Its not fair. Fantage is giving too much updates and cool things to members. Plus their membership is too expensive.My mom was about to pay the membership for me but when she saw the price then she refused. Fantage is just a game device.Its not in real life fun you cant do any of this so whats the point of having membership?

I say it's okay and good. Yea bad language but you know ignore them. Then not everything is for members, they try to include non member things, even for events. I don't see bad in that, because sometimes you can use non member items to beat them at some games. The only time I get bored of fantage is when there is nothing else to buy or get. So then I don't know what to do but play top model or something. I think fantage could be a bit better, there are some like glitches in the game. Such as sometimes model rooms disappear or etc. I also wish they had a bit more for non members, would be nice. Or sometimes wish there was only a day dedicated to non members but then again we aren't special and don't pay money...

I bought Fantage membership after about two days of having my account. I went to the PM shop to get my promised 50 free items. I stopped playing for a day after that because of too much homework, and then one day later, I logged back on and it said I wasn't a member. I tried rebooting, playing on different browsers, but no. I'm just a non member. The purchases are a total ripoff! Do not buy membership! If any of you could leave in the comments a solution, I would really like that. Thank you!

Tip for consumers:
Do not buy membership! It is a ripoff!

Fantage is not a good game, i keep running out of ecoins, the game has adorable graphics some cute outfits here and there but its that nonmember/member problem im running into. I don't even know why i'm still playing this stupid game. The memberships are way overpriced. Nonmembers are not respected and on some browsers it wont even load. The outfits are very revealing.

I bought this for my child. I sat with her and watch while she played. But the membership is so expensive and when it's expired, all the items paid with so called "stars" will not be usable.

And this is about the game, apparently it's a "kid safe" virtual world, but what kind of rubbish is it? I contains bikinis for the characters to wear. Like, do you want to teach kids to wear bikinis that are super sexy? I'm okay with my daughter wearing a bikini, but how about the younger kids who play Fantage?

Five years I played the game Fantage and I have been bully and teased, hacked, and my items I buy disappear all the time.
It's not a good game at all to play.

Fantage pre-2014 was a fun and welcoming environment with lots to do. All the events during that time were actually fun and well-programmed and actually felt rewarding to participate in, everyone was included. Sure there were premium only items (that you could technically buy as a non-member with e-coins), but non-members could still buy items.

Then, post Fantage's 2014 Anniversary event, where the upper management also changed (source: employee reviews on glassdoor), everything else changed with it. The whole map changed. Everything became condensed and combined together, it wasn't fun to explore anymore. All the games were put into the arcade instead of being a fun world experience. Features were slowly cut off from up, bugs never fixed. Events became dull, calendar stamp collecting events instead of actual activities to do and all event items were forced behind paywalls of gold. You couldn't even use stars or e-coins to buy limited items by the end of Fantage's run.

Did I forget to mention gold? Oh boy, gold SUCKED. When it was first introduced, you could either get it by paying, and if you were a non-member you could occasionally get it by winning in events or selling items in MyMall with the MyMall seller tickets you'd get sometimes when you get your daily prize. Then, next thing you know? MyMall got a paywall, only premium members could even USE it.

As a result of all these paywalls, Fantage became dull and boring, and when something becomes dull and boring, the community starts to dwindle, and when the community starts to dwindle, nobody uses the already in-game games, the fun drains even more, and when the fun drains even more, more people quit, and when more people quit, the people behind Fantage start to lose motivation to actually run the site, and when motivation dwindles, money dwindles, and then the cycle repeats.

So, at the end of the day, Fantage WAS a fun and inclusive space for all players, but after the upper management changed it was just a downhill spiral of paywalls, loss of motivation and a fading community from there.

It was at least fun while it lasted.

I played for one year and got bored. Look, you need membership to actually have fun. Everything is mem this, mem that. Dx Me, I was a non, so I had not fun. I cannot believe I wasted money on ecoins. :'( I regret that, because I don't play it anymore. Fantage is running out of ideas and it seems to me that they are just desperate for money. Also, the whole issue about nons and mems is really cyber bullying and I can't stand it. Also, I would say it's appropriate for tweens or teens.

It's ONLY fun for members, or what they call "premium members". I mean, if it's free and all, but why make only like fifteen items for non-members/starters to buy? And the cost is overpriced to get pm! That is the WHOLE REASON I hate games that offer you to buy membership-- membership itself! If you ask me, I would call it teasing! They're teasing you and making you get jealous because they want you to throw money at 'em! Whoever made this game should certainly read these honest reviews. AND, the darn thing lags 24/7! It doesn't even load! So please, those fantage lovers, quit the game, or you'll be hooked onto wasting your valuable money.

I have played since second grade. At first, it was cute and very fun. There were a lot of non-member items. I stopped playing for a few years, and I have picked it back up. Now they only release premium member rare items and most of the clothes and hair are also premium! The ones that are non-member are usually much plainer and uglier. However you CAN earn eCoins fairly quickly and the events that are always on make getting eCoins much easier. However I think I like the old Fantage much better. Fantage's quality has gone down a LOT since I first started.

Costs £3.99 a month and you get banned for 99 hours every week with no explanation! I've emailed the company via their contact page with no response I've been waiting over a week now and sent more emails. My daughter is sat with me when she plays and I know she's playing responsibly so I can't understand why she's being banned.

I bought premium membership and then I got bored of Fantage so I stopped playing it. When I came back I noticed my premium membership still existed even though it was supposed to expire. Then I noticed that Fantage was charging my credit card each month without my permission for my membership! I am very outraged. Then I noticed the premium-only items I got couldn't be accessed anymore once I cancelled my membership and I was even more outraged. I do not recommend this!

For those of you hating on fantage need to get a life. Members are treated just as non-members are just a few extra stuff. I am a non-member and I can handle fantage just fine. I dont have members picking on me. Its because some non-members annoy or threaten members. And seriously? Membership only cost $7.95 for one month its not that expensive. You can easily go buy a karma koin from the store and pay it from there. If you get banned for 99 hours its just a protecting ban because they believe your account is being hacked. All you have to do is send them an email stating that your account is banned and they will unban you and you wont get banned anymore. If they didn't have membership then they wouldn't be able to run fantage anymore because it does cost a lot of money to run a virtual world. And the language like "ello" in "hello" is just a shorter way to communicate like "lol" or "brb" its nothing bad its just a way to shorten words. Fantage is for 6-14 but some 15-17 year olds still like to play as well. It does not cancel your membership if you miss a day -_- And it blocks almost everything you say because it doesnt want people to cuss. The lucky bot does actually give 100,000 ecoins and all the other stuff it says it gives. Trade n sell or tns is closed due to scamming now they have a better and safer way to sell items for a virtual money called gold. You cant judge something you havent even had the chance to look at. You guys go on fantage and just find something to be hateful about. The fantage school is still there. Ok. So please think before you post something hateful about something you barely tried. And also please go outside and do some family stuff instead of sitting here looking for a website to judge. Thanks.

You cannot do many things without membership. Fantage continues to limit their nonmember users so that they are forced to pay to play. Outfits for girls have becoming more revealing. (Ex. Showing the belly). I have been a long time user and I am writing a review now that I am older. Fantage used to be user friendly. Now, they are sexualizing the girls' avatars. The boys avatars are a little more appropriate. Even though there are chat filters, there are ways to get around them. I was in a room for 10 minutes and people were talking about how they hate 'blacks and gays'. Where are the moderators? Who is monitoring these children?

Tip for consumers:
Do not let your young children on this site. Do not spend any money on this site until they do something about all this.

Well, I've been playing Fantage since 2008, and honesty as a younger kid, I thought WOAH! Best game ever! When I could talk to my friends and play games like fashion shows without having to be a member. Now, this member and that ecoin or gold thingy is just desperate for money and Fantage needs help. It's so wasteful and when some of the best players like pinkstardust drop for more important issues, you then realize you don't need it. I don't even go on very often, other than to see what's going on lately and also to see those friends that I've made. Some of those legendary who we look up to are regular people as well and I've become very great friends with many. So, if you're just starting I would recommend to just get as much free clothes and have as much fun as you can make of it. It's nothing special now, but it really was a great game. Most people do hangout in Downtown, especially Star Cafe, and I think that's were you meet most people, but MyMall is another place, but I really don't understand the purpose. Trade and Sell was so much better and NO MORE CURRENCY please. I do hope Fantage starts to see different ways to make is fun because if they really did close down it would be pretty upsetting. So I guess, have fun! Stay Magnficient!

I HATE Fantage. I got an account 2 days ago because the graphics are cute and at first i thought game play would be good. After a while I ran into the member/non-member problem when i could not get a rare item from the wizard orb. I seriously don't know why people play this game and actually still waste money on it. I would rather save my money for a WORTHWHILE game on steam, that a discriminatory piece of crap that makes my computer run like $#!*

This is a web site for children. They are not a good one they charge children to be a premium member then they make it so they have to spend more money to purchase items. It becomes very expensive. You use to be able to contact them now you can't even get a hold of them. They will not answer their phones they do not answer emails their web site does not work properly they will collect a monthly premium and then cancel your account. I would not recommend this site to anyone

The site has over-priced premium currency (gold), over-priced premium, an overly protective censor in which doesn't tell you if your words have been censored, even basic words like "devour" or "suck" or "House" and even any numbers. With the community strangely flirty and obsessed with topics young adults should only know about including being "dom" or dominated, which refers to a sexual act, a "Whun" or a Girlfriend/Boyfriend, subjects like sex or making out, if you have premium everyone immediately flocks over to try and make you their whun, generally they are new players. To make this worse, there is a massive market for swimsuits which feature bikinis whilst the male swimsuit shop has 3 pairs of swim-trunks. Remember that this site is supposed to be kid friendly, so having literally around 40 types of bikinis is a bit strange to say the least. Also the site frequently re-uses events with no creativity what-so-ever in the whole act of it. The site makes this worse with daily rewards for players whom bought premium which include gems, free item tickets, money, ect. Which makes the whole game favored towards pay-to-play players. Another sneaky practice from Fantage is how their premium works, in tiny words it states that it will AUTOMATICALLY re buy premium when it runs out without your knowledge, but as it it is stated even if its in tiny font they can technically legally do it. The premium is cheaper in the long run if you buy the 12 month premium, but to those who only wanted 3 months they will be infinitely given the fees for refreshing the premium regardless of what you wanted. To my knowledge there is NO way to prevent this unless you just do not buy the premium. Also money is difficult to obtain making it nearly impossible to buy thing normally, and to top it off there is a leveling system which rewards player who earn "Badges" and level up, the only problem with this is that I can seriously BUY many many levels with small level restrictions before I can do so. And also GUESS WHAT, the levels require REAL LIFE MONEY to purchase

POSITIVE FEATURES
-Large Verity of items
-Lively community with player constantly online
-Games require little or no intelligence to play
-Players aren't afraid to pretend to be females to obtain item from horny children in which as them to be their whuns
-If you desire a "Whun" you can easily find one as Female characters (not saying actual girls just people who have a female avatar) are so common it makes you think that people are really desperate to see cartoon females
-Finally, the vast majority of items are obtainable with free-to-play money

PROBLEMS
-Too many players whom flirt with the first premium female they see
-People discriminate newer and poor players(although not so much now as before)
-Gold and Premium are expensive as heck
-Buying Levels is too overpowered
-while all gear sold in normal stores is obtainable by regular currency 90% of the total gear is only obtainable by being premium
-With such irritating censoring communication is nearly impossible, which is made worse by the game not telling you what has been censored or not
-Prays on children in which use parent's credit card

Tip for consumers:
Parents, keep that credit card away from that child of yours or you'll lose your life savings

I'm done with Fantage. For no@#$%ing reason, it deleted all of my stuff! I played a simple game and there was nothing that said, "Hey! We're going to delete all of your stuff!" I am absolutely done with Fantage. Plus, if you're a on-member, the only thing you can do is spend precious money of %^&*in' stupid things! It's extremely unfair. I for one think that, if Fantage doesn't improve, I'm not going to be online anytime soon. > :(
