I wasn’t expecting the HKO map interface to change, but there were some pretty obvious changes for the better! The cute images are now gone, replaced by icons that corresponding to those appearing on the map, very user-friendly. And the map is no longer cluttered with overlapping text because these now appear only when you mouse over them. The best update must be the addition of the "!" and "?" signs by the NPCs, conveniently telling you if there is a quest available or no. Thank you HKO team ^^.
ripplecloud logged in more than one day later from when the event got started. Luckily for her, she met the amazing Katsuko, whom you may know as the highly efficient secretary from Founders’ Beta days heehee :P
While ripplecloud was trying to make sense of all those confusing new quest requirements, she became happily distracted from the quest at hand when she bumped into Bi.
They had the most amusing conversation about censorship. In fact, ripplecloud very rapidly discovered the high level of censorship in the game within the first five seconds of spawning in New York. That is not too say that ripplecloud uses undesirable words in every phrase.
So having now discovered the witty intellect lying hidden within Bi’s blonde head, she was obliged to discuss the same scintillating topic of censorship with Bi. :DDD
It was riotous conversation and ripplecloud went on with the game in good spirits. She was extremely happy to meet noliai, even if briefly in the game.
And she was also very fortunate to receive a lot of extremely useful quest tips from Starrfire7 and the rest of the guild in the guild chat.
ripplecloud soon made her pot of strawberry fondue and was on her way to Paris to finish the quest when she discovered a merry gang at London! :DDDDDD It was Azog, Serenity, Bi, Lilypop and GM_Calealen on the board.
Together the merry gang formed the swear word testing group :P
There were some very interesting comments going on, but in the interest of preserving community harmony, most have been censored by ripplecloud :P
So newbies! Watch your language! xD …

Very informative XD Wish there was a way I can unblock all the filter cause I don’t mind reading bad words especially if the word was filtered by accident. Your day seemed really fun. I wonder if Japanese and spanish words are also filtered? I’ll try talking in spanish next time lol.

Funny!XD I learned that the hard way: I accidentally stole someone’s wolf (by whacking it) so I messaged the other player and my message turned out someth like this: “Oops! Sorry, I didn’t mean to steal your ****!” I think I made it worse.x_x

@Azog, hooray for dirty minds indeed! That line made me LOL… as well as the other long and windy definition about something that you typed out xD
