Yes, you will just have to wait or get a new account.


Submitting UFI products will ALWAYS carry the risk of getting banned. No matter what protections get added to a product. There are steps that can be taken to make it safer, as the PRBs have done, but nothing is perfect and there will always be risk involved until the day IMVU decides to allow such products.

If you plan on submitting UFI products, I suggest you keep yourself informed of what IMVU is doing to combat them and how creating on IMVU really works. These days, working with UFI products is not something you can just do on a whim. If you do not put the time and effort into informing yourself then expect to loose many accounts. As much as we wish PRBs were a simple upload a forget solution, this is not the case. They do make it a lot safer but they do not remove the risk completely. You should always be smart when using them, especially if you've uploaded them yourself.

I would suggest you read up on the changes to peer review that IMVU is doing to combat UFI products here: viewtopic.php?f=142&t=10100

And I would also suggest you take a look at the IMVU News section where information like this will be posted here: viewforum.php?f=142

And if you're someone who refuses to put a few minutes worth of time into browsing the forums, then don't forget, right on the index page is a link that will tell you all the new threads you have not yet read here: search.php?search_id=unreadposts

umm ok i have read all this and what i have gathered from it is basically you need to have an older account that's been creating/deriving for some time, basically to get any suspicion off of you so to speak... new accounts get more scrutinized or accounts that have been around a while that just happen to start creating, which as DM said doesn't always work cause i did use an older account, and it still got a fail and a 14 day ban

IMVU PR Statement:
"Many UFI products that are submitted but kept hidden in the catalog tend to come from users who have just set up their accounts and become creators or have just started creating. Hence all products from someone who has just started creating will be reviewed more carefully and will take longer to. "

Only way or suggestion i could conclude to is if your wanting or having to make a new account, [and most do this basically to avoid losing their main, which also has to be remembered, considering the money and time put into them], or even an existing one, i would think Devin/Creating what maybe 10-15 or so products that will pass consistently, {and of course making any UFI products that you may want to submit at a later time as innocent as possible...} Correct? so basically to try and get around this , specially those whom are using a newer account, you would have to just wait on submitting any UFI Products... so what would be a good number to submit regarding basic GA/AP products before you can assume this suspicion/scrutiny is not on you? Or is my earlier statement regarding this a good assumption? also what about the hiding of the product? this can be an issue as well for the IMFU powers that be to be more suspicious as well wouldn't it?

Pretty pathetic, how some people [IMVU] love power so much and that fact of control that they will take honest hard working adults who just want to be adults and treat them like 2 years olds, what a croc...

I hope you learned more than that from the thread. Because that is not all you need to be safe when submitting UFI products. It is a lot more complicated than that.

yeah i know... talking to a friend atm as well so yeah i am getting my info... he did this stuff for a while on IMFU and currently SL and RedLight just wondering what the best submission process would be to get suspicion off, but he is informing me on a few things

If a UFI product does not pass within an hour, then it has failed. Period. When this happens, you need to override the UFI product with a GA product. This will keep you from getting caught.

If you do not override with a GA product, then IMVU staff will see the product and send you a fail message about a day later.
