Yes, I've been to a GTG since the migration and a few when we were back on the old site. I also had a play date with another MM mom, but she isn't on often anymore (but I hope she would vouch for me!)
ETA that I just scanned the entire thread and no one that I've met is here, so no one could vouch for me in this thread lol.
Probably not. I've been around since late 2006 but my total post count on TK/TN was in the 500s, I think. I obviously started posting more after the migration but haven't met anyone in person yet (that is, until the upcoming MMM Metro Detroit GTG!).
You sent me a wonderful secret Santa gift with your Christmas card, that counts right? I'll vouch for you
Aw thanks! This was the first year I've ever participated in an SS exchange. I am glad I did; it was fun.
The KC group can vouch for me, although I suck and bailed on them last month because work had an emergency I ended up in BFE. I met @flatian who introduced me to amazing donuts.
Yes, I've met 3 Iowa people and a handful from Chicago area. I guess that doesn't mean a ton, but they know I exist! I am also FB friends with many of you, but I guess that means very little.
My life has been very dramatic in the past, I wonder if anyone thought I was MUD. However, sadly, nothing I have posted has even been exaggerated.
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 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.
I think so, even though I haven't met anyone from here in person. I'm FB friends with several people from here and there shouldn't be any conflicting stories between the two. Of course I don't really know the extent of what exactly went down, so maybe that's not enough.
I'm really surprised you've never met anyone from here in person! I think of you as one of the "old school" people on the board. You must live in a non-GTG-friendly place.
I do. I don't think there are any GBCNers in my area!

Nope.
But if necessary, I might be able to convince @buckybells to meet me at an exit off of I-80 to prove my realness. She is the closest GBCNer I am aware of...
However, meeting an an interstate exit in sketchy on its own. Oh well!
Yup, I've met several MMers, and have posted enough details I think if someone reaaally wanted to see if I am who I say I am, they could, but hopefully not enough to stalk me
I also saw someone on the Boston local board that I knew who she was, but I didn't identify myself to her.
I used to post occasionally on the old tri boards when my now 4yo was a baby.
I've only recently dipped my toes in here.
I have a IRL friend who was very very active on TK/TN with her wedding board, also some of whom I know I've interacted w/ on her fb. But I'm not sure any of them know I'm me. (Far as I know they off-shooted elsewhere, I think maybe also on PB, but I haven't seen her here).
I don't put pics or names up here, but if people read my threads and know me IRL they probably know I'm me (that made sense when I typed it).
Doubt it. I have posted quite a few pics of myself and H over time but have been too paranoid to leave them up for long. There are lots of Hilo pics still up though! And many Kona pics to come.
I haven't met anyone, though I probably could have since I've traveled to some of your locations. Maybe one day I'll come out of my shell and ask for a gtg if anyone is even interested in meeting boring old me.
I've only met @buckybells so hopefully she could vouch for me.
I think I can vouch for @shoegal even though I've never met her. She was super generous and send me her Canada park pass when I was going to the Rockies last fall
Aw yay thank you! I met rbp and it was such a fun surprise on a shitty day (stuck @ airport.)
I almost met @misoangry but had to decline since it was my bffs birthday dinner. I sent stuff to cosmos so yes, she is totally a catfish scamming for gifts. And maybe bananapancakes can vouch for me although she didn't see me. I could still be a 55yr old video gamer.
You also sent stuff to me and I sent stuff to you. Ss 2012.

So funny. I was thinking to myself that it's too bad I have never sent anything in secret Santa. It's early. I guess I forgot. I still wear my fuzzy red socks.
You are the only person my DH "knows" from GBCN. Whenever he sees me online he always asks, "how's hannamaren?" lol. He thought it was the oddest thing that I got Christmas presents from an unknown source.
