Forum post of the day: Rude emails
by Amanda Dean 
Apr 1st 2008 at 4:30PM
Alyse posted on the Hello Kitty Online official Staff Lounge forum that she's having a bad time with another player who's sending mean, nasty emails. Alyse had posted a video application for the Beta Test that other player left a rude comment about. They started exchanging emails and the other player has gotten totally out of line. She's completely missing the super-positive spirit of the game.
Alyse doesn't know what to do. She said "Then in the last e-mail she sent me she used full-fledged profanity at me. I refuse to curse when I'm upset and I find it very trashy to do so. I was completely offended by her e-mail so I chose to completely stop trying to reason with her and I deleted it." Tohomiko_K said that she sent an email to Alyse. I sure hope it's a nice one.
All I have to say to Alyse is, "you go girl!" She's really smart for deleting the last email and I'm really proud of her for not sinking to the cursing level. How would you respond to someone sending you rude messages in Hello Kitty Online?

This has to be the worst April Fool's idea ever.
Unsubscribed!
Smoke that in your Hello Kitty pipes.

Oh no we lost frank, abandon ships.

frank has no value, net change = zero

Lol Vegnagun bwf, nice one. Yeah, these people that can't handle the joke for a single day seriously need to delete their accounts anyhow.
Grats to HKO Insider for, minus today, filling the void in so many otherwise empty lives.

Awwww, Kitty looks cranky. Here, I'll cheer you up with some "Chuck Norris" jokes.
candace Apr 1st 2008 4:38PM
This cracks me up. The HKO has to be the best ever APril Fool's joke.

WOWInsider's mediocre writing skills are certainly more suited to HKO Insider..
Nasrin Apr 1st 2008 4:47PM
So, you have 44 comment posts dating back to 11/30/06, yet you complain here that the writing sucks. AND YET YOU STILL COME BACK TO READ IT? I, for one, am sick of hearing people say all the writers here suck. If they suck so bad, why does everyone who complains come back for more? Even if it is to flame the bloggers, you are still generating site traffic.....
Kudos to WoWInsider for their creativity. I don't see anyone on the Blizzard official forms whining about the Bard class...

Never resort to cursing, you never want to go down to their level that is my policy
Sean Riley Apr 1st 2008 5:10PM
Nah. Descend to their level. You can never have good communication between unequals. ;)

"I don't see anyone on the Blizzard official forms whining about the Bard class..."
Um yea thats because they are not dragging us through article after article of this useless dreg.....usually april fools "jokes" stop after a few tries...they have succeeded in taking something and totally bastardize it....
Nasrin Apr 1st 2008 11:58PM
Are you being forced to read it? No. That's like going back to a restaurant time and time again to complain about the service, food or experience, yet going back with your friends EVERY week..... if you don't like it, take a break for a day and come back.
Woolwort Apr 1st 2008 4:58PM
Oops, double post.
PXP Apr 1st 2008 5:19PM
so, she wont use profanity, but is more than willing to call somebody trashy?
kind of a double standard if you ask me. its not the actual word that really means anything in the first place, its the message you are relaying with that word that is important.
i think alyse needs to take a good look at her hypocracy.

DI'm two minutes from removing this site from my RSS feed and favorites. Sure, a few Hello Kitty editorials is tolerable, but when an entire site devotes nothing else to this stupid joke, then it has gone too far. In no way is World of Warcraft even close to Hello Kitty; in fact, Hello Kitty is a much younger targeted demographic in the US (perhaps in oother countries, the demograph is older)
keiko Apr 1st 2008 6:06PM
Ms. Dean, I just want to say: best HKO-post yet! ^_^
ALYSE Apr 3rd 2008 7:11PM
O_O This post is about... me?????? X_X"
I read about your prank on hellokittyonline.com and then I came to see what you did and I'm on it?!!?! LOL!!! I think this is a great prank and me and my boyfriend got a huge laugh out of me being on here. Lol.
BUT!!! Excuse me PXP, but it is not hypocrisy to call someone trashy... I'm not calling them a fcking trashmuffin or anything... And the reason why I don't curse may have more to do with me not being able to sound angry enough when I do because I throw words like 'muffin' in.
Anyhow, me and my boyfriend are EQ2 people, not WoW people... Even though one day he downloaded the trial and I almost dumped him for it... Maybe I'll reconsider... some of you have good senses of humor... then others are too uptight and can't handle a day away from WoW and into HKO.
