Exclamation VMKF Policy about online petitions

Since the announcement about VMK's impending closure, there have been a number of posts linking to online petitions to get VMK to change their mind. While we understand everyone's desire to "do something", we have been closing these links for a variety of reasons.

We have found at least one petition that was actually harvesting email addresses and passwords. Others have advertised other sites, which is against our policies. Still others have advertising on the petition page which are not G-rated.

Therefore, in an effort to be fair, we are not allowing ANY links to external petition sites. We know some of these sites are fine, but given how many petitions are popping up, we simply do not have the time to sort through them all. If you run a petition site - you may contact the moderators directly to discuss your situation, but we do not see changing this policy for now.

Instead, we encourage all our members to contact Disney directly. We will be posting a list of addresses and other contact information, and we encourage our members to share their letters before they send them to help create well thought out and personal messages that may sway Disney's decision.

These are tough times for many of us, including the moderators. VMK has meant a lot to everyone, and we don't want to see the community created in VMK or in VMKF to fall apart. Please bear with us as we try to adapt to rapid changes, while still trying to protect all of our members. Thank you for your understanding and your cooperation.

Thank you Admins and Mods for this new Policy. I can now have a break from seeing Petitions. If we want to do something either make a Petition Thread. Or you can contact Disney online services. Once again Thanks for the new policy!

ok, whatever, but I have better things to worry about right now. I see what you mean mods, it's just very tough on everyone, and it is frustrating when you are stopped in your tracks while trying to help. I believe there is a main petition, signed by over 150 people. I think this should be put in the news section, with the link (You can check it if you want, its safe), and keep that as the official VMKF petition. If we want VMK to stay open sending letters to Disney isn't going to get us very far. We need a petition!

Come on. Help us out!

There are too petitions I have come across that are completely safe. One has more than 600 signatures on it already. I saw Host_Hula on it as well.

Keep surfing people and hope you find them!

I would like to see that. That person isn't Hula. Next time anyone sees HOST_Hula ask her if she signed a petition.

Yeah, I noticed that these petitions for VMK to open back up haven't worked at all yet.

Dude. My friends have a petition and they have over 9,000 people with their real names on it. Including a comment if they want to. They made Channel 6 Orlando News..
150 people wont do anything. No offense. But this petition with 9,000+ people signing and over 203,000+ hits on the site.. just might.
2229 people have voted "yes" they would pay to play VMK.

She has joined, take some time to look at the site instead of making assumptions. So have VMK_Wolf, and HOST_Lily. HOST_Lily has already confirmed being on the site. What VMK veteran (and belive me, these are the only people that joined this) would intentionally impersonate staff? Rethink your facts.
