Is anyone else seeing a drastic drop in sales over the last couple of months? I'm down by $1-200 a fortnight on what I used to earn. This is way more than usual fluctuations. I'm worried.

Thank you! Honestly, my only issue with the new desktop client as of now is this character text limit within chatrooms. If room owners could set that themselves to create functional roleplaying environments I'd immediately move to the new desktop client for social purposes. I'm still stuck to creating in classic, but that's because I don't particularly care for the setup of the new creator client.

I'd comment, but every time I do eventually it gets deleted for being, 'off topic.' Apparently on topic is only complaining - off topic is analyzing the cause. Oops, I think I commented. >.<

Honestly, I would give the new desktop client a chance in a heartbeat if SOMEONE in staff would hear me out and make the absolute minor, completely reasonable and simple change to allow room owners to set their OWN character text limit for chat messages within their own rooms. As it is the new client has a forced 250 character limit in chat rooms, which completely obliterates the RP community ON client. We've all had to move to discord to do our long-form, paragraph RP. Let us RP on the client again, let us set 2500+ character limits in chat in our own rooms so that we can longform RP again ON the client. My entire IMVU shop is dedicated to medieval and fantasy RPers - I can't be mad no one's buying my stuff, because no one can RP on the new client, so why should they. Such a small fix, and it would put 80% of my issues to bed immediately and go such a long way to reviving the RP community on IMVU - which would help greatly with my own sales and most of my friends who do medieval/fantasy content as well.

What I find mystifying is the apparent lack of concern from the company. From my vantage point, this ship looks like it's sinking. You would think there would be some show of concern and/or attempts to get profits up. The only changes I've seen this year is an increase in Vu spam and the 'chubby room' attempted fix they posted. Where's the lowering of actual prices to attract new subscribers? Where's the posting here that the company's upped its advertising budget? Where's anything other than deafening silence?

Shouldn't that tier metric fluctuate with IMVU's own sales volume? The bar shouldn't be that high when the client itself isn't drawing users/sales.

The old client was in beta for years, the first 5 of those were more nightmarish than Studio ever has been, studio is FAR superior to the old client! My personal issues with it are to do with the total lack of icon rendering on many products that I make not the core studio software.... its freaking brilliant.

I totally agree. That is the point I am trying to make. Nothing comes close at all!

Of course, people cheated. But it was still a lot of fun. People manipulate everything online. The idea was that the community as a whole got involved and that caused people to shop more and buy credits. Sadly, with these new imvu platforms all these things are hard to navigate. I love my client.

There are still a lot of community contests. They are not user voted, which I kind of miss, but I am sure users used vote manipulation in the past which kind of kills the fun. Every weekend there is contests with themes and ones in the community center as well. There is even spots for avi artists as well.
