YoVille Ninjas were Zynga members of staff. In the early stages of YoVille, they worked as both in game and forum moderators. Later on, ninjas no longer moderated in-game and only moderated the forums. Ninjas mainly exclusively dealt with community-based affairs and served as the bridge between players and developers, as the real developers very rarely ever held open communications with players, nor were they ever really seen. After YoVille was sold to Big Viking Games and rebranded to YoWorld, ninjas were no longer used as staff.

Trivia

  • Certain ninjas (Pink, Platinum, WhiteGold, and Blue) have had unique hairs designed for their avatars. Upon Pink and Platinum leaving the YoVille Staff Team, their hairs were released into the Hair Salon as a special tribute, where players could purchase the hairs for 18 YoCash each.
  • Pink Ninja had two unique hairs, her classic ponytail, and another exclusive hair. Both of these were released into the Salon.
  • Very little is known about Blue Ninja (Not to be confused with Electric Blue Ninja), because he left the YoVille Staff Team in March 2009, which was before the YoVille forums were around. His departure was never announced, very few know about their existence.
    • Blue Ninja has his own unique hair as well as exclusive Blue Male Eyebrows, never before seen on a player.
    • There had been speculation about the ninja on the YoVille Forums, with players trying to search the YoVille website for his profile, which was later found.
  • After Green Ninja left the YoVille Staff Team, he had still been around on the forums he moderated, using the name yoGreen. He occasionally posted on the forums.
  • There had been speculation in 2011 if WhiteGold Ninja was actually still part of the YoVille Staff Team. He was indeed still there, but he rarely posted on the YoVille Forums and did not appear in-game much.
  • When Turquoise Ninja left in October 2011, she revealed a hair that was specially designed for her avatar. On November 2nd, 2011, her hair became available in the Hair Salon for 20 YoCash. She is the first Moderator to have a unique tribute hair.
  • In December 2012, in yet another attempt from Mark Pincus to reduce costs, all Zynga moderator jobs were outsourced to the Philippines, where the minimum wage is a lot cheaper and therefore he doesn't have to pay as much for his moderators. By January 2013, all ninjas were replaced.
  • Although it had never been announced by Zynga, Azure Ninja actually left in November 2012, technically leaving YoVille without a Community Manager.
