"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"
This is directly from VMK.com, and it's stated a couple times that it is NOT an April Fool's Day joke.
Pity. I'd just gotten back into it and was really impressed with what they've done.

Re: The end approaches
Tue, April 8, 2008 - 3:44 PMYou know what's funny? I had logged in yesterday just to see what had changed, and they killed off my character! They asked me to start a brand new one from scratch. -

Re: The end approaches
Tue, April 8, 2008 - 3:47 PMYeah. I lost my original betatest character. They put a three month trigger - three months without logging in, character goes "poof".
It really is a shame - there's a LOT of potential in what they've done, and the "rides" and such you can build are a great toolbox for custom content. I'd just figured out a linked ride system turning from log flume to Alice car and had plans to keep the silliness going.
Not so much any more.
