Just thought everyone might get a chuckle over the fact that certain people have now begun picketing to save VMK. Last I've heard, there were about 25 people...


Their Slogan? Don't Destroy our Virtual Dreams!

see now I don't get it...

I'd think a Virtual Picket would be more in keeping with the spirit of the thing.

And if Disney shutting down a virtual park is the biggest thing they have to complain about, they are actually having a pretty good day.

I think it's just a miracle that they all went outside! Next thing you know, they'll all be moving out of their parents basements!

I was going to say it's getting late, almost time for their parents to pick them up.

I play vmk. It's a nice relaxing break from real life, and its a nice remenance of the parks. But this has taken it too far. I think this is giving vmk players a bad name. I mean come on! I'm sad to see it go, but everything changes, and i'm at the point where i don't really care that it's closing. But picket lines at DLR is just too much.

Parents' basement! Waiting for mom to pick them up! HAAAAAA! My thoughts exactly. Porbably the same people who dress up for Star Wars Weekends.

You want a relaxing break from real life? 12 year old Jameson in a glass and Jenna Jameson on the HDTV.

So, this last round of boycotts.. the guy to be the best man at my wedding got arrested! I called him to ask how it went and then saw his picture on Mouseplanet.com. Don't worry, it wasn't the guy dressed like Mickey.

I'm proud of him.

He was picketing over contract negotiations Disney has been having w. its hotel workers. It wasn't VMK. If it was VMK, I would have been all over him! Very Happy
