    Re: Vmk Closing Forever!!!

    Some people paid real life money to get some of these items. like.. LEGALLY. And now its all going to dissapear?

    Isn't that like.. stealing?

    Thats basically the only reason i'm against this whole thing.
    Oh and the fact that I spent endless hours playing pirates to get virtual items. and its all going to go down the drain.
    how lame.

    Good luck. And remember, this was a higher-up decision, not just a VMK decision.
    An excellent link!!

    Exactly!
    I bought those packages at the Disneyland Resort gift shops that had like 3 VMK items in them; seriously those were expensive.

    I can pretty much guarantee that we won't be doing anything with this forum for a while. Our first priority will be getting the new Pirates forum up and running. After that... we'll see. But it certainly won't be a priority to shut it down any time soon. Like I said... this just happened, it could be months or more before we sort everything out.

    Did Disney charge you for these "items?" If not, and you purchased them for a third party, that was never intended to sell the items, you're out of luck. This is why buying virtual items is not a smart thing to do. If you can touch, you can buy it. If you can't, you shouldn't.

    Just saying - Disney did sell items in the park gift shops that featured VMK codes.

    If you bought them from Disney, they should have a disclaimer on the packaging. They, then, have no responsibility, because when buying the product, you agreed to the terms and conditions within the disclaimer.

    Re: Vmk Closing Forever!!!

    I am taking pictures of things people are saying about VMK and sending them to VMK. It's so sad this one girl was like VMK is the only place I have friends. I am telling VMK they would make such much money off charging and I would deff. pay for it.

    uh, yeah? I never bought any. But I know other people bought codes from disneyland or whatever. So technically Disney did charge us for virtual items/codes..

    i'm not sure if I understood your question completely.

    The VMK items sold in the parks contained real pins, not ONLY VMK codes. Thus, you are still getting the pins for the price. The code was just a bonus.

    There you go! You purchased a tangible product, a pin. As a bonus you got the code.

    Red Space Suit Magic was a free card you got from completing a free quest in the parks.

    I don't know. I'm just explaining the legalities. Disney is pretty much sue-proof. They make sure of that.
