Kind of like how they told me I was getting a tshirt, dvd, etc....and still don't have it.
I am almost at the point of just saying VFK S _ _ _ _ ......four letters to go.

LMAO, Bright! :roflmao: :rofl1:
On a serious note though, I am sorry that nobody has received any of their real items from VFK yet. :uhuh2:

Well I decided not to get the real stuff cause it was going to cost me shipping cost like 17.00 or somerthing but I am glad I decided agaist it since no one has got anything yet.
NotAZoo:
Yeah no real stuff yet, but I did get my virtual item. I mean at this point just give me another damn horse or two and we'll call it even.

Actualy Zoo, don't forgget the membership was supposed to include a "Free code for a piece of furniture every month" and first opportunity at new items (verbage that was removed after only certain people got this opportunity) So while we did get some of our virtual items we did not get all as promised. I like kurt also was under the impression I could share the horse with my daughter, which is not doable. At this time, none of that is really even the point. I know several of us decided as a group that the benefits they listed would be worth the price if the game worked out and our loss would be nominal if it didn't.
It is true that Kurt had little more then an implied verbal agreement - probably not enforceable and we are only hearing his side but I felt posting it was valid and informative about the situation. It does not change my opinion on VFK, nor of Kurt. As it turns out the game has not been as exciting as many would have hoped but it still has potential in the future if it reaches full development. Their main issue continues to be over promising and delivery of promises. I can't begin to make a list of all the unfinished work they have and promises they have failed to deliver on. After 6 months of being open (4 months after paying) The fact they opened early can no longer be used as an excuse, nor can they hide behind good intentions any longer. They need to get focused and deliver what they said and get a regular event calander to stick to. If they deliver a few more of the games they have promised (where is the market game due out a month ago?) a few of them are bound to have some entertainment value. I really do look forward to see what they have to offer for Christmas, but I felt by this time the game would have taken hold and be on the right path. The demise of gadget waqs not movement in a positive direction for the game itself.

The biggest issue for me not withstanding the lack of promised virtual goods and abilities is the lag. This game eats up my memory so I have to log off every 20 minutes.
So it makes doing anything of fun rough on VFK. I do like the items and the variety. But again still having problems using them to build is another downfall for me.
So I think until they fix the lag issue this game will never take off. I thought the maze was a great idea to get people to get back to VFK at least every hours rofl.
But I am so unimpressed with their lack of follow through. Guess they better get their act together because when new fees come up there will be a lot of abstainers this time.
It must be coming soon because for the first time we have a members only cloth tab. Makes you think.
