    Really? I remember walking around Disneyland and seeing vendors signing people up for that and giving out free virtual gifts in accordance with some kind of scavenger hunt.

    ...i wonder if my guy is still in that world...

    Really? I don't mean to offend you, but thank god.

    My little sister is on there all the time, i think that once it shuts down she'll hardly ever be on the computer anymore, which would be pretty freakin sweet.

    Well the dude said that they had originally planned on just having it up and running for the 50th anniversary and that was...2 years ago. It's possible that the support just wasn't there or they are creating something better. Now that I think about it, i didn't see any vendors in Disneyworld last month....

    I hadn't been on it, but I heard about it when I went to Disney World.
    I wonder why it's being closed down for.

    That was mean of Disney XD
    I mean I spent 3 years collecting rare stuff and they close it down. Lol.
    Yavn lied, he said VMK would be around for a long time. And he doesn't really seem to care that's it's closing. "After VMK closes you still get to play ClubPenguin, PotC Online and Toontown" or whatever he said.... you have to pay for those games! VMK was free the only free game >_> (well you have to pay for merchandise at DLR or WDW but that's for people who want to buy that stuff).

    And the pins/cards are still being sold at the stores. Cheap! x_X

    Well it was getting kinda boring anyway.I only got on to play the PotC minigame
