View Full Version : Is it safe?
Pubsy 11-10-2007, 01:50 PM As many of you probably just read the the new YAVN SPEAKS im worried. Many people on vmk fansites trade codes. What if i brought codes from a code trader and its a generator code? Will i get banned? I sent this to vmk they have not replied yet. Is it safe?
Whipstersh 11-10-2007, 02:04 PM You could. Let's just hope that nobody on here uses generator.
Pubsy 11-10-2007, 02:06 PM its not safe anymore lol

Beautiful 11-10-2007, 02:20 PM are you still allowed to use VMKpal? bc i am very confused?!?!
StitchMad 11-10-2007, 02:21 PM This is one of the reasons why on this site you need comformation from a moderator to trade. We can only hope that the mods won't allow anyone un-trustworthy in there. This is also one of the reasons why if I want a code from someone, I will only do it with someone I have known for a long time. I encourage everyone else to think the same.
Beautiful 11-10-2007, 02:23 PM i dont really know if we can use VMKpal anymore but does anyone else know?

I am wondering the same thing, he mentioned only playing through the VMK site.

i guess i will use contact us and ask them :turkeydanceani:
Orangemarker 11-10-2007, 02:56 PM My guess is, no VMKPal. He stated it very clearly-
I need to remind you though that you should only play those games (and VMK) with the software provided for download at VMK.com. Using other software to play VMK or generate codes from our system (and trust me, we know when you do it) will get your VMK account banned forever – and nobody wants that.
We've already banned many players for this, if you get banned for this violation, you won't get a second chance.

thedogboy 11-10-2007, 04:02 PM That is a bad assumption. The truth is that there are many programs available to help you play VMK. The reason why you don't hear about most of them is because they are designed with the intent to hack and modify the game, allowing the user to cheat. The moderators of these forums do a good job of stopping discussion of these programs.
I made VMK Pal for the sole reason of helping members of my family who were too young to login to VMK by themselves. As has been mentioned by others in this thread, it is just a wrapper around Internet Explorer that does not make any changes to VMK itself or give the user any advantage in game play.
I believe that Yavn's warning is in response to the users of a new program which is designed to help you cheat in a particular mini-game and not to VMK Pal. Still, as I've always said, if you aren't comfortable using VMK Pal, then don't use it. I won't be offended, I promise :)
I just want people to understand that there do exist other programs out there which do generate codes for you and which do allow you to cheat in VMK. VMK Pal is not one of them.
Here is a quote from Carioca (he created VMKpal)
Beautiful 11-10-2007, 04:24 PM Yay So We Can Play VMKpal!! does a little dance Woot! Woot! I'm So Happy!!

Ctrl+Prt Scr
jamiewe 11-10-2007, 06:48 PM it was Alt and PrtScr
Thark 11-10-2007, 07:05 PM On this site there should be no problems with generator produced codes. Most often those codes are only from the mini-games, such as the Pirates of the Caribbean Dead Man's Chest game, and the Chronicles of Narnia game. Since people have used generators, VMKForums does not allow any trading of those codes.
But the good news is that the POTC Dead Man's Chest game prizes are now tradeable.
Pubsy 11-10-2007, 09:14 PM yes i got like 5000 items in potc dead mans chest game prizes i brought the codes from a person. Thats why im scared
NASAMan 11-10-2007, 10:32 PM I can't imagine why anyone would buy codes! Do you mean with actual money? Why?
sunnyskye 11-10-2007, 10:44 PM Why would you buy codes? I doubt you will get Sparrow. Don't use them, they used a code generator.
SafariLyssaOnVMK 11-10-2007, 11:06 PM some people buy codes on places like E-bay. That is bad because the person probably already used it. I don't know why people do that
it was Alt and PrtScr
what does prtscr mean?
flaxygirl 11-10-2007, 11:23 PM what does prtscr mean?
Its a button on your keyboard, stands for print screen i think.
Whipstersh 11-10-2007, 11:48 PM what does prtscr mean?
It should be directly to the right of the F12 key (some keyboards may have a variation of this, but this being for most keyboards)
Gamertara 11-11-2007, 01:27 AM Wow! I dont know what generater codes are. But it looks pretty bad. What if you dont know that its a g code? But yeah I hope VMKPAL is ok.
TinkTaylor 11-11-2007, 02:44 AM yes as a matter of fact you can use VMKpal still i use it everyday :)

Alt+PrtSc (Alt+Print Screen) and then go into Paint and Ctrl+V
Also, Yavn could be bluffing. Maybe they don't know if you use VMKPal or not. Well, it's easy to bluff in typing, because it's flat out lying.
Well, if he did bluff, it was good because VMKPal could have advantages over the regular VMK browser.
Zimonada 11-18-2007, 12:47 AM Or it's just PrintScreen. I've never heard of the Alt or Ctrl part. o_o

-PrtScr takes a picture of your entire screen that appears on your computer.
-Ctrl + PrtScr does the same as PrtScr.
-Alt + PrtScr takes a picture of the Active Window on your screen.
VMKPal uses a screenshot type most similar to Alt + PrtScr.

Most comon keyboard come with a print screen button: mine just "PRINT SCREEN!"
Whipstersh 11-18-2007, 11:58 AM Most comon keyboard come with a print screen button: mine just "PRINT SCREEN!"
You don't have an 'Alt' or a 'Ctrl' key on your keyboard?
The combination of those keys along with the PrtScr button should produce the result I have posted above.
Comic_CheshireCat 11-22-2007, 06:23 AM As many of you probably just read the the new YAVN SPEAKS im worried. Many people on vmk fansites trade codes. What if i brought codes from a code trader and its a generator code? Will i get banned? I sent this to vmk they have not replied yet. Is it safe?
Yesh, U can get banned for entering illegally gotten codes. How does VMK staff know they aren't legit?? Not sure. http://www.vmkforums.com/forums/images/smilies/confused.gif Well let's ask our good buddy Yavn .. Yavn says, " .. trust me, we know when you do it" . :D LOLz.
Pubsy I wouldn't enter any codes given to U by persons U do not know. ;) You can't know where they've gotten them (they could very well be generated) or whether they're even valid codes. If U do decide trade for codes, request they give ya the code FIRST, if they're an honest player they'll happily accommodate yer request. :) Personally, I steer clear of code trading n' only swap codes with trusted friends. There's too much room for scamming when trading codes n' who wants to take a chance of possibly being banned?? Not moi. http://www.freesmileys.org/emo/angelic012.gif
