Hasn't happened me too many times, other than those foreign women, you know, the ones that sound and look too good to be true.
I have had a few Irish ones wanting to chat off-site, but I never follow it up... not only does it mean trusting them with one of my email addresses, also there's no moderation or fall-back if things turn nasty.
Is it just me, or do ye also notice how these people that want to chat off-site are never seen in the forums...
To me, seeing people in the forums means that you get to see their good and bad points, as well as general views on life, i.e. you get a good idea if they would be someone you'd be interested in or not. With these people who hide in the shadows and then jump out at you, you've no sense of what they're like, other than whatever garbage they try to swoon you with.
Honestly, I can see both BB's and PT's points being valid to some degree...
In any of the threads here that end up having any substance, there's a certain number of 'core' members that will be seen turning up and adding their opinion.
Also, sometimes, members are either just not around, they don't feel like being stuck in a particular topic, or read thru the responses, and feel it's done to death...
In 1990, the time Ireland were playing Italy, was in the Aran Islands, got paraletic, came back the next day on the boat and the sea was really rough, Ever since then...
Actually, what makes it exciting is that other than the gay psychotic stock-broker thread yesterday, this is the first one all week that's had a bit of meat and substance
