Have you thought about Quitting VMK for any Reason or Let's Save VMK

[Maleficent2]

Time to let your feelings be Heard what I'd really like is your ideas on how to make VMK a better game. This is hopefully a postitive post because I

I have not yet..... fooled ya didn't I....but I can see why players would for lots of reasons....boredom is one.

1. favoritism has to stop. I do not mind CM giving out magic or anything else but when events happen I do not want to see the same names always on the winners board there is over 2000 players in VMK spread the love.

2. Items/furniture, clothes, etc need to be added quicker and made so that if we want to give something to some one they need not be in the game...ie animal crossing you send it to them as a code or in an email.

3. Easier ways to earn credits


I have thought of many more but for some reason I am drawing a blank...so what do you think would really help make VMK a more enjoyable game to play.

We need to save VMK

This is a great game with a few quirks.

The bf/gf, wed, mommy/daddy, and the counseling room need to go--this is a place for ppl to share their love for disney--

The favortism is getting out of hand. I understand that the computer dude that sits next to you is one thing, but having a relationship with any forum? The developers need to be open minded. What about the younger people that can not post on a thread--they have no idea. This pins should be given out at random--not just to a select few.

The contests should be geared to all ages. Not just that select few

Internet Safety--more moderating the activity that is going on in the game--Disney sure does not need any bad rep from this game. The have enough on their plates with the two incidents that happened between Mission Space and Tower of Terror. What would happened if any of this virtual game made contact??--and yes it can be done---have seen AIM accounts given out by code

Game development/credits/furniture--improvement needed

I know there is more--this is just off the top of my head

I think there should be more VMK staff. When ever I am looking for them I can never find them. This could also stop all the wierd stuff that goes on.

And to earn more credits they should give you a daily amount. For logging on they should give like 150 credits.

 

[Cricket2]

Make the room list display all-inclusive if occupied and be able to search by user id. Add a permanent ignore feature.

STOP the clones! (I can't see this ever happening)

Counseling room?! WOW! I've missed that one... Sadly, I must say, I want to see what it is like! Of course, I'll admit the aforementioned rooms are a little strange to me...

yes -- for the break up's / cheating etc. . . .

I think it may have been called cheating room -- something like that

They actually confront each other in this game if they are online and have a divorce!!

I have not witnessed favoritism, just the same people on the high score boards and MrGenie winning every... oooooh. Now I get it. I once had the honor (would you call it an honor?) of playing Pirates with Wynsome. The newsletter said we could buy spells at It's A Small World Imports but they lied. Then I never got my no judge pin !

 

[HollyJoy]

Quitting? Nah, I enjoy the game too much. However, I do agree with just about all of the points you made! We need more ways to get credits, and ways that don't take so long! lol

 

[RadioNate]

I agree about increasing available credits. I also don't like the magic rules. For example I can't play pirates. It crashes my machine EVERY time. So I'll never be able to get the magic for winning.

The favoritism is a big thing for me. I was in a room today by chance with Yvan, he gave everyone who begged and whined Cursed Storm. I don't have it because of the code glitch (which BTW he said they aren't planning on fixing or letting you trade) but since I didn't whine and beg about it I didn't get one. I almost asked 'when is the favortism' amongst the inner circle going to stop but I didn't since I was in one of the fav's rooms. I was sure if I sad something I'd get the boot.

I feel like there needs to be more rewards. I've played fireworks a zillion times but I can't break 200,000. I get my 40 credits but nothing else. Same with Jungle, you get 20 credits for just letting the thing run but even it I work hard and do well I get nothing more than 20.

I like the contests and events but they need to be fair. Yvan talked a little about the pins for not being judged this afternoon. He said if you weren't in your room 100% of the time duing the contest hours than you won't get one. One guy said he was like 3 minutes late and was basically told too bad. Another player said the game kept logging him out and again he was told too bad.

 

[Cardinal]

That is just HORRIBLE. So what if I couldn't make every last minute of the contest? People have lives outside of VMK! I spent more than 2 hours in my room!

 

[goofy4dizney]

Actually, RadioNate, he didn't say too bad to the person that said he kept getting logged out of his game during the judging. He told him to use the "Contact Us" form on the VMK home page to report it. They are working on getting all the invisibility pins out to the people who did not get judged, but haven't completed them all yet.

And as I said on the other post, the people who were in the room today with the developer were just everyday players like you and me, not the "inner circle". Anybody was allowed even, even *gasp* guests LOL, and anybody could ask a question, as long as they waited for their turn. You had to be seated. No standing, no crowding. If the person chose to ask about cursed storm, it was fixed for them. If you did not, then yours was not fixed. I chose not to ask, and therefore, like you, mine was not fixed. I could have asked though, and it would have been done, so I don't see where the "favoritism" is coming into play in this particular instance.

Also, about improving the game, I sent in the suggestion that the VMK cast members no longer ask trivia questions for prizes, but rather award them randomly, perhaps to the 50th person to enter a particular room (in honor of the 50th).

This would be much more random, and it would actually give the kids a chance to win, because the question thing all comes down to who can type the fastest, pretty much, and that leaves out 99% of all the kids I know! LOL

 

[Cardinal]

I'm pretty mad today...
No pin.
Game disconnected.
Twice.
No pin.
I just installed Astro Blasters (I love the version at WDW) and it doesn't work.
Did I mention I didn't get my pin?!?

I disagree because that involves luck and I don't have that either.

Want a list?

Want a list?

No, not really...I don't feel like attacking him. He always gives me pizza when I'm in VMK. I feel no need to attack...
