View Full Version : Something I noticed. Very sad.
PolarFish 04-09-2008, 12:18 AM It's just so sad to look at all of the posts made before the news.. How happy we all were with all the new stuff. At the time we didn't even predict this happening any time soon.
2+ Days ago:
Awesome! I can't wait!
Yes finally a green football outfit!
I'm going to wear that for pride for green! =D
good thing. i didnt get to get the baseball room before.
i love the refreshment stuff.
when does it come out?
I like this new item! Its exotic and pretty
I the game footbase. - rofl -
Footbase looks like a funny game
Yay Footbase! Reminds me of the movie Baseketball
and then.. in a matter of hours.. just a few words can completely change the happiness of a person.. :(
OMG! No. I didn't want to see this day come!
No! Why are they doing this to us? Most of the people here on VMKF call VMK our home away from home, what will we do with our VMK time?
Omg, I think I'll have a heart attack, omg im going to die omg, please no!
I find this very sad... although I did predict it coming. :(
VMK was supposed to be a happy place, it's now the complete opposite..

CaptainLegoDude 04-09-2008, 12:20 AM This is just stupid of Yavn! Why did he have to do this?! So many people loved VMK.. -.-

GoodPolarGirl 04-09-2008, 12:20 AM I agree :( very sad indeed
PolarFish 04-09-2008, 12:22 AM This is just stupid of Yavn! Why did he have to do this?! So many people loved VMK.. -.-

I think we should be blaming Disney for this. I think Yavn is as sad to see it close as we are.. although.. you never know :(
GoodPolarGirl 04-09-2008, 12:22 AM Yea, Yavn is a member of Sulake NOT Disney
AllAboutStitch 04-09-2008, 12:22 AM great point polar great point..
GoodPolarGirl 04-09-2008, 12:24 AM great point polar great point..
Thank you very much :Wink:
KellisMan 04-09-2008, 12:25 AM Please don't blame Yavn for this, that is shooting the messenger. Yavn doesn't choose what happens with any online games, Disney does, even though he is in Disney Online Games' Department Management.
TinkTaylor 04-09-2008, 12:26 AM I think we should be blaming Disney for this. I think Yavn is as sad to see it close as we are.. although.. you never know :(
I Would Not Blame ALL Of Disney PolarFish All Of Disney Is Not Incharge Of VMK And Maybe Its Just The Disney Internet Team.... I TOTALLY Agree With You Though But Try Not To Blame It All On Disney.
Destination 04-09-2008, 12:27 AM that is sad.
CaptainLegoDude 04-09-2008, 12:28 AM I think we should be blaming Disney for this. I think Yavn is as sad to see it close as we are.. although.. you never know :(
Alright, I can understand that PolarFish.
Then whoever decided to close it needs a slap in on the head!!
~Captain
Eviie 04-09-2008, 12:30 AM Great point made!!
I personally do blame Yavn. If you have fire in your heart about something, you will do everything possible to prevent it from happening. I know because i would fight. It seems he's just announcing it and going with the flow. That's my opinion... don't need to believe it that's why its an opinion i don't need to get flamed for what i believe in.
CuteTabitha 04-09-2008, 12:32 AM I like this new item! Its exotic and pretty
thats mine LOL
-----------------------------
But vmk, please please PLEASE dont close! When I come home from school, I look forward to playing this awesome game. We all love vmk so please dont close.
Yavn, if you are reading this, THANKS A LOT!! :( :( :(
acefredfred 04-09-2008, 12:34 AM Thats bad. Disney don't like us anymore. With how many users that play VMK are mad and wont go back to any Disney park. Disney could fall to the ground!
gabyta 04-09-2008, 12:38 AM Talking about things we noticed.. look at this
I am sorry for the unfortunate announcement of VMK closing forever. VMK has also been a day to day life experience for hosts and staff at Disney. If there was something we could do about this inconvenient choice, we would. But simply, if we tried, we would more or less be ignored. Disney has made up their mind. I'm sure that if they see how many people have signed this petition, they will make something simliar to VMK, but their decision as of now is final. Again, I am terribly sorry to all of you gamers. We truly only wish for the best in hopes of VMK remaining open, but we also doubt the decision. Now, I must bid this petition signing adeu to catch the monorail before it leaves. -Yavn
do you think this is real? there are other comments signed by a "Yavn" or Hula, Lily, etc..
sonic99979 04-09-2008, 01:26 AM Ya from...
"I <3 VMK!!"
To
"I hat VMK!!"
These are real quotes LOL
And guys, please don't blame yavn he never wanted this to happen!!! It was DISNEY blame people from DISNEY ok so no more arguing about yavn!!!
gigarichard 04-09-2008, 01:32 AM It all makes sense now. The taking away of the park quest. The downhill host games. Hula has been gone. How the TCG still hasn't been released. The decrease in staff. The taking away of the Movie Rewards.
I have a feeling they have been preparing for this for quite some time and everything that will come out within the next month will all be the things we have waited for for so long.
MLKnCookies 04-09-2008, 01:37 AM I also noticed vmk wasn't the nicest place before the news. Now it seems that nobody cares about ranks anymore (rich or poor). Everyone is weeping together, putting our differences aside.
Tris-Remix 04-09-2008, 01:39 AM Well vmk goes up and down on rollercoasters, the big quest made people amd, they new itmes made people happy, now this made people really sad and i doubt it'll change :( save vmk peeps
bluegrl 04-09-2008, 02:04 AM i think we all saw this coming. i mean there have been many threads in the past about VMK closing although many of them were to have been rumors or just thoughts. its sad to see this happen. and to have been somewhat a waste of time but from the game many have gain some good friends even though its a virtual world =]
As a player who as stuck with the game for 3 years or so, i think this is one of the worse move Disney (or whoever is in charge) has ever made. They've just made over 5,000 people very upset.

I think this is a load. Yavn wouldn't really say that.

poloshia 04-09-2008, 02:27 AM Even though Disney is all about fun and excitement, deep inside they can be pure evil.
VMKFREAK 04-09-2008, 02:32 AM on the last day they should sell everything they ever sold whether it was beta or quest
bluegrl 04-09-2008, 02:50 AM CaptianLegoDude.
your right. i dont think Yavn would say that. nobody has that good of a grammar structure XD well maybe.
it sounds like a machine is saying what "Yavn" wrote.
Tokrok 04-09-2008, 03:37 AM Dude you should seriously send that to disney. That would make a difference - real proof. Especially if several ppl send it in
Chululli 04-09-2008, 03:50 AM It all makes sense now. The taking away of the park quest. The downhill host games. Hula has been gone. How the TCG still hasn't been released. The decrease in staff. The taking away of the Movie Rewards.

Exactly, I had observed this too, and thought the same thing. We should have seen it coming, and maybe even prevented it if we have done something sooner, but probably not. Maybe, just maybe, it got out and thats how those rumors were created..and also, has anyone seen him drop tiny hints in the last newsletter about this?

I was one of those people who started a thread. My belief was that VMK wouldnt be around in a few years (not months) due to lack of population. Janurary and Feburary really didnt have much to offer. Signing up in late December I didnt know what t be used to. I knew that all they were doing to rereleasing old stuff, which was a real boar to verteran members, and the population was dwindling. But then march came along and I saw so much released, so many events. They would have 8000+ people signing on. When I had made my thread I was seeing half that. It made me think that VMK was finally on track. Then april came and all these wonderful new items, and I couldnt wait to see what next week would offer. :Unhappy:
limitegal 04-09-2008, 06:46 AM i know! :( disney is suppose to make kids happy... instead they're making them sad.... what jerks.. 0_o
mrkwaz 04-09-2008, 09:01 AM another clue should have been all the free trials to their pay to play games. try these out, so you can see how great they are. what a way to get ppl involved, so they can turn a profit
UmmYeahOk 04-09-2008, 09:08 PM Thats not a clue to their closing. March being POTC month, April being Toon Town month, that was all just marketing. I see it no different than the Hanna Montanna posters they put up. They felt that if you like VMK you might also like fill in the blank.
Walt Disney's Disney isnt the same as todays Disney. Today its run and owned by several different people and they also have to answer to the shareholders. Shareholders want to see a profit, and if they knew that Disney was keeping something that was statistically unprofitable, the would demand a change.
Personally, I think they were waiting for the slightest chance of weakness to pull the plug, and all those quest hate mail did it.
GoofyGal1213 04-09-2008, 11:09 PM I never saw this coming at all , but i see maybe why they did this. Toontown and pirates online and even clubpeguin, you have to pay for those, so Disney makes money, but VMK is totally free so it was probly shut it down or make ppl pay because they want to make a profit. Like pirate month and toon month. all advirtising for other online games. ( not that i agree with this) but its what i think. i dont want to blame Disney but they did make thsi choice..
WisePrncessSophie 04-09-2008, 11:10 PM That's bad. Disney don't like us anymore.
Disney doesn't like us anymore...
That's a thought that I might begin to believe on May 21st if VMK goes dark. I am beginning to wonder and agree, acefredfred. Maybe they don't want to support superfans like us, which is very sad.
I am writing to Disney to ask them.
futureimagineer1117 04-09-2008, 11:57 PM I think, just for these last couple of weeks, they should re-release EVERYTHING, to give players a sense of accomplishment. Yes, it would be pointless, but it would make us happy. Instead of crying over the end of VMK, we should all live it to the fullet- waste away all of our credits, etc.

It totally agree maybe even if they could unlimited credits bc then all our dreams we wanted to come true would.BUt I do really feel Disney is letting us down a tad.
FrontierDonovan 04-12-2008, 04:03 AM I Believe They Have a good explanation.
