Congrats Zazen!!

Believe me, as the Father of 5 boys, I can relate to your worries.



But I can't figure out how you felt that interjecting your worries into this particular post would be relevant.


Wow, I couldn't even imagine 5 boys, I'm nervous about one...lol

I used this thread because it was not a discussion, it was a simple statement of fact regarding an internet relationship. So, discussing in general the potential danger of exclusively internet based relationships seemed appropriate. Without my well-meaning cautionary tales and responses to them there would be no discussion here at all. There's nothing else here but people sounding off in roll-call fashion with their opinion of a player...That alone is a big <YAWN> as far discussion threads go, so no loss there...I at least tried to make my posts entertaining to read as an incentive. ;)

I think my squad believes I'm a lunatic of some sort but if they actually met me in person they would realize that they'd be chopped up into little pieces for dogfood distribution before they could form a valid opinion. So don't be too quick to judge!

Well , while we may not see "eye to eye" on the reasons for your interlude into this discussion, I still wish you the best of luck with your future friend and "lawn mower".

I really wish I was half as clever as people give me credit for on these forums. I'd be like James Bond or some super-spy CIA agent inciting rebellions and installing puppet regimes... :rofl

I've met people online who I figured for freaks only to meet them in person where they turn out to be really good people. I've also met people online that sounded really great in chat, but in person turned out to be flaming bungholes on a Popsicle stick. I would just caution against public "warm fuzzies" of adoration until you actually belly up to a Sports Bar and have a beer with the person....Unless you like the taste of crow. ;)

ummmmmmmm..... flaming bunghole      :devil

Ive met quite a few folks in the 13-odd years Ive been playing AH/AW (had a nation-wide job for 6 years) Met Kak3 (not nearly as wound up in person as here :))...met Abdul from AW...great old hippy guy who worked for IRS, even had a top 40 song in early 80's (I'm afraid he passed away from liver issues).... Met Lobo3 (retired Air force gent)and his wife Max, great folks...met RapidRem (who had quite a few names.."Glint"..among others)...New Jersey cop...lives in Maryland now....prolly a couple more I can't remember, haven't been disappointed yet. Ya chat with folks enough in  game (not so much in here) ya get a good idea of who they are

God, I hope not. Although some of his freakouts in AW on Gamestorm were some real all-time classics. We used to say, "Uh oh! the "Kaka" has hit the fan again!"  :rofl

WmLute has always been someone i respect and i felt the BBS had gotten too personal and vitriolic for my taste so I Pm'd him and had a great conversation...I was relieved to leave it feeling he was an outstanding person who didn't take my posts personally.  Thanks Lute  :salute

Zazen I was going  to PM you as well, as I felt things were getting out of hand.  If you are willing I still will.  Im sorry that you are upset...but hey sometimes it goes that way.  You just hadn't been on when i was lately.

Im feisty on the BBS and in the game sometimes...i love opportunities like going to the da with banshee to clear the air...Banshee was the superior pilot that night :salute

To all who posted nice things thank you :aok
