I have met lots of MLers.
MWOS Jermys Underwaterrhymes Alzi missusbee Kevin Janegold Lila saraandmichael LEON (where has she been anyway?) BostonJen SmartyPants (aka Ayms/Irrelephant, she doesn't really post anymore) cbwm Sparky Louloudi RiverSong/whatever her name is now, LOL Firedancer Ninja
I feel like I'm still forgetting people. And then there are the ones that I've been FB friends with for so long and texted/talked with on the phone so I forget I've never actually met them.
ETA: Oh, and I skyped with BlackCanary and Snarkshark, does that count??
I know and have met wonderfezz and she's been at my house with other Knotties who are not on GBCN. She loves my dog and my dog loves her (heart)
I've also met and lunched with my girl NuggetBrain and will hopefully see her this summer when I'm back in her town.
ETA: birdistheword and I also know each other, but have never met in person. Thanks to her, when we were playing CAH online, people think my name is fluffy chaser.
I met some posters back on TK a billion years ago, at local gtgs when I was on the South Jersey board. I'm still fb friends with a bunch of girls and I once went to a really big gtg in Philly in 2006 or maybe 2007, but I don't recognize any of those names on ML- they may have made the exodus and probably lurk, but they aren't regulars or anything. I do notice a few girls repost a lot of links on FB that I see here first, so I often jump to assume they are lurking!

I've met some of the MM regulars, as well as several H&F ladies over the years. Many of us show up at the same races, so that one isn't too challenging arrange. They're all lovely, real people.

We probably met at some point back the day. I went to a bunch of TK gtg's when I lived in SJ, and also later when we moved to S. Florida.
I've met RockLobster and silvahalo several times, as well as some other people from our old local board on TN. (Also foxinfiji who posts on Home and Gardening)

Not for that one, but geesh, I wish I had been there. That sounds like good times, lol.
No. It won't happen unless the opportunity arises with a handful of you. DH's pedophile stalker client keeps me from meeting anyone. He scares me much more than an over-invested fraud who gets presents and donations for a fake dog rescue (or rather the chance of another person like him out there scares me more.)
I'm sure I've missed some (especially those who no longer post), and there are others whose screennames I've forgotten because I only know twitter names now. LOL.
Holy cannoli! How come I'm not in this list? When are we meeting?
I've met @rumpshaker, @mwos, and tdk2. I think that's it. I'm FB friends with a couple as well. oh, and I had weekly playdates with a girl from that other board because her H and my H met on a plane, figured out they were doing fellowship together, and that their wives knew each other online. Talk about worlds colliding. But it was all good because she is/was awesome. I don't think she made the transition over here though.
how did that come up?
She and I had already talked here (well, on TN) about how both our H's were looking at fellowships at the same place, but I don't think we'd talked about it since they'd matched there for sure. Nothing via pm or anything, just random posting/complaining about jobs, stress, etc. Apparently she told her H a lot about what went on on the board, and he thought we were all crazy. So during the flight they were just talking about moving, meeting new people, etc, and her H mentioned that there was this website she went to all.the.time and there was this other girl there who his wife thought she might know in their new spot, but wasn't entirely sure where her H ended up. H was like...."um....what's that website? because my wife has one of those websites too..." and walla. Worlds collide.

I only sort of met pooh8402 when she worked on tele and I was in nursing school. It was long before I knew she was on TN and I was only active in the military nesties board. Small world!
