Influential FFS Player

Posted in Community by davidserious on December 21, 2009

In this post we highlight Monica Veleber, an influential FFS player. Monica is a talented member of our FFS community and kindly shares advice on game play and insights into her real life world.

Monica lives in the “Sunshine State “ of Florida and appropriately speaks English and Spanish.

When asked how she first started playing FFS Monica answered:

“Actually, someone had me date Prince Charles and I wanted to find out what FFS was all about and glad I did =)”

We asked Monica to share her hobbies with us and she said:

“Now I’m an FFS addict but still I have many hobbies out side FFS, one of the most important to me is giving back to society, especially to children in the community. I was former chairman of a kids club which activities included to help encourage and motivate 9-to-12 year-old girls to make the most of their lives by seeking to reinforce and sustain positive values among them by targeting healthy messages to the unique needs, interests, and challenges of girls. My Kids Club was also a member of The Giving Tree, the tree has hundreds of leaves on it. Each leaf has the name of a young child, teen or a senior citizen in need.

In addition I enjoy all kinds of music, multitasking ;) sports events, volunteering in my community to help children, as well as help painting an adults community center for example. I also enjoy all water-related activities, especially boating, water skiing and swimming with dolphins; as well as studying about them, you could say I am a dolphin aficionado.”

One piece of information we were keen to have Monica share was her tips for other FFS players. Here’s her game advice:

“Please see my about me for general tips http://apps.facebook.com/friendsforsale/users/show/47937687 In addition, do your best in adding some nice about you and post a hello or nice day instead of asking people to buy you. Friends usually buy friends in addition to bids or trading. Also be active in the FFS forums, For more experienced players, if you take the time to help few new players they might wish list you too.
FFS Discussion Board http://www.facebook.com/board.php?uid=7019261521 is great because you can post your link to get bought or buy pets that want to get bought. You can make money going to pp forum and helping other players raise their pets. It’s also a good way to get to know others players in the game if you want to find reset partners,etc.
The Serious Business community forums are a great place to post questions and get answers from FFS Helpers.http://community.seriousbusiness.com/seriousbusiness/products/seriousbusiness_friends_for_sale_facebook

Monica said the last song played on her iPod was:

“Mariah Carey – All I Want For Christmas Is You (Johnny Depp)http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LsHDdawSjLU&feature=related

Isn’t that a great song for the holidays?

Peace out

  25. Nadav Katz said, on December 23, 2009 at 7:06 pm

    Congrats Monica on this amazing article!

    you well deserve it! I have known you for a while in FFS and you have always been useful, friendly, posting the best ever posts and helpful towards the players.

    Besides FFS, I am glad to have you as a friend, you have a heart of gold and you always do good and try to help whenever you can without asking for anything in return.

    I did learn quite few things about you for from the article, things I did not know who make me appreciate you as a person even more! you helping kids in the community – that’s a beautiful thing to do and show your good nature and high values.

    You are a big asset for FFS and many can learn from you.

    Keep being Awesome hon, xxx

    • Monica Veleber said, on December 25, 2009 at 5:18 pm

      Thank You Nadav,

      As a former “pet ” of yours I could say that you are awesome too.

      Always enjoyed helping children and doing activities with them.

      as you know I was a Teacher prior to joining The IT Industry.

      I believe a mix of both helped to develop my outstanding multitasking skills ;)

      I still remember the multitasking post you posted on my FFS wall :D

      Thank You for your friendship Nadav XO

      Shabbat Shalom!

      Best New Years Wishes!

  33. Liza said, on December 25, 2009 at 10:51 am

    WOOOOOOW .. CONGRATS Monica..and as one of your Ex-Pets I can just say that I experienced quite lots of your CARE first hand ( had some nasty Owner b4 she saved me from) and was sad when I had to move on to make my way in the game. What I appreciated most – that over all the time we never lost contact. Although we were not connected as FB Friends until recently – which tells a lot of how you looked after people in a game.
    Funny note on the side.. we did not meet on FFS but on a similar Appl… after owning me there ( was last year around Hanukkah ) you just told me to go and meet you also on FFS — as you were more into FFS playing.
    SOOO and that tells how good you are also in recruiting players ;)
    Am glad to have met you Monica….and be now amongst your Friends …HUGSSS <3<3

  34. Monica Veleber said, on December 25, 2009 at 7:50 pm

    Thank You Liza,

    Great memory dear ex “pet”. I happen to have one of the best memories ;)

    Yes, I remember you posted a few times “Please help me!” and I “bought” you a few times :D

    When we 1st connected was on another application and my dear ex “pet” dear friend Desma and me raised you :)

    Sure, I tell most people fb wall is not my main wall. FFS is :D

    Welcome to my Network Liza. Missed talking to you and miss you on my wall.

    You always made/make me laugh and that is one of the things I like most :D

    Wish You an amazing New Year!
