GOD BLESS YOU ALL

I have seen paintboards were freaks of nature had photos of there p..nis idk if it was there own or something googled and that makes no different of how f..cked up that is players needs to understand once for all that this game is legal to play when you are what 14 - 15 years old correct me if im wrong but these kids should not be seing that type mentaly brain dead of art from freaks who plays this game , bvg took down these boards from all of us some say its bcz of a lawsuit othwers has said its bcz there was political sh..t on there boards , one thing i totally agree is these boards wasnt ment to be used in that way these boards was ment to be drawn on but we players took it to a higher level and found nice cartoon and background photos from websites and by using a program that had nothing to do with yoworld bvg or anything in thuis game we made em through that program to use em in the game 99% of the photos was great creative and funny but that 1 % wasnt , many sitting now complain about that 1% how about we all start to think about these photos came into the game in first place , that program is actully the bad guy here not the photos bcz if there wasnt any program then there wouldnt be any photos like that 1% in the game .
Even that i hate what bvg did to all your photos of memories of family photos etc. or to your creative way of decoration rooms , we still have to remember that we took the chance and made em or payed others to make em for us. me you everyone who did that actully broke the rules no matter how we set it up we did . the problem is more that bvg didnttook actions years ago when we started make these photos through programs thats were i start to think why didnt they why did bvg let this go so far before they took actions bcz someday this would end by a lawsuit or copyrights etc and as photographer i know the law of using others photos even they are on google search engine its still the person who took the picture property . i had a photo of the snoop dog dre and eminem together on 6 paintboards that was against the rules of yoworld and against the copyright of the owner of the photo .the only way you can use photos from websites search engines etc is to go to the free photos websites and download the photo from that site else not .i know millions of ppl around the world using google daily to find a happy birthday picture or goodmorning picture to use on facebook and so on but still it is actully not legal if these pictures photos aint taken from these free photo websites .

Maybe bvg got a lawsuit from some one who find there photos was used in game of yoworld idk maybe the got a lawsuit for using political statement in a so called game were kids are playing idk

but i know one thing if BIG VIKING GAMES gets a serious lawsuit then we are doomed then yoworld will not exist no more bcz that will bring bvg down a payment in millions of dollars and that will end with a wham bam thank you mam yoworld has left the planet for good

i knew and you knew from day one that the money we put into this game cant or will never be refounded i know and you know we dont own anything we pay to play with it and thats it , thats how the game is set up 16 years ago by zynga so no refounds are coming your way no matter how hard it is to accept there isnt any , but be sure on that i trully understand the feelings and heartbroken you guys are trust me i trully understand but sometimes we forget that what we did with these boards wasnt acutully okay .

why do i say this well bcz i try to make ppl remember why we are here why we love the game so much as we do bcz we got rid of those packet editors so called hackers who freeze ppl freeze the entire room etc .we got rid of them fake items we gor rid of them players who stold our coins in fake trades we actully have a game who still got issues and i believe we will always have some bcz the game changes over and over we got htnl5 we got bed for two LOL but that was on players wishlist since 2009 when the best theme ever came out the 09 valentine and mafia if these themes had two players bed zynga would had changed from a virtual chat game to a freaking pixelated po.ngame haha my point is how about we start to slow down a bit and let bvg take there time to get the paint board issue done and then we can start to talk about wishes again but only if bvg will be with us on that new trip bcz they need to step big time to by get some new designers for our items and themes bcz what they give us right now is bad as f...k i havenever seen it this bad ever so its up to bvg if they wants to send yoworld on a new 16 years of journey with us , bcz im ready so my question is are you guys ready

It's sad good players lost their artwork (myself included) but I do believe in the terms of service it bans use of 3rd party software. However you guys hacked those images into the game had to include 3rd party software, not to mention the copyrighted pictures and porn that were uploaded onto them. We're lucky everything in the game wasn't lost - if BVG hadn't bought it back from Zynga that's what would have happened. So as sad as it is we need to move on. I wonder though if a possibility could have been to lock the boards?

My boards WERE locked. They still got wiped out.

Same for me. Every paint board I had was locked. Most were gifts. And now they are gone. I was lucky to have screen shots of almost all of them, but most were not that lucky. I'm still smarting from it all, even though I am certain as to why it happened. I do think the reason it happened justifies the pain, but it doesn't lessen it - at all.

i think most everyone had their boards locked, i thought what Michelle meant here was perhaps bvg could have just locked the boards from being changed and left them so we could enjoy them. that is how i took it.

Great point. That was my original recommendation. Lock them all down forever....and then ferret out the ones that had the no-no stuff on them. But they chose "wipe" instead of "lock". *sigh*

Mine were also locked.

I haven't played in a minute. I haven't used paintboards in a while nor have i been able to use frames for years. i simply wanted to upload a photo of myself for my room and now ive been directed to this? complete BS. idk how much longer ill be playing this game at this point. ive been playing since 2010 and every single time i get on something else is taken away. i cant even do any trading like i used to because theres not a single guide thats accurate and people who buy and sell coins for real money have messed everything up. fix this or get rid of the dang game already!!! you bought it over in 13/14 for a reason right!?!?!? and how was it when you bought it?!?! even worse!!! get over it. put back 2 seperate servers for kids and adults.

still no word from the vikings I see

Yes that is what I meant. Make them unable to be edited but keep the ones in the game that were already in the game.

Yah got to know -- that isnt much of an answer ... I know I know

but ..... you have to try

If you don't have a Censor Bot to detect and block naughty pictures like other social websites do then why not refund our boards? And please keep in mind that players have spent thousands of coins on custom art too.

I don't care about the coinage I used to buy boards, the only compensation I want is for amy pond, adult and child river song and 11th doctor npcs, along with weeping angels,along with the other aliens from the 11th dr who series, the lost in space craft, the dr, will and some aliens from lost in space That would suffice

speaking of which, why cant we have a lost in space theme !!! the 60s series

So instead of taking the time to find the abusers, and deal with them ... You just punished EVERYONE!!! Where are the adults??? Very childish thing to do to punish thousands of innocent people because it was less work for you... instead of holding the "law breakers" accountable. Shame on you. Go sit in the corner....So now I'm going to say bye to all my Yo friends just in case I happen to disappear....off of Yo World!!!

This is so completely unjust to all of us long time loyal players who do not abuse this feature. Another example of punishing the masses for the mistakes/wrongdoings of the few. Been playing this game since 2009. Today I'm finally done. This is depressing. Goodbye YoWorld.
