I think you miss my intention, I never mentioned it being a limited 
group? Currently all our groups are open to anyone who subscribes.

> Considering this statement in your previous email:
> And let's be honest, Noisebridge in the last two years (or even from the
> beginning) hasn't been the best establishment to go flaunt around saying
> you're a member of. It's sort of like telling all your friends you're a
> paying member of the festering techno trash dump and care home for the
> socially dongz, while mice and rats run around inside your sports blazer.

> Are you saying that it's not worth fixing because it's so messed up? 
> Because if so, then you're in no position to tell other people not to 
> try. If you're that sick and tired of hearing other people try to fix 
> a broken system, then I would suggest the alternative of just not 
> participating in any discussion about the space. Just hack some 
> things, and leave the rest of us to find productive solutions.
