Hi And welcome to the crazy world , I am around 4 years old now and find SL to be all about role play ..There are the sim,s that are just for role play and are stricked about costumes and attire ..i prefer to go to live music venues and mix with the public .Building is great fun too if you are creative enough ..Its nice to go see people on sand boxes creating their things.Also a friend of mine was on that IMVU and I did try it one time over but within 5 seconds of being there i was swore at and asked to perform some kind of sexual act in my own home so thought better do a fast run and never went back .. Enjoy your secondlife virtual there are lots of places of interest .. be good be careful and be happy
