Hey, look! The retards at EzBoard have finally got yuku working! 2 years late and utter shite.
http://yabasicprogramming.yuku.com/directory (http://yabasicprogramming.yuku.com/directory)
They've even copied over all the 'This post is missing' posts from when they lost the entire forums' content and the backups because they BACKED UP to a LIVE INTERNET AVAILABLE SERVER and got hacked.

Hello,
My name is Peyton and I'm your ezboard Customer Service Rep. We have exciting news about a major upgrade to ezboard. We have been working hard on developing an improved message board system based on input from members like you. We're calling the new version "Yuku", which comes from the Aboriginal word for "tree" and is meaningful because the platform provides a fertile place where communities of passionate people can grow.
We are now in the process of upgrading all ezboard communities to Yuku.
Forums, posts and security settings will remain unchanged. So will moderator permissions, banned member settings, posticons, smilies and member accounts . At the account level, avatars, signatures, profile information, ezSupporter subscriptions, user titles, post counts and post history will remain with the account.
Community Chest balances and Gold Community subscriptions will transfer along with the board. All your ezboard URLs will redirect to Yuku so that you won't lose any traffic.
On Yuku, you will continue to enjoy Gold Community features such as sticky topics, hot topics, invisible forums, chat, MBA and many more popular features found today on ezboard.
In addition, we are proud to announce the availability of many new features:
- Sub-forums
- Ignore users' posts: a way to block posts from selected users
- Reverse IP lookup: search for usernames by IP address
- Image hosting: upload images to your account
- Searches in boards, forum and topics
- Customize permissions of your moderators and administrators
- RSS feeds
- Five signatures per account
- Fun and powerful WYSIWYG design tools for rich profile layouts and skins
- Unlimited pages per forum: topics won't fall off the 20th page!
- Restore deleted topics
- Domain masking: you can use your own domain for your message board
- Spell check for posts
- Embedding videos from YouTube and other sites
- Support for Photobucket accounts
- One-click image insertion into posts
The upgrade will take place within the next week. Users can familiarize themselves with the new features by going to http://help.yuku.com
If there are any questions regarding your board's upgrade to Yuku or any one of the new features found on Yuku, please feel free to contact us by opening a help ticket here http://www.yuku.com/help/ticket
Thank you,
Peyton

I think the first thing to do is say -
"Hey, Peyton, you might not remember, but 5 years ago EzBoard lost all the posts from our forums that we had spent many hundreds of dollars maintaining and promoting. Then you were hacked, and it was revealed that your backup strategies were nothing short of negligent. So, having spent that money, you now want us to invest even more money, despite the fact we weren't compensated for your original incompetence, on untested forums. Yuku is now 3 years late and a pale shadow of MySpace or FaceBook it is obviously trying to copy. How does Yuku intend to address these problems?"
Retards.
