Why are we allowing GA 13+ turn so sexual? No point getting AP 18+.
When a Mesher submits their new mesh, it easily passes peer review because the clothing covers everything, doesn't show how the mesher shrank down the parts on the skin where the MCG red zones are. I'm not even sure if most creators would even understand that making those zones small is still a breach of the rules.
Very popular creators have been selling GA content unsuitable to 13 year olds, and I'm trying to wonder why no one has snipped them for it these recent few years. A lot of them have been here longer than I have and 100% know their content are clever work arounds. It's like they either don't care anymore or know staff won't snip them. I've seen meshers loose their accounts over it, but they still returned with the same content because of all the popular devs supporting their items.
I know staff is quite occupied with all the product report flags they have to go through, so usually takes a very long time to get items removed. But lately, parents have been tolerating more sexual content being shared in the same spaces their teens are hanging out in, so I'm wondering... will imvu go through a TOS change?

Because it isn't a dating site, It's an online virtual world and social networking site. where its users can do whatever their heart desires, if you use this as a dating app that is your discretion but the majority of people do not use this purely for that. Projecting it as such is not only harmful but damaging to the credibility of the site, That being said I do believe that any persons under 18, in general, should not be able to use the site at any point, for the safety of themselves and the safety of others as we all know children can and will lie about their age. I personally think implementing some sort of ID verification to insure children do not have access would be amazing

My question is, why are kids and teenagers allowed to be on this kind of dating website at all? Why do they need to be dating under the age of 18?

@RigsK So I spoke to CS and they explained that I'm ought to look at imvu the same way I look at society in real life, meaning since I can go to a regular shopping mall irl and buy underwear and sexy tight clothes, then I can do the same in imvu's GA rating, wear them casually out in public, just like irl, just be careful who I wear them around and where my photos get shown, but if I post photos advertising them as products, then it's ok because those aren't actual personal photos, they're just advertisements and also have limitations. And our AP rating is more like things we'd find in erotic stores irl, which I've noticed also don't display certain details and are pretty discreet, except for the adult toys.
It's confusing as I didn't expect imvu to be so similar to real life customs lol Most just imagine that since it's online, then it would resemble more like a computer program where the rating labels match the zone permissions. None of my friends or people I know even know about this, but it does make sense and would also save a lot of headaches if it was introduced this way. It certainly does put a spotlight on a lot of culture issues we're still facing in real life lol I guess it makes sense for imvu to not be better or worse, just a reflection and continuation of it. It's so obvious that it's confusing lol you wouldn't think that at first lol I don't know how I'm going to break this to all my friends lol I think they're gonna feel pretty dumb, like I did

I flagged a shop i reported to you @RigsK the shop remained the same, so i put in a ticket and they stayed the same i was told to go back and re flag each item when staff could have just checked the shop. I also got a really rude message back from another member of staff on cs saying that they do go past checks but the items remained untouched.
So now i won't flag nothing imvu cs need to understand we are doing them a favour by taking the trouble to flag. It does not effect us if we leave them unreported. Many a time shop pictures have been ap but cs think it is only the product, they have also been quite dismissive when this has been brought to their attention also. !

Hi All,
MCG guidelines have not changed. If you see products you think might be in violations of our MCG or Terms of Service, by all means, flag them.

I don't even know how to report Native Ads, I thought staff oversaw submissions before displaying them to the public. I get so confused lol I learned that we're not allowed to post pictures of lingerie in GA areas, like your profile picture, but staff does it lol Like if you're wearing a bathing suit in a beach scene, then it's ok, but if you're just posing in your bikini with no matching background theme, then that's considered unsuitable for GA even if it covers all the mcg zones properly. It would be nice if staff gave us a good example to follow, because we're confused, and folks don't even believe me when I show them my pictures that have been removed by customer service. I would love to trust GA and just wear things with confidence, especially if I put work into making those photos. Simplify XD
