Since I suspect hosts could work from home in VMK, they may work from home for VFK. They may not be paid staff for VFK but just be playing for fun as we do or they may be paid on a part-time basis and will continue with other jobs.
This is what I was thinking...
I have that same problem. It said someone took ForeverWDW already. I ignored it and went on registering like I had never seen it :rotfl: I dont know what will happen but I hope it was just a glitch. I was able to log in and play as a guest.
This happened with my son's account. I signed him up with that name the very first day we could "reserve" our VMK titles...hopefully it is a glitch. :goodvibes

Back when you first signed up, did anyone get a confirmation email? I know we didn't and I yesterday I tried many times and wasn't able to get past the log in page so I was worried that when I first signed up it didn't take or something?

All of the items currently in my room are "Pink Couch."
Has anyone lost their character yet. Mine disappeared after I left the house and then left the yard. I have come across what appears to be a crossroads, but can't seem to go anywhere else.
I am assuming that there are other lands, so to speak. If I ever find my character again, I will keep searching.

The rooms are cool. Stonehenge is huge...took about a minute to walk across the room. Very detailed. If you're looking for the same look and feel of VMK, this is definitly not it. But I look forward to seeing what else they release as they turn on the other features. It definitly has potential to be a hit as far as online "communities" go....For now, though, it's a beautiful day outside and I have the day off work...
ps - I wonder if they'll eventually let us make our own objects....

Yep I noticed the shadow thing yesterday, it seems once you come to the "edge" of a room, your shadow doesn't show up because there's "nowhere to put it", or at least that's what the game thinks ^^
moonwalk?
It seems when you turn a corner to walk diagonally with an object on any side of you, you get stuck in the moonwalk until you click somewhere else.

Well I snuck on at work and found Bug!!! Woot. I must say I saw a huge improvement from yesterday. I could see people, see my chat found a new room, All which I could not see or do yesterday. Yes it is very rough but I can see in one day how hard they are working. Might be a slower roll out. That is ok with me. I got my hugs in the game now to me that is what matters.
We are all walking extremely slowly but better than the lag on the last first night of VMK when we were stuck for minutes in one place.
I too agree you can not even begin to judge this game it is only 24 hours new.
I am prepared for the fun ride of this new adventure. And all the funny posts I am reading brings a smile to my face. Some comments are just to cute :)
remember when VMK opened in Beta we thought 600 was a huge number. So they are trying to do what most betas do not by the thousands :)

Blooch, please be patient! This is beta. It's not even a full-fledged game yet, it's in testing. Someone on another board said that as beta testers, we all have to understand that what we're doing is contributing to the game's development. I think that was a very good way to put it. What do we receive in return? Well...beta! ;)
It is in its very, very early phases right now, and from what I've heard, it's about where VMK was when it opened, too. A few rooms and lots of lagging and crashing. VMK had three years to become the place we all knew and loved, and VFK has had all of 24 hours.
Give it some time. I truly believe our patience will pay off and then some!

Why does this game fascinate you guys so much, its completely empty, once you leave your house it gets jacked in a matter of .5 seconds, they're behind on updates, and i really cant find anything positive about the game, besides the fact that my char looks like aengus :) but please if you can think of anything positive about the game so far, please tell me, because im starting to loose the last 10% of the hope i had for this game
It's called beta testing, and it's still in the working. You'll get your own
hair, clothes, items, games, less lag, your own room, being able to type,
and the ability to see, a ladder down from buildings :rotfl: all soon.
They put this together in 7 weeks and I think they're doing a great job for
something in such little time.
Plus they have 50,000 players to deal with during beta testing. They're trying
their best and I think they have excellent potential.
Now if the game is not perfect for you when it's 19 hours old then I dunno
what to say, no game is perfect when it's 19 hours old. :)

this is really lame, they said it would open 7am pacific time, its 11eastern time, so its either 8 there or 10 there, im sorry im bad at time zones, but i hope they pull themselves together but they're not really impressing me with being behind on updates, and not opening when you said you would.
what ever happened to our friend list and all those other things they said would be realesed yesterday?
This is a testing stage. They are probably working on problems instead of worrying about opening up on time or doing updates.
I don't think they really expected so many people to jump into this yesterday and they probably had far more problems than they expected.
how can you change your stuff, look at your inventory, view friends??
You can't yet. They will be adding that stuff later. Hopefully after they get the logging in, seeing people and chat problems fixed.
People need to give this time and a lot of chances. This is still really, really early in the game.

Good question.
This what I found on the About us page:
"We are a small group of technology specialists and engineers who primarily create complex internet applications for insurance companies and universities. Over the last 8 months we have also been working on expanding our expertise in the area of social networks and three dimensional online environments.
As part of this effort we have created a next generation virtual world which we had originally developed to use in business applications. However, we have recently decided to use this technology to create an online virtual world for families. This was motivated primarily because we could not find a virtual world similar to this on the internet.
Our commitment is to create a family friendly environment which will be something the entire family will enjoy.
The game will be free, just as you have experienced. We will not be accepting advertising, as we believe this is inappropriate when children are involved. We have put together a solid business model for this effort and you can rest assured that the Virtual Family Kingdom will not disappear in three years.
We know that you will have many questions, and we will be releasing information about the upcoming beta release on a continual basis, so check back often."
Well, without ads or anything, I really dont know.

Whow knows? Maybe they can go the way of Gaia. Have special items that can be bought only with real money (but traded to anyone). They have two monthly collectables that you can purchase for $2.50 each per month. They also have Gaia cash that you can buy and it allows you to buy things in the cash store. There are certain items available only in that particular store (or by trade to anyone) and you can only use Gaia Cash. Or everything in the other Gaia stores can be bought either by gold coins (credits) or by Gaia Cash. They also have a store of real items that can be bought such as t-shirts, pictures, plushies, etc. This generates revenue for them to keep the game free.

It's 24 hours old. I don't understand why people expect it to be a full-featured game like VMK, which had 3 YEARS to develop into what it was (and still had problems even then).
Nobody expects this to be a complete "live" game, but basic features should be working smoothly. This is in no way a Beta version.
VMK had a team of programmers working for three years, yes. This developer stated vfk was a WORKING model for an insurance group for eight months. Why does it feel thrown together in a few weeks?
I just LOVE to play with the new mini game they released.
Go to the castle wall, and look closely for a rock.
THE ROCK IS MOVABLE.
OMG the best game ever is moving a rock!!! :scared1:
Haha! Too funny!
It's called beta testing, and it's still in the working. You'll get your own
hair, clothes, items, games, less lag, your own room, being able to type,
and the ability to see, a ladder down from buildings :rotfl: all soon.
They put this together in 7 weeks and I think they're doing a great job for
something in such little time.
Plus they have 50,000 players to deal with during beta testing. They're trying
their best and I think they have excellent potential.
Now if the game is not perfect for you when it's 19 hours old then I dunno
what to say, no game is perfect when it's 19 hours old. :)
Again, see my response above. This is not Beta. Alpha, maybe..
Also, Beta testing is usually limited to a small number of players. 500-1000 would be a good test number, not 50,000!!! They should have never opened testing up to so many people. Full features should have been perfected before a Beta release. I don't see that any features have been perfected. If you can't see other players or text on your screen, it hasn't been tested well.
If you're happy with it so far, good on ya! I don't expect it to be much better in the future unless they go back and correct the basic issues now. Adding new rooms and items, games and friend lists is only going to create more complex problems for the developers.

it will be better when it has it's real release.
And have you noticed that all the things they said they were going to
do yesterday were not done? They are working very hard on the basic problems. :)
I agree they have a LONG way to go for this to be a massive game but it
does have some potential. :)

Well I signed my daughter up prior to the opening and when I went in today to register her it said her name was already in use. So now I'm trying to figure out what is going on. I can't believe someone else took her name. So if you see an Angelicasparkle it's not my daughter. I'm trying to come up with another name for her if it will even let me do this. She is going to be so upset if she can't get a character and has to be on a waiting list.
i have logged in many times and have refreshed but I still find myself all alone. Now when I leave the room and then try to re-enter, all the furniture is missing.
The only improvement i have seen since yesterday is that I can actually log in without much delay.

Yesterday I got that too, but it might be a glitch. Because when I bypassed the pre register which I THOUGHT I had not completed yesterday, I put in my user name (not my title) and my passwork and poof was on!

I sent a message to contact us but then finally was able to get my daughter's character in the game. The odd thing is that even though it said the character name was already in use it was actually her user name. I guess because her first name is so common someone else had that name. I just used the first letter of her name and it loaded the game. :)
Okay so now it won't let her back in the game. I'm getting so frustrated with this. I don't know what the problem is because my character has had no problems!!!!

Ok..what is the secret to "finding other people onthis game?" Seems like everyone is having different experiences here! I wonder if it has to do with the date you registered. I am walking around, but it never said I was a guest...mercy!:confused:

I have been Guest 342 the past two times I logged in, so maybe the number will remain constant. I had to refresh several times, then could talk, I can only see others who come in after me at the moment. But, earlier I could enter a room and see the ppl there. There are so many staff ppl about, I never saw this much staff at VMK.
If you see Guest 342 say hi.

Well I am beginning to think I am in my own little world.. I entered the cross roads and moved the rock to the center of the path.. Went off to visit the round table and upon my return to the cross roads the rock is still in the middle of the path.. I exited to enter the area where merlin's shop is and again returned to the cross roads to find the rock right where i placed.. All this time i still have not seen a single person, staff or otherwise.. :headache:
VFK_Groovy told us that at this time you will only see others that enter a room AFTER you have entered it. They are working to fix that, but what I did was go to a room, start talking, found there were others there but just couldn't see them. Also if you wait in a room a while someone is bound to enter, I was alone for a while they suddenly the room was full of people lol. I have met VFK_Groovy, VFK_Cat, VFK_Panda and VFK_Willa so far!! All the hosts are extremely nice and answer way too many questions lol!! But they said they are having fun and love the game!
Groovy also said they will be adding an Australia area and others too.
Oh on other thing, if you go in a room and can't chat, go back out and come back in, that usually fixes the problem, seems like my chat can't quite keep up with me so I have to go back and get it lol...

Oh my at the beginning of the week I was crying out of lost. Today I am crying tears as I laugh hysterically. Yes it may be a very slow start in VFK but it is so nice to have the laughter back. So nice to be sharing this adventure together well at least on the boards. So for all the lonely people I am sure your get rid of the invisible magic glitch. On the bright side how long did it take you to get invisble in VMK:goodvibes
What I found is if I hit control R to refresh. When I get into my room I say hi if I see words I continue on it now I do Control R again about 3 or 4 times then I can chat :)

This may have been discussed already (wow @ the topic length!), but for the people who can talk and see other players- were you Beta 1? I'm looking at the source code and the flash application shows up as a walk demo for me (i signed up for beta2). I'm wondering if they'll add another beta level to the multiplayer game at some point, or if its just luck for which version you end up in.
The similarities to VMK are very interesting. Almost like VMK was the only Virtual World they'd ever seen.
Oh! And And VFK developers? You might want to think about turning off directory indexing. :thumbsup2

There has not been emails to confirm registration. I suspect they are too busy with all the problems to get that set up. What does it do when you go to the play now? Should send you to the log in page where you enter your user name and your password, then enter the [Submit Query]. It will then send you into the game. Now notice that is says username, not character name. When you registered, did you by chance choice a different user name than your character name? Or maybe you have a different password then what you are typing now? If you don't type in the correct information that you used when you register, it just kicks you right back to the blank log in page, it doesn't give you a message that tells you aren't recognized.
Okay, so I finally got out of my room and have been able to travel through the different places...very cool...got to see Stonehenge even...a street with Merlin's, the wild west, etc. The only thing is that I don't see any other people anywhere. What exactly are we supposed to do?
You are having trouble with one of the beta bugs. Sometimes when you log in you can't see anyone else. I don't know if we are sent to like a different instance (like in vmk north-east) that is empty, or if the information is just not showing up in your files. I suspect the later since even if I stay on when this happens, nobody ever shows up. Just keep trying, log on again. Usually if I can see my own chat, then I know I have a chance that I might be able to see other people. If I can't, then I hit refresh and log in again. and again.
I *still* can not get logged in :sad1: I did the register for those that pre-registered and it still sends me to the login screen :confused3 I wrote to the *hopefully-not-black-hole* and am anxiously awaiting their response.

Tigger, I'm so sorry. Somewhere the information you preregistered with and what you are using now doesn't match exactly. Did you by chance use a different email than you normal do? Since back when we did it, the preregister screen never confirmed what you typed in, you might have done a typo then, and now that you are doing it right it doesn't match :-(
I sure that the *hopefully-not-black-hole* will eventually be able to get you corrected, but they have so many problems that it might be awhile. Rats! So sorry!

I'm in the same boat - I don't see anyone. (Dr-Jones, same as I was in VMK)
I was just able to find my way to Stonehenge (go through the villiage, strait past Merlins, and make a left on the green instead of going into the palace grounds gate.

To help make this experience more memorable, our graphic artists have created the "I Survived Day 1 Beta" shirt which you see here. Like the experiences we all shared, these shirts are destined to be rare. For everyone who got registered yesterday and also for those who register today, this "I Survived Day 1 Beta" shirt will be part of your wardrobe.

I would suggest to be patient, i'm sure you already know.
It's the second day.. so i'm guessing they have trouble as it is, and they're trying to add the wardrobe option. or whatever. :goodvibes
Amen.
For day two of beta, this is looking great.

Me (Guest888) and Guest598 could talk about 4 lines then we were silenced
yet again.
I saw another person with a guest# like mine, Guest777, he/she was invisible
(assuming it was a she because he/she called me a pumpkin head because
of my hair :rotfl:) I couldn't respond because I simply couldn't talk -_-

Someone had stated to wait in a room and others have to enter a room "after you" before you can see them.
Well I have been in the same room for about an hour, left to do some rl housework but I have no one in the room.
So it looks like another lonely day in the kingdom.

I guess it is back to playing the Wii, as I have used email addys, character names, and first names with NO LUCK at all :sad1:
I am happy to see so many friends have migrated over there :hug: Now if the powers that be, will email me back and let me know what I need to do :flower3:
Ok did you register again. it says sign in or register try register again might work. I had one character I signed in with the same first name and same password. For my hubby. I was able to change the sign in info this way. So when it says you name I typed in the character name and chartername tyoed in character name again. Give that a try.

Hey - I didn't mean it to sound like a defense to a hack - I know that's not what you meant
I just want to give them their props. This can't be easy stuff to do.
I'm looking forward to a wardrobe and shirt too ;)

Anyone ever watch Stargate, you know the episodes where someone would be in another plain of existance? They could see the people but the people couldn't see them. Well, I think we are like that. I am in another plain of existance than the rest of the world is. Sometimes I can see a chat bubble for a moment, other times I can see someone and they can't see me, most of the time I feel like I'm all alone in the world- and a mute at that. Anyone see the stargate that will get me back to populated universe?:rotfl:
