Imvu was to allow you to escape the real world. Not everyone is falling into the “wanna sex” category on the site. Yes, Imvu has a sexual side of the site. But you must be 18 or older to purchase it with your own credit card. It’s called AP. The people that abuse the chat rooms to the “wanna sex” chats (as you call it) can be reported. And as for all the pets, slaves, masters, mistresses it all depends on what type of rp (role play) chat your in. And NO not the SEXUAL role play. In Imvu world role play is used more as a fictional story matter. It’s almost a form or writing your characters part in a story that each avi contributes to in the room. Such as elves and vampires in a surrounding of kingdoms or covens. Wolfs and their wolf packs. Furries to their owners or their furry family. Some role plays open you to have a family away from your real family. You do grow attached to your virtual family. Imvu allows the person to have the life away from whatever problems may be at home. AND Yeeeesss… I understand they shouldn’t “run” from their problems but for those who can’t face their real world find true friends in the virtual. No one can call them fat or ugly or call them out on their real appearances. A virtual ear that may listen to your problems and try and comfort you and wont turn you away. Yes, it is just a game. And yes, there is a person behind the avi (who maybe lying about who they really are.) But it wasn’t meant for a blind dating site… Some people may meet in teal life… but that’s them. MANY people don’t meet at all. It does allow you to try different personas. For example, my avi has black hair and tattoos and piercings like a “so called biker or a hood rat.” In real life, I have very small hidden tattoos, brown hair, and piercings only in my ears. I view my image on the streets a little differently because of the way society would look upon me. So I am who i want to be in my virtual character. All in all, it’s a fake world, and as for the people that view this game as purely a “sexual chat site” do not understand the game at all and need to really look into it before you start throwing accusations so freely. I am a proud IMVU-er!

I think that it is hard to really monitor everything that your child is doing but with the technology that is out there, it is making it harder to track them.

I tried to look at the good in imvu but all the pets, slaves, masters, mistresses and the sexing kinda ruined it for me. And for all you plp who say it’s just a game, it’s not. You are talking to another person so it’s like yahoo messanger but with avatars. If you have a boyfriend or girlfriend and sext on imvu, your a whore. If you have a boyfriend or girlfriend, letting them on this site is a horrible horrible idea.
