The MousePad Switch From EzBoard to Yuku Thread

  Votes: 0
Hello and welcome! image Have a look around and let us know if you have any questions. Here are some FAQs to read when you're really bored. See you around.

Do I need to re-register at the new board?
No need to re-register, and if you try to re-register it will tell you
your email address is already registered in Yuku. This is because your
account was migrated to Yuku along with the board.

How do I log in?
You can log into your yuku account by entering your email address OR
your username and your password into the log in fields. You'll find
these two boxes across the top of any yuku page. If you don't see
them, but instead see "welcome [username]" then that means you're
already logged in.

Why am I linked to usernames that I wasn't linked to on ezboard?
Yuku links accounts by email address. All of those accounts shared
your email address on ezboard.

How do I unlink usernames?
There isn't an option to unlink usernames at this time.

How do I delete a username?
The option to delete usernames is coming soon.

Why am I logged into the wrong username?
If you have an old username showing up when you log in, then click the
Navigation button in the top right corner and click Switch Profile to
switch to your desired username. If that username doesn't show on the
list, then logout, and then log in with the desired username and
password.

What if I can't log in at all?
Please put in a help ticket, and give us the relevant details for the
account you're trying to log into. http://www.yuku.com/help/ticket

Why are my details (post count, join date) wrong?
Your profile may have been created, rather than migrated. Please put
in a help ticket to have your profile updated.
http://www.yuku.com/help/ticket

How can I get my usernames/profiles all on the same email account?
Put in a help ticket and give all the relevant information about
emails and usernames. http://www.yuku.com/help/ticket

How can I add a link in my post?
Press add reply to get the rich text bar (editor). Click on the button
that looks like a chain *two over from the bullets* and insert the
proper information.

How can I change my posts per page view setting?
In your Navigation, go to Account Settings > Preferences

How can I see what is in a topic before entering it?
If you hover over a topics subject you will see a small preview of
what is inside. The preview will not work if there is an emoticon or
image posted first thing in the post.

How do I quote someone?
If you press more underneath a users name with a post you have the
options to : message me, befriend me, block me, invite me, quote me.
Click quote me to quote that post, with the person's name included.
You can also copy some text and put it into quote tags ([ quote ] text
[ /quote ], or you can use the quote button in the editor on selected
text.

How can I send someone a message?
If you press more underneath a user's name with a post you have the
options to : message me, befriend me, block me, invite me, quote me.
Click message me to send a message to that person.

How can I return to the forum instead of the thread after posting?
If you keep returning to the thread after you post and would not like
to, uncheck the Stay in topic box.

How do I jump to another forum?
To jump from forum to forum beside the add reply button at the bottom
of the thread are the words jump to with a down arrow. Press the down
arrow and you will see a forums listing.

What will happen to my ezSupporter subscription?
ezSupporter can still be used on ezboard. Yuku will have a similar
type of program in the future.

Can I still use my ezboard account on ezboard?
If you have a global ezboard account, yes you can still use it on
other ezboards. You can log into your global ezboard account at
http://login.ezboard.com/BBSUser.fromWeb You can still post on other
ezboards, send private messages on ezboard, etc. If you had a local
account on ezboard, it only worked at the single board which is being
migrated to Yuku, so you will not be able to use that account on other
ezboards (which is no different from how your account functions now)

Found my old inbox, those are still with ezboard.

I bet things change here soon. I know on the old board people did not want who is online currently being visible, nor did they like showing post view counts showing.

It has a cleaner look but don't know how much I like it.

Wish they would just switch to straight phpBB like pretty much every other board.

I have put my faourite 5 foot-sites in my profile if anyone is interested (the last link is a completely free site which is awesome).
Maybe other padders can also list their top 5 - so we can all have a really good network of foot-sites.

Regarding the top 5 - just thought I better mention this (actually it should be a sticky cause it's very important):

YuKu allows its members to search for friends who are already members. By entering your hotmail/yahoo etc in the "find friends" section, it can scan and find anyone in your address book who is also a member of YuKu (please correct me if I am wrong here). Now this is important fellow foot friends, cause if one of your friends runs a search via their email, and you are stored in their email - then they will be directed to your profile - so if you are using your primary email address then think twice about foot references/pictures and top 5 - cause chances are your friends can see it all (along with any of your recent posts) if you have set your configuration to "everybody" can view.

The simple way around any potential embarassment, is to use a "secret" or secondary email address (to do this just go into your settings and change your email (I notice YuKu has used the same email I joined the pad with - so your emails are stored).

Maybe I am being paranoid, but I am certain this would have caused atleast a couple of red faces had I not brought it up. After all, you wouldn't want your girlfriends seeing your pad-posts would you?

Anybody follow what I am saying here - it's kind of hard to explain. It really is nothing to worry about, provided you configure your profile correctly or use a secondary email address.

If I am worng here - please tell me and I will delete this - but just wanted to warn you.

All your visited links are blue (non-read) that cannot be changed.

If you go back to ezboard.com and click control center on the top you can find your old inbox.

My hats off to the people who switched to Yuku.

I've been waiting for a board revamp for months now. Yuku is much more accessible and fresh than the old setup.

I'm old (OK, I'm 28, but I'm old at least in terms of how long I've been around here, and how out of touch I am compared to how I used to be), and I don't get it. Would someone explain what's going on with this new 'Pad to me?

I agree. I kinda understand taking down "who's online" cuz some people like coming on here without letting it be known. However, the views should have stayed. What's the point of removing it? Someone's feelings getting hurt that their thread isn't popular?

I think it is owned/designed by the Ezboard team, and is faourable to the board owners as it can apparantly generate good retyrns on a monthly basis. It's just eZboard really - only with more features and a networking side (similar to MySpace) so you can also add friends, give kudos and so on.

This is something ezboard/yuku changed, we didn't have any part in this! I'm not too crazy myself about the change but maybe it's because I'm use to seeing the same 'pad for 7 years.

I like the look of it, just didn't know where the hell to go to find my PM's and stuff. I logged into Yuku, and couldn't find my old and recent PM's, so went back to the old ezbaord route.

M is still around and still in charge but this change went beyond us since we were under the wing of ezboard, now yuku. I'm not sure what M can change here now about this new layout.
