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?)

Vaguely Entertaining But Sends a Bad Message
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.
