Effects not showing up because of having a KoC character?

Alright, so there are some effects that aren't showing up on my character and I couldn't think of there being any other reason than it being caused by the fact that I made a KoC character.

The problem is with two things I've found, one the maple effect, and the other is the effect from a Rose Crush Ring. While the effect itself shows up, the little heart that appears above your head doesn't.

Is anyone else who made a KoC character having problems with effects?
