Would You pay To Play VMK? I would tell me what you think.

I would have to say no. I didn't pay for any items (movie rewards) on vmk. I won't start paying to play a game that was free for 3 years.

This is a tough one. If they let you keep your existing characters and items I might consider it. If you had to start from scratch I'd write it off as a loss and no way would I give them any money for it.

I would do anything to continue VMK

As much as I love VMK, I say no. I don't think VMK should be a "Pay to play" game, simply because it's always been free.

1) If they decided to not close, all those who have already quit would be incredibly mad.
2) I personally don't want to pay for something that has always been free.
3) That would greatly cut down on the number of people playing VMK. I don't know about you, but I feel it wouldn't be the same VMK we know and love with the long queues, extreme lag, and begging guests.

Just my two cents. ;D

Never.. lol maybe a few months ago i would have... but it's boring now. and there is no point to it...

i would or you know
they should have it if you want to pay to play
like they should have if you pay X amount of $ you can be a community leader type person and get like special stuff in vmk.

Pinkdust
04-08-2008, 10:50 PM
Maybe. Depending on how much it would cost, would it be the same, how many of my friends would still play, etc.

If everything remained the same and it didn't cost too much, I might.

I wouldnt pay, my parents wont let me, plus if i quit, that'd be a waste of paying and i could've saved my money all along

I would certainly pay to play VMK. I think this game is more fun then ToonToown, POTCO, Club Penguin, or any other online game.

Cakee
04-08-2008, 11:07 PM
No, I honestly don't think it's worth paying for.
Sure I'll miss VMK and all, but right now.. I don't really care, most of my friends left anyways and it's not as fun without them.

Oxyray
04-08-2008, 11:11 PM
If i were able to keep my character and everything i had and didnt have to pay for items inside VMK I would still play but if i was new i wouldnt play

Mizz.V
04-08-2008, 11:13 PM
No way. I don't care if I get my character back. I am already paying clubpenguin(and paying) and I know that will not ever end so....N-O

I would pay for VMK before paying for POTCO or ToonTown...but I would not pay to play VMK, so... http://www.ilovetherain.com/Emote/eye.gif

There are only two sites that I find worth putting any real money towards; One of them I've been playing for nearly 7 years, and one of them i've been staff of for nearly 5 years. And even then, it took a whole lot of time before I decided to start throwing any cash at them.

I would certainly pay to play VMK. I think this game is more fun then ToonToown, POTCO, Club Penguin, or any other online game. I agree with you 100% of the way! I would pay to play to save VMK from closing!

Tommorowprince
04-09-2008, 01:15 AM
Most certainly. I think that the thing to do though would be what other sites are doing (Club Penguin, Toontown, Flickr, ect.) There should be a free version of VMK, and an all-access version with a yearly fee.

Agree with you both were else can you bring home a real disney park. Not just movies or parts of Disney.
I would pay for sure.

04-09-2008, 03:49 AM
Yes, I would.
If it meant vmk staying open then YES.

As long as I could keep my stuff currently and as long as it wasn't expensive and had to be paid by credit card(I hate when sites do that-I can't use my mom's).
Also, before the announcement that VMK was closing, I would have been more split, but I say 100% yes if that would mean VMK staying.

mdck7768
04-14-2008, 03:19 PM
Really depends on how they would do it and how much it would cost. I think it should be like other online games where you can play for free but limit where you can go, what you can do and what you can buy. Then if you want unlimited access you could pay a resonable amount.

kyancey7
04-14-2008, 03:33 PM
I have to say no.even though if i do get my dude back.theres other games thats worth paying for.1 is clubpenguin.Thats all I have to say>

04-14-2008, 05:36 PM
If we were allowed to keep our log-on info and all our stuff (magic pins, regular pins, rooms, clothes, furniture and credits), I would gladly pay a yearly subscription fee for my VMK account. :mickey:

TheDisneyFan
04-14-2008, 05:45 PM
I love VMK so much, but I would not ever pay to play it. It would lose a great number of VMK players probably, and it used to be free so why switch it to pay to play? I'll miss all of my friends, sorry.

~DisneyFan

chorustwo
04-14-2008, 05:46 PM
I would, but then I wouldn't I already spend enough money every month for everything else in the world, but for an online game: I don't think so. If it does turn out to be pay to play, then I don't think I can play much longer. It'd have to be an official goodbye from cooly:(:(

I want to save vmk, but if it closes I'm not paying. Besides I don't even have the money.

04-14-2008, 07:28 PM
I have been paying for Disney Movie Rewards so I guess I would pay to play also.

04-14-2008, 07:51 PM
Only if they overhauled the management and actually employed some people who knew how to properly represent Disney.

Khaki_footed
04-14-2008, 08:09 PM
this question is better suited for the parents of players who are kids. seeing as how kids can't purchase items online, it falls to the parents to pay over the internet. i voted no personally. don't necessarily have the money to spend on the game and if i did, there are more important life purchases to be made.

No. As much as I love VMK, I don't wanna spend money

I agree with Alice. :]

I would not pay, sadly.

It would be a waist to pay for something that was free for three years. I feel sad towards this.

04-15-2008, 11:22 PM
DEFINITLY! My Mom Said That She Would Go Up To 15$ A Month To Let Me Keep Playing!

Club Penguin, Toontown, AND POTCO all try to make people pay. Isn't that enough? D:

shadowkryptonite
04-16-2008, 12:35 AM
I would no. Im not gonna play a game that was free, and that is helped by a guy who lies about stuff on VMK 24/7.

Ofcoure I would pay to play it!!

SillyBrightPuppy
04-17-2008, 07:16 AM
hmm I am not sure about this actually
mostly it would be a no though because I dont play games where it costs cash
But still I dont know...

I'm paying for POTCO, but if VMK offered the option "pay to play" I would stop paying for POTCO and start paying for VMK.

04-21-2008, 10:59 PM
I would depending on how much it costs. So yea I would definetly pay to play vmk.

04-25-2008, 10:38 PM
Absolutely! VMK is too much fun to quit on us now!

Or maybe not. I dont know.

No probably not

TomorrowAlpha
04-29-2008, 04:23 AM
No. I wouldn't pay to play VMK. I'm sorry, but it isn't really all that fun. At least not anymore. To me its just not worth paying for. MapleStory? Now that's different.

cguy
05-01-2008, 09:19 PM
thats a hard one

greenhpper
05-02-2008, 12:59 AM
IF I were to pay (and that's a big IF) I would expect some serious changes to occur and as Alice stated it would bepend if I get to keep all my stuff or have to start over again. I might consider starting over again IF I was assured that lag issues were resolved, better games, a rehaul of Jungle cruise, less crashing, better servers, etc. Otherwise I would enjoy watching my money burn more that paying for VMK as it stands ;)

xoop
05-02-2008, 02:15 AM
I agree with autoalice. Sure, VMK's fun and has been so much...fun. (I know I already said that.) But I'm not too sure if it's worth it.

SoraStarChan
05-02-2008, 01:32 PM
I don't really know if I would. I probably will just because I love Disney so much ^.^

gracievp
05-04-2008, 11:26 PM
Simply i have no idea, If they made it better, And if you could pay in UK as well then MAYBE. but it was free, and much cooler, the vibe was wicked, but now its dull dude. Way dull.

I have to agree I have a ton of rare items I have collected from this year's holidays alone and thats one of the things I hate the most about VMK closing so if I could keep my current character and my items yes I would have to say I would consider paying for it. But not if they wanted start you completely from scratch though.

la4gator
05-25-2008, 02:39 AM
as much as i love vmk, no i wont pay money to play an online game. it just isnt worth it to play an online game when you need to pay once a month

Straws
05-25-2008, 03:44 AM
honestly, why would you want to pay for a virtual game that could possibly close down again. It is just like throwing money away.

The Minigolf Master
05-25-2008, 07:45 PM
I'd pay a million bucks for it!!!

Super Megaquack
05-26-2008, 01:22 AM
Nope, I wouldn't play for free either. If you payed me, maybe lol. I just wasn't much of a fan of VMK personally. Not that I'm happy it closed or anything, I don't feed on another's misfortune.

osmello
05-26-2008, 06:14 PM
well here's my idea. You know how they sell bricks for the WDW espalande? Well you could sell virtual bricks to support keeping vmk open. I was one who spent money for movie rewards and pins to get codes, and if it meant keeping my ears, I would have tried to support the kingdom. Virtual bricks would keep money flowing in and we would all have a virtually good time!

I so want to get a brick with my VMK avatars' titles on it! This is a cool idea :)

AthleticAisha
05-27-2008, 09:35 PM
As much as i love the game, i wouldnt. I mean, spending all that time on it, and paying for it is just giving disney what they want. then who knows... it could close down again in the near future @_@... vmk was fun to play, yes, but i wouldnt pay for Any online game o_o

PinkTinkPixie
05-28-2008, 12:01 AM
Y'know, I really don't know right now... I suppose I might, but only if 1) my mom would pay for it, or 2) I was absolutely sure that I wouldn't want to buy anything with whatever money I get for a year or so (which is basically impossible, since I could never be sure of that).

I don't think VMK, if it ever comes back, would be pay to play, anyway. But that's just my opinion.

as long as the brick words were in the VMK dictionary you could put whatever you want on them! Hey disney, did you hear that? I already sold one brick!

06-08-2008, 09:05 PM
Well ill say no but that will make me so sad cuz i really like vmk and last summer ispent everyday like 7 hours on vmk ( the days i didn't go anywhere ) and i also met lots of great ppl :'(

purpal_panther
06-08-2008, 11:07 PM
I would defiantly pay to play, all tho i think that a big company like Disney has enough money that they should not have to do pay to play on any online game of theirs

Astrogoldstar
06-08-2008, 11:11 PM
Sorry to say, but i wouldn't. I need to keep my money for more important things..

I would definitely pay to play VMK

I have a question. A lot of people are saying: "No, VMK is boring, or "No, VMK is a waste." My question is, if you think VMK is boring and a waste, why are you on the VMK Fan Forums?

monniedisny
06-12-2008, 05:53 AM
I would pay to play VMK. I won't pay to play all those other online games they are trying to stuff down our throats instead of getting VMK back.

06-12-2008, 07:45 AM
I'd definitely pay to play.
Unlike other disney games, VMK is actually worth the time and money. It's fun and very addicting. Club penguin and Pirates Online, I wouldn't pay for.

I have a question. A lot of people are saying: "No, VMK is boring, or "No, VMK is a waste." My question is, if you think VMK is boring and a waste, why are you on the VMK Fan Forums?

In my opinion, I wouldn't want to play if I had to pay for it. Why? Because:

- We would lose a good portion of the VMK community, and as much as I would miss all the guests running around asking for free things, it just wouldn't be the same.
- I feel that all our efforts to get VMK back would be in vain if they're making us pay to play it. If the real reason it closed was because of monetary issues, that means they're only opening it up again to make a profit, not because they care about what we wanted.
- What if something happened like your friend couldn't pay for the next month (for whatever reason). Then you probably wouldn't see them again, or at least not for a while.

So overall, I just think the general "atmosphere" of VMK would be way different than before we started. IMHO, making something "Pay to Play" is basically like saying "You 40% of the community aren't allowed to play because you won't give us money". And by that point I'd just feel bad for all the people who worked so hard to get VMK back, but wouldn't be able to play after all that.

MeiMei
06-12-2008, 10:52 PM
You have some good points Zimonada. VMK's atmosphere wouldn't be the same if it became pay to play. I would still pay though...

06-30-2008, 02:41 AM
Do it like Maplestory. Pay for special items that can be bought in the cash shop. (Although the community that plays VMK is much different than those who play Maplestory. More people would complain about VMK "Relying more on Cash shop people!"

Although they didn't complain about people who had quest items, so I guess it might be ok. ^_^.

Just my input.
