I have a question, VMK has said they prefer people not use the quest kiosk to trade credits. The fan site seemed to always abide by their wishes. Like their request not to post the Thanksgiving Quest answers for instance.
Why are you allowing these credits trade threads?? Perhaps I am missing something, seems out of character for the forums.
:easterchild: :easterchild: :easterchild: :easterchild:

your right, i think the mods should post a new rule prohibiting trading credits. You have a very good point.

But they did not 'prohibit' the thanksgiving and yeti quest, the forums honored their 'request'. Don't want VMK mad at us.

True, but they never said that it was against the rules, they just don't want it being used a certain way.

Yes, that is the point. They don't want credit trades, and those are the threads I am talking about. Please read the whole thread!
They said they don't want them, but they can't do anything about it-

Q: Is it against the rules to use your Quest Kiosk to transfer credits from one Player to another?
A: VMK would prefer that Players only use the Quest Kiosks as they were intended: for creation of Quests and rewarding of prizes. Never saying it's against the rules or that players can't do it.

It says they do not want you to. Ask any staff, they prefer you don't. How about we abide by their wishes.I'll ask Phinny or Hula later, they will know. Until there is a direct quote from staff saying they don't want it being done, the forums have no right to stop these kind of threads. And no, I'm not against you, I value my credits and would also prefer people to not trade them off like this, but I just want to get a story right.

The VMK Values states as follows:
You Must NOT:

* Use ANY hacking, scripting or editing program with the game.
* Steal other Players' credits or in-game belongings.
* Describe * acts to other Players.
* Pester people who don't want to talk to you.
* Swear or use * graphic or racist terms.
* Ask other Players for their passwords, e-mail addresses, telephone numbers or other personal information.
* Type your password anywhere except in the Disney registration and log-in pages, or in the Contact Us section.
* Give away, trade or sell your VMK Character.
* Break the law in the game or talk others into breaking it.

Where in the Values does it state, No trading credits?

VMK staff do not perfer taken, but it does not go around the Values, therefore it is not bad, just not perfered. Staff do not perfer the credit exchange between accounts, as stated in this new newsletter. This does not mean we can exchange credits! It is not bad.

Unless staff add a new rule to the Values, we are free to exchange credits.

oh, and for the first post - i think that since this is still trading, and it is the trading category, it is allowed.

This is correct. It isn't banned from VMK and therefore not banned here. As long as the threads containing this topic is kept orderly without a lot of whining or other annoying posts, they are allowed. If a time comes that VMK disallows such usage of the quest machine, then we will follow suit. All requests of obtaining credits in this manner should be placed in the trades forums.

Taken is one of the few topics where VMK and VMKForums.com differ. They don't like it, but accept it. We don't allow discussions of it.

"Personal Ads" - Creating posts announcing Toon/Player weddings, engagements, boyfriends/girlfriends and/or toon/player "dating" are not allowed due to the inappropriate nature the posts usually end up taking. Children are present on the site and the G-rating is enforced in all areas.
Toontowncentral.com and VMKForums.com are not dating services.

VMK would prefer that Players only use the Quest Kiosks as they were intended: for creation of Quests and rewarding of prizes.

This is a polite way of VMK Staff saying they do not like something. I think people are being warned that for now VMK Staff is turning away and not doing anything about the abuse of the quest machines. Be warned that someday soon they might start cracking down on the abuse of the quest machine.

Using mules to get answers and best times is wrong and could eventually be added to the list of things that are on the list of forbidden things to do. The transferring of credits may also eventually be added to that list.

Remember that VMK made these cute toys of ours and can modify them or destroy them. They could adjust the quest machines to require a minimum number of player playing the quest for the prizes to be awarded, minimum lengths that quests must me run, and prohibit of running a quest in a friends only room other that for testing purposes. May be they could stop credit sharing by stopping the awarding of credits as a prize.:easterchild: :smile_easterbunny: :hoppy_easter_bunny:

This si probably just a nice way of vmk saying that if you get in to one of these trades, and are scammed, they will not help you.

when i am doing muling i want to do the quest kiosk but i dont have one

hmm.. but maybe they will make it able to trade credits with trades, maybe they make that option

There are many things that VMK prefers that we not do. But, It does not mean that if you do them, they are against the set rules and values.

As stated, it has been stated that they said they prefer that we not use the quest kiosks for this purpose. But the newsletter did not strictly forbid it.

VMK also prefers that we not trade for codes. But we do it anyways. Look at all the trade threads for codes.
Trading credits is risky, just like trading codes. There is the risk that 1 of the people could be scammed and lose all they are trading. But if the trade is between people who really know each other or between 2 really respected traders, then everything should be fine. In fact, trading credits is a little better than trading codes. There's still always a chance the the code will not work. :)

The possibility of scamming is the main reason why they prefer that the kiosks are not used in this way.
