So there wouldn't be much to tell. And we'd be calling each other by our usernames, too. "Hey, Sword!" "S'up, Mara?" "Yo, Autobon!" "SoS, how's it going?" _________________ "It's not about the legacy you leave, it's about the life you live." ~Mara Jade Skywalker Last edited by Mara Jade Skywalker on Tue Sep 15, 2009 8:46 pm; edited 1 time in total

That was hilarious. " I like Jaina." "We know." LOL!!!! yeah... it could get very awkward very fast. Glad I could provide some amusement. Another comment I could see is "You look nothing like your avatar." So, yeah, it would be awkward, but I'm sure we'd get over it, stop calling each other by our usernames, and have fun. _________________ All things die, Anakin Skywalker, even stars burn out.

For some reason I always picture eveyone on here as their avatar. It's so wierd. But I can promise you there is no way in hell that I look like Jaina Solo.

I'm guessing that Autobon's not a Jawa, either. The one I'd get is, "Padmé! You're blonde!" _________________ All things die, Anakin Skywalker, even stars burn out.

Old Master Ben Administrator Joined: 10 Nov 2007 Posts: 2254 Location: Georgia Quote: I mean, considering different ages and such. I have no friends who even know what the EU is, and they won't bother to try reading the books. One of my friends is a Star Wars fan. ONE!!! and they make fun of it all the time. So I'm all by my lonesome. I don't think the ages would be an issue. I know we have people on here over 40, and people under 15, but I don't see it being that bad, as long as you have one person there who is REALLY good with conversation. They could make everyone feel comfortable. What you have to do is act normal. I know the Star Wars bloggers did a dinner at Celebration IV, and though I don't know how conversation went, it seems like they had a ton of fun, from videos. The only bad parts were when they tried to do things that they would do on the blogs, like have The Stooge get up and tell jokes. Those are great for blogs, but it was not as good in person. We would just have to be ourselves. Quote: Sword: "Hey." Reepicheep: "Hey." Autobon: "S'up?" Mara: "Not much." OMB: "I like SW. " HA! I would be the one to start a conversation with the obvious. Quote: I'm guessing that Autobon's not a Jawa, either. No, he is. It's a common misconception that people don't like their avatars. Autobon, for example, really is a Jawa. I, however, am not an 80 year old British dude. See, I just used the word dude. Proof that I'm not old or British. As the "creator" of this site, there is nothing I would love more than a meetup, and SoS would love it even more. It's so frustrating that we all live so far away. I mean, CV is east coast for sure, so Autobon and Kal wouldn't even make that. But CV would be the best bet, I see at least 3 of us going. Unless I paid to fly everyone to Flordia, I don't think we will ever all meet.

JediDSM Padawan Joined: 30 Jul 2009 Posts: 29 Location: Northern IL I have access to a Ventrilo server if anyone was interested in voice chat. Not sure how many of you have microphones/headsets for you computers though. If there was any interest in that I could post the info...

I subconsciously do that too, so don't ruin it for me. As far as I'm concerned, there are some very hot women on here!! Sword, I've been to wisconsin a couple of times and all I can remember is.....COLD. Like minus 30 cold and minus 60 something with the wind chill. Yikes. I don't think the age difference would be a big deal though as long as there is a common ground for decent conversation. I'm 38, but just kind of a big kid(so my wife says) and my teenage relatives and I chat things up pretty well.
