Scam Alert
All Quests, whether they are official VMK Quests or Quests made by Players, are free to everyone. Please don't pay anyone to do their Quest. If a Player is asking for items before you can join their Quest, please report them and then leave their room. No prize is worth being scammed over, and VMK won't replace these items for you. Players caught charging to participate in Quests may be banned for scamming.
Do you have a VMK Quest Kiosk?
Please be sure to check out the FAQs and then check out the tutorial that walks you step by step through the process.
Quest-building Tip: Does your Quest require Players to use a certain Magic Spell, play a Game, or anything else that perhaps not all Players can do? Be sure to include that info in the Quest description.
Who (or what) is Push the Trashcan?
Push is a Character who will pop into VMK from time to time. He can visit any room; he can talk, walk, sit and dance. Unlike NPCs he doesn't give credits. He can't accept Friend requests or Trade, so please don't ask. But do ask him to dance!
What makes a Guest Room award-worthy?
Guest or Game Rooms that stand out show originality in concept and design. It could be a use of conventional furniture in unconventional ways, the use of a theme or color, or humor. Game rooms that get the nod offer a new game idea or a new twist on an old favorite. In all rooms we look for room owners who welcome everyone with a smile and show a willingness to answer questions about their room.
Check out this week's Best Guest Rooms and Best Game Rooms.
Q: Can I use a program to help me enter my Codes faster?
A: Scripting, which includes any programs or utilities that use scripting capabilities to perform rote tasks (ie: entering codes), is a violation of the VMK Values. Any player caught using ANY scripting program may be banned. We allow exceptions for Players using a scripting program to repeat helpful texts used to run a game or assist players, provided the tool is not over-used to the point that it floods the chat window and makes it hard for others to chat.
Q: Is it against the rules to use your Quest Kiosk to transfer credits from one Player to another?
A: VMK would prefer that Players only use the Quest Kiosks as they were intended: for creation of Quests and rewarding of prizes.
Q: I let someone borrow my Turn Into Bat Magic to do a Quest and now they won't give it back. What do I do?
A: Whenever you let someone borrow something, either in VMK or elsewhere, you run the risk that they won't give it back. This is not a scam, and VMK won't replace the item(s) for you.
Q: Why aren't you accepting Community Leader applications?
A: Currently we don't need any more Community Leaders. When we are ready to once again accept applications we will announce it right here in the Newsletter.
Q: I can't find some of the Quest items because I don't know what they look like. A: We're including a picture of all the items to make your Questing a little easier.
