Much obliged. Get two, and I'll bring a six-pack of your favorites, and we can talk about the Twinkies and modding our station wagons.

I'd like to meet Fat Mac Moron and Jens Peter.

At first I thought WDLove was a woman, and I can't stop thinking that now. I was a little upset when I first found out, and I think it'd really set it once I met him.

And Cash, to see if he's as likable in real life as he says he is. It might be interesting.

The only ones I'd be really interested in meeting at all would probably be a few on the Power Mac forum or Zimph or Star Wars Guy... maybe Spheric, MacNStein maybe.. uhh there's a few that really don't even come to mind... I'm bad with remember any of your SNs I only remember them when I see em.... besides I have another MB that I've met like 6 people off of at least it's not that interesting actually, and I know tons of people because me or someone I know got em coming to the site type thing... It's really not that interesting... although me and Star Wars guy are still supposed to go to a gay bar some time heh.

I actually had my first in-person meeting with a MacNN-er last week, and I survived quite nicely. It was even kind of fun ... and this person was a Moderator, no less!

And I think I'd really enjoy meeting most of you, actually. The two I'd most like to meet for coffee and conversation are probably Timo and Maxelson. I'd also definitely like to hang out with Cash and SWG for a while, in part to see if their on-line persona is a true reflection of their real life.

And I'd like to meet a few of you because ... well, because you're cute! *g* (I'm not saying who, though ...)

Most of all, I would like to meet SOLIDAge, vmarks, and ca$h so can get them all a round of beers (among other things). There are also many more I'd like to meet, but instead, I'd like to buy them a round of ammonia.

Odd topic.

If I wanted to meet real people, I wouldn't look on an Internet forum.

But the feeling is probably mutual.

Just pointing out that I'm just messing with vmarks, i don't want anyone to think less of him because of my stupid comment. We're just messing around in #macnn a little.

Sorry vmarks.

There are very few of you people I wouldn't want to meet. But to make this interesting I will create my list:

Ca$h
Zimphire
iWrite
WDLove
Demonhood
MacNstein
Cipher13
SWG
Misanthrope
Sheric Harlot
Sherwin
SuperChic[k]en
Purplegiant
Phillzilla
lil'babykitten
Face Ache
Benign
ankle_brains
...and many more!

Actually, about the only person I'd really care not to meet would be Moti.

and by the way... NO ONE MENTIONED ME!!! But then my posting quota has been down lately, so I will assume that I am "out of sight, out of mind". And don't tell me I am wrong... I like my little delusional world.

You only want to meet someone so you will be able to debate with them? No wonder you're so loved here.

Beside your list, I would add Kilbey. Can't think of anyone on the forum that I would not want to meet.

Actually, it is mostly because he seems like a remarkably intelligent person. Not a dry egg-head type mind you because there are several of those here. I am sure I could get a dissertation about processor architecture and 64 bit encryption from a whole slew of people from MacNN but the vast majority of them are myopic when they discuss anything other than the one thing they know well. Marks seems to be well versed in a few areas of study and still doesn't come off as a dork. So yes, I think it would be intriguing to find some topic of discussion to go back and forth with and debate without access to internet fact checking.

I am not sure what your motivations would be with wanting to meet people from here but if you are looking for buddies to hang out with I think you might need to get out more and socialize. Do you really care THAT much about your popularity in here?

I seem to have the reverse experience as you. Seems the more people I meet the less I think like you.

My motivation with meet people on here is simply: I like meeting people. Plus, it would be interesting to see just how they compare to their MacNN persona. You are the one who should get out more.

And if I cared about popularity at all I wouldn't make it clear I am a Christian. I really don't care what people think of me, I do care what people think of my beliefs though.

all the people i'd want to meet, well, they already know as much. we talk through other channels.

i'd probably meet up with zimphire. as retarded as that idea may seem, we have a lot in common, and i think it would be a laugh.

there's a few people i'd like to meet with a baseball bat to the face, but we won't go there, as the kitten wanted this to be flame-free. i respect the girl, so no flamage from me.

I guess we all don't have cool sigs like you that reveal our character in them.

All I know about you, is your flawed sense of the obvious.
