Finally LOL. They have taken out most of the words we want to use and kept the ones we didn't want. I guess know they have realized that they forgot the bad ones when "fixing" the dictionary this past halloween! LOL. I am so happy to hear that though. I was getting rather tired of hearing people asking things like that in vmk.


The end of an era, the beginning of chaos!LOL (can't doubt that there will be people angered by this however. LOL)

Im sure the ppl will find a substitute for mere and stuff like that, they always do..

Mere means small or insignifigant. Unfortunetely, people have been using this word as a substitute for "marry" and to be honest, these players who continually bypass the dictionary to their own ends are really making our lives miserable.

Why? We're having really good words being removed such as "mere" so that players don't abuse them. Essentially, our english skills are begginning to be hampered by the removal of these words. I felt very angry at the staff before, but then I realized, it's the abusive players who are causing the removal of these eloquent words.

Well, I hope people read this post. I think it explains the source of the whole "Lyke omgz!!111 tHE dIcTionary iz shoo meann!!!1".

11-15-2005, 10:07 PM
I believe that VMK_Zev only mentioned the word mere, he didnt say anything about removed boy friend or girl friend. Just the word mere.

I was in the room as well, he said it would slow down the taken thing.

I was in VMK_Zev's room this afternoon, and he said there will be big changes made tomorrow. It involves being "taken". He said they are taking the word "mere" out of the dictionary and making several other big changes but he would not say anymore about them. I am sorry I can't post a screen shot because I don't even know how to take one.

rcpratt3
11-15-2005, 10:31 PM
I was there when he said all that, but he also said the only ones that really know when and how is the testers. I feel bad for the staff because everyone always asks them the same questions and it is questions that they don't know the answers to. The staff is there to maintain the safety of the game.

Thanks ace for that sad but completely off topic post


I've been tempted to pull the following the next time someone asks me to get 'mere'. Just say, "What will you give me for an answer?" Accept anything they offer (even NPC pins) and then say "My answer is no." If they ask for the stuff back, say "sorry, you gave it to me for my answer which was no". Maybe then they will be less likely to ask. Now I can't do it in my CL account, but maybe I'll go fishing with my alternet player.

mere may be a good word in real life, but come on, have you ever used it in VMK. "The mere sight of :CastMem: excites me" ehhh... not so much. Its sad that the spelling and such has gotten so bad.. but hey save it for English class, I'm sure your teacher will adore it.:wave2: :wave2: :wave2: :wave2: :wave2: :wave2: :wave2: :wave2: :wave2: :wave2: :wave2:

one girl tonight wanted to do the boy/ girl thing with me. what's wrong with these kids.

I mostly agree with you.

My list of action that should be taken

- taken taken out of dictionary
- mere took out of dictionary
- step taken out of dictionary (as taking the next step will prob replace mere)
- mine taken out of dictionary (some people say be mine, and you can say this belongs to me instead of this is mine)
- something that pops up when you say friend right after boy or girl
- An anouncement on the VMK home page about how BF/GF and mer are not aloud on VMK

I am all for people being able to say mummy, da da, and pop though because I find that usefull when I need to talk about my parents, though if deleting these words is something necessary for VMK to do Im all for them :)

Even if VMK does take this action I think that people will still find ways to say these things, and we will just wear the dictionary to the bone if we keep chasing our tales over this.

Dr.Kumquatt

P.S. this is just my opinion, if you dont like it post about it, DONT GIVE BAD REP :wave2:

Everything that xfan said, except heart, I'd love to be taken out.

I just wonder how. We'll see, tomorrow. :)

I asked VMK_Zev about why 'beach' isn't taken out of the dictionary, and he said it is because of the tiki tiki room being in a beach setting and that they're working on how to deal with it when used as an insult.

Now I will never conquer my dreams of one day being VMK King and calling people "mere peaseants"

thanks. the day people celebrate the removal of words from the dictionary has finally reached us.

Honestly, I really don't see the big deal to all of this. The crazy 'married' people just stick to their rooms; not once has anyone asked me to get 'mere.' Really, who cares if someone asks if you're taken!? Just politely say no and move on with life. Some day, you'll be regret that word and all those who follow it being taken [<-- I rest my case] out of the dictionary.

that is so cool people kept asking me on one of my accounts to be bf/gf that i had to put taken in my signature but am not really taken.

VMK_Runo and VMK_Flamingo were both in a room I was in with friends and they said that the color pink would be added to the dictionary.

They way they said it *paraphrased*:

Flamingo: Runo did you tell them the secret?
Runo: If I did, it would not be a secret!
Flamingo: well as of tomorrow you can say what color I am! (she's pink skinned, like a flamingo)

So. There ya go.

Sounds like other words will be added/taken away too based on what I've read. :)

Night, all :D

I really wish we could have numbers back. I doubt we will, but I can still hope. Glad to hear about pink. I was confused as to what was so offensive about that color.

On another note, spbink you have the best trivia room! So well organized!

I am very excited to see what they have done. :) I have been sending in lot's of reports on that taken stuff, and hope that it worked. :) It will be fun to go to the street party music game and see how people try to get around what words you can not say anymore.

Who is going to be up early to test words?

Also good news about community leaders.
They have a back log of applications and as they need are using those old applications. When they get low then they will ask for more applications.

That was VMK Runo or VMK Zev who said that.

Yes! I'm so happy most of the words are out of the dictionary now. But I think they really should have taken away taken. Oh well, not my decision.

Ah well, happy that mere and baby are taken out. Any other words that are gone now?

11-16-2005, 11:03 PM
They didn't take out these words

-taken
-boy friend
-girl friend

That's It? That's the revolution of VMK?

I'm sorry to be negative but this is sad!

lostfanatic
11-16-2005, 11:49 PM
OK. you people are getting a little obssessive over this thing. you want girl friend and boy friend taken out. if you did that girl and boy would be taken out of the language too. yes, i'm glad about the mere and everything, but it ruins part of my experiment i'm doing with some of these words.

by the way, you need to stop worrying about other people and what they want to do. you can't control them. it's not your call

Wiggins
11-16-2005, 11:56 PM
VMK_Zev also I tested the words "baby and mere" and you cant use them anymore but for some reason you cannot use "ya" anymore...

You might not be able to say "ya" 'cause people would say "ya who" when referring to "yahoo" messenger.

But it is VMK's call! VMK has dubed this not appropriate for VMK since they got wind of it, and VMK wants it gone and so do most of us! I am a little upset they took out kk, it was a common, nice used word. I would not "experiment" with those words unless used for good reasons... We are not obessesing over this, it is a weird crisis that is affecting new players, making them do it. People are getting extremely weird about this from what I saw last night. The only thing my friend and I could say after that was, "What is VMK coming to?" It is sad that people do this, really it is... I hope VMK gets back to normality in the future. Part of doing this would be doing away with the BF GF vocabulary, which we are hoping for.

lostfanatic
11-17-2005, 12:10 AM
i'm not experimenting with the words, it's the use behind the words. you wouldn't get it. plus this thread wouldn't be popular if you didn't have something to say about this. people on this thread are thinking of other words to ban. i do agree with the mere and baby thing i mean it is a little creepy. just don't start singing praises people.

The Doll Face people have gotten around the dictionary again.

The talk about "do do" and one dude who was not a baby did this in a VMK lady staff member's room.

They now have "new worn" kids.

Now they take their kids to the doctor and play doctor in that the doctor gives "get well stuff" and "shots". One of the Doll Face people actually would not take the stuff and was kicking. One patient attacked the doctor.

I do not understand why we can use let but not letting or make but not making.

I know. This is getting way out of hand. I hate that they are finding more ways to get their points across. The doctor's office is not someting that belongs on VMK. Things that happen there are definitely not G-rated. This is a game for fun not reality. people have to stop.
