Well, the only two Dopers I know in person I knew before I stumbled upon the site, but ronincyberpunk (my little brother) and vibrotronica (a good friend who throws fantastic parties) are two of my favorite people.
Dave! You put my sister and her wonderful hubby at the top of your list. (Right where they belong, IMHO.) But then, all MAD’s rock!
Thanks, RT, I feel the same way about you.
No, we’re going back. Next time you are buying! :eek: :eek: 
Everyone at LonDope May 2002, but especially my girlie shopping companions Anahita and Fierra.
Jus’ as long as it looks that way.
Although we met through another website, I liked featherlou so much I married her!
Arden Ranger is a sweetheart, and is the only reason that I contemplate visiting Oklahoma again!
Lessee. I’ve met (in chronological order): reprise, goo, don’t ask, woolly, pldennison, Aghris, Redboss, leechbabe and kambuckta. And a few accompanying S/Os and kids.
Haven’t always agreed with 'em all, but they’re generally a cool, intelligent, and likeable bunch.
CuriousCanuck, just wait until you meet me. I’ll blow the rest of them right out of the water. There will be none other than me!!!
MUWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!
Heehee, not really 
The only Doper I’ve met, so far, is mnemosyne, this past weekend. She is definitely way cool. And meeting her again, when I’m not all frazzled because of a play that I’m stage managing, would probably be even cooler
Leechbabe amazes me as a human being and a queer girl could not ask for a better date than redboss who makes a fine beard indeed.
You’re not the first, CuriousCanuck. 
To list the very cool Dopers that I’ve met…would take for-freaking- ever, and you people have lives. Let’s just say that if you’re reading this, and I’ve met you, you rock. And if I haven’t met you, I want to.
Gorgon, is there anything I can do to talk you in to wearing the fedora to the RibFest? Please?

I will if you like, but do remember it will be in June. In New York. Despite the amazing weather we’ve had thus far this year, I don’t think it’ll last that long.
And what is it with that fedora? Did I show you the photos of Cajun Man and DrMatrix each wearing it? In fact, two years ago Arden wore it as well.
the damn thing is more popular than I am!!!
[sub]Not I hope![/sub]
Q, you animal, you.
smooches
Because that fedore is the ultimate in cool, that’s what!
And everybody looks good in a fedora. 
Fair enough. I’ll buy the same amount of rounds you bought last time
I have to admit, there’s only one doper I’ve talked to other than on here. And Flamesterette_X is one of the coolest people I have ever had the privledge of talking to.
Everyone I’ve met at Dopefests, except for the Gruesome Twosome. (I want those photos burned.)
I haven’t yet met Potter IRL, but I’ll pre-empt that for obvious reasons
I have had the priviledge to meet many a Dopers in my time and not one of them (banned or current) come across as people I don’t like.
I like them all.
I have had the privi to meet much more than 20 and I hope more and all have been exactly what I have expected and none of them have been people I don’t want to know. Each have been as cool and fun as I wanted.
To each of you, you know who you are, hugs. I miss each of you.
Of the Dopers I met IRL, I’d have to say:
Tequila Mockingbird and Turbo Dog, the only other St. Louis Dopers I keep in contact with off the boards
Geobabe and Uncle Bill - met at last year’s ChiDope and got to go to my very first game at Wrigley Field with them (and for a huge baseball geek like me, getting to watch a game at one of the two oldest ballparks - I had already been to Fenway Park - was something I’d wanted to do for years)
DynoSaur - showed up to a StLouis get-together a couple times, met up with him again at last year’s ChiDope - dude’s just cool.
Hamadryad - after we had a couple back-to-back spats in the Pit, turns out I really like her!
