I started noticing that I disconnect about once an hour. I noticed it by accident at first, and now I watch for it - if I get on at noon I will get disconnected right around 1pm. I was mentioning this to some people, and turns out not too many people knew about it.
Just thought I'd post it here, to let you guys know and see if you noticed something similar. I've started watching the clock, and if it's coming up on a disconnect I warn the people I'm with that it's time and I'll be right back. Sure enough within a few minutes I'm outta there.

We can almost set our watches to when I will be kicked off of VMK at night. Between 12:04 AM and 12:10 AM EST, pretty much every night. Poof Gone!

So, I guess that begs the question "Do you sign on every night at around 11:04 PM to 11:10 PM?"
Hmmmmm...

Maybe the hourly disconnection is Disney's way of telling everyone there is more to life than the computer.

It might be something with the sever? I don't know but it always happens to me. Sometimes it is good when your trying to get into a popular room, disconecting is a good way to get people to leave and keep the line moving.

No, actually, I sign on about an hour or so before that. Perhaps I have a 2 hour timer on VMK? :goofy: I suppose I am creating more questions than answers on this thread. :mickey2:

I just hit refresh or arrow and start over.
I think we all expect to be disconnected regularly.
If I leave it is that I am on a VMK Boot.
It is annoying. I got to get me a watch and time this.

Hmm... Good theory. O.o I'll watch that next time! But what about when you sign on and it kicks you off right when it's done loading? Or is that just annoying randomness? -.- Lol. Although, if you just reload after that it's fine. But good theory on the once an hour thing. ^.^
