… to Yuku, the fabulously-complicated pricing model is further explained here. One thing caught my eye:

“This is not fair. I paid on ezboard for 365 days, I had 200 days left, my board migrated and now you’re replacing my days with page views? This was not the deal I signed up for.
The deal has not changed. The remaining days from ezboard will be applied as days, not page views.
Contributions made after the board was imported will be applied as page views.”

Now I cannot access our Yuku board’s administration section to check to see what that says, but when it was on ezboard with a closed community chest - i.e. the contributions were made before the import took place - we still had $389 left in the chest and Gold status until 14 October 2008. On the basis that we were paying the minimum renewal, we would still have enough to keep it there until at least October 2015.

So let’s see if this is a promise they keep or yet another promise they renege upon. Place your bets!

[edit] Ah wait, there’s another page that says something different (what a surprise):

“Migrated boards that are over 50k views

If your board migrated from ezboard with active gold community, then the remainder of your Gold that was copied from ezboard will be applied in DAYS, not pageviews, to honour the time that you paid for when you intially purchased gold on ezboard. Contributions and the balance of your ezboard chest will be applied as pageviews.”

Now of course our ezboard was not a board with over 50,000 page views, so this two-tier pricing should not apply…
