In Reply to: Not too OT - has anyone here met anyone online? posted by Hib€rnian Psycho on February 05, 2002 at 19:54:05:
I joined an online Buffy club a few years ago (dare I say as one of the founding members, which I am not, alas, here). They have an annual get-together in England, so that was the final push I needed to get me out of the U.S. to visit another country. For most of them, it's just a car/train ride to the hotel, but I gotta fly. I've done that twice now. England's cool.
As for this board, I came shortly before J&SBSB was released, after hearing an interview with Mr. Smith. He plugged this site and this board throughout the interview, and claimed that some folks here have met and become couples (even married, I think?). Thus was I intrigued. Haven't met anyone from here in person yet, though.

: match.com, Lord knows how many others... my question is, have any
: of you lot met anyone, in the flesh, after meeting online? I don't mean
: Vulgarthon...
