. That and working on electronic systems (computers, reparing machinery, of any sort, pretty much Technical things ingeneral)

How do you feel like your job?
umm. well to be honest, i love my job. The army lifes the life for me, and to say its not, is a lie times 3. I love how the army trains us Soldiers. They teach us so many life lessons and values,examples like LDRSHIP or Loyalty, Duty, Respect, Selfless Service, Honor, Integrity, Personal Courage. Something one value everyone has

When did you take part in the army ? Right after you finished your school?
yeah i joined the army right after i got out of school. The reasoning simple, because i wanted to be a better person, i thought it would be a fun way to explore and learn more about this world and its people
If you ask me, ive learned so many life lessons in the army its hard to believe but i believe ill be a great person when i get out of the service in 2016. I joined the army in 2008 of May. a few days before i learned about the game Wonderland online.
thanks to the army, i think completely different, and am a better person because of it. It teachs you so much, like how to work as a team, to leave no fallen comrad behind, and to respect everyone who is anyone
Be all you can be in the army, catchy huh well thats what i came to think after i learned so much from the army

Thanks a lot for your time.
no problem xD im glad i could be of assistance/help, and also am glad you were able to help me out. D: Im glad we even had this conversation/interview, xD brings me much joy to talk on a regular level like this with anyone
