Thanks for this very active thread, everyone. For those newer creators here, or those who may not remember the Peer Review processing times from a few years ago, I can appreciate that it's a bit concerning that your products aren't passing instantly sometimes. Even through these changes, the vast majority (~75%) of product submissions were passed almost immediately through regular peer review. As I mentioned previously, we will continue to adjust our Peer Review algorithm frequently, and we will not be letting you know when that happens. As DA5 said earlier in the thread, this defeats the purpose of the system. Many are already talking about ways to game the system to get their products to pass prematurely. Do you see how that requires us to continue to be more strict, not less?
One more note: if you submit content (both trademarks and music) that is obviously not yours and for which you do not have demonstrable proof of reproduction rights, we will always reserve the right to remove that content and require proof of your permission to use that intellectual property. This is not a new rule. If you try to sell someone else's property as your own, you are breaking our Terms of Service, and, in many cases, the law, and it will often lead to the immediate liquidation of your account.
------------------------
My two cents: To me it seems as if they are going after copyrights, maybe they got into some hot water? lol I suspected that it may have been copyright related since the majority of the people complaining were DJs. Now they ask for you to PROVE the content music/ branding etc is yours b4 they pass it, if it gets sent to staff for review. I actually like this, but I feel bad for the DJs.
----------------------------
Dev question: "immediate liquidation of your account", The Liquidator has spoken! What's the time frame that IMVU is hoping to maintain for staff reviews?

We don't really have a specific SLA for peer review response times, but our biggest concern is not allowing the volume to get out of control and compound over time. We have dials we can tweak to send more or less content for internal review.
-------------------------------------------
My two cents: Don't blatantly use copyrighted things, Hide them if you have them, cause if you get a hater that knows you are using copyrighted materials, all they have to do is flag your entire copyrighted line to get you disabled. Since now it will be even easier to do that.
