I have a question- I think Mytona is Korean. At least the writing underneath the pictures looks that way to me (I watch Korean Dramas)--I have trouble telling one from the other and so my gifting to them is very inaccurate- They started when I first came on the game and then just appeard. Have any of them been on fandom? I realyy cannot tell who is gifting me and wonder if I should just delete them- what do you do?

I had mostly international friends when I first joined too. I say international because some of the writing looked Korean for some of the names and some of it looked Cyrillic and other names looked Arabic. Some of them were good friends and others were not. What I did to help me gift back appropriately was to pick a character of their name to give them nicknames for and this helped me identify my friends better. I have one friend I nicknamed chair because one of the characters in his or her name looks like a chair with a small dot sitting on it. I have another named butterfly because one of the letters looks like half of a butterfly. I have another friend "named" backward F for the same reason.

The above system helps a lot if you want to keep your friends. Now, on the other hand, I have 4 different friends who have very similar names that I keep getting confused and I highly suspect at least 2 of them should have gotten kicked off my list by now. I have a Nataly, Natakia, Natala, and Natalia lols.
