I am getting fed up with VMK... why oh WHY do they have to wait until later in the day to load new one-day only stuff on like the birthday pins?!
I was on VMK from opening yesterday for about 3 hours, and the pin was not loaded.
I could not log on after that bc I live in the UK and was otherwise engaged in the evening.
So, obviously I MISSED yesterday's special pin :mad: :mad: :mad:
I am so annoyed. Surely they ,must know some people cannot get on all day everyday?!!? :confused3 :headache:

Anyway, if anyone has a spare or two they could kindly trade or gift then I would be so grateful :)

I was just lucky that I got home from my trip yesterday early...


SERIOUSLY, YAVN! THIS IS WHY WE NEED YOUR NEWSLETTERS!

Okay, I want to make it VERY clear that the following is in no way directed at PirateEmery, just a general comment about what he has said.

Any of us that are Disney fans know that 7/17 is a special day. Special days usually mean special stuff. If I could have placed a bet on whether or not something would have been released yesterday, I would have done so in an instant. We know something special happened last year, therefore, there was a good chance at something special happening this year.

Do we really need a newsletter announcement for every 1 day released item that happens? I think that's being a bit harsh. Surprises are part of what makes life fun.

Thank you VMK for making the VMK Birthday 2 pin so easily attainable and for making it tradeable so we can help out friends who weren't around yesterday. We appreciate it!

Final Thought - If you KNOW you are going to be gone from VMK for any period of time beyond a day, may I suggest a buddy system with someone who "covers" for you and buys you things so that you never miss out.

But there are some that didn't know that the 17th was something special. Including me. I agree that surprises are great, but I would have to agree with the Newsletter thing. I would have liked alittle heads up about something that would have be sold for only 1 day. But thankfully VMK was nice enough to have it out for more that 1 day. JMO :)

Understandable. That's where surprises are fun.

I agree that there is nothing wrong with a heads up, but I don't know that a newsletter update is always the answer. A little splash on the home page "Don't miss your VMK Birthday 2 Pin today only!" would be just as good.

But thankfully VMK was nice enough to have it out for more that 1 day.
Happy you can still go buy it. For those of us who bought many knowing from VMK history that it would only be here for 1 day, "thankfully" and "nice" are not the words. LOL But - that's the vmk gamble. And believe me, I have friends who bought WAAAAAY more than I.

Mine too. :) And we are all welcome to ours. Thanks for sharing your view.
