Hopefully this thread hasn't been created. I saw the thread about the alleged bot sending messages to DD members, so I thought I'd ask these questions…
Not that DD is akin to Match.com - Still, has anyone ever hooked up or wanted to hook up with someone here in the community?
Does anyone have a testimony about that?
Gained a girlfriend/boyfriend? New best friend? That reached beyond the Internet into a real time encounter that has lasted a while?

Amelius and Evil Emperor Nick are probably the most recognizable. They met on DD, dated and got married!

Nope. I never met anyone from DD in person, but I talk to more guys my age on DD than anywhere else on the internet or in life.
I get cripplingly shy around eligible men my age. I have sort of conned myself into actually conversing with a few of them on DrunkDuck because I initially thought they were either married or women. (Damn you guys and your feminine avatars!) But seriously, it's a good thing. It has given me more confidence in real life to know I can have conversations with guys.
Would I like to? I dunno. There are guys I can actually talk to on here, so maybe. They already know how self-conscious and neurotic I am. We could build on that. ;)
But I probably never will meet any of you. Geography is against it.

Yep, met my live-in girlfriend through Drunkduck. We've been together over a year now.
Oh, I should also mention that I met my college roommate through DrunkDuck, and because of that never had to live in the crappy dorms.

I've seen things you people wouldn't believe: The Anti Sprite Coalition on fire off the shoulder of Cut and Paste. I watched Top Drawer glitter in the dark near the Forumhauser Gate. All those moments will be lost in time, like… tears in the rain.

I met my sister.
I know…It's crazy how we lived in the same house for years, totally unaware of each other, and then realized through DrunkDuck's advanced DNA testing system that we were related.

I'd imagine it would make the getting to know your process a lot easier.
ie:
person 1- “I like comics”.
person 2- “0.o really?! Me too!”
Either that, or that would wind up being one of the geekiest relationships ever. “Wanna cross our LANs tonight babe? Get freaky and maybe switch OS's for a little bit?”

Meeting someone online isn't my ideal way to get hooked up… but if I do meet someone worthwhile, so be it. It's just really unlikely, that's all. =\
I think it's sweet that people can meet over the Internet (especially on DD) and get married. It means that they liked them for their personality before their looks.
worstcase and SeriousQuiche: lol, that's awesome. If my sister ever found me here, she'd probably stalk me and never admit it's her. ._.

It's not too hard to see that. I can't imagine any other reason girls would actually hang around DD.

I love comics! Need something to read during my down time @ the office.
I'm trying to meet the sweet guy who started this thread XD.
But I think he's too shy or too busy to meet a gal for Johnny Rocket's!

I'll never date another person I also know on the internet. One person has ruined it for everyone. This is why people can't have nice things.

I think MOST wives would be against any dating of any kind, Komrade. Even mine. Geez, man.
Which brings me to…

I am a bit shy and I am a pretty busy person with the school year on the horizon - but since we're talking Johnny Rocket's down the street from my job, then you're on! See you in the Valley sometime.
