I've heard of it happening, but it's not happened to me, no. Probably because I'm purposely trying to avoid getting too close to people online.

I've always kinda wondered what Dags is like IRL, I mean that's the only other escapee that I know of who admits to being from NJ. Also Dags seems pretty cool.

I hope to meet most of the people I'm friends with on here but I haven't had that honour yet. The best I've got is having my girlfriend on here but she joined after we started going out...So yeah...no...

I wouldn'y know if I've ever met any other escapists IRL, because I've never met anyone through this site, I've run into the LRR cast a few times back when I lived in Victoria, but it's not like I introduced myself as DoomyMcDoom or anything.

Also lacking a passport and being unemployed at the time of the expo kinda prevented me from attending, hopefully I will be able to attend one in the future.

However, although I have several people on my friends list, I would count them more as interesting aquaintances, than friends, because I know very little about them as people, but I find their posts, and conversational style, intriguing, and enjoyable to read and respond to.

That being said, most of the people I have thought it would be interesting to meet in person have been banned.

That said, as far as romance and love are concerned, I've been out of the game awhile now, and although I do enjoy the close companionship one finds in such a relationship, and well, I do quite enjoy sex, and tend to bring great enjoyment to those I have sexxed, I'm not in a financially stable place in my life, and what with other things going on, I just cannot bring myself to think of it as a possibility, doesn't matter where I meet said person, hell at this point in my life I could have a naked woman who fits my physical type specifications so perfectly it's insane, leap into bed with me, and my response would be along the lines of "Hi, you can stay here and keep me warm while I sleep if you want, please don't hog the blanket." followed by me rolling over and going to sleep, if someone asked me out, I would probably friendzone them, I'm in a bit of a slump when it comes to giving a shit enough to want anyone in my life as anything other than a friend.

So, it goes I guess.

No. I don't interact much with the people here, so I don't know anybody.
On an old site that I was an active member in from the age of 13 to 19 I made tons of friends and met two girlfriends, however.

I saw Psychictaco once... as I was walking into a panel, then never again (you need to wear the taco at all times damnit).
Dude... I don't have any peripheral vision in that thing! I need to see my sides to make sure no one gets hit with it!

OT: People, the Taco is single! I repeat, the taco is single!

Because meeting someone who also posts in these forums would be a dream come true! :D
I LOVE YOU TACO MAN!!!!!!

Not the Escapist, sorry. I met her on a .hack chat place and things went from there, gradually from making a good friend to knowing that she and I would do well together. We are, indeed, quite an item.
