vSide (http://www.vside.com)

It is an ok game but...ur kids need to beware that there are older ppl on this game(20+) and everyone cannot be trusted! It is a fun game and cool virtual place to hang out and meet cool ppl over the internet but make sure that they don't give out personal info(pics,#,address,etc) for doin so could make they're time in the world a not so good time if certain ppl get hold to them!

Its fun but like every game on the internet girls will try to be Hot or sexy to get boys attention

I understand parts of your rating... yes vSiders can be mouthy and have huge attitudes... They don't see it because they're not in vSide as noobs anymore... I have made noob accounts and went into vSide and I get treated totally different than if people knew who I really was... I have played vSide since March 2008... I love the game and I have made some great friends on this game.. friendships I wouldn't ever trade for anything. But vSiders do have attitudes that they don't realize they have... and they are mouthy.. they say in their reviews that they aren't mouthy and what not, but just look at the reviews they left, they are mouthy themselves in the reviews they leave.. but they are also right in saying that you can't get away from those attitudes.. every game will have them.. its a part of life.. You run into attitudes like these in high school too, so I don't think that should be a part of the rating in all honesty.. vSide is pretty easy to play compared to when i first joined when their wasn't a tutorial... and compared to other games.But what vSide has that other games probably don't have.. I havent ran across any anyway, but vSide has guides that are real people running them, not bots, and they are their to help you out. Most games don't have a feature like this, and often times you're getting help from a bot that doesn't help you, and other users don't want to help you out or their isnt another user that is close by... When a guide helps you out, not only do you get help, but you also have an opportunity to build a relationship with that person, and possibly become friends with them at some point. The staff of vSide are also great. They are involved in the community, and they really listen to us. They do their best in making vSide about us, and putting things in vSide that we as the community want most. They hold radio shows on vSide too that are fun to attend... I really don't think you gave vSide enough time before you reviewed it... You can't find all the great stuff about vSide in one day.. you need to discover it for a lil longer, b/c their are so many more things about vSide that you must not have experienced and I know you didn't experience b/c you didn't mention them in your review.

In my opinion, vSide is a great website for teenagers. The graphics are great, the mods are very helpful, and they do not tolerate any abuse. Getting vPoints are easy to get and the vBux aren't too pricey. You can give anyone vBux or vPoints too. You can buy apartments, decorate them, go to parties, throw your own parties. Though I hope this virtual world dosen't become like the likes of the filthy IMVU. vSide has even added 2 player actions, such as giving a person a kiss on their lips, a hug, or a simple handshake. I feel that any teenager would enjoy this new world. There is so much to the vSide experience.

Clearly, you did not read vSide's TOU. Users on vSide must be 13 years old and up. Of course it isn't going to be for little kids. THINK, people, THINK!

As a vSide user for almost eight months, I have not come across the actual vSide game as having an attitude problem. It is not only based around shopping, clubbing and looking cool, its based around interacting with users from across the world. A social network. Half the people i know dont even go on vSide and use it as a "place to party." You meet some of your closest friends on the internet as weird as that sounds. I dont see how vSide is labeled as hard, there is nothing hard about vside. Yes if you would like to do the secrets, then they can be difficult, but that is your decision to do it. Hence the title "secrets." Yes there is cursing and rude behavior on the profiles, but if anyone has a problem with that there is a report button. Just because its on the web browswer doesnt mean you still cant report the user for profanity..etc. Or in any case of a young adult, If parents do have a problem with it, they can easily block the site from their internet provider. The moderators control the content in the actual game, and on the profiles. However, they do focus more on the actual game. I dont blame them. Yes there is several clubs with bars, but it doesnt mean that as a user if you are in a "club" with a bar, you dont have to go up and order anything. Virtually of course. Thats your decision. If you teach your child about the safety's of online, and virtual worlds i dont see how vSide should be a problem. As for the profanity, you cant keep your child away from that no matter how hard you try to. They will come across profanity virtually and in the real world. Its a matter of life. What i got from this review is that everyone who plays this.. their parents are lacking in the parental control area. Thats not the case. Its all about trusting your children. There are alot of things in the real world that will do more damage to your child then a virtual world. Anyways, What im trying to say is, nothing in this review is closely related to how vside actually is. Its not about the profanity level, or the clubs with bars, or the cool image vSide is "spreading." For me its about interacting with people of all ages, all over the world, learning their cultures, their way of life. I believe vSide is a good expierence. Its trying to create an identity.. of yourself..your avatars are an image of who you are. Adios!

vSide is one of the best virtual worlds i've came across, I was in shock when I found you rated second life higher than it. You fail to mention how amazing the good parts are. The graphics are incredible for a virtual world, the vBux are cheap, you can watch a movie with your friends in your own decorated out appartment, you can use mutli player actions and also give out your money to friends. I understand the bad points completely but almost every virtual world I have visited have this teenage nasty attitude, the virtual worlds can't get rid of that. The bots aren't mouthy , they're just letting a new user know that you can change your outfit. I rate vSide atleast a 4.5.

Dude, I loved this site! I mean yeah, it's mostly geered towards nightclubs and partying but it's generally harmless fun. As long as you follow the guidelines about NOT giving away any personal info, I'd say it's pretty darn safe. There's not a hint of sex in the game, as far as I am concerned. The clothes are cute and pretty harmless.

I personally think that you didn't give vSide a long enough chance. My username is vSide_Josh and I have been on vSide for almost 3 years now. Yes, there are some fowl users, but your children (AKA Me A 13 Year Old) can simply right click on the users name or avatar and hit the "Ignore" or "Report Abuse" button. If it is a serious offence than when you report them the necessary action will be taken. vSide's main focus IS NOT shopping, clubbing, and looking cool. It's main focus is to express yourself, make cool best friends (I found one of my best friends on here), and show your creative side on vSide! vSide is a place where you can show your upmost creative side and not be afraid of it... Show it, show your V Side! -vSide_Josh
