The Downfall Of IMVU APP (DEEP-DIVE) Capitalism & True Crime, Today I talk about the downfall of this virtual world website, I talk about, IMVU is an online 3D avatar-based social networking website and app where users create and customize a 3D avatar to interact and chat with other users in a virtual world. It functions as a place where people can socialize, play games, go to virtual parties, and create and sell their own virtual items, such as clothes and furniture. Users can create and customize a 3D avatar with a wide variety of clothing, hairstyles, and accessories you can buy Credits they are the official in-game currency used to buy almost everything in the IMVU catalog, IMVU started in 2004 and was founded by Eric Ries the author of The Lean Startup and its pop culture popularity stemmed from being a pioneer in 3D avatar based social networking, chatting, and user-generated content. At a time when instant messaging (like AIM or Yahoo! Messenger) was primarily text-based, IMVU offered a fun environment where users could interact in real-time using customizable 3D avatars. It provided a space for users to meet new people, chat, play games, and create communities around shared interests, fostering a sense of individuality and connection. 

A major draw for IMVU was its extensive creator program, which allowed users to design, create, and sell their own virtual goods, IMVU has users all over the world, with users from over 120 countries. The platform is designed to connect people globally In 2010, IMVU was very popular and financially successful it reported over 50 million registered users and approximately 6 million unique monthly visitors, In December 2010, there were often over 120,000 people using IMVU at any given moment from around the world! a lot of Users quit IMVU after 2010 for various reasons, including the removal of popular features like voice chat and free music streaming, leading many long-time users to leave. The platform introduced a tiered VIP membership system and mandatory payment for features that were once free which users felt made the platform too expensive. The price for things in users wish lists including avatar clothing, hair, rooms, and other virtual items has increased drastically over time, often going up into the thousands of credits for single items. New users receive a limited amount of free credits! IMVU has become a typical capitalist "endless money pit" that prioritizes revenue and capitalism profits over player experience, leading to a decline in user satisfaction. 

Nobody chatting in the chat rooms anymore The platform is seen as less vibrant and more focused on shallow interactions like taking selfies in rooms instead of talking to each other! Long-time users, especially those involved in roleplaying and content creation communities, report that the platform feels like a "wasteland" compared to its peak, with many original features and active groups and forums now inactive. The emphasis on virtual fashion and status can lead to "cliquey" high school mean girl like communities and users who can't afford popular items using money to buy credits or who are perceived as "newbs" are booted from chat rooms by power hungry mods, IMVU just like Roblox has a significant problem with online predators, IMVU has a widely acknowledged and significant problem with catfishing, The rise of more dynamic platforms like Discord, which offer easy voice chat and better community engagement tools, has drawn users away from IMVU's more dated text-chat-focused experience. Technological Stagnation: IMVU was an early innovator in 3D social chat, but newer platforms offer better graphics and features, making IMVU feel outdated for many users one such example of this is Users often note that there isn't enough to do on IMVU beyond chatting and shopping, especially compared to modern games that offer clear goals and immersive gameplay, ETC!!!
