So last night was my first IRL experience with some SG members, bowling, drinks, a late night dinner at a fabulous hamburger joint out in the IE.
Talking online, chats, forums, boards, messages, emails, texting, all good fun, but getting out there and meeting new people face to face, making friends, drinking, talking, laughing, that's what it's about.
I'm very happy about it, glad I joined here, and hope to meet more people and have more good times.
Cheers.

It takes time to get to know people, and a certain skill to be able to type and read while also thinking about what's going on.
But there are lots of lurkers and people that just read and only occasionally throw a comment out there, so you're good, either way, the one thing to avoid is being obnoxious in general, or trying to get people you don't know involved in private messages, etc.
