And even if they're still open, they show on your profile as if you'd accepted. I thought that until today, when one person sent me invites for the same group twice in a row.

I declined "Search for the Golden Prim" 3 times, before I found out. Same with unite-requests. Koinup Burt was expecially notorious.

I'm getting tired of seeing the same groups appearing on my profile time and time again. I know what you mean.

The "spice" is linkage/inbound links/clicks/views/google ranking/eyes and ... well you know the cliche. The only thing is will LL be the right stuff to network it all and steward it through without alienating the entire universe. As it stands all AU is now is to me is a place where people obtain some small measure of entertainment value by requesting to be "united" with me. And then a not insignificant percentage of them that never read my last status keep sending me group invites so they can get their banner ad on my profile until I notice it and click ignore. I hear I am not alone in this regard. Not a very glamorous start for the AU/SL community relationship lmao I’d say AU might have more value if Kingdon also bought a number of other MMOx 3D web properties not currently owned by MMOx 3D publishers.

Which isn't really surprising, I suppose. It's pretty much what you'd expect. I don't really see how that fits in with Linden Lab's broader strategy, though -- other than it might eventually stop SL getting compared to Facebook.

I've been ignoring requests right and left over there--because I'd like to see it become useful, not just monetized, as Hamlet's post today seems to be aiming at. Doesn’t bode well for AU, does it?
