One of the more unusual experiences inside HKO.

I met Drewby who became a hologram, luckily a GM saved him…but it was very Trekkie…

So I know most of my compadres are mining inside Hello Kitty Online and I have been saying for some time that Farming is a good (and less perilous) way of earning money.

Now I am a power farmer of sorts but it really is quite profitable in ways, and to illustrate this point please see the following:

1. One seed of Red Cabbage is 115 coins (divide by 5 seeds), fairly expensive, you also need one fertilizer and one water can (or two if you are slow).

2. On the drop ratio I low-averaged for 3 seeds 50 Cabbages, 29 withered leaves, 11 bugs and 15 bad roots as the final yield which gives me a return of 1200 coins on a total investment that is less than 400 coins (including water, ferts and 3 seeds of cabbage)

3. Taking into account that 50 was one of my lower collection averages on an investment of around 400 I could get profit of around 900 -1200 which is a 300-400% return. 

If you want to buy Ferts even cheaper, go along to Starrfire7’s poop shop and ask her for some, she will sell it you for a big discount to merchant prices! Seriously!

Right over here!

The Island of Fun is a cute online version that you can play a simplified HKO while you wait for the full download of the game….you can signup in the client automatically but if you have a Sanriotown account already be sure to link that one up first…

That’s right, you saw correctly, we are now talking big business baby! Well technically this is for the Hello Kitty Online Malaysia server and big thank you to Starrfire for donating a hefty 20,000 to the cause! Please wish her the very best for her generous donation!

I did a personal chant, the chant of solitude!

So now we just need to find our old members on the Malaysia Server!

Well this is news…while trying out the European closed beta I saw a flash client button, so I tried it and…lo and behold I am inside a kind of HKO lite or mini sort of version, stuff is greyed out but I can start the game and actually set up my character while the game is downloading/installing.

Now that is pretty cool….

A funny article that discusses the likeness of My Melody and King Kong. Read it here.

The below is the image that inspired it.

Well the news itself is nothing new but that the launch is imminent is! Now you can signup for the beta at http://hko.aeriagames.com/signup so GO!!! what are you waiting for!

It’s finally coming to the shores of America (hums I want to be in America to herself)

Thanks to Azog, it was his post that got me noticing it!

For those of you who need defending the cute way…here it comes!

Maybe it’s meant to fool criminals into thinking their victims are unarmed, only to be met with 50,000 volts of adorable electricity. The device is a custom version of the Taser C2, a unique weapon that uses “propelled wires to conduct energy to affect the sensory and motor functions of the nervous system.” The gun can shoot out 15 feet of insulated conductive wire, but it can also be used as a direct contact stun device. Double the fun!

This would do well in some hardcore MMO’s I can think of! Watch out Warhammer!

So I was reading the posts of Hello Kitty Online coming to North America (whoo hoo! cheers and champagne!) and this post caught my attention, how come Kittynator is the poster boy? (Gratz Kittynator btw!)

The post is below for those to lazy to click on it!
