Well, it was early Summer '05 I booked my trip to WDW for November. (hurricane season). I didn't exactly know what rides were at WDW, so I went to the disneyworld homepage and there were SO many VMK ads there. I clicked on one of them. Next thing I knew I saw that old cheesy vmk video (the same one in my profile), and it kinda drew me into making an account. VMK wouldn't load after I made the account, so I just gave up.

In late summer '05, I was at Disneyland and I saw the VMK booth and asked about it. The CM said to go into innoventions to see the game in more detail. And so I did, and I tried to log in there, but it didn't load there either. So I made a different account there to see if it would work. It still wouldn't load.

When I got back home, I went to the computer and put in the first account, and it didn't load. Luckily the second account worked for me . Once I got into the game, I went into the town square, and then into the forbidden temple. I saw a guy standing on the bridge and a girl that was stuck behind him. The girl said, "Dude, please move it." I was thinking that all the players talked like the players in the cheesy video.

and that's how it all happened. The first account never worked, and it actually got deleted at some point.

But just a little curious - shouldn't I get the born in park badge if my character's account WAS made in the account, but it wouldn't work there?

I play WPASADI on here and got put on the team with five VMK players so of course I had to give it a try.

LOL little did you know when submitting that WPASADI app you would soon have two new addictions

Well one day i called my sister Peasy and her daughter answered the phone. I asked my niece, "What is your mom doing?" And she said playing a game on the computer called VMK. Well i asked some questions about it and when i heard it was Disney I immediately tried to log on with my dial-up connection. Needless to say that didn't work. After 20 minutes of staring at the VMK circle trying to load i gave up. Then when Peasy found out in August of last year that i was going to Disneyland in September, she had a gleam in her eye and started to explain a little about the in-park quests. Well one thing led to another and i got DSL and the rest is history. So I owe it all to my sister Peasy.

I have discovered VMK on two separate occasions:

1. July 2005: I am looking for a Virtual Disneyland that I can go through just to pretend that I am there again. I find this crappy online game that I think a couple of bozos created, and give it a shot for five minutes. Bored out of my mind! I signed on as Emery.

2. March 2006: I'm trying to find a Virtual Disneyland that I can walk through to try to ascertain the specific route I'll take when I get back to the Park whenever I can. I happen upon VMK. Wow, an online Disney game that takes place in the parks? Have I ever tried this before? I signed on as PirateEmery, and I go on every so often to buy the Tomorrowland pins (first weekend pin set that I bought the most of). I then discover that VMK has these date-based items/events. I suddenly become addicted.

Nearly two monthes later, I remember that I had played the game before and as Emery. Ecstatic with the prospect that I may have unwittingly bought a super rare item, I try every password known to man. Finally, the Vault clicks open and.... nothing. Only item that it had that I did not was the New Years 2006 pin.

So, I was introduced to VMK for the first time, at two different times.

Hi everyone,

I just wanted to know how you guys found VMK...My mom found VMK in the summer, two years ago, on the back of a cereal box and showed me, and of course...I didnt bother to do anything about it. I started playing VMK in November that year though, because I saw my friend in real life playing it at her house...(Now that I think of it, it's pretty rude to play online while a friend is over...)

So, how did everyone else find VMK?

I found VMK by some of my friends, I didn't want to join it in the first place but now I play it like almost everyday

My mom found a thread about it on the Community Board. I kepy on begging my mom to let me go on. We had MSN back then. It wasn't fast enough. So, if MSN was fast enough I would of been on VMK for much longer. Then we got Yahoo! and it was much faster. I tried VMK then and it worked. I started in October 2005 and I've been playing ever since. Needles to say, of course I wasn't able to buy any Christmas or Halloween stuff back then.

I was on a tamagotchi website, and someone had the link in their signature. Now that I think about it I wonder what happened to that site. I suppose that gives you how much of a vmk addict I am hehe.

Same here. I also started because my friend in real life played it.

*this is random but I think I'm friends w/ you on my account SnowyFox, lol
