real life?
I ran a new age board (which is still going online) for a few years though I hardly post there anymore ... (left it live for others to follow in my trails) and along the years met up with quite a few of the posters and they were in the US and visited London, one from Melbourne came and stayed with me, some from California etc .... and we used to have live voice chats online and live typing online ie the Messenger thinge.
Anyone here met up though in real life? Shade and April met yet?
April have you met personally any of the staff here?
p/s I'm feeling much better than I was yesterday thanks. I had a day from hell yesterday. Ohhhh yerrr .. it was awful. I felt I was dying!

Nope can't say that I have, although I have joked with April about it off and on.

lol.. yeah Joey has joked about it. but no I haven't met any of my staff members in real life.. I've known Joey for about a little over a year now when I saw his blog at angelfire, then shortly after that he met Janine... I've only talked to Shade on the phone, he's too far away for me to go and meet.
The only staff member I actually know in real life was Keefers, he was a global mod here for awhile in the summer, but kinda abandoned the board when he started up his own. But in answer to your question, nope I haven't met anyone here on the forum in person.

Interesting replies! Thanks!!! It is nice to meet people from cyberspace in real life and some long friendships can be established. I connected with a female friend about 7-8 years ago when I used to post at Hay House (when they had a conversation room) - it's a new age room; and we're still good friends. She lives in Bristol which is a bit far from me and we haven't met up yet but we talk and are very close like old friends. We speak on the phone from time to time when we have the time! I'm also good friends with someone from my proboards board for 4 years or so now but she lives far away in the Uk as well and we haven't met up yet and also havent' spoken yet in real life. I have to feel 'safe' with someone online first before I'd agree to meet up with them in real life and know their motivations for wanting to meet up as I've had a few guys wanting to meet up with alterior motives ...

Me, no. However, my dads friend actually has a girlfriend he met on the internet from Ukraine, and she is currently living in the US for a few months before going back. It's kinda cool cause life is so different over there.
