I like the idea of actually buying rare items.


Who said they're going to do the same thing?



They're already off to a good start. Look at the big picture LooL. Re-releasing old valued pets? Come on now, I know a little better than that... starting off small and then getting bigger. Those pets were not easy to get. in fact, I got a Dalmation a couple years ago or so for about 500k... it took me weeks of searching to get it, if I would have known it was going to be re-relased, I could have waited and just spent less time and actual money on Yocash.


Only way to convince me that they won't do it is if they actually say they aren't, but until then, I won't be investing any time or money into the game as they're would honestly be no point.


It's more probable that it was an accident. Why not release the other discontinued pets, too, if that was their plan?

I remember the Viking's saying on YoWorld.com that they are unlikely to rerelease any old Zynga theme, but they may design their own version of some player favorites.
That being said,
I say let's see what suprises the Vikings have in store for us coming up.
I'm much more excitited about getting new stuff than I am in the old stuffl
Very excited indeed.


Very true! What ever they decide to do. I know YoWorld will be good!

They might have forgot about them, they got the top pets, the groovy ones and the labor day ones... those were definitely the most valuable ones.

Yoworld's economy is in tatters and people are hanging on to the past for all its worth. It is time to let go and embrace the future of the game.

Under Zynga's watch hackers and price jackers ran the yoconomy into the ground. People took advantage of the psuedo Laissez-faire economy that was birthed in Z's outhouse to the point that a culture of entitlement has become entrenched among certain players.

If Yoworld is to survive the yoconomy needs to be rebooted. In it's current form it is unsustainable. Something needs to give. If the economy is to be rebooted items need to be devalued. The only items that should not be re-released are collectibles. Everything else is fair game.

The pet store will have provided BVG with a small taste of the whinging associated with re-releases. If re-releasing themes, items, unreleased and short term released items is going to be done, it needs to be done in one foul swoop. You cannot re-release items slowly over time, this will only create a long term drama. All items need to be re-released at once without forewarning.

That way all the players will cry at once, they will go through the stages of grief and when all is said and done, Yoworld will finally free of the baggage of the past and people will be able to look to the future, a future of opportunity and possibility under management that actually cares for the game.

It needs to be done soon, during this transition period. Leave it too long and it will be to late.
Re-releases are good for the game, you need to look past your greed and virtual wealth. Sometimes you need to take one for the team, if there was going to be a time to do this, this is it.


AMEN!!!!!!!!!!! Best post I have read on this forum. :D
People do not realize that the only once who will be left in the game with this kind of prices are the same 1-2 thousand die hard players that were left standing after zynga sold this game. New people will never be able to afford any of this items & because of it, they will LEAVE this game. Without new players & new influx of people buying YC & coins from BVG company would not be able to keep this game... so all this pleading about saving this game so they can meet new people & socialize was useless.
Only rares in the games should be collectables & things like robo girl & robo boy & so on, things they you could only get as rewords. If it was in store Re-Relise it.


New people can afford if they buy yocash :) Why do you think the ones that don't want re-releases....don't want re-releases because they've spent tons of money on the game to get where they are. And i'm not saying this about all people but some of the ones that want re-releases don't have the items they want because they don't spend money on the game. And sure we've lost a lot of the older players because of zyngas mess ups. One being re-releases and another events going down. And many people got hacked or scammed and never got their items back. Now if people don't have anything to work for in the game. Then why spend a ton of money on it?

I agree with you Willow!

Yeah, I forgot about that one, they didn't remove that one, but the Poodle was definitely out of the store and is now back in it.

BVG has to realize that we have taken a lot of crap from Zynga, a lot of our hopes were given up and something like this is just too much. It doesn't take much to get anyone to quit the game anymore... it's nice that they saved they game and I seriously do think they have made some awesome improvements with getting the old stuff working. I just don't think Re-releasing is the way to go, it's not going to help.

It's almost like eating a dinner you absolutely hated as a kid, it went away and you thought it wouldn't be back. Well one day it surprised you and came back, it just makes you want to give up on eating dinner because you now know that there's always a chance that you'll have that same supper another time.

I agree with this post. Collecting rare items is how some people play the game, and if they lose what they've spent a long time collecting, then whats the point of continuing to play? People collect antiques in real life.. just as hey do in Yo. Also, the rarity will just pass on to the next item. There are ALWAYS going to be items that are expensive and that people want to get their hands on. Re-releasing won't stop that.

I'm sure whatever we get'll be great. I wonder if they'll redecorate the Casino soon.. :P

I'm saying that because I just lost 400k on Flip and Roll. :mrgreen:

If they re-release everything, no one would have a goal or dream in the game.

I like to have things to work for, not for them to be handed to me.. but that's me personally. :)

Re-releasing is part of why Zynga took a huge dive in the negatives with Yoville. And on that note, I'm just not even going to bother spending my money again on things that will just be re-released as I see you're already on that path. New items is what has been asked for, not old ones.

Best of luck to you and your game. I currently just don't think I'm going to be apart of it. Thanks for saving it, just not the way I was hoping for.

~BlUe DiAmOnD



The re-releases is hardly the reason Yoville took a hit with Zynga. Zynga's priorities changed and they made the decision to close Yoville because it didn't fit with their new business plan, that's why the themes stopped, they weren't supporting Yo anymore. Once the themes stopped they started with the re-releases as a cash grab before they closed the game.

With the amount of money floating around in the game, even if BVG makes new items, as soon as they leave the store they will rocket in price and become unreachable to new players who will not be able to afford crazy prices that older players with millions will. This game needs new players to survive.



BRAVO again!!!!!!!!
The reason this game took a hit with zynga was because the prices became unaffordable to most people, and that precipitated & encouraged hackers to create fake items & people to start selling fake coins & stuff. Zynga did not want to deal with it, it was costing them revenue.... not only that Zynga was not dealing with anything for the last few years when it came to this game... all they did, just keep releasing more & more YC items & collecting money from people for few VIP items. People already forgot we couldn't buy picture without paying YC for it. That is why people were leaving in droves, & it happened way before zynga re-relised anything. For 2 years I was watching amount of active players going down & down & down.

Absolutely.. but I agree with the idea that BVG probably didn't know the worth was so high. Might have just been a little treat without knowing the upset it would cause those that worked for months to save those millions. :(

Exactly, there is always a newer item that is hot, it just takes newer items to make it hot lol. Once new themes are released and they retire, at least 1 item will surely increase in value because a bunch of people missed out on it which will help new players get richer and the older players able to get ahold of the item. It's how this game has ALWAYS worked!

I never really got into the spending yocash to buy items I thought would be rare. I would buy yocash to sell yocash so people could get items they currently wanted in the stores. THEN I would spend those coins to buy rare items I had been wanting/hunting down.

I hope this was just a glitch that occurred when they reopened the pet store. If they plan on re-releasing stuff my wallet will snap shut faster than it did for Zynga. They are all hunky dory for all of the decorators and socializers but to those of us who play 90% of our game in trading and events adding to our collections it will be game over and contrary to popular belief there are a lot of people who play this way. Who doesn't like to have a little nest egg tucked away for a rainy day when you need coins? If everything is rereleased nobody will have any nest eggs left and good luck playing this game and making enough coins from just working at the factory.

.....and for those of you who don't buy yocash forget about buying stuff from a yocash dealer because there won't be any need for any
