Whether through real-life meetups, or Skype, Facetime, Google Hangouts.
Have you been face to face with people you met online?
I can tell you I've met my online friends a couple recently, and wow it's such an interesting experience! It's so cool to use Google Hangouts (webchat) to meet people from around the world. It might be intimidating at first, but you basically already know them!
So yeah. Who has experience with this?
-
Haha, nope.
-
I met one in a summer camp once after having played online, but for the most part I've more than often run into the person irl first.
-
If you count the friend of someone I already knew in real life then yeah.
-
I've met them IRL and THEN added them... You know? The normal way... I only have less than 30 either way... And i keep deleting ppl.
-
Yeah I became close friends with them
-
I'll add people on Facebook or perhaps Skype, if I have met them on Xbox or Omegle
-
Nope.
-
I've skyped with a few of them, but not shown my face.
-
-
I skyped with some guys. And sure, i met some: some of my usual friends & my brother.

Edited by Mr Underhill: 6/15/2013 10:26:24 PMI only have one Online friend, which is my pen-pal. We're both open to the Idea of using , but for some reason we don't, I guess using messaging makes it seem more like a proper pen pal experience (writing letters) we wont actually meet for a few years as we're both 15, she lives in The US and I live in The Uk. EDIT: Oh right you meant XBL? in that case I already know all my online friends, what I was talking about above was my penpal.
-
Only one so far. It took seven years, and only one, by chance, at a recent London Comic-con. :/
-
My online friends go to my school, so yea, I see them everyday.
-
I have. Numerous times. Some of the coolest people I've ever met in life, I met online first.
-
Sure. Best thing ever!
-
I met my girlfriend online, so yes.
-
Once or twice.

Edited by Payola: 6/15/2013 8:45:41 PMI've skyped and chatted with a few people online "face to face". On the 27th I'm going to Vegas to meet a girl I met online, so that will be a first.

Edited by VerticalGradient: 6/15/2013 6:41:09 PMNo, but then again, I've never made any friends online. If I were very good friends with someone who happened to live somewhat close to me, then I might propose a meet-up.
-
A couple Skype conversations, nothing else.
