A question for everyone here: How many people here have communicated with someone online, whether they be from here or some other online community, and gone on to meet them in real life afterward?
It actually happened to me today. A person who is on the staff or a forum I was once banned from happened to live about an hour away from where I'm staying. We met up and had lunch today at a sandwich shop. For me, it was weird — not simply because of our positions, but also due to the fact that we could actually talk about Internet politics at a physical coffee table.
So who else has had an experience like that?
