We would like to address the valid concerns that have been raised by our community regarding the implementation of IMVU's Minimum Coverage Guidelines (MCG). We highly appreciate your feedback and want to assure you that your voices are being heard. Your input is crucial in helping us create a more inclusive and transparent environment for both creators and users.
Clarification on MCG Implementation
We understand that some users are experiencing confusion about how to implement the MCG. Specifically, there are questions about the acceptability of using an MCG opacity map (mcg) wider than the red area. We are actively working on providing more detailed guidelines and examples to clarify this aspect.
Identifying Manipulated MCG/Body
To address concerns about identifying manipulated MCG or body shapes, we are exploring ways to improve our review and flagging processes. Our goal is to make the identification of non-compliant content more accurate and transparent.
Sample Compliant Bodies
We hear your request for sample bodies that conform to the MCG rules, especially on newer mesh bodies. We are actively working on providing these examples to ensure that creators have clear guidance.
Public Understanding and Peer Review
We acknowledge the need for clearer communication during peer reviews. We are committed to providing examples of compliant bodies and exploring standardized mcg skin coverage based on body sizes to enhance clarity and understanding during the review process.
Inconsistent Enforcement
We are aware of concerns about inconsistent enforcement of MCG guidelines. We are actively working to improve our processes to ensure fair and consistent enforcement across all products.
Personal Conflict in Flagging
We take your concerns about flagging seriously and will investigate any instances of unfair flagging. We are working on creating a more transparent and impartial flagging system.
Derived Products and Ratings
We are aware of the concerns surrounding derived products and how they are rated. We will explore ways to ensure that ratings are applied fairly and consistently.
Improved Communication and Collaboration
Finally, we want to emphasize our commitment to better communication and collaboration with the creator community. We value your input and will actively seek your feedback to improve our guidelines and enforcement processes.
We want to thank you for your patience and understanding as we work through these concerns. Our aim is to create an environment where everyone can enjoy IMVU while adhering to guidelines that ensure a positive and safe experience for all.
Please continue to share your thoughts and suggestions with us, as they are invaluable in shaping the future of IMVU. Together, we can make IMVU a better place for all members of our community.
Update:We have updated the MCG section of the Creator Education Center with some additional details and clarification. An anchor has been made for easy access to the updated section. Please note that we'll continue to update this page as the ongoing internal/external conversation regarding MCG continues.
I'm in total agreement with you Daisy about the tier issue, I think being a "greeter" should be removed, not of all of us have the the time to spend all day on Imvu to go around and greet people who don't appreciate it anyway! smh

Peer review needs to be ran by trained ppl not just anyone wanting to rush through it to earn credits. As creators we shouldnt be allowed to rate each other products Because sadly there are petty people out there Who want to fail your products and make them for themselves I've had this happen. I think the only way to make peer review work and get proper ratings on products is to get a team of non creators non players on it. Its sad that ppl cant be fair and fallow rules but it happens. Its wrong creators are being Penalized for using Meshes that passed review and are now being pulled And remarked. Mastakes get made i understand but VU did let this go on way to long to now Penalize the creators for their mistakes in making sure meshes where correct. There has to be a way we can all win in this if we work together Vu needs to stop taking money for Previously passed items notify the creator that the item needs to be re submitted as AP Make the re submission process easy And for the rest of us we just need to always mark our products AP if we have any sort of doubt whatsoever.

@Yuuasa I read everything correctly. Was I being rude? Nope, I was merely making a truthful statement. What your talking about is preventing ppl like you making IMVU an x rated sight. Don't like the rules here? There are many other sights that will allow you to do what you talk about. End of story. Have a fantastic day sweetie!

Rather rude and condescending for someone who can’t read what was written correctly. My complaint is that I have to give up my speech in a GA room so I can freely post pics to feed and even if I’m in a fully GA outfit if I want to say the anatomical word for genitalia in a rational conversation (and this isn’t even close the the dumb stuff I’ve had censored) I have to go sit in an AP room, lose the ability to post pics, and finally there I’m able to talk without being blocked by imvu’s monitor bots. So even if I’m in a room with one other adult I can’t just set my room to age verified and be able to enjoy both a normal conversation and post to feed. Thanks for being such a fkn champ, mate.
