Hello Kitty....Why do you try to insult the kitty kingdom

Recently I was made aware of the current attempt to ridicule the Hello Kitty guild (AD/PC/NA). While I was at first a little upset, I stopped to think about it. Saying HK stands for Helen Keller and laughing about it as your friends cheer you on is not an insult. In fact it's actually the opposite. Comparing HK to this remarkable women lends great credit to us. We are an average group of players, we run group sizes from 6 to 24. We are not a zerg as everyone thinks. We are no different than any other guild group. Our numbers vary, the quality of our players vary, and we win as many times as we loose. We have some really fun players in the guild and most of all we do not bring poor sportsmanship to the game as some of the other guilds that simply spam their 1 button combos. So if the other factions and some of our own AD faction wants to compare us to a person who's life was filled with extraordinary accomplishments, extremely successful and recognized as one of the true miracles in our time (historically), than please go right ahead, I will smile ever time you do so because I know we are doing something right.

For all those uneducated about Helen Keller here is a few facts you should acquaint yourself with.

Helen Keller

American Author

Helen Adams Keller was an American author, political activist, and lecturer. She was the first deafblind person to earn a bachelor of arts degree. The story of how Keller's teacher, Anne Sullivan, broke through the isolation imposed by a near complete lack of language, allowing the girl to blossom as she learned to communicate, has become widely known through the dramatic depictions of the play and film The Miracle Worker. Her birthplace in West Tuscumbia, Alabama, is now a museum and sponsors an annual "Helen Keller Day". Her birthday on June 27 is commemorated as Helen Keller Day in the U.S. state of Pennsylvania and was authorized at the federal level by presidential proclamation by President Jimmy Carter in 1980, the 100th anniversary of her birth

    Helen Keller was definitely an amazing woman. My grandma spoke very highly of the time when she was lucky enough to meet Helen Keller in person when she visited my grandma's school and gave everyone a motivational speech.

    I'll always think of HK guild as Helen Keller guild now in a good way!

    Helen Keller was an outstanding woman and example in overcoming hardship.

    Why anyone would degrade her and associate her with anything named after a cartoon, SIGH. :(

    Awesome post Anazasi! Everything you said is spot on. Those that gleefully engage in this kind of senseless cruelty have been shown something special due to the honesty and kindness you displayed in your response. I only hope that your words have struck a chord somewhere in them, and that perhaps they will be better humans because of it... Even in the smallest way. Gotta start somewhere. :smile:

    Classy post. It's bizarre to say the least that anyone would attempt to use a comparison to Helen Keller as an insult. If she were alive today I have a feeling she would simply laugh and forgive. HK indeed. :-)
    Disabling the grass may improve performance.

    Nah man check your facts, Anne Frank was the kickas woman who united many Germanic tribes who became known as the Franks, obviously. Her gang raided and pillaged all throughout Asia and almost made it to Europe. They were so scary that the Chinese built a wall to keep them away
