All IMVU does is all about them getting more money. Even though imvu is way more cheaper than Second Life. IMVU nowadays practically made every step into money. You need VIP to create,if u are a designer, you need vip to enter some rooms, you need vip for other things,like more rooms,ect. Practically,if you get vip,beside having to pay products with a few credits less,it is mostly about the other features that once upon a time were free ,and now they just made it pay-able. Like being able to creating,like having more rooms ect. Back when i created my first account,guests used to create, and then,you would have 2-3 rooms available, vip wasn't such a big deal,if you looked at the things like i do.
So,any update on the vip regardless is good, even though it's not much at all,but it gives u a free walk into other things on IMVU.
