i'm sure i've met at least one person, but i would have made initial contact on the internet through a mutual friend that i knew in person.

I don't think I have ever met anyone in person from the internet. But then again I don't talk too much over the internet, except for in here.

I will some time though. All the regulars that I know at the Lakers usenet newsgroup, have get togethers at playoff time every year. I haven't been able to go because I haven't had the money to fly to LA for the day, but I'm going to next year.

I've played MUDs, and I've met about 30 Swedish mudders, 40-50 Dutch mudders, 5-10 US mudders, one or two from Canada, a few from the UK and 1 from Australia.
Think that's about it.

Plenty from being in Quake 2 clans, LANning, from ICQ/friends' contacts. I'd say at least 50 that I first met and talked to on ICQ, or over e-mail exclusively, then met in real life. :)

No hot internet chicks, yet, tho.... :( :frown:

;)

I met a guy from the internet not from here. I've met BoberFett, The_good_guy, and talked to several people from here on the phone. (Well, I know hzlsmom--lol--and I've known jeweleeann for about 13 or so years.)
