  • Hahaha :D  Oh it's good to see Genki-baba again!

    For those who don't know "us" from the FaunaSphere forums, Genki-baba is my alter-ego - a cranky old woman who loves to talk about the old days and put the "young 'uns" in their place :p

    I got the information about alt-accounts yesterday to be sure this was OK, so Genki-baba will be getting no in-game help from me!  She's on her own... Take that old woman!  Ha!

    You probably won't be seeing much of Genki-baba (the "baba" ending to the name is Japanese, and is akin to calling someone an old hag!) in-game, but she'll probably sneak in here to the forums now and then - she just can't resist poking people with her cane now and then! haha

  • Lol!  I am so excited to hear from Genki-baba again but don't tell her that or i will never hear the end of it.  It feels like Old Times!

  • hehe, she won't hear it from me!

    I forgot to mention that Genki-baba will (of course) be specializing in distilling spirits and gardening/animal kinship - she's been swilling hootch and taking care of the farm her whole life.  If anyone ever sees her out near rocks, do offer to help - she's much too old to be doing that kind of heavy-duty work!

  • Nice to meet you, too!  Genki desu waaaa~ (I'm genki)

    "Genki" generally means upbeat, happy, optimistic, outgoing, etc, and "coll" is short for Colleen, so "Genkicoll" means Optimistic Girl.  That would mean that Genki-baba is an enthusiastic old hag! hahaha

    By the way, most of my Japanese I know from watching anime and dorama for 20+ years, so I had to use a translator to see what you said, Flowerry Pott :D The translator didn't know what hajimemashite means (nice to meet you), but luckily that's one of the things I know quite well~ hehe

  • Hugs to Genkicoll and Genki-baba! This old friend from FS has just added you both to the friend list. I am not in game much lately but when I do get in please look me up. I'll be wandering though as I don't have a house yet.

  • I think that "baba" means "old woman" or "hag" in several language.  I wonder how that term evolved?
