I make it a point to meet as many people from the Net as I can. It's not so dangerous for me, as I'm a fine strapping lad all of 6'5" tall and can generally take care of myself, plus most websites I'm on tend to be of a speciality nature where really only sensible people tend to hang out. Boards.ie is one of the two exceptions.

It works out for the best, I can now grab a pint and usually acommodation most anywhere in the world now, and when I emigrated to the US, an email request set me up rather nicely.

Think I've met one or two alright. Hungus for sure, nerb666 and the rest I've met before I was on boards. I wouldn't mind meeting one or two of the ladies on here.

I hear there's a Rejects Beers being organised through PM on After Hours for people who don't fit in and hence don't want to go to a Boards Beers.

I have a met a group of people on another message board and I have made some really good friends. I would be wary of meeting just one person and I don't think I would be interested in internet dating.

How does chest fisting work, precisely? I can't quite picture it.

I met Tar.Aldarion in real life once. Now I cannot look at a hamster without curling up on the floor and twitching in fear.
