I can vouch for @carmensandiego, rbp, @choco, @kirkette, @gypsy, @charky, @mrsbamfb, bunch. Oh, and I even met orangeblossom at work. And @songforyou and runblondie26.
And me, sort of, since I PMed you the name of a friend who you know actually does work at your employer Not the closest tie, but I'd have to have been trying awfully hard to come up with that!
You're right! I'd forgotten about that. My nest memory is not as good as Kore's.
I am FB friends with one person but haven't met any in real life. I know that Roc A Bee lives in a town near me and I am pretty sure @mrschicken lives in the same region, but that is about it. Not a ton of us nearby to have a gtg.
I have only met one of the ladies who posts here occasionally because she is from my local board. To my knowledge she hasn't met anyone else though so I don't know what good her backing would do.

I've met a number of people from GBCN mostly from the Seattle board. Outside of Seattle people I have met @sfgal530, @egisphere and I will meet mskitkat next weekend.
I clicked maybe. I sent noodleskooze and c7 formula coupons so they know my real name and address. karmasabiotch donated to my charity walk page last summer that had my name and photo.
I can vouch for tripleshot. I know her real name and address. She's legit and an all around nice and honest person.

I haven't met anyone but I've been here 10 plus years and turned down ML when they offered to adopt one of my caseload families for Christmas just to avoid any chance that it could be squicky since I haven't met anyone.
I've also donated to a few people for various events and was FB friends with people who know my real name, even people that flame me these days.

I think so. I haven't technically met anyone in person yet, but I have done SS with both ML and MM, so at the very least, luckyval, RexManningDay, holly116 and TamiTaylor can.

I have only ever met one person I met online, and she was from the bump (and mostly a lurker). We discovered we lived less than a mile apart and had kids 2 months apart so we met up and became friends.
I *hope* to meet one in the near future because she is supposed to visit my area.
I've met 11 people from the nest boards/ gbcn. Many of them on several occasions. I always meet people when I get an opportunity. I've developed many wonderful friendships from this site.
@starry mentioned it yesterday but she has known and worked with my aunt, my mom's identical twin sister, for years. And works with one of my closest friends. Which probably made this not such a safe place for her when I came out of the woodwork! (Sorry starry!) So even though we have yet to actually met in real life, I think we could back each other up.
I'm also Facebook friends with a few dozen of you guys. And really, I don't really attempt to hide a whole lot here. Anyone that wanted to do just a bit of digging would know exactly who I am or who my DH is and I'm fine with that.
No, I am alone in my pocket of the country and not friends with anyone in anyway off-board.
Me too! I'll vouch for you if you vouch for me! Also, as nice as most everyone is on the boards, it's exactly because of situations like that, that I don't want to get so wrapped up with people.

Alas, no. I don't post from work, so I miss most of the daytime fun, and I don't even have a Facebook account (gasp!). I would be thrilled to attend a GTG, but as a non-drinker, I feel like I wouldn't fit in at all.
I can vouch for les that she's super attractive and wouldn't need to steal a model's photo. I've met like every military GBCNer there is. Including our catfish. Several came to my wedding and they've all seen plenty of evidence of my life. Now what's going on with me currently? It sounds catfishy which is why I haven't posted details. Plus it's depressing.
Would that be the infamous one from the old site that caused the San Diego board to implode? Or did you have another catfish that invaded the MN board?
ETA- you can come hang with us over on the SO board if you need to vent/chat/whine/etc.
Sort of. There is a former CEPer who I knew from a previous board. I could vouch for her, as I've met her several times, her ex husband, etc. We use to send Christmas cards, so I even have her address. But she went down in a blaze of glory on here, so my version of vouch is based in the person I knew, not what is still said about her today.
And there are a couple of MMers I've shared some info with, but never met.
