Save VMK! : VMK Blog

A Message from Madison

"We asked Madison if she had anything to say to everyone about VMK closing. She wrote and said:

"I'd like to thank YOU and everyone at SaveVMK.com for all your help in trying to keep VMK open. I felt really sad yesterday but tried to have as much fun as possible on the last day. I closed in my castle suite room because I was finally home. I waited a long time to get that room (thats all I ever wanted on VMK). I was so happy but then got really sad when that room came out for me to buy last week. I wish I had a longer time to enjoy it. I t was a very special place for me. I took lots of pictures of all my rooms and will treasure those memories forever. I wish disney would realize that this wasn't just a game for me and for so many others. It was a way for me to do things i can't do in real life. Just like the carnival games that came out yesterday on the last day. I would love to be able to play a carnival game myself in real life but I can't. I finally could in VMK and they made it so simple and easy for me. I built a Buzz Lightyear ride too. I could sit and ride without my mommy holding me. I just came back from WDW a couple of weeks ago and my favorite ride was Buzz. Can you believe this? Disney said VMK was a promotion that went way longer than it should. But it looks like VMK had plans for a Toy Story month with the release of these new items. I think that would have gotten people to go to the parks just to try the new ride. NOTHING will replace VMK but hopefully I can find my friends again in VFK or somewhere else. It just won't be disney and I love disney so much! I kept the same name- princessmadiro so if you see me there please say hi. Thanks again to everyone! My VMK friends are the greatest! Glove and hugs!  "Madison-princessmadiro."

VMK - The Magic is Gone - RIP - 05.21.08

   

VMK R.I.P. 05.21.08

NOW!!! Long Live VMK - Time Capsule / Frozen in Time Project!

Get all the details and updates at the DisBoard post here.

Would you like to have your feelings "frozen in time" so to speak when the gates close tomorrow night? If you do, please go into all your Guest Rooms and add "Long Live VMK", or the like, to the beginning of all your Room Names and if you want to go another steop further the Room Descriptions.

The room names will be frozen in some Guest Room database and who knows, the DIG might do market research on their other worlds (i.e. see which rooms were popular, trends, themes etc.) and lookie what they will find...little nuggets of our effort to Save VMK...frozen in time. A Virtual Time Capsule.

This also goes for changing your signature before the final close. (sniff).

If anyone has ideas on top of the above, please chime in!!!

And post here when you have completed your time capsule, to keep this guy bumped up and in plain view!!!

This project will continue to the bitter end folks! woot! (sniff on the woot...)

Farewell VMK

Please provide links to pictures of your favorite rooms to help create the VMK Room Museum.  Also if you have pictures of your avatar saying "goodbye" or trying to Save VMK, give me the links or include those pictures below as well.

This post doesn't mean I'm giving up the fight...it just means I'm collecting pictures to help document and chronicle VMK...
