Real Life Meetings
Inspiration: Peacemaker's meeting with Khayman the other day.
I'm coming to the States in July, so there's the possibility that I meet some of you there. So I want to know what can I expect.
Well, the thing I'd like to know is who knows who in RL. And if possible, I'd want the people who have seen themselves in RL to share some of the experience.
It must be strange. I mean i often picture an avatar attached to a body about how the person really looks like. And the name thing is also weird. Do you call yourselves by RL names or HC names? How's the feeling? What do you talk about? The more you post, the happier I'll be.

So far I've met Lord_Dracos and DarknessQueen *i say so far 'cuz I'm still hoping to meet many more *
It was maybe a little bit awkward for the first 10 minutes or so - and at first we talked too much about heroes LOL(bout as long as it took for everyone to crack open a beer ) and yeah, took some time to adjust to actual people with real voices, but not too long at all, and we got together several times after that; heck we even played a game of strip poker after the beers kicked in haha!
There are also quite a few people that we've talked to over the phone often, and even tho it isn't the same as face to face, it does do a lot to make the person at the other end of the monitor seem that much closer I always feel somewhat guilty tho, as we always talk in english which seems to be many of my friends'second language, so much harder for them. accents are groovy tho
Its definately lots of fun to meet your online friends tho, hope you have lots of fun Svarog

Taking A Trip To Illinois
I'm flying to the Chicago airport to visit an old airforce friend in Milwaukee. Anyone live near there? If so then we should meet. He and I play Heroes via email. My friend and I are planning to do some all-nighter gaming, sodapop, AND a bag of chips... I'm only there for 3 days but it'll be three days without sleep probably.
Or unless someone lives in Oregon(which I doubt) that's where I live. Ah well...

I'm in the states sometime this year, almost certainly meeting with Peacemaker and probably will also be in the New Mexico and Omaha regions. Other than that I've met a member from ages back called LydiaElf.

Oh, that. 1st July - 1st August.
Towson, a town near Baltimore. Will also take up excursions to Washington and New York. Maybe even some other places. Anyone from there?
That'll be my first visit to USA. Bush better raise the national security level while I'm there.
Oh, and so far only Pam made me happy. What are you waiting for? Info, info, info...

Svarog,
You should be careful to say things like that. Many people don't let jokes like that slide from first time foreigners coming into the country. You could anger someone. We are post 9/11 country now.

It wasn't supposed to be. I was dead serious. Oh, give me a break Consis.
I know some members here actually percieve me as a real threat (!!!), which I find absolutely hilarious. Thanks for confirming that. That joke was meant for those that think like that. In fact I'm glad you reacted. Mission Joke successful.

Consis its a joke man..dont take it too seriously. Your a too serious member. You'd make a good teacher, psychologist, doctor or counseler. None of those categorys require humor.

Some matters are just things that should not be joked about. Why would anybody joke about terrorist acts?
