In the Players Discussion section of VMKF people are always suggesting ideas for VMK. This is how you actually send an idea to VMK.


1. Go to contact us on the bottom of the vmk home page.

2. Once its open enter in your username (the name you use to log into VMK) and the birthday you entered into VMK when you signed up.

3. Then select "I want to give feedback on something in VMK. (There isn't technically a thing to select for sending an idea in, but when you have an idea usually its to make something better. So mention the thing you are making better in the letter to them)

4. Now the final step. A box will come up on the bottom that says " Your Comments: ". In the box, say what you want to change in VMK. Make sure you put in every detail you have and all of the reasons why it would help players of VMK. If its against the VMK Values I dont think they would take it into consideration, but you never know. Also, make the letter as polite as possible. Dont yell at them about it.

Another step 3 and after...

3. There are also three other steps that you can use. These are more specific.
" I want to suggest a word for the VMK dictionary " is one.

1. Select " I want to suggest a word for the VMK dictionary ".

2. A screen will some up that says... "We're still working on the allowed words list, to make communication easier in VMK. Please help us by providing the following info:
1. Your suggested words, separated by a comma (e.g. Mickey, hello, rotfl)
2. An explanation of why you need these words in VMK
Please note: we will not reply to your word suggestions, but we will consider them carefully." A box under that is where you enter the word/words. And a box under that is your reasons why. (Use the same rules as step four above)

The next one is "I want to send in something for the newsletter"

1. Select "I want to send in something for the newsletter"

2. This one is easy. A box comes up that has "Please write your article/poem or whatever else it is you want to submit for the newsletter here. If it's good enough and there's room, it might get into the VMK newsletter, which is published on the website!" written above it. Do exactly what it says.

And the last one is "Dear Yeti..."

1. Select "Dear Yeti..."

2. A box will appear that has "Do you have a question for the Yeti? Send it to him here. Each week he'll answer two questions and post them in the Newsletter. If you have a question about a Disney park, film or just anything Disney, send it his way now! Please keep in mind you will not get a reply to this submission," written above it. And in the box, write the question.

I know a better way...

step three after you select send feedback on something in VMK you click continue. not the button but the small text that is underlined. then it takes you to a page that says. "Did any of the FAQs answer your problem? select No. then type in your problem and you will get an actual response from staff in a few days. This method works best for bigger problems. dont overuse it. you might get in trouble.

Thanks! If it would be nice if you could post one of the emails you've gotten back, just so I can make sure it works. Then I will see if I can add it:-)

Just a note:

I think VMK staff is onto this and they are not terribly happy, so I would avoid using it for trivial things or for items where there is a very specific menu option already. I say this because I noticed some odd changed to the Push and Top Players sections of the Newsletter. Note that VMK is now saying:


Send your answer in using Contact Us. Be sure to have your VMK registration info with you and select Push's Trash Trivia from the drop down menu.

If you do not submit your answer by 'Contact Us' and using the Push Trivia option your answer WILL NOT be considered.

From the correct answers (submitted using the Push Trivia option) we randomly select three players as the winners and send them a virtual Push Trivia Pin prize.

Only entries submitted by using the Push Trivia option in Contact Us and sent by close of game on Friday will be accepted.



and

To nominate a player for consideration, click the Contact Us link at the bottom of any VMK webpage and then follow the prompts. You must select Nominate the Best from the list of options to have your nomination considered

I agree. Id stay away from using his idea. And when you send in an idea, you dont need an answer. Thanks UpInTheAir
