What orange ears?
They are one of the prizes in the Toon quest.
What orange ears?
Well gosh. I'm really glad I logged on to Dis before getting Pirate_Apples on line.... If i had logged into VMK and seen those ears, I would have "click, buy, you bought" those ears in a heartbeat! But now I'm afraid if I get them, I'm going to be causing the blood of some fine Dis'ers and VMKers to boil and I don't really want to do that...
...seeing so much anger here about them sort of took the wind out of my sails. I was not around when the staff wore green ears, so I don't have those same memories which perhaps gives me a different perspective than those who have been playing the game a long time.
...My first thought when I saw them was how many players who have never had ears, now have a chance to buy them...
Hugs to all of us who are dealing with the very likely chance that we are losing our little Kingdom forever.
The orange ears are great too.
This "might" be the end of the game? I don't know where you've been the last two or three weeks, but it kinda is. So what if they release them? They're one of the most requested items to be released, and the staff haven't had them as uniform for quite a long time. Maybe they weren't ever intended to be sold, but the game wasn't intended to last this long either.I find it truly disgusting and very disrespectful to staff that they have went ahead and released probably one of the most exclusive items in the game. Green ears are more then silly Earth Day hats, for the longest time they were recognized as the staff ears and it is not only sickening to me to see ten in each room I enter but its also a sign this truly might be the end of VMK. To all the staff members to who had to wear the green ears for the first 15 months of the game, this is truly a slap in the face to them. Staff costume pieces were never intended to be sold in game nor were ever intended to be owned by players, if this is the way VMK wishes to end our time here, point me to where I can purchase my Club 33 Guest Room, until that time comes I am boycotting the release of any and all Staff Only Items from a respect stand point, shame on you for doing this VMK.
Thanks for sharing this perspective Princess. It is a good point that this is the first time that just plain ears of any color have been for sale. I had not seen it that way and am happy for you and the others that are happy by this opportunity. Although I stand by my opinion that green ears were a poor choice, I can see how the opportunity to buy ears brings that excitement we are all trying to find in Funville at the moment.
And hugs to you as well. We are all having a tough time, aren't we? I think I really really thought our letters and phone calls would somehow matter. Seeing the green ears go for sale today slammed me into the reality that no one that has the ability to reverse the foolish decision seems to care. Hugs.

Go ahead and buy them if you want them. I have two slightly different perspectives on this, and I'm feeling both of them.BlueSneakerGal said:Well gosh.

This answer breaks my heart more than any perceived slight against VMK staff. Someone who was just happy to have some green ears is made to feel sad because of other people's anger .. its all sounds very reminicent of the silver ears fiasco, where people wearing them were taunted as cheaters.
Aww,don't cry Pooh. The responses of Princess Wendy, Aengus, Disney Dreams and Shaymojack have convinced me to go ahead and get my ears. Like others have said, I think nerves are raw and there's a fair amount of walking around on pins and needles.
The Green HSM outfit is *blech*
