View Full Version : Disneyland VMK Fan Site Get Together?
echo42 07-24-2005, 10:37 PM I know besides myself there are at least a couple other Fan site members with Passes and/or frequent visits to Disneyland,CA
Would anyone wanna meet up for a VMK hang out?
If so, when works for people? I work all sorts of odd hours, but I always have wed free...
Lord Turbine 07-24-2005, 10:46 PM I vote we have a virtual hang out in VMK. That way, none of us has to go out of the way to meet up.
cheetahlover 07-24-2005, 11:00 PM yea i think it would be fun to meet in vmk! cause i am not going to disneyland soon
Becky 07-24-2005, 11:40 PM I could make 1 :D xD.. how does that sound?.. I'll call it, 'VMK Fan Site Room'.. er... or meet place or meeting room.. or.. er.. something :D I have too many skull rocks so i definitely can... ooo! I am far away form DL and 6 Hours away from WDW :(
PixelProphet 07-24-2005, 11:44 PM heartsdown is at disneyland like every weekend lol if you want to meet up with someone he is the man to talk with.
Wynsome 07-24-2005, 11:46 PM I vote we have a virtual hang out in VMK. That way, none of us has to go out of the way to meet up.There are always rooms like this around. If you have one fan site member on your friends list and follow them, chances are there will be an improptu meeting already or it will start shortly enough.
SallySally 07-24-2005, 11:50 PM Isn't this kind of the reason we aren't allowed to use numbers and dates in VMK? This is exactly the sort of thing that would allow people to meet in real life outside of VMK, which is considered dangerous.
Sure, I meet people in real life that I met on the internet, but that is based on an individual relationship. I'm not so sure we should all just randomly meet; some freaks might show up or something.

I understand where youre coming from SallySally.
I have done the in park tour a couple times now and have run into other fan site members there (though i didnt get their user names or anything)
i just thought it could be something that was fun to do for those of us who are at disneyland a lot and play vmk.

i totally agree with u i would never meet with some1 that i talk to online... cause they could be a weirdo or something i just think it would be fun to hang out in vmk which there are rooms so i will do that :)

This brings up an interesting point. How do those of us with passes like to spend our time at Disneyland? Because the park is very hot and crowded these days, I frequently end up playing VMK at Innoventions, where it is nice and COOL. Other than that, I'm either shopping or taking pictures, because I don't have much patience for the ride lines. When I play VMK, I usually have a whole list of "tasks" I'm trying to accomplish that I can't do from home, and I am not at my social best! However, if I happened to run into someone there from the game and/or this board, it would be a pleasant surprise. So, I guess I would prefer to leave it up to chance. :)
On another note, SallySally has a good point, and I had thought of it also. It would take very few steps from the anonimity of VMK, to real life meetings, once a player finds out about these boards. I do have concern for the children. Obviously, parents should be keeping an eye out, but many of them may not even be aware that these boards exist, and may have a false sense of security about leaving their kids alone to play the game. While I'm sure these boards are a safe, friendly environment, there is always the chance that someone could take advantage of them for the wrong purpose. For that reason alone, it might not be a good idea to set up specific dates and times to meet other players.
Any thoughts, the rest of you?
