So true. We sort of know each others personalities by each other's "titles".
Would we be able to know each other if our titles changed? Hmm, some of us, I think I could identify.

Agreed, I've made some great friends here and would like to retain them if they were to consider a pay to play option. If the friends list is lost the only way to rebuild it would be the ability to identify them via their titles.

My favorite line on VMK was when a person would walk up and say,"Your rich", and I'd always reply,
"Yes in friends, the rest is all pretend".
Don't take this away VMK.

Why would they put so much effort into a promotion that they expected to end soon? I suppose I would pay to play, even if I must start all over again.

i love this game, but it would all depend on the price. they always have a way of overpricing things, and i have a really tight budget. $12/yr. would be acceptable, but i dont think i'd pay much more.

I would totally pay! A reasonable price would be $5.95 per month.

i think the most i would pay is about $10 a year. i do not fully believe in paying for an internet game.

but i was also wondering since disney has taken this wonderful game to play from us and all their other games are not nearly as advanced, has anyone found any other game that is comparable to vmk? i am looking for an interactive game that we can still chat with friends and play games.

I am looking as well. If you, or anyone, find a game that is kind of like this, not blood and gore, monsters and such, then please post it. Anywhere!

I hope we can find one. I feel like I am getting ready to move to a new city and leaving all my friends behind. Let's find a new game!

Besides I've come to the conclusion that I'm not getting caught up collecting merchandise in future games. Greed takes too much fun out of the game so I'll just be content to enjoy myself playing pirates and talking to friends.
I have to say, that migrating to a new server is very possible, I mean companies do it all the time to upgrade to better newer servers, it's called BACKUP and RESTORE to a new server. Same when you loose your computer, you go from a backup and you can restore it.

This would seem like a smart idea, wouldn't it? Clearly, what Disney is looking for is money.

They would only gain money by switching to a pay-to-play system, instead of forcing everyone to go out and find other things to occupy their time.

Vmk is the only game i would never pay for.
Its not worth the money, any way disney told us VMK was to attract people into walt disney world, If you had to pay well, Disney would get less people comeing maby. If you are going to own all the online games like me, it will be VERY expensive.
I am a big fan of disney, ANd i would love to help them but right now people who own all the games could not get the game.
Well, if it turns out you have to pay,Vmk should be if you have to pay:
50c - monthley
6$ - 6 mothley
12$ - Yearly
Just my opinion...

GIANT over pay for what Vmk is.

Tho, If Vmk was 3-d, better frame movements, I would buy it and change my mind.

Toontown, Maby? Little over priced, Great 3-D game and great movements, There no blood or gor, And You Defeat robots with pies 0_0 ( Cogs )
If your looking for no priced games, all i can think of is smalll mini games.

Even if they did add a pay to play option would the UK people be allowed to pay UK money? That's what I'm curious about..
