    Default How many of you are on Virtual Family Kingdom?

    I have not been able to get on yet. How many of you are in?

    I pre-registered with Chescat, and a few others. Yet, when I tried to log in, it didn't do anything. I couldn't get in. Argh! So, I had to put myself on the waiting list.

    I sure hope I can get on soon.

    Well, today nobody can get on.
    Apparently a router died and they had to shut 'er down to install a new one?
    Or were you meaning something else altogether?

    I got in over the weekend but still a Guest.

    I think its good they realize they got more people than we thought trying out the game. Its better to do server and router upgrades now, then have us yelling and screaming that we can't do anything and just patch things.

    They appear to have the new router installed and are now doing what they hoped to do overnight on Monday.

    It is interesting that they have servers in New York & New Mexico with backup servers in Dallas. It is also interesting that they should have about 100 times the capacity that they had previously. It will be interesing to see the number of people over 10,000 online and the amount of lag when games, inventory and rides go online, as compared to VMK with fewer than 8,000 people.

    Hmmm that makes me wonder if the VMK game architecture/design could only handle up to 8,000 and that is why they could not expand (money pit...total redesign...all new...for 'only' 8,000 players at a time).

    SparkleMeTink,

    Many that had trouble logging in didn't realize they had to use the register button first.

    If you have not clicked on register yet, try that. Then you should be able to log in.

    If you've already done that...ignore this message.
    I'm not bad. I'm just drawn that way.

    Also if you have used the register button remember to use the right Email I know lots of people used a different email then their normal one to sign up since people were not sure about the game when they first heard about it.

    I'll have to try clicking the register button first. I tried all sorts of things on May 22nd, but nothing happened. So, I put myself on the waiting list for another tester spot to open up.
    - sigh - Hopefully some day my character and I will get in. I will try again tomorrow.

    Okay, I know I signed up for this. Did anyone get any type of verification email from VFK? Because now the main page says beta is closed, so if I can't login with what I signed up with way back, I guess I have to go on a waiting list.

    Right now, the servers are down.

    If you did not register during the beta signups, you will need to wait until at least the end of June to get on.

    As long as you signed up for beta with a character name and email address, you should be able to finish registration when the servers come back up.

    The registration button was next to the login button. They will ask you for the character name you previously registered with, email address, user name (not necessarily the same as character name. Actually this is a nice security feature, since if somebody tried to 'crack' your account, they would not know your user name from your screen name, so they would not be half way to getting into your character without the user name), age info (+/- 13 years), password, etc. Then you go and login using your user name and password.

    Hope to see you there!

    Tink - you're not missing much at the moment. It's just a few creepy looking characters walking around.

    Even though there are a few different public areas to walk around in, you can't 'interact' with anything yet - can't sit, enter stores, etc.

    How far can you get on the registration before it stops you?

    I was talking with VFK_Panda who was no help at all so I'll try to help you myself I just need to know where the registration problem happens.

    Do you get only to the first part where it asks for your email and title you chose for the game?

    If this is where the advice I would give is make sure your using the right email. I know that sounds silly but I know there were alot of us who used a different email then we normally use since we where not sure about this game to start off with. Also try a few variations of your title in case you accidentally spelled it wrong when you signed up originally.

    I finally decided to get on VFK and I'm pretty happy with the way my character looks. I'm all alone though! I need to find you all somehow.
