Ok most of you will probably think this is funny. I know I did. Here is the story:

I was in a free room and of course the owner wasn't here so I just decided to sit down in the chair. I did tell the people that "there was no free I am not the owner" and other were shouting "get out of the chair that is the owner chair" I knew that it was the owner chairs and if the owner was to come back I would get up. all of I sudden I see those words "i will report you." I asked for what, and he said that he reported me for sitting in the owner chair. is that not weird? I wasn't pretending to be the owner and I would give the chair back if owner was to come back.

The other time I was in a main street room and I noticed some guests have a little bit of an argument I went over to them and I was saying o them to be nice and calm down remember staff is watching. After that some of the people left and I was still talk to some of the other people when out of nowhere a guest in this room says "quiet everyone God" so of course being me I said that we have the right to speak on vmk and if you don't like it you can ignore or just leave the room, but I don't have to be quiet. So again here come these words "I have reported you." I ask for what, he said (are you ready for this) "for not stop talking on vmk and tell me what to do). I never told them what to do all I said was to click ignore or you leave the room. I didn't tell them to leave the room. I said as a suggestion.

Isn't this weird or what? Do they not know staff doesn't like fake emergencies. tell me what you or if you have any stories you want to share. (sorry for my spelling mistakes if there is any I wrote this being a half a sleep).

I agree with you too. Here are a lot of examples of this happening to me

I was giving away free in a room, and I had to go in like 5 minutes and I told people in the room, get in line in tent second or no free. Then I gave out some free and then I had to go. Then this one girl said "im reporting you for something you didnt do so u get banned! haha!" This really ticked me off, not by being afraid of being banned or anything because I knew I wasnt gonna get banned, but like how could you say that to someone? They like seriously needed to get a life.

In the Sci Fi Dine In, one girl was saying bad words and stuff and saying that people were ugly and I told her to knock it off and to stop being mean and rude or I would report her. Then she kept saying bad words and I told her that I reported her and then she said I reported you too. and Im like for what? and she said because you reported me and your telling me what to do. I didn't tell her what to do on anything instead of to stop being mean and rude to people.

In the Sci Fi Dine In also people say in trades like. This has happend with me before but they say "go out with me or ill report u" im like No Way!! Are they that dumb? I mean seriously.

When I was in a free room also, I was at the front of the line, and the owner left, so I decided to sit in the chair that the owner was sitting in. And people kept on trading me asking for free and I was saying no. Then people would say "give me free or ill report u" and they said that a lot and I said Im not owner. And then I got out of the chair and just waited in line where I was, then people would say "Destination, you give out free" and then I would say "Why?" and they said, you rich so give us free.

People would say to like in Town Square that there switching accounts and there poor, so they would always ask me for free, and this boy came up to me and was like "Can i have free?" and i said no, and he kept saying "Pirate magic plz!" and he kept asking and he would say "come on" "your mean" and he kept asking for it then I said "Please stop it now or im going to report you" and he left the room right away. I wasn't gonna report him I just always say that because they stop or they run away.

I was waiting to join a game in the haunted mansion when this girl can up to me and then others asking to trade magic. She was saying please many times, before she clicked on me and ask if I would trade magic. I replied "no thank you" two times, then on the third time she asked If I did what would I trade for? I then replied "for gold ears". She then said "You are a scam-mer!" I hate Scam-mers! I need to report you! I tried to explain I only answered her question, and I did not want to trade in the first place.

She then ran off saying the same things where everyone could read it.
I don't know if she reported me or not, but I seen that she was in my friends list & I did not remember even talking with her before. Ether way I deleted her from my list.

People like to use it a threat

This happens to me everyday... people report other people for stupid things... for example, I sat in a chair which somebody just sat in, so that person reported me because it was "their chair" -.-

but ya, like flaxygirl said, they use it as a threat... they think you'll be so scared rofl

It's mostly guests that do that though... most of them are stupid, they don't know that they can get banned for that LOL

A lot of people think that, if your not in the room they cant report you. You can still report weather there in the room only if you remember there title.

I've always been against some of the childish things people report for nowadays...

I seriously don't know why people still report for chat when they have a nice 'Ignore' button right there that works so much faster.

So last night, I was haning out in the Sci-Fi Drive in, and I was reading this thread. Then a girl walks in and said

girl: "You're in my car!"
me: "What? This is a car for everyone"
girl: "I reported you"
me: "Ok thanks anyway"

Then later I was in a trade room...

girl: "Trade me for your santa hat"
-go in trade-
-offers heart seat-
me: "No thanks I am not looking for that."
girl: "Scammer! I will report you!"
me: "Ok"
-leave trade-
girl: "Don't trade with Berge! Scammer!"
-everyone is like what! what did she do!
girl: "She asked me to borrow my dream ears, and then say she wouldn't give them back"
me: "But I am wearing my own pair of dream ears"
girl: "Well good because its the last time you will, I report you!"
-girl then booted from room-

Weird Huh? Where do people come up with this stuff?

I don't know why people do that either. It is stupid and a waste of time for the VMK Staff. By the way...

Scenario 1: You won't get banned. It was a false report by the girl. (And the car is for everyone, or else it wouldn't be a in a public room, rofl.)

Scenario 2: You won't get banned either. Another false report by another girl, and everything is logged in the chat logs, so staff can see who is really breaking the rules. ;)

Me: No It's Not

And Then That Player Got Banned For 10 Years. That Happened To Me Yesterday

i don't mean to put down any of our younger forum members by saying this. a lot of the people who have fits about this stuff, have to be little kids. they don't get what no means, so they freak out that they didn't get their way. i've had so many instances where they've tried to turn something they're doing wrong against me. I reported one dude for tellling the rest of us in Pirates to go somewhere..... then that he would <do something inappropriate to> us. it's ridiculous some of the things you hear (read) in game.

once inside a Cute Or Boot room, the game came down to the final 2... a guest and some rich dude... of course the rich dude won best dressed, so now the guest is MAD so she goes up to the guy and says " I just reported you. Now I'm going to get the hat and you'll get banned " The guy responded " Your the won who is going to get banned for false report " Everyone else is just watching... then the guest said something inappropriate and after that we never saw her again o_o

ok this must be the dumbest reason i ever got reported for:

I walk into a trade room
Girl asks to trade
Once we're in trade, she says "Give me your bird hat for free or i'll report you for scamming and you'll get banned forever just like your mummy"
So I say "No."
She says "Ok then say hello to your mummy bc you're getting banned with her and you too will live in a card board box on the street with a gold fish that keep you company so haha haha haha haha haha haha!!"
She exits trade and says "Omg omg BestKookieCookie just stole my bird hat!!"
And everyone starts saying they'll report me and the girl cuts in and says "Just like her mummy, burn!!"
So then everybody, including owner disappears. Except me.
I'm the only one in the room and staff sends me some message saying "Thank you for addressing this problem. It has been handled."
But the thing is I never reported.

Yup strange stuff !!

I say let them go mad reporting false reports!! Say nothing to these people. Remember if you did nothing wrong you have nothing to worry about.


quote from VMK.com homepage

Remember use VMK's "Call for help tool wisely"
"Remember: Reporting false information to VMK can get you in trouble, and banned from the game."

The more those people report the less we have of them walking around in VMK.

These are so funny!

Once a random person came up to me and said "Be my friend or I'm reporting you." At frist I was kinda scared, but I knew that she was just using it as a threat. So I decided to ignore her, yet before I did she said "I reported you."
I didn't get banned or even contacted.
