Count Down To Shut Down OF Classic Or Is IMVU Completely Finished?

If any of you geriatrics supporting Classic were to get one of the brand new electric motor cars full of the latest technological innovations, you may in fact not know how most of it works and subsequently designate it as a modern pile of crap, and go back to your clanky old petrol powered car.

This may be simply because you have no idea how the new technology works and do not know how to access the benefits you have just paid for- 

This is a similar case with the new Desktop IMVU - It operates on an advanced technology not accessible by the old Classic App.

You believe the IMVU Desktop App is no good, simply because you have no idea how to use it - It's camera is only 50,000 times better than the one in Classic - It can display textures and lighting that are simply not possible in Classic-

I strongly suggest you spend some time learning it's features and give feedback to IMVU regarding, the inspirations you may have and contributive suggestions for further development    

They sell broken products that do not work constantly which is illegal and fraud.look at all the broken songs they are selling in the musict store.The songs sample perfectly fine before you buy them, then after you pay for them and put it into a mix, the wont work.They will show as playing but be totally silent.The songs go mute.They work when you sample them and dont work when they are put into mixes and we lose money constantly doing this.Also my room I had for 12 years and was our main room which had 100,000 visitors to it over the years and that we all used every single day disappeared off of my room listings and vanished and it happened right after I gave IMVU permission to go into my account to check the music issues.My room is gone forever and they have no explanation why.They even had the nerve to blame ME that I must have taken my own room down by mistake.Who takes a room down "by mistake"???? Let alone their main room they had for 12 years and was the room we used every single day.Why in the world would I take it down?They did it and have no records of it and have no way to get it back for me.Its very scary they could do this to you if they feel like it.I have NO violations on my record and they even said that and they have no idea where the room went to or why it disappeared.You would think they would have some way to get it back on a backup file or something but they say they do not.So my room is gone forever.I cried about it when I realized its gone forever.We had alot of geat memories in that room and alot of my dear friends who have since passed away spent alot of time in that old room.To lose it for no reason is heart breaking and they have no answers.They are the ONLY ones that could have did this , and my feeling is it was done on purpose because I put a complaint in about one of the IMVU agents who was very rude to me and they said they were going to discipline them.I also constantly put cases in with complaints and have become a bother to them, so I think they deleted my room on purpose to get me back....for revenge.Its very disturbing  to know you are at their mercy and can lose everything like that in a second if they want to....

The problem I seem to keep running into on this site is when something is broken , it takes to long for it to be fixed. I'm still getting multiple mails. When I access next to  do the spins I have to close it and reopen for it to load. I bought a shared room and that is a disaster. First thing it did not give me the option of which room I wanted to share, and it sent to invite to multi people. It also put the room on next empty. That room is fully decorated. I even did a shell change to another fully decorated room.  Plus the person I was sharing with landed in a different empty room we could not find each other. Support response was what I was telling them was a known issue with no ETA on a fix date. The heck with that  give me my money back. You have knowledge and still promoting and selling a defective product.  If they don't refund me I'm doing a bank charge back. When they get their mess fix I'll buy again until then  no they can't keep my money for a useless defective product. 

I feel like the people from sl are trying to trick us into going to sl and we won’t imvu is home 

We need classic

This Is Why We Have Some People On IMVU
Who Sound Like They Are Part Of The Community,
However In Actuality They Sound Like They Actually
Want IMVU To Collapse...

The fact that IMVU Classic has not been shut down yet and still gets updates every couple months is proof that some folk working with IMVU have been smart enough to keep the doors open. 

My Response:

I just wish they would focus more time and energy on Classic because the users of Classic are a major source of income and the backbone of IMVU.



You Don't Seem To Understand Do You?

Why Do Everyone Want The Classic? Because All Other Iterations Were Done Bad,
Soooo, Now What? You Want Them To Ruin The Classic, Too? ~__~

The Point Of The Classic, Was That It Was Classic,
People Don't Want That Updated, Because It Was Fine
Just The Way It Was.

The More They Update The Classic,
The More Classic Just Gets Ruined,
& Continues To Get Worst...

I Want The Old Classic Back, & For The IMVU Staff
To Stop Messin With It, & Just Make Optimization Updates...

Let All Their New Efforts Put On Future IMVU Projects,
Like The Desktop APP, The Next, & The Mobile...

Then People Can See What & How Updates Ruin The Classic,
By Looking At All The Other Versions Being Ruined, o___O

I've Never Liked Mobile, Nor Things Like FaceBook,
If They Shove IMVU Into That Direction, & Delete
What Was The Classic Before It?

I Will Quit, & Not Come Back, ~___~

------------------------------------

In Next, I Can't Even Find My Furnature Anymore,
In Mobile The Funky Controls & Awkward Screen...

In The New Desktop APP, The Advertising Is Atrocious,
& The Funky Controls Ruin The APP...

The Classic Was Just Fine Without Any Update At All...


Don't You All See, Are You That Blind?

They Ruin 3 Or So APP's, & You Want Them To Have Another
Try With A 4th APP, Just Cause You Don't Like Anything Else...

When Are You Gonna Wake Up?

Updating The APP's Is What Drove IMVU Into This Mess From The Start... ~___~

Update - Windows 10 = Broke Windows 10
Update - Windows 10 = Created The Windows 11
Update - Adult Pass = This Went Poorly
Update - VIP Pass = This Is Now Over Priced Junk
Update - The Next = Broke Next
Update - Mobile = Did Not Improve Mobile
Create New - Desktop Client = Broken Client
Update Old - Desktop Client = Ruined & Broke Client
Created New - Windows = The Windows 11 Abomination
Updated - Windows 11 = Broke Windows 11 Worst & Worst

Stop Updating, lOl, ^___-


The Classic Is A Classic For A Reason,
Because It's Not Supposed To Be Updated, ~___~

After Everything Said Here,
I Think Some People Either
Can't Handle A Product That Won't Update,
Or They Are Obsessed With Broken Problems...

It's As If There Are People Who Just Don't
Want Anything Classic Or Retro, Or Even Antique
To Exist Anymore, So They Refuse To Stop Updating,
& Changing Them To Be Just Like All Other More
Future Garbagy That People Can't Stop Inventing,
While The Whole World Is Saying Stop Inventing Slop, ~___~

Why Else Would You Riot Cities, & Break, & Destroy Things,
Because Your Driven To Do So By Peope Who Love Control Over You,
& Obsess With Manipulating You Upon The Lines Till Your Suicide Comes,
& They Take Pride In Your Death...

These People Aren't Anyone's Friend, &
People Need To Stop Supporting & Listening To Them...

Your Being Tricked Into This, & If You Want Proof Of This,
Then Think About How You Already Have A Computer Desktop Client
That Is Newer, & Can Run All The Bogus New Stuff All The Mobile
Next Stuff Runs... Yet, People Only Want The Classic To Update,
Anybody Care To Ask Why? o____O

What If I Said, The Only Reason They Want The Classic To Be Focused On,
Is Because It's The Only Client Not Having Trouble, & Not Broken, So
They Insist In It's Updates Moving Forwards, Obsessively Till It Does...

How About Now? You Still Not Convinced That Some
People Are Supportive Of The Majority In The Room,
Or Do You Prefer To Continue To Support More Updates
To Find How How Bad Your Being Betrayed By The Staff Here?



Prove Me Wrong?

My thoughts are running along the lines of IMVU Classic is suffering the same fate as the 20 year old RedlightCenter AKA Utheverse. The program is so old it is limited in what the Devs can do to update. I can assure you that the newer versions of this game all fall flat. When I initially joined I signed on the newer version of game figuring come in with a clean slate. I hated it. Told support this mess is not ready for release to the public and quit the game. It was my friends that dragged me back to classic. I really liked it. Everything looked 3D  and I could find the dots without a version of me sitting or standing before I got there. I won't even address the spooky mannequins in the rooms. So maybe it's time for the PTB to say to us  This is all we can do with classic the program is to old to update further. Then we can be satisfied with them just keeping Classic running in good condition. I don't buy that 2D looking clothing furniture or rooms. When I see that colorless junk with no depth to it I pass it by at high speed. Sell that mess in a cartoon world because a cartoon is all it is. The selling point of all these game is being 3D. Lose the 3D effect and you lose the concept of making things appear real and that is your money maker.

The fact that IMVU Classic has not been shut down yet and still gets updates every couple months is proof that some folk working with IMVU have been smart enough to keep the doors open. 

I just wish they would focus more time and energy on Classic because the users of Classic are a major source of income and the backbone of IMVU. 

I am unsure how much IMVU can earn from the advertisers that spam the users who don't use Classic but it is probably enough to keep the site afloat if the Classic users left. Still they want both sources of income and this is why IMVU Classic won't be scrapped anytime soon.

I hope this simple logic offers some comfort to those whom are worried. 

Agreed...If IMVU gets rid of the Classic client, that will be the final deathblow for this website.it will be over.Its dying badly right now and that would be the final nail in the coffin for the website, and its a damn shame.Mobile is absolutely horrible, and no matter how much they try to con us and try to get us to that horrible desktop version they have now, we are not stupid...Desktop is  absolutely horrible as well.NEWSFLASH FOR YOU IMVU....WE HATE THE DESKTOP SO STOP FOCUSING ON THAT MESS BECAUSE WE ARE NOT GOING THERE AND NEVER WILL....WE WILL ALL LEAVE !!!! EVEN THOUGH YOU WILL NEVER LISTEN TO US, IF YOU WERE SMART AND ACTUALLY UPGRADED THE CLASSIC CLIENT AND PUT YOUR RESOURCES AND EFFORTS INTO FIXING THAT AND MAKING THAT YOUR MAIN FOCUS INSTEAD OF THE CRAP DESKTOP AND MOBILE VERSIONS,YOU WOULD ACTUALLY KEEP THE MEMBERS YOU HAVE NOW (THE LOYAL MEMBERS WHO ACTUALLY CARE AND SPEND MONEY ON YOUR WEBSITE) AND ALSO START PICKING UP NEW CUSTOMERS AND MEMBERS WHO WOULD BE EXCITED TO SEE AN IMPROVED CLASSIC CLIENT.YOU WOULD EVEN GET BACK OLD MEMBERS THAT YOU RAN OFF THE SITE AS WELL IF THEY SAW THAT..WE WOULD RATHER PAY FOR SOMETHING WE ENJOY INSTEAD OF THAT MESS YOU HAVE ON DESKTOP AND MOBILE.YOUR NUMBERS ARE STEADILY DROPPING EVERY SINGLE MONTH..CANT YOU SEE THAT??? WE ALL HAVE BEEN WARNING YOU WHAT YOU NEEDED TO DO AND YOU HAVE COMPLETELY IGNORED ALL OF US...THE CLASSIC CLIENT IS YOUR ONLY SAVIOR IF YOU DONT WANT TO END UP GOING OUT OF BUSINESS..YOU BETTER LISTEN TO US BEFORE ITS TOO LATE !!!!

This is the most valid thread I’ve come across in a while. I empathize with most, if not all of these points.

@MrNathanLadds   good point and IMVU must have listened because now when you try to buy credits they make you sign a license agreement that covers their butts from any possible liability  and protects them from class action lawsuits LOL

I agree with what everyone said, IMVU only full of bugs and glitches now and nothing else I would advice and suggest all people to stop spending money and feeding IMVU money, that is the only way you can get things fixed, if they face loss in money only then they will listen to the users maybe, otherwise there is no chance.

I have stopped spending money on IMVU since long time and now i do peer review and spins to get promo credits, but even that is all glitchy and bugged, I have been on 100% accuracy in doing peer review ever since i am doing it and IMVU have took away my peer review option 3 times now then when they find out it's a mistake they gave it back and now yesterday there is an incorrect vote showing in my peer review history which i didn't even pass or vote for, it is an icon with a red nazi symbol I am sure many of you who do peer review have came across that icon and seen it, and i have always skipped any product which had that icon as soon as i see it, so there is no way i can get a product with that nazi symbol in my incorrect votes , but IMVU and whole peer review is so full of bugs and glitches that even now they got my peer review history showing all wrong and that nazi symbol icon is appearing in my incorrect votes which i never voted for , and IMVU now took away my peer review option once again for a mistake which their system made, they disable accounts falsely and even take away privileges falsely but never think to look at their faulty and buggy system and fix it.

this the nazi symbol the hate symbol yes same one that had got me banned from peer when i voted against the hate AI now and we all get punished for it have good day good luck I tried to report the issue and all i got was bunch of AI generated responses sad they took away phone support

I have been on imvu now for almost 19 years, almost 18 on my second attempt. I'm really upset about the idea of Classic being taken away from us in favor of Next. I have contributed a significant amount of money to this business and have done so for 19 years. Age verification was required when I first started signing up. Now there are kids running around, copying everything in shop, and it still passing in peer. We adults all paid for AP and we should have the right to things that are adult. I mean, why do we have ap? For clothes?  Images of rooms, furniture, or clothes with AP cannot be posted on the feed. We are given crumbs and are constrained. We now have to pay a subscription fee for AP+ in order to spend a ton of credits on a single, basic pose. Whoa, talk about being money-hungry, not giving a damn about your customers' inquiries, or figuring out how to fix classic instead of devoting all the time and energy to the AP. We complain all the time about things being fixed here, they dont because as earlier stated..... The app is getting all the attention.. So many ppl are asking for classic to remain, and if ppl want to go onto the app they can go. Dont take classic away, make it better.. Maybe the numbers will go back up, as of now everyone is leaving and going to Second Life.
