We should be able to move around in locations on the map.
There's states so why not? We could even get jobs there and meet new people, with chat features.
it would give us alot more to do.

I checked out the mobile version of the site and it doesn't look too bad. However, no matter how much I try to open the menu (senate, shop, etc.) on the page it just won't open. This might be because of my phone though, I don't exactly have the newest phone! So you should really check it cause it might be quite good! :)

It think those ideas are good but sound too much like the old MB strategy and this is supposed to be something new, it probably wouldn't work with new sites like likeafashionista taking over and improving while MB was on hiatus.  If this is going to work it has to be something new but still enjoyable, although they will probably have to go for a different audience. Although things seem rough, the idea seems good. An online debate social system sounds pretty cool, but that all depends on how it's run.

To be honest I don't see anything wrong with wishing to bring back the features of Miss Bimbo that people clearly enjoyed and are missing. I also understand SweetasNuts wish to create something original and new, but with the current player database I think the best thing would be to create a hybrid between Miss Bimbo and Bimbolands, that would perhaps be the most crowd-pleasing option?

The problem is also as you mentioned that the game will need to target another audience. At the current state the developers are targeting the old players of Miss Bimbo through the name choice (Bimbolands) and the similar content to Miss Bimbo. I'm sure this was done to gain a decent player base within a short time frame. However, with this choice the developers would have been aware that some players would be disappointed with the new game and miss the old features.

Let's start with something small. When I buy a wig, I'd like to not be able to see the other hair underneath it...

MissBimbo features I'd like to see back:
I do understand this is supposed to be new and different. Still. Features of old MB that I think are absolutely necessary are:
- the god-damn layering system. Remember that? It has been implemented already and was working fine. What's the problem with integrating it into Bimbolands?
- Houses/flats and furniture
- Jobs - oh yes jobs.
- Beauty salon, hairdresser, etc etc.
- shop street - a.k.a.  shops belonging to members where they can sell their designs
- bring back the old Himbo!

Possible new stuff and enhancements:
- as a way to play democracy + enhance the site both at once, we could implement a voting system where members help prioritise new features to be released
- I'd like to see a cool way to progress in the game, in which all members don't necessarily have to be on the same track, but where you progress in the way you want to. My vision of this would be to break down 'attitude' and 'happiness' into more complex metrics, like for example specific skillsets that you can develop by doing specific jobs, or taking courses, or earning qualifications; personality traits (that could either be developed via in-game activities, and/or maybe other bimbos can vote on them? like give you stars/points for courage, compassion, wisdom, optimism, helpfulness, smarts,... :D); self esteem, popularity (e.g. # of posts other people liked), and more? [edit] This may be interesting to have especially when someone is a candidate in an election, dont you think? Instead of having only their 'campaign' and whatever you get by stalking what they do on the forums, you can have a sort of profile.
- as an alternative way to earn money, you could be allowed to sell/auction off items (not necessarily just clothes) for less than what they originally cost. (MB had this for some items - food,houses - but not furniture or clothes)
- as mentioned by someone before, would be cool if we could be friends and date other people on the site
- the 'shop street' idea could be expanded. We could make it more like running a business where the owner can choose what state they would want their shop to be in, they'd have to pay tax (different % of income depending on state), and rent (which would vary according to the number of items you can have on sale, as a proxy for area of the shop, and also by state, some being more costly to host shops than others), and would have tools for doing limited-time promotions and sales. You could even expand it to items other than clothes eventually, although I would think that would be complicated.
- yeah, be able to have some distinct identities to the states, state-specific features as well as ability to wander around (say, have a university in Reasontopia where you can get new qualifications, so you can go and get a job in Freethinkerland or start a business in Bimbo City)
- freebies, events and sales on official holidays :D

* Allow us to visit other "lands". Each land could have say, games specific to the land, supermarket specific, activities (gym. sports, etc) specific to the land, shopping for different "cultural" items, etc. etc

* Challenges between people from different lands. Or a scoring system: Every month the district/land that has the most reputation points earned per district, most debates won, etc. Each month the district with the most points: every player from that district wins say an 2 dollars and a special item, the second highest ranked wins a special item, the third wins a dollar...

* Ability to have fashion contests and win reputation points.

* Bring the beauty parlour back!

oh... and what about items: a lot of the items are really pricey given what they are. perhaps some shop items could be $0.50 instead of a dollar or $1.50,
