@brentmaas and @Cumred_Snektron don't you know each others in real life since long before joining CW, though? :P #ActionReplayCheats

They do. They actually joined because of TheCoder1998 :P
ceci n'est pas une signature

Which reminds me, I always found it ironic that most people who invited real-life friends to Omnimaga/CW left the community almost immediately afterwards, while their friends stayed (eg Lord Coniupiter when he invited you and TheCoder1998 when he invited Cumred/Brentmaas) <_<.

I live in Australia, so meeting up with other community members isn't always easy (even though tr1p1ea and I only live 1-1.5hrs drive from each other!)

But I did meet Patrick D back in 2006 when he came to Australia, and again this year as well!

Also last year when I was in the USA, I met Kerm & Elfprince for breakfast, and I also met Merth who came along to see my band playing on tour, which was awesome :)

Dream of Omnimaga

Yeah true. In my case I live not too far from USA but I'm very tight on money, so if I save for a trip that pretty much means no longer doing anything for half a year. But I am really considering it. :3=

I've met up with NeoCrisis, Adriweb, Levak, Laurae and PatrickD. (Not including family)

Always interesting to meet up with community members :)

Dream of Omnimaga

Ah nice I forgot you met PatrickD. And yeah I agree. I hope to see them again in the future :) (although that should not be an issue with juju due to how close he lives)

Wow nice. Hopefully I can meet some French people at some point. Also I need to go to Montreal at some point to catch a soccer game.

I've met some people from Cemetech at Maker Faire last year. Sadly I probably won't be able to go this year due to college.

No because...

1. I'm "technically" a new member

2. I live on an island, so unless other people on here are on said island my chances of meeting people are limited

Now that I think about it, I don't believe I've met anyone in person on any forum I've ever been apart of (my first forum I ever joined was in 2004)... dunno how I feel about that, lol.

Dream of Omnimaga

You can include Omni and TIMGUL users I guess, but yeah so far I met two people who made a trip to QC and one who lives nearby. I never traveled further than Ottawa so far, since it's expensive.

On a side note do you live in USA?

Oh I see lol. It looks like it must not be that hard to get there, though. :P

If by "must not be that hard to get there" you mean "waiting hours in traffic depending on time and dealing with people that can't drive for c because NY is overpopulated as c", then yes, it's not that hard.

Also our bridges have tolls... have fun with that.
