I HAVE CANCELLED MY VIP MEMBERSHIP.  This is such heart breaking news. Without the paint boards, there is no game for a lot of people. The art is a big aspect of Yoworld and they are used in games on the game as well as for decorative purposes. Disabling our boards makes the game pretty useless to a lot of people now. As both a pb artist and avid seller, I have invested a lot of time into the game making boards. As a paint board artist, I help peeps create awesome rooms. You are taking everyone's creativity away.

I have a shop called Willow's Wishes. It is over 700 rooms and those rooms were filled with 1000s and 1000s and 1000s of boards that you have made blank. You have erased all of my hard work. It took me a VERY VERY long time (years) to build  my shop in the game.  Addition to the shop that I have, I have 30 gaming rooms and I also had Hand drawn art galleries of amazing pieces of art. This art alone can never be replaced because they were ORIGINAL pieces of art work.  One of a kind. 100 pieces of hand drawn art are gone.  I am crushed.

Disabling our boards when most of us (a large majority) have followed the TOS rules is so unfair. You are taking away something so important to many of us. Why should the non-rule breakers be punished for doing nothing wrong?   It is not fair that you are punishing all of your loyal players for the actions of some bad apples. Why sour us after having been loyal to the game for so long? Punish the bad apples and not the rest of us. Ban the people that are violating the TOS rules. Don't hurt the people who have done nothing wrong.

I have spent money on the game buying my large and medium paint boards.  I would like reimbursement of all the yocash I have spent on those boards.  You erased everything. I want compensation and to be paid for the 329 large paint boards, and all of the medium boards and I want coin compensation for the 1000s upons 1000s of small paintboards you have erased. I am still counting my medium and smalls.  This is going to be a huge task and will take me days to complete.  

You are crushing our memories. You should be ashamed of yourselves. Many of us had rooms made beautifully with art that were dedicated to our yo friends that have passed away.  It's like you punched us in the gut. Is that how you treat the people that you made money all these years? You are going to lose a lot more VIP members and my guess is that the end result of disabling those boards will be that people leave the game. Why would you bite the hand of the people that feed you? 

I would never ever spend a penny on this game again.

I think it's very unfair that you punish all of us for the actions of a few. It reminds me of grammar school, when the nuns would punish the entire class because one or two had acted out.

I think that you could have - SHOULD HAVE - at least given us a week's warning so that we could take pictures of them. I know there are many, many people who had gorgeous ones and roomfuls of them. Just having them "disappear" was unfair and downright cruel to people who've spent hours creating them.

I would like to think that this decision will be reversed and another solution can be found. I believe that you guys try to do the right thing when it comes to your players & I'm hoping that you will be able to do so once again.

*edit* ok it seems on the app or yodotcom platforms the boards are erased but thru fb they are still there but who knows for how long
also i dont like to use paintboards for decorating as i see it as a form of cheating lol but yes sometimes it adds character to a room
