I can't believe you really did this! I had memory boards made of my son who passed away, and with the push of a button, you just wiped them out. Unfreakinbelievable! I'm so f'ing pissed off right now at you PEOPLE!

One thing you just made VERY CLEAR, all the money i put into this game can just be deleted by one bad damn decision from BVG and you can clear out my entire game. I'm wasting hard earned money on PIXELS that I don't even own. I'm a damn idiot for investing money into NOTHING. Thanks for the wake up call!

How rude and ignorant.

This isn't right - I can't believe this is the only solution you could come up with - I spent millions of coins getting mine made until I learned to do them myself, and I have many many throughout my homes. Not to mention it's how I direct Yo's to Tour Sites.

I'm very unhappy and a little nauseous.

I am so, so sorry BookWorm . I was just at your tour earlier today. You’ve done so much work on your tour over all the years. That’s sad .

Ty I'm just so upset right now. I've used them in so many rooms .I feel like I'm doing nothing but wasting my time on this game anymore. There really has to be another solution. It probably involves their time and they don't want to waste their time but they sure don't mind wasting ours. Ty again for the compliment I just hate the fact that we have visions and take our time to create them and they just can come in and ruin it with no problem. Not to mention the fact that Dia was sweet enough to help and wasted her time. They talk about compensation . I don't understand why they think they can make up for all the time people wasted.. :hug:

This saddens me to the core.. Many creative decorators used paintboards as a tool to enchance their creativity.. No warning just one day you come on and years of memories gone..These are the players who stuck it out when many left, because they loved the game of decor and creativity and now that was taken away.. Punish the violators not the ones who used pb for what it was orginally intended to be, enhancement of deco and memories.. Sad Sad Day.. More people will leave now, those who loved the game for what it was designed to be...

EDIT: To all the Yo peeps on here complaining about pulling their VIP membership, go right on ahead and do it as that's your right. BVG has made it clear about the rules, not how about they go enforcing them. If you wanna pull their funding and force their hands to pull the plug next, be my guest as we'd lose more than just art...

If BVG cared about keeping their funding they wouldn't be making dumb decisions like this. They're shooting themselves in the foot. They are forcing players to be so fed up they stop playing, not the other way around.

At least this important announcement wasn't the closure of the game! The real danger of this paint board abuse is the distribution of illegal images, and I hope everyone can appreciate that and hope for a good replacement.

Whoever made this decision should loose their job. This is INSANE. A warning that accounts would be deleted if they aren't following the rules should have been done. Those paint boards enhanced some of my rooms and many others. You hurt everyoone!!!

YOU NEED TO FIX THIS!!!!

I checked my white/paint board. I could still see the word, Hi. the smiley face, I made. I can't edit the white/paint board. Maybe they kept the good artworks, got rid of inappropriate artworks.

I'm canceling my VIP subscription immediately and not spending any money on the game until you fix all if these mess!

They didn't delete those other paintboard topics, they merged them into this sticky!

That's the only way this would've happened. Someone's parent's lawyers probably got involved because of what their kid saw on a PB in game.
But, their kid can still freely gamble, that's not a problem because guess who makes money off of that :quiet:

OMG I just seen this and all my precious pictures are gone,nowhere to be seen only white squares!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I had such a beautiful painting of my daughter who had passed away and now it's blank!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I had Dia design MANY of my deco in rooms-I had more than 35 paint boards from people who felt the need to share their work and
I was overjoyed with all of them -each important to me
YOU SHOULD HAVE WARNED US!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
BVG you threw out the happiness team that you told us about now YO is a sad place today.

I have rooms that looked so amazing with others works and yes some were gifts and some I paid in coins for.

All you had to do was take away those who were going against the TOS -those accounts you should have closed and pulled those boards but noooooooooooo you decided to basically punish the rest of YO because of this?????????

I am heartbroken my childs beautiful face now gone and one can never never compensate for this-we should have been warned
SAD and really upset that BVG did this to many many people
years fo works just poofed-you didn't even give us the chance to ss these wonderful handiworks
We had No say no choice no nothing-WE matter our boards matter-our deco rooms matter but it seems nothing mattered today by doing this

Thank you Dia and others for your awesome beautiful works-my heart goes out to you who took the time to do this for us and sadly it is all gone
I cannot believe this has happened...steam coming from my ears and a broken heart as BVG did this to all of us.
I want my daughters picture back-how in the world would you do this BVG

We should be allowed time for ANY changes the company decides on,some warning
you didn't care about how this would affect so many players? it was a fast move even if you say you took some time to think about this
you didn't think about us who did not go against the TOS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
WE MATTER!!!!!! :heartbroken:

Oh, ok. I got the white board. I can edit the white board. I had to double click it.
