So at the weekend I met geoff in real life. And it then made me wonder how many other people on this board I have met.
It's a wonder I've met anyone at all given that I never travel, but after a quick count I have met the following:
01. takemeaway89 02. lecky 03. lins87 04. darnand 05. poison x girls 06. thexessence 07. davesfu 08. angerbattery 09. rperusi 10. xtokeex 11. runexjustanotherday 12. minoratheart 13. circlestorm69 14. nico 15. geoff
(Note - the list is in the order of meeting, for extra nerd points. Apologies if I forgot anyone, but it's tough to remember everyone who posts on here)
Can anyone beat 15? (Edit - after Rune & Ralf reminded me of two more I went through the members list and found another couple)

I think that CircleStorm69 introduced me to you, so your list might be off.

I think that CircleStorm69 introduced me to you, so your list might be off. So you've met at least two I can conclude.

I remember my first ever email exchange with Marcus. I either traded for something or sold(?) him the BETA MINUS MECHANIC / HOLDEN 7" on, I think, blue or grey vinyl. It was probably late 90s/early 00s In the emails that followed I asked Marcus if by any chance he happened to have the Hardball 7", which I was looking for at that time, to which he replied: "I used to have it but got rid of it due to it being shit." Word for word. Edit: I just got a message from Marcus telling me that I actually got the Beta 7" from him haha Not the other way around

As for people who I've met, other than Marcus, I think, Lins, Lecky, Rafal and Dave. And I think all of them, except for Soft Hair Dave, I've met long before this board existed. Due to my unfortunate location I'm in a bit of a Crusoenian position when it comes to meeting people.

Lins, Marcus (Chung king 48) and Lecky because they're fellow Brits and I've known them for many many moons. Think I spoke to Dave SFU at a Blacklisted show in Manchester but it was only for a second while I bought a record off him. Everyone else just exists on the internet for now.

Second place... because your list reminded me of someone else I've met, although I didn't know he was on this board. Plus also Ralf's list reminded me of another.

(Edit - after Rune & Ralf reminded me of two more I went through the members list and found another couple) I guess I just did ;-)

20. lins87 and I were in the same room but that doesn't count I guess. I wish it did count, because if so I've met Guns N Roses. Still, 19 is pretty good. I doubt anyone will beat that.

Seeing this list, I can think of at least 9 more. I didn't know they all hung out here.

I don't really like meeting people, I think they will steal my records...

I'm on the complete opposite end of the spectrum. I have only ever met one person on the board. @leighxdrugfree is the only person on this board who can verify that I am indeed a real person. Or maybe I'm not. Maybe I am just a manifestation of Leigh's subconscious, à la Fight Club. A way for Leigh to splurge on records he cannot justify paying high prices for... Or maybe I just don't travel much.

I don't even know who hids behind those nicknames. I meet a frw guys and they where always nice dudes.
Circlestorm, Ferry, Nico, iagainsti and then i dont know if they are on the board and what their name is.
It would help, that everyone posts a picture from themselfs. Or in the avatar 😁

I never met you but you were the first person I traded with out of Australia. 5 points if you remember what it was for.

Dobek I could be wrong but it may have been a Turning Point It's Always Darkest first press on black. But I can't remember if that was a sale or trade.

I got from you the Lockin Out Sweet Vision on clear but I can't remember what I sent you in exchange. It must have been more than 10 years ago because I was still in London. possibly soon after this came out. What was it? 04? 05? Something like that. It was a HYE trade. I still have the record.

Ahh I don't think so because I don't believe I have ever owned that record.
