They're not paint boards. They're white boards..

yes thanks. I know that now. They were in a room mislabelled paintboards lol

Sorry I realized someone already commented after the fact.

BVG, do you realize that some of us paid some bucks, sometimes big bucks in yocash or coin to artists to make these for us. THAT WAS OUR PERSONAL PROPERTY. It is just like you coming into our real homes and stealing from us things we bought.

There are 19 other pages of people saying the same thing. They DON'T CARE.

Mark-

Thank you so much but it's just what I always expect.

This is absolutely ridiculous, I paid real money for the cash boards and so did my friend that I made them for. This was uncalled for and absolutely the last straw for me. You have taken a game that I, and many other, have enjoyed and pumped real money into for years and years, and absolutely destroyed it. I will no longer put one dime into this game. You need to give us our money back on those boards that we paid cash for!!

"Undoing" it would be difficult if not impossible, so the damage is done. I just don't think they found the best solution, even given what I think to be their legal liability with the abuse (and it is SERIOUS). I'm guessing they took the fastest path, and not necessarily the best one.

I read in Discord something on these lines and if that is the case well action had to be applied. Sad WE all have to feel the crunch of a hand full of azzwipes!

They should have given us a chance to erase any boards that weren't up to BVG rules.

This should have been impossed long ago. I agree some uncouth people ruined it for everyone. Not spending another dime on this game.

I am struggling to see who the azzwipes are here. We KNOW what BVG did, we don't know what the others did, but we DO know that ANY explanation is not enough to fix what they have done to their paying customers. I too am now very very scared of spending anymore money here. Who is to know what they will do next. I have already spent thousands over the years.

If this is a way to ensure you lose players, then you've hit the nail on the head. It will make shutting down the game much easier if no one is playing any longer.
BVG, it's a bad decision. A few bad actors should not dictate the policy for the entire player base.

no problem! I had realised this even before the first helpful comment. I hadn't realised I'd made the mistake, Senior moment.

How do you suppose you are going to "compensate" me for that? It is unfathomable to me how you could punish EVERYONE for whatever a few might have done. This is the biggest misuse of authority I have seen since I started this game. I really just cant believe that someone, or more than one person actually thought this was a good decision. It didn't take into account 99% of players. DUMB MOVE! MEAN DECISION!!!!

I am sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo sorry for you! I go to FB to see my loving friend who passed and I am so happy I can see his lovely face. I can't imagine what pain you are in today. This is just so, so cruel,, and I am the biggest lover of Yoworld in the world, believe me, but this was such a horrible thing to do to people.

Does anyone here know how to play City Girl anymore? It was also a great game, not as much as this, but it stopped using Adobe it said and I cannot find any way to play it now. Please send me a message here if you do know how.

It took me a while to process this news

another great idea, BVG, huh?!

I find it really hard to believe that a gaming company, which works on a global scale, with players spread all over the world, of different ages and ethnicities, would make such a decision based on SOME player... in such a drastic and sudden way... it's really hard for me to believe this... but if I really have to accept that all my money and time spent making paint boards for me and my friends and friends of friends went up in smoke like this, in the time of one blink...then I DEMAND the numbers of people who have broken the TOS...and I ask exactly which rules have been broken...because in all these years I have never seen those paint boards used in such a way inappropriate nor offensive...and if it were me who broke those rules.. I AND ONLY I... would be the one who should be punished..not all the others!!!

but I am convinced that there are other reasons behind it...perhaps linked to those new backgrounds that you have put in eju2024... (any of us paint board lovers could recreate them in a few minute) but this is just a personal idea, I hope wrong...
the only certainty is that (I repeat) a respectable gaming company does not act this way, and you are no longer that type of company for at least two years, this is just the last straw to me !!!

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I take this opportunity to thank the people who offered to teach me how to create paint boards when I wanted to learn... and those who revealed their "tricks" once I finally understood how to make them...(you know who you are)

THANK YOU FROM THE BOTTOM OF MY HEART..my respect for you will never cease!

I was waiting on you! U and I have nearly the same amount of boards! It's sickening

I know. We suffer the most because we did art unlike anyone else has, 3d art. I'm simply at a loss for words. Somebody on YW told me they heard to give it 2 weeks so I will, but if this is not resolved and the paintboards are not brought back, I will be quitting. Creating art gave me purpose on YW. I was so upset when they were erased that I pulled all my boards from their rooms...lol. That was probably a mistake but that's how upset I was. I'm still upset though. If the issue that brought this about was image violations then I highly doubt that our images will still be there when/if the paintboards are brought back. They were most likely erased permanently. This game can't afford to lose any more players than it has already lost. This could very well be the downfall of Yoworld.

Yes of course, they are aware of the players or person, and yes, we the paying customers deserve an explanation sense it AFFECTED every playing in this game, some way more than others. All I know it had to be bad enough to remove "ALL" white boards at once. From what I'm reading we will know soon enough, but that doesn't take away the disappointment form those who have dedicated many days making those amazing rooms. Who knows maybe there is hope and they will redo the boards that are TOS acceptable. Sometimes drastic measure has to be taken to avoid any lawsuit. And if we are all honest there has been some gross sh*t floating around in there. And do we have to be reminded that there are underage players that can get ensnared easily for some coins. So, we don't know and have to wait and maybe in the end it will all make some kind of sense. I feel bad for those who put a lot of effort and money and I hope there will be a reimbursement, or fingers crossed HOPEFULLY the clean white boards that are expectable can be opened back up.

My dragon sat on the mountain . I want it back

I had made a room for my MILO.
ALL Gone, along with so many other memory full rooms..

yeah the 3d art can never be replaced nor can hand drawn or anything else they removed. All the 3d art being gone does hurt my soul a little bit though lol. All the time and patience needed to do them.

I agree Amma, I have treasured boards from Joee! So sad and cruel. Breaks my heart!

Straw I am so sorry. He was one of a kind and very devoted to his friends.
