1) My account Tate was banned for "We have evidence that you recently solicited for sex with a minor while participating within the community. According to our Terms of Service exploiting children or minors is strictly prohibited. "

1. I never asked a minor directly for sex.
2. I did not participate in any sexual activity with a minor OR the minor in question
3. I tell the minor in question I will wait until they are 18 right after I tell them I would let them dom me, which is the statement IMVU is using as the right to ban me.

How is that incriminating if I say I will wait UNTIL THEY ARE AN ADULT? An adult is NOT a minor.
How is it asking them for sex if I all I said is I would let them dom me? Domming doesn't HAVE to be sexual?

The have shown me no evidence or access to the chat log to help me prove my innocence.
Clearly IMVU has nonchalant dumbasses working for them.

I have made 2 cases so far and called them twice.

The first agent I spoke to on the phone supposedly escalated my case to the department that handles these cases, with a note attached to it to re-investigate. This didn't happen at all since I got the same reply from IMVU I always get. He obviously did nothing and just let IMVU customer support reply to it (the norm):

"There is no appeal to this decision."
I have been permanently disabled on that same account once before - my account's age was 17 when I was 13. I stated that I couldn't wait until my account turned 18 to buy AP after stating I was only 13. I was reported and then permanently banned. I knew that was wrong and fought for several days to get an agent who would actually try to help me. They realized I was wrongfully banned as I was still on the teen side of IMVU, simply changed my age, and I was given back my account.
TL;DR - Anything can be appealed.

The second agent I spoke to repeatedly put the phone away from her ear to not hear me speak and told me to resubmit a case.
So I did and I got it escalated again, but I have my doubts it will reach the team that reviews flag reports.

It's funny how IMVU will readily ban loyal customers (I had that account for 6 years with thousands of dollars put into it) but will do NOTHING about crash coders or individuals who severely harass others.

2) It affects me because it's a huge loss of money.
3) The problem is coming from IMVU staff.

Is there any advice you can give me? Thank you.

Imvu doesn't looking for people like you man. Someone flags your chat or proves it somehow. You should be more careful who you are getting laid with. If they say they have a proof then there is pretty much nothing you can do about your account. I suggest you contact them with any kind of evidence you can have. Like hangout with the same girls again and flag their chat log as a prove that they are over 18 and they want it too. Im sorry for your account again but, yea be careful in the future, there are a lot of imvu players and imvu isn't the one that goes after them, it is the people you hangout with. Sneaky people will wait for your mistakes and report it.

Your loyal membership to imvu can help on a lot of things probably. Like transfering credits using live chat, or tolerate some mistakes but this minor rules are very strict and imvu can not take any risks on that. A year ago an app called "Link Chat" with 10m+ downloads are removed from the GooglePlay and AppStore, because they couldn't stop child pornography that people are posting. Imvu will not take any risks that will put their business in danger. Anyways sorry again, I hope you can recover your account.

Soliciting sex from a minor is a felony and IMVU inc has no way of knowing that you lied about your age when you made your account. They can only assume that your age on the account is correct. IMVU inc has to follow the laws.

Crash codes on the other hand ... the law does not really care about those.

I believe that somebody flag your chat and had proof and reported you to imvu…..people like this are many in imvu….finding people to hurt…even creators are continuously reported….imvu world is getting to be a place of hatred not love….i am sorry you lost your account that you had for 6 years…i know you have invested a lot on it….If you really think you are inocent…keep on sending a support ticket….find out who you think has flagged you…find friends that knows and can support you….not really easy to find in imvu……nor prove your innocence. Goodluck. Stay safe
