Come to thinking, i think the closing of VMK Central was the cause of vmk closing down or the sign of vmk closing

I 100% support this diabolical plot.

-I could write in to my school newspaper about it, and of course, they would print it, because I'm awesome. And they almost always take any article I send in, anyways.

-I could start a petition. I know tons of people did this, but a lot of my friends in reality played as well, and one time, I started a petition for a recycling committee at my school a while back, and looky here! Now I'm the head of the recycling committee!

-I could repeatedly e-mail Disney. Of course, I've been doing this since we found out that VMK was closing, but I will make them even more strongly-worded than they already were. Maybe we could even boycott a bit...

-I could call up good ol' Oprah Winfrey. XD That would be taking things to drastic measures. LOL

We can make a difference if we work at it.

I say if you really want to shine the brass of one's ability, make a PowerPoint presentation and use bar graphs and many illustrations showing the financial gain that Disney wil get from putting VMK back on the market. Disney being a company as well as the Happiest Place on Earth needs to see statistics and a valid reason to bring it back. We all know what it meant to us, but you need to see it through the eyes of a company representative at Disney. It has to benefit the company as well as the customer. No bleeding heart pleas will ever get VMK back.

This is an excellent idea. In order to do things like this we'd need some hard data - such as the approximate operating costs of VMK, how many people (minus mules) played on a regular basis, etc. Then give an approximate figure for what they could charge per month or per year and what their profits would be. So it would take some work....but they would be more likely to take it seriously.

I agree, spacerightsummer! That is a approach that I have never seen before, and though it is a long shot, is worth trying. If we work as a team, maybe ge somebody who really knows bussiness and can help us on that front, we can have a pretty good powerpoint up. Also, getting a good graphic artist to make Disney attracted to it wouldn't be bad either. If we give them statistics that actually make sense, and aren't just made up, it may just work. In a few weeks when my summer starts, I am totally in this, if anyboody else can bring something to the Powerpoint.

Did anybody come up with an idea like this before? It is just brilliant.. It is taking Disney's values as a business and feeding it to them.. and it really may work.

I'd be happy to do what I could to contribute. I'm no "expert", but I have had to do some promotional work before and am used to making PowerPoint presentations.

I'm also starting to do some research.

To make sure they can take it off the network cleanly, most likely.

I say we dont email or call them, I say we show them we are still here! We rampage there other games you CAN type talk on. Club Penguin for example, or D Gamer. Both of those I KNOW you can say VMK. If we bombard them on THOSE games we will show them something. Disney recently launched friends for change, and that is supposed to encourage us to work together. Then we should work together to show Disney that we matter, we are still here! That they cant just stomp on us like dirt, just because we didnt pay for a game.

Why doesn't everyone go on.."Habbo Hotel" and everyone should meet in a room and dress the same. Then we all could go to a public place and line up and keep saying; "We want VMK!"

Or something similar. n_n

I wouldn't perform anything hostile like trying to clutter up their games and their games' chat boxes. Like I said before, we want to be very mature about this and approach this from a business standpoint. Performing guerilla tactics like this is extremely counterproductive if you plan to be taken seriously.

And, on a side note, Kumiko, Habbo Hotel is owned by Sulake, who had no choice in the closing of VMK

Well...if my parents were on a talk show, I would think they can't choose the topic...I mean, the hosts don't choose the topics. The writers choose them. And as a host it's hard to change what's already been written.
PS-Good Idea!
