Whether its one made by a friend that’s given to a small circle, being a loyal customer of a shop, or doing something in IMVU that get’s you one from IMVU themselves. I think what really got me hooked is some are rare or only given out to a few people. The people who do create them either take requests and make them custom made for you, you can get them through just firends, some are freebies, and then others are given for being loyal to a creators store or whatever a creator is doing that your buying services for. Also, when I’m bored this definitely takes care of it because not everyone creates badges. Let me tell you I’m loving it the aesthetic is just -tears a little- so gorgeous! This really is one thing I love about IMVU. This is my first badge card that I’ve ever created for the bottom of my profile. Not going to lie my badge collection currently is pretty lit.
As my parents always told me if it’s not harmful or illegal it’s fine. But I’d rather have this problem then something else so I’m okay with this. Let’s be honest my badge count number raises all of the time but recently in my acts of boredm since summer began I went from a casual badge collector an extreme in two days. A way to decorate and show off interests and passions to others. The profiles are kinda standard and bland to begin with so this was IMVU’s way of making profiles more about the individual. I honestly love them for the fact that they tie into the personality of your profile so you can customize it a little bit more. All that does is your hooked and your like me spending your afternoons searching Homepages for graphic art to show off beneath your profile photo and interests in the badge collection are. Whether you’re the first or second one doesn’t really matter. You then question it and find out that way and go badge hunting. The second way being you stumble into it through a FAQ or users chatting about it. The first way is obviously meeting someone and seeing some of the best pixel art that you normally only see on DeviantArt. Let’s be honest this addiction normally starts for each user in one of two various ways. And that was the beginning that’s when it all started.
We spent hours talking about it shortly after. She was fun to chat with so I asked if I could add her, got the okay, and saw some of the best artwork in her badge collection. My addiction for collecting these probably first occured when I saw someones profile in a room I was in. Let’s not sugar coat my heavy addiction on something that literally doesn’t give any sort of personal gain other then a pretty graphic made by users to show off to everyone else. Specifically on IMVU and this is the journey of badge collecting. I’ve come to some hard truths in the past few years when I first started my virtual world journey.
