Well I have been playing VMK since June and is it great...
But this is really just a advertising device for Disney...
But it also has an educational value to it...
But not enough to be on the review...
VMK seeks trained server specialists. Must have great amount of patience..
Disneylands first MMORPG is beautiful in it's look, fun in it's quests and games, but needs some serious attention paid to the increasing amount of lag from the 3000+ players online at most times. No doubt their server specialists are trying thier best, but the frustration of crossing fingers that the initial loading or updating completes while guessing how long your session will last before seeing 'vmk has crashed' and then having to wait several minutes to hit the (not) ok button. Perhaps I should apply...
Despite the lagginess, VMK shines as a true representation of the Disney Spirit! (was that more than 200 words?)
i only played on this game for 1 year when it shut down i got mad so mad my head burst off and vfk is a copy cat it sucks and i swear id sue disney world and or buy vmk backif they dont i prayed night after night for it to open again Vmk was living in a community and hey colon its a promotion not an add to disneys 50th aneversity and they left it on more than they expexted every good promotion must have an end if u still want to keep on go to vmk pals
There's quite a few things parents should know.
Sex: Other kids create rooms where people can "Get a bay be" Guys ask girls to be their girlfriends. There's never anything explict, but still.
Violence: None.
Language: Language is the worst. People "dictionary dance" all the time. I've been called a "beach" for no reason. There were more instances involving other words, but I forget.
Drugs/Alcohol: None.
Commercialism: Basically, it's one big ad for Disney.
Social Behavior: People may try to scam others, and as I said before there's a lot of cursing and some sexual content.
Educational Value: Teaches kids about earning and saving money for items, but the risks outweigh the eduactional value.
Shame VMK ended but there is a new site ready to rumble!
Lovely site, shame it ended :( But there is a new site and it is 100% more fun! It is called VFK or Virtual Family Kingdom. VERY educational as there is quests about the world's and other planet's history! Very safe, and it is lovely as they bring out new clothes and gifts almost every month! :) See you soon on there!
This website is sooo fun. Go on it and you will laugh your brains out! Go on it now once you see this. If you dont register then you are out of your mine!
This game, I have to admit, kept me entertained for a couple weeks. However, after a while the extremety of the "word filter" and the behavior of other players got too irritating to make me want to stay. The thing that really disturbed me about this game was the way it is completely gender-oriented. In other games (such as Millsberry) a character can wear any type of clothing, whether they're male or female. But in VMK, there are girls' clothes' and boys' clothes, and you can only have the "right" one for your gender. Since when is it any of Disney's business what kids wear? Since when did Mickey Mouse start furthering conformity? I just don't think that feature of the game is anywhere near ethical.
I've been playing this overrated game for over a year now, and once you play it, you go "I'm not that stupid, this is an advertising game". Come on disney, give the people a break. You make or remake fantistic new rides just so more people can come every day.You have thousands of people come every day and they waste their money. Ok,i'm getting off subject. All i'm saying is don't play the game and then say to your parents "hey mom and dad, can we go to disney world next week". Be careful, this an advertising device.
Ok, lets say its not for ALL ages. People do this boyfriend and girlfriend thing. Kind of like e harmony. and this mummy and duh duh thing. They get mummys and duh duhs. yeah.
I think VMK is really fun but people try to say bad words but they cant. Yes VMK is kinda advertising but i think KIDS and some ADULTS would like it to!
This used to be my favorite website when I was younger! I remember when I was so upset when I found out that VMK was closing. Anyways.... it was really fun while it lasted! I wish it was still here. It was ten million times better than Club Penguin! Rest In Peace, Virtual Magic Kingdom!
virtual magic kingdom - vmk - is a very good game. u can meet with players all around the world but u can't give any personal info and can't curse. the only thing is, it's very addicting
