					<description>Yavn has a lot of nerve, and this does not make any sense.

As many of you know, Virtual Magic Kingdom was created and launched back in 2005 as part of the Disneyland 50th Anniversary Celebration. VMK exceeded expectations in terms of performance, and as a result we extended the promotion (that is, VMK, the game) well beyond the 50th Celebration
Me: Who cares?

Eventually though, all promotions must come to an end, so I’m announcing today that on May 21, 2008, VMK will open our virtual gates for the last time. You read that right: VMK was never intended to last forever - we’ll close the game for good at the end of day on May 21st, 2008.
Me: Ok.. You want to emotionally scar little kids because.. its a promotion? THEN DONT MAKE IT A PROMOTION? SERIOUSLY! This is the worst excuse of all time!

Now we understand this news may be upsetting to you but let me explain. Again, VMK was launched as part of Disneyland’s 50th Celebration in 2005 and the game has lived well beyond the originally intended time it was planned to run.
Me: Upsetting? This thing brought me to tears for  20 minutes which is a long time if your sobbing. And again, why keep it as a promotion?

In the time since we’ve launched VMK, we’ve seen many players come and go, and we’re hoping you will graduate from VMK too - in particular, to games like Pirates of the Caribbean Online, Disney’s ToonTown Online, Club Penguin and the upcoming Fairies and Cars online virtual worlds. We think you’ll find you enjoy those just as much as VMK - if not more.
Me: Yeah, games where you HAVE TO PAY TO GET ANY ENJOYMENT OUT OF THEM. And we want our friends back!

So you see, I myself have spent over 100 dollars on disney park quests just went down the drain.. BECAUSE ITS A PROMOTION?

Disney has me not paying for any game any time soon. Sorry, but i just had to say this. Thanks for the emotional scar, disney.</description>
