I have never attended Crispers meetings, not that I did not want to, it was just never an option, but it might be sometime. Along those lines, I have a question as to how one would be welcome/perceived in person as compared to how they are perceived to be online, or maybe there is no different - I don't know.
I was a fascinated lurker for several years, then I began to post "I don't want to ruffle anybody's feathers" type posts, then one lonely night I posted all my "heart and sole" type posts, then I hid for a while and let OleDave post for me, then recently I have posted some "I really have something to say" type posts. But basically, in person, I'm really just a pretty nice person who enjoys good company and good conversation.
So I guess what I asking is - how is one perceived and welcomed - as they are online or as they are in person? Or maybe there is no difference.
