Wow, how assy.
And arrogant.
I was kindof intrigued when I got wind of the NPIRL Gardens of blah blah thing and visited. Then I did some digging into the Not Possible IRL group and remembered where I recognized the name of the group owner, who was some really nasty individual who only adds and pimps up her friends or those who lick her ass.
A group that seeks to educate and promote really creative things in
SL is fantastic. A closed-invite group that does that only via who you're friends with which has a vetting cabinet for who gets into the group sounds like a bunch of cliquish elitist jerks.
Now there are people involved in NPIRL that I really admire and enjoy, like Ordinal, but when I asked my friends how I get involved most of them were like "Don't bother, it's only her friends."
