VMK Reminder

[Aggie]

This was really inspiring. You should send it to Disney and make them feel bad enough so they will open VMK again

*picks my chin off of the ground* sorry about that.
Wow..very nice.

Probably the biggest post I've done, took up 6 pages in a microsoft word document.

No idea how I can remember things. Some things just stick in my mind. Like my first Stitch Hat, I got it for free from GreenDev when he left VMK and it was in a Frontierland Splash Mountain Guest Room. The thread is still here on VMKF somewhere (DevTheGreat) and he gave other freebies to friends. I ended up keeping this hat until the game closed. I managed to aquire another one for free on the final day too.

It was simple, it had flaws, but it captured a broad variety of interests tied together with the enchanting lure of the Disney parks. I have tried unsuccesfully to summarize the essence of VMK to people that never played it. It was an enigma that could only be explained with personal experience. Your post embodies it in a way that those that didn't play might understand better, and allows those that did to appreciate the game again.

Thanks for sharing.

Thanks TooHip. VMK was a game which had many problems and mistakes (where's Priz?) but their flaws always were made up by the main game. If you wanted to be a pirate one day, you could. If you wanted to go to Africa the next, you could. It was Disney. Only Disney could do that, and only Disney could ever do it again.

I was kinda new and I got it from a quest and I thought it had no important value. Oh the early days. I hope you have fun with that crate! I think you said it was the forth one you got and you also said you were color blind... @_@ Happy New Year Stitch!

Yes.. color-blind-ness was a problem in VMK, those barrels, crates and flips.. ew. I was a big fan of red crates, and they were one of my favorite items in VMK. Thanks for the crate!

It's been proven Disney really don't care about the closure of VMK, but many thanks for your comment.

I appreciate every comment in the thread. Thanks guys!

That was one of the most coolest things Ive ever read. Thank you Stitch for taking your time to write that

What is so funny to me, I first started out in VMK collecting the rocket ship couches and making hotels too! LOL.

Thanks for being a part of VMK and this site too Stitch!

I finally got around to reading this, and it was well worth my time. As I read each of your experiences it made me think back to my own experiences of VMK and I really remembered how the game impacted my life.

There will never be a moment in my life where I reject the thought of wanting to log on one more time; to hear that music; to hear that train noise; to see the map suddenly explode and fill the screen with color; to experience the magic that only VMK brought, the magic that I truly loved.

I finally got the time to read it.. one of the longest post I probably read !
I should do something like you did sometime, Hopefully I can make time for it.

It was well written- I enjoyed reading your timeline.
Well you sure need to learn how to play baseball

My favorite part in that was: "If you loved VMK enough, you would support VMKForums."
Epic beyond belief. Seriously I gotta put that quote on a siggie.

Well done, StitichMad, well done.

StitchMad, you'd be great for a speech person. That was very powerful in what you have said. I love VMK enough, so that's why I support this forum, as the thousands of others do.

I must have been one of the lucky few who DIDN'T have to hit F5 to get in-game. Maybe it had something to do with playing later (9:00-10:00) or during school hours (12:00-3:30)

Ah, the memories. I never actually progressed very far until the last year of the game, which I regret now. I wanted those diving/space suits and car magic so bad :P

Is this an illusion or has krisco seriously just replied to my thread?

Fabulous to see you again! If you ever stumble upon this thread again, I hope you have a fantastic life too!

I'm kind of crying here... Thank you so much for making this thread /cries
This is moving, just so moving...... Thank you for making me cry. This is amazing... I've never been so moved over VMK in my life.
I originally left VMKF, but I regret it now that I read this post. I'm back. This is just so moving... This is amazing. /crying
