IMVU

I've had an account on IMVU off and on since the client first started. It was never intended to be for children or young teenage base. Originally known for its virtual reality and the ability to date others (Instant Messaging Virtual Universe) IMVU is just what it sounds like... envy. Since growing with the client, I've noticed it has quickly sunk through the site being slowly directed to a young audience. How did it get to this point? There were times you could bond with others virtually, make long term friendships and join club type groups. You could hang around and hold conversations about almost anything. Granted communication has become easier over the years, instead of silent chats and I do appreciate that the rooms are friendlier than quick boots. Should you let your kids on this client? If they are over 18, responsible and taught caution when interacting with strangers. Is it for children? NO!

If I could rate this zero stars, I would. Banned my account for 24 hours, because I apparently said something inappropriate in a GA room. I do not visit GA rooms, so I questioned this decision. They immediately reversed the ban, but still accused me of the misdeed. I asked for proof, wanting the evidence they are using. They refused to provide this, claiming it was sensitive information ((Which was apparently my own words)). They are a shady company, who will happily take your money, but provide zero actual customer service. Apparently the next time they claim something happened, I get a permanent ban. I cancelled my VIP, and they are never getting another penny of my money. I warn other against the same
