what did you do your first few days of vmk?


i walked up and down main streat and bug ppl for weaks how to get stuff for my room i joing on the fist day
 
i remember i didn't know how to get a shop's items on sale to come up in my shopping list. i would ask people "how do you get furniture?" and now that i know, i feel so stupid. i think i played games when i first joined (my real life friends don't play................ that i'm aware of).
 
I wondered why nobody in there knew how to spell, even when the words were in the dictionary. I'm wondering that again now.
 

I bugged people to tell me how to get furniture. Thanks to the kind players and CL's that helped me
 
I walked around making random friends, looking at the stuff in shops, and discovered the wonder of NPCs. And then after that, I blew all my starting credits on barrel chairs.
 
The first day I joined was I think.. (Not sure on this..) May 12th. I then started trading and got richer and richer. I also made the teleporters availble to just about everyone in the game.

if you are talking about me i never bean good at spelling only if you saw my spelling a year ago win i started to play you be rofl not stop its was bad
belive it or not vmk is how i learned to spell most words
 
My first day was spent walking down Main Street. I found VMK Central and did the Hidden Mickey search. I still enjoy walking down Main Street...
 
I remember I would just sit on a bench in Central Plaza and listen in on people's conversations because I was too shy to talk to anyone back then.
 
Yes I would just eavesdrop, too - I found hidden mickey hunt the first day and did that - I didn't know about helping boards so I just blundered around on my own. I remember looking at the Frontierland ad (it was not open yet) and wishing I could go there! I was so happy when Frontierland opened! I loved VMK right away, though at first I could not play any games - even Jungle Boat! Ha ha. It was so fun. THis was long ago ....
 
I remember I first created a sad, sad room, LOL. It had about three chairs and light. Then I started to play the games, but I was horrible at them, so I double teamed with either me sister or my dad. For pirates, I would shoot the cannons and my dad who direct the boat. Then in fireworks, I would shoot the fireworks, and my sister would change the symbol. I was pathetic :rotfl: . I mean, it would not be so weird if a little kid needed the help of a second hand in these games, but a 16 yo, LOL. :rotfl2: :lmao: :blush:



BTW: For anybody who is not very good at fireworks, starting off with another person playing with you is not such a bad idea. It helps you practice doing both the switching of the symbol and the clicking of the fireworks, but not at the same time. ;)
 
I remember being confused as to why everyone was going around saying, "There's won over there" and "There are too in here" when talking about hidden Mickeys. Then when I finally attempted to say the word "one" I found out why... :rolleyes:

Yeah.. It is annoying that you can't say numbers. I hate their word filter.
 
Aaah... the days of guest-hood popcorn:: . I remember the week I joined, which was basically walking around the public areas and staring at the tomorrowland ad :surfweb: And then the first costume sold- the mission space ensemble. I remember not being able to buy pieces individually, you needed to buy the whole thing for a whopping 2000 credits. The sorcerer hat and tomorrowland sub pin were also on sale. That was probably one of the first days the "specials" tab was added in each shop. Rockets, the tomorrowland 8/9 pin, dark cactuses, and of course, green flips were buyable. A working animal skull shower was a luxury. My first mule was created in beta- Hera. I still use her to sneak into secret zeta meetings (just kidding! :joker: ). Couples, babies, and show-offs were not a problem. The pirates game back then was way better than the new one :rotfl: Beta was a happy place. :goodvibes
 
my first days there were halloween decorations on main street and i guessed tehre was a halloween event that went on since it was november. and i had no idea how ppl were playing songs in the street party room so i just went up and it said i had to mix a song first. eventually i figured it out. and i cant believe i wasnt aware of the christmas event. and i wondered where ppl got magic. well i did see the snowman magic for sale but i didnt have enough credits for it but i wondered where ppl got the others and i kept asking where to get magic and ppl kept saying codes and i asked what codes and ppl said cereal or something. i still didnt get it. and i wondered where ppl got there stuff that wasnt in stores. and there were alot of other things i questioned. these were all my second character. i was only on my first character for a day and then i fogot the password, sadly. and i had to make a new one. i will never see her again.
btw my hands are sweaty right now for some reason. well it is hot but my hands never sweat in hot weather. :rotfl2: :rotfl: :lmao: :happytv:
 
I think my first day was walking around, wandering VMK. It was happy because it was beta. There was no huge mess in VMK like there is now. I am really sad because I missed the parade, also. :guilty: Anyways, I would just wander around, looking for things to do. I loved to see VMK in beta! When I lost my stuff, it must have been around last August. I was a "poor" person and was in need of credits. I could not believe I did taken, either. But then I found the DIS. (Thanks to debsangels and TheWolf!) So, it is good to remember back. :)

PLEASE don't be sad that you missed the infamous "parade". Trust me on this. :)
 
The first time I joined was last July, walked around for a bit, played some games, then quit.

A couple monthes ago, I found this game called VMK and decided to give it a shot. Only a week ago did I realize I had created an account before! :rotfl2:

Haha! Same here. I had an old account I created before with rares and beta on it. It was gone. I couldn't remember the email or anything to get it back.
