 ;IG: To be "In Game" is to be on the [[Bark]].
-;IRL: if being IG is to have your feet firmly on the Bark, as opposed to the IRL that you could also write ''IRreaL'', it is to have your head outside. Having your head in the air, being in the moon, in the clouds? So, IRL, couldn't it be beyond [[canopy]]?
