IMVU

So the other day i went to download this programme - IMVU, what is IMVU you may ask ?






Simpily say, its a combination of mIRC and MSN messenger and Friendster and 3D Avatars. Unlike most chatting programme, what make this programme more special is it 3D avatars. You can create a virtual representation of you in the net.





It feels more like an online game to me actually, you can buy new clothing, hairstyle, eyebrow, facial hair and much more for your avatar. Now this is how the company profits. You start with 1000 promo credits which you can spend to get some new clothing for your character instead of looking like a n00b. Needless to say, i browse through the shop to find the best looking threads for my new awesome character.

My totally awesome non-n00b character

Looking at those pale complexion !! Those sew marks on that scrawny body !! Those black lipstick and that totally emo black wing !!






You have the usual buddy list and in addition to those some extra feature. One such feature is a free homepage that is given to you, which is pretty similar to friendster, no really, its like friendster.






Anyway back to how the company profits, so you see you can buy items for your cute little character. While you can earn free credit, it will eventually run out and you have to pay via chas online. While you can earn credits, its very slow and tedious.





Of course you can also spin this lucky slot machine thingy to earn money

OMFG I WON 500 CREDITS !!111one11

Wah so happy sia, now i can finally buy that black cat to complete my overall emo image.







Finally got my cat, well buying the cat has effectively reduce my credits to 30-ish.





Anyway heres some examples of the programme and various intellectly stimulating converstation :

As quoted, "im feeling a bit horny so kiss me"

I swear i didn't try to seduce her or anything with my character, that "next to you baby" comment was how i would normally reply anyone ! Honest !




Then she proceeded to kissing me, sobs sobs took away my online character's online first kiss leh, wah liao, online first kiss leh !




So being the gentlemanly emo dude i am, i obviously took the moral path and denied her online sexual agression and counciled her regarding sex.





Man am i cool or what.



Then i met this other guy and before we know it we were talking about hitler. I told him hitler having only one ball, he then told me Napolean, a famous french emperor had one ball too.


It all makes sense now



1 + 1 = 2



With hitler and napolean fused together or something, they will be in their perfect state !











So lets see .... what other thingy are there ....

Just telling the locals i'm not gay =)

It's important to let people know you dont ride the ghey ride because you may be dragged into ghey cybersex and you wont realise it.





And did i mention out of many people i've talked to, only girls will be interested in talking with me, its like the other male players only want to talk to girl. When i random chatroom and get a guy, it's either both parties are quiet and one eventually leaves, or he asks for money.
