Yo, what is up people? I'll do my best to stick to the guidelines set in the introduction section.

First off, given the nature of the website and the fact it would be easy to trace me, I won't give out my name.
However, feel free to refer to me as 'Shark' or 'Sharkie' (Something people never call me).

I am a disgruntled developer on the IMVUs.
To cut a long story short; I haven't been a member near as long as most of you guys, but long enough to have had fun times, meet a few cool people, and make a lot of cool/fun stuff!
Not too long ago, I discovered that people on IMVU got so much stuff for free, that later on, you would have to pay for the privilege of having. There was that, in addition to access to meshes by disabled accounts being stripped from the community.

In my spare time, I am a huge retro game and arcade enthusiast, with a knack for graphic design.
I enjoy replicating old arcade machines in the virtual space, and I'd like to think I do a fair job at doing so.
Other than playing arcade games on my machine at home, I enjoy skateboarding, doing art (whether it's graphic design, video game art, or character art) and listening/playing metal music.

All that aside, I like the overall idea of this site. And I hope to possibly make a friend or two if you are on a similar wavelength. Here primarily to do business, maybe score some custom meshes for arcade machines to make in the future (It's a huge passion of mine).

Huge holla to you all! And also, vagina ... because it was there...

Welcome to the Mafias' Shark.


We're all disgruntled IMVU devs here. I can't imagine any developer not being disgruntled with the way IMVU treats them.

You'll find our site has lots to offer if you take the time to look around. Our site is undergoing upgrades and design changes so if you find yourself lost or needing help feel free to contact myself or another staff member.

i'd like to think that all of us would love to fuck up imvu in one way or another so yea D.M is right we are all disgruntled here.some more then others lol.with that beeing said welcome and i do hope you will find in us a great home (family) as all of us did

Heya Sharkie! Since I'm the dork thats gonna make it cute I like friends, and I'm disgruntled in one way or another.

Don't be afraid to post, if you know something we might not, tell us about it. Earn medits and play the lottery: points.php?mode=lottery

Generally have fun, cause we're weird. This is the darkside, yes we have cookies, but I steal them allllll.

Thank you all for the warm welcomes! I appreciate that.

So, seems I struck a bit of a chord there with the whole 'disgruntled' thing. And I like that.

You're all right, though. The way IMVU treats us is disgraceful. And they charge you up the ass for everything. And as I said, apparently, it never used to be that way. Why do we have to pay to make IMVU money?

However, IMVU did provide a great creative outlet for me. With the devving and all. It's just... an expensive hobby.

Happy to hear that I seem to have come at a good time with all the upgrades happening and whatnot.

And I'd like to take the opportunity to thank D.M for his services thus far!

I look forward to doing a lot more business here, and rallying with you guys against the evil talons that is IMVU!

Peace!

Been at IMVU for 11 yrs, the previous CEO wasn't as money hungry, however IMVU also didn't progress very much. When the new people came in, IMVU guys became ken dolls, and the ability to change precredits into real credits got taken away. Then we got a new CEO, and old devs were grandfathered in and new devs had to pay a fee. Along with paying for rooms and price rising of everything else, lol I remember when registering was only $7, good ol days

i remember when vip was just !$ for the first month damn me for not making tons of dev accs back then
