![]() Every month there are millions of active users, therefore to protect users, IMVU imposes various terms that users must adhere to in order to enjoy the IMVU experience.Ĭreators are IMVU users who have VIP membership or own a grandfathered account and are able to create content such as: outfits, rooms, avatars, animations, stickers, badges etc. As mobile users are usually young people, IMVU has a very large number of teenagers using the app/platform. IMVU is available on mobile and it’s growing very fast, with approximately half of users opting for IMVU mobile. Much like Sims and Second Life, many users immerse themselves and create the best avatar and/or environment to either chat with others, or make a story come to life. Users can create content that can be purchased by other users and can offer various services. Helping people is always something that I love to do.IMVU is a 3D messenger where users interact with each other, buy clothing, rooms, furniture to enhance their socializing experience. People can always message me, I have my DMs completely open and I read every message I get. None of us feel like we’re better than anybody else. ![]() Be who you are, you know? There are a million different looks on IMVU – you don’t need to use somebody else’s just ‘cause they might get more likes than you, or something like that.īut IMVU has such a great community and you could always reach out to its bigger members. I mean, I’d like people to try to be more original, and try to be themselves, and not have to copy somebody else. Everybody is so caught up in copying everybody’s outfits. IMVU: Is there any advice that you’d want to give out to new users, or anything that you want to say to the IMVU community?Į: I always like to encourage people to be themselves. I wasn’t very serious when I started, I’ll admit.Īnd then I met some friends and I started getting into it more. It was like some name with a bunch of numbers. IMVU: So how did you get started on IMVU? How did you find us?Į: I had a friend, and we played some dumb game called RuneScape, and he was bored of, and he was like, “Create an avatar here, and come to this room with me”. We’ve been together for a long time now, at least for me. And then it just kind of went from there. I own Grim and asked her to model for me first. I don’t even remember what it was… it was a really nooby public room. IMVU: Can you explain a little bit on how you and Sunni met?Į: We just met at a really random, public chat room. We first chatted for a long time and then we finally met October of last year, and we’ve been together in real life since then. I’ve also met my girlfriend through IMVU. I’m sure you’ve seen Saint VX – he has 15k followers and everything. I still have a lot of friends I’m close with. IMVU: So have you met a lot of people through IMVU?Į: Yah I’m good friends with a lot of people. People are more active, and the Feed and Instagram helps a lot because you can do community events and award shows. It’s always guest avatars that leave instantly…the best place to meet people is to go right into chat rooms.īut the community’s gotten a lot better. Chat now has become “nooby” central… you can’t ever actually meet a real person on chat now anymore. We had chat now – I met a lot of my old friends through chat now. When I first started, we didn’t have many ways to meet each other. IMVU: How do you feel the community has changed since you started?Į: Oh it’s changed drastically from when I first started. IMVU has just changed drastically with outfits and quality in general since then. We weren’t anywhere near as creative with outfits as we are now. And we had bobble heads – like legit bobble heads. A box where you had your outfits and stuff on one side, and a whole other box for chat. IMVU: How do you feel like IMVU has changed since you started?Į: Oh gosh, when I first started, IMVU was two boxes. ![]() I took breaks in between… but I’ve only had one account, one username. It turns 13 this year, I think this December. Here is his story, Behind The Avatar.Įlite: Since December 1 st 2005. ![]() Closing out our month of travel with our US user, Elite. ![]()
