I know I have spoken of guilds, and perhaps the "buddy list," but one of the main things of Hello Kitty are the friends. I feel that this is somewhat important to talk about because it's not a "feature" of the game that the programmers write, but something that the users create.

 
A bunch of players sitting around, having a good time.

Currently, it seems that in the main town of Florapolis, people gather and talk. Every time I get on, someone is there to talk with. I got a call back for a job interview (I am trying to get my first co-op, a intern like thing where a job is tied to my schooling). The first person to find out and congratulate me was a GM online at the time. Just today a bunch of us gathered in Florapolis to talk about Hello Kitty, hoodies with ears, and more.

One of the things I feel strongly about is community. I have played a fair share of XBOX Live, and as fun as I find Halo 3, I can't help but shudder every time a rude or just down right mean person comes across my headset. It is one of the more depressing things of online games. In World of Warcraft, it seemed people did nasty things all the time like steal loot. For beta testers and soon to be HKO players, I feel there is something we all have to keep in tact, and that is the sense of caring and community currently in the Hello Kitty Online game.

Helping other players means they will help you, or help others. I have seen it done, and done it myself. You can interact with people, and they become your friends. You know perhaps what age they are, or their favorite character, or perhaps each time you get online you discuss music, anime, or anything really. I've already spent hours chatting away with my friends in the game. Any people are so personable.

So I encourage everyone to strive for a friendly community that supports. Helping others figure out quests or get items is not only fun, but nice and helps to build the sort of game atmosphere that really makes gaming fun.
