Second Life limits us to 25 group slots…

Yet, increasingly, landowners, store owners, in fact people who own any bit of land on which the public may occasionally turn up, seem to think we want to be in their groups. All of them. All the time. So much so that they save us the hassle of clicking on a “join here,” sign and instead invite us automatically.

How annoying.

If I joined the group of every single place I teleported to in a day I would need about 15000 group slots a month.

I’ve just been out exploring. I teleported to six places and five of them automatically invited me to their group, some of them even whacked my avie’s face up on a big screen and announced my arrival to the hundreds of invisible people around.

Is there anything more annoying in Second Life than turning up somewhere and before you even rezz in, there’s a million blue boxes in the top right of your screen? ‘Location owner gave you a pointless note card full of information you do not need.’ ‘Location owner wants to invite you to join this group so that he can spam you with more pointless information that you do not need.’ ‘Location owner gave you a landmark because you are so retarded that you are incapable of creating your own should you happen to want one.’ ‘Location gave you a freebie, the same freebie that everyone is giving out.’ ‘Location owner gave you a note card to plus her partner’s store.’ ‘Location owner invited you again to join the same group in case you accidentally forgot to join it the first time round.’

Seriously. It gives me migraines….
