You all knew it was coming.
You can log in using your regular ezboard name and password
If you need any help with Yuku, you can ask here. Feel free to ask away other questions as well. I'm still working on making things look right but things should be workable for the most part.
Why Yuku?
Well, it's been in development for the last 3 years... It's kinda that time. It's also lots better than ezboard as well with more features
What About Eliteboard?
Only time will tell
Wait a minute! Didn't we lose posts?
Yes. However, this is understandable because it takes time to port 100,000s of posts over altho I guess they we could've used some warning o.o

No sir I don't like it.
What the Psx said, but louder.
I'm talking chords of steel louder right now.
DO NOT WANT!
Hmm, I was just wondering how long it was supposed to be until EZ became Yuku the other day and thought about making a topic about it. Anyway, I was on EZ with my desktop when I shut it down so my computer could do virus scans and than about 15 min later I got my laptop, tried to go to MFC2, and was shocked to see it send me to the Yuku MF. I had no idea this was supposed to be today and it caught me totally off guard! I'm glad I didn't make the topic now.^_^
I'd like to say that the search on yuku also DOES in fact work
While it has been a faithful companion, your EZboard cannot accompany you through the rest of the internet. If it could talk - and the EZboard administration takes this opportunity to remind you that it cannot - it would tell you to go on without it, because it would rather die in a fire than become a burden to you.
The EZboard administration reminds you that the Yuku Forum System will never threaten to stab you and, in fact, cannot speak.
What the hell is Kudos? Are avatar size limits now HAVE to be 100 x 100? Or can they be changed to a maximum of iirc 150-200? I am not liking this.
And my sig reverted to my old one. What the hell?
EDIT: Another thing I noticed. Yuku seems to host your own pictures now instead of allowing you to use sites like photobucket- but this is crap. I uploaded a .gif and it's all flashing and looks utter crap.
It's because it's running off an older version of the board. They're not gonna port the posts as of yesterday. =
So does that mean all the posts that were made yesterday are gone?
NOT GOOD. An rp I'm in at the moment had just had a massive update by the GM. Unless they saved it, and its gone, then that is exceptionally lame.
it's possible that some of the newer topics will get shunted over later, since that seemed to happen to a few on my own forum.
still, i'm going to miss how the old forum worked with the custom buttons and everything. ^^;
I'm being forced to use my Disco Ray account because for some reason, my other accounts ("One Tru Blu" and "one true blu") have been mysteriously banned and obviously I blame Yuku for this.
This does not make me feel like dancing at all!
Well this comes as quite a surprise. o_0 I guess I'm a sucker for familiarity, but this is....well....
MoFo seemed so unchanged and always how I remember it for the most part. Then all this kinda slips through out of nowhere. I'm still in shock to decide if I like it or not. XD
~T2K
I like it. I've been posting on old ezboards that make the switch to yuku a few months ago, so I'm used to it already. Every time I would get on the ezboard one of MoFo I would have to log in multiple times, now everything is smooth for me. Hope everyone gets used to it and in the end likes it.
Creoland has been on yuku for a bit and after the initial move and bits of tweeking, it better than what it was like on ez. Also i believe there is a way to use your own hosting for avas and such and have them larger than the default 100x100. Also o.o @ OTB, yet your accounts are fine on creoland. Probably a banned ip on shq has been associated with your username or something...
oh, and turn off that kudos crap, makes the tables look D:
I don't like this one bit. Can't you change it back to look like it once was?
THERE IS NO GOING BACK
yay Yuku
I still would like to know what the heck "kudos" is for. Also, can we make our own titles or would we still have to request them, that is if anybody would actually make them?
Kudos just seem to be like a cool points thing designed to make people post decent topics (one of the requirements seems to be "make a topic with long replies") and such.
I've looked through the system out of curiosity... and... I like it. Alot.
So, in other words, Ari's topic in MFC2 should have mega kudos, right? Anyway, so, I wrote Ultra a PM the other day; would that message be carried over with the "move" or do I have to rewrite it?
It's..... ugly. Slightly hurts my eyes.
I'd almost think that kudos are like the reputation system over on SRK (Shoryuken MB)...just not as lame. I love how every post takes up like...half the screen. Other than that...I suppose this kind of system was inevitable since this is the Myspace generation. I'm going to friend the lot of you...haha
Avatars are uploaded and are whatever size you originally upload them as.
AHHH WHERE THE HELL IS MY ESSAY =(
They'd better bring the rest of those posts.
On the other hand, it's very interesting looking at EVERY RECORDED POST YOU EVER MADE LISTED BEFORE YOU. o.o Not just 5.
EDIT: Okay, not every post, but it sure goes back pretty far.
I think my biggest complaint is the "NO NEW POSTS" icon on the main page. I don't care about it unless there are NEW posts... Could we possibly turn that one icon off?
Yuku chat doesn't work for me. IRC refuses to work, now Yuku?
Yuku does not love me.
;_;
What the hell is Kudos?
the forum equivalent of /love and /hate, darling
i honestly do not give a !+%! that we have moved. there are only two things that disturb me about this transversal: the disappearing archives, and otb's banned accounts. i'd like to know how widespread these two problems are.
EDIT: yeah, the fact that i have to manually type linebreaks in html view is a bit annoying as well, but i can live with that easily.
The archives are just hidden on the main page.

Deckman92.u says (22:45):
fantastic
Deckman92.u says (22:45):
are there posts missing in them
Dr Lighthead.u says to (22:45):
No
Deckman92.u says (22:45):
problem one solved
steebay31.u says to (22:46):
I was just going to say that they were there before
Dr Lighthead.u says to (22:46):
I have no idea what made OTB's email on the banned list
Deckman92.u says (22:47):
so is he banned from yuku or just the forum?
Dr Lighthead.u says to (22:48):
forum
Dr Lighthead.u says to (22:48):
But I fixed it for him
Deckman92.u says (22:48):
problem two solved
i am no longer disturbed! still curious, though.
My posts per page problem has been solved, too.
Everything is going according to plan. Bwa-ha-ha-ha *clears throat* Ha.
Hm
Is there any way of restoring posts that were lost in the Yuku transfer or are they gone for good?
There is a code to enter to add or change your post amount, but I think you have to do each person manual which would be tiresome.
I'm not referring to postcount - that I don't really care about in the least bit.
It's the actual posts - the content themselves - that were lost in the transfer that I was concerned with. Stuff that was posted day of the transfer, that vanished during.
They still exist on ezboard, and there is a little trick you can use to view them. However, if you don't know the URL of it, an admin can get it by going under view forum in the ez CP. Here's an example:
Original URL
http://p085.ezboard.com/fsonichqcommunitymobiusforum.showMessage?topicID=18196.topic
Modified URL
http://p085.ezboard.com/fsonichqcommunitymobiusforum.showMessageRange?topicID=18196.topic&start=1
http://p085.ezboard.com/fsonichqcommunitymobiusforum.showMessage Range?topicID=18196.topic&start=1
Bolded text marks off what is different.
does not work if the posts are not on the first page
EDIT: oddly enough, i actually did find one of my missing posts on the fourth page of a thread. but i found it through the same URL that i've been looking through for the past couple of days.
o.o!@being able to get EZ posts back^^
anyway, decided to fiddle around with it for a bit, and while I was at it, looked up some of the RP threads. Wasn't sure if anyone did that yet or not (or if things have gotten recovered enough so that it doesn't matter now), but just in case it helps, here are some of the links^^ :

Edit: was having trouble posting without quick reply, but I think I finally figured it out (ended up having to change preference settings), so decided to tack on an edit to this post to test it out^^;
So we finally moved, eh?
It's
About
Time
Ah, thanks, Ari, I was wondering what happened to some of those posts. Hope you don't mind if I copy the last two links, considering they're for the AoE RP. 😛
I meant to post that but forgot. Thanks Ari. :3
~Tobe
nope@mind...and welcome^^
AoE, never saw that acronym before. +7 on the geeky scale too.
~Tobe
I'm already a total geek, anyways.
A few other tidbits incase anyone else has wondered:
- Posts don't fall off the 20th page anymore
- Voting/editing currently does not bump topics
I am having trouble signing in lately. It is strange, yuku only seems to let me sign in to reply to a post.
Anyone had avatar image problems? Yuku appears to have wiped mine and, although I've uploaded some more and my profile page is showing the pic, my posts aren't showing it. Have we had an upgrade that's left me a n00b? Any advice gratefully received!
DW
EDIT: Although now I've asked this, the avatar's back. Never mind, go about your business, and ignore that person behind the curtain!
