**Lissla Lissar**  
And I don’t know if they still post, but **Mademoiselle** and **Octavia Smythe Bunion I, Esquire** / **Osbie** as well.

And I used to post with **Avalonian** on the old Kate Winslet Fan Club boards, but I don’t know if he got the SDMB link from me or not.

You left one out, **Guin**. I first came here following a link you posted at the CS boards back in the old days.

I recruited **supervenusfreak** , who may finally post more now that he’s met a few Dopers in person…

Well, I didn’t necessarily recruit her, but **Papaveraceae** had heard enough about The Dope that she was curious enough to join.

Now, I’ll just have to make her go to a Dopefest with me one of these days.

A few of my friends read this message board often, and one joined on a guest membership for a while. I forget her username though…_shrugs_ Anyway, I dunno if they will subscribe, but they sure do enjoy reading it!

I recruited **Huggybear,** although he has only about 3 posts, he has been to almost every DopeFest I have ever been to (including NYDope, Central PA Dope, Dope-A-Ween, all the MAD events, etc)! So I guess you could say he’s more of an IRL Doper.

I was responsible for bringing **chilvarez69** to you all. I told him about the Straight Dope in Physics class. But he is totally responsible for this thread, totally:

I signed my hubby, **Yepmas** , up because he was interested in stuff going on in GD.  
I told him that booty _would_ be kicked if he made me waste $14.95 on one post.  
He’s made 9. :rolleyes:

I’ll take credit for my sister, **HeartOnMySleeve**.

I recruited my wife, **Rhiannon8404**. She should pass my post count sometime in the next couple of weeks.

My husband, Brainiac4, joined back when I first did. He introduced me to the books, I introduced him to the board. But he had all of six posts before going subscription, plus some occational lurking. Than he subscribed. I think the “free internet” ravings were getting to him.

I seldom bump into him here though. He is currently very busy playing City of Heros with the Doper crowd there.

My friend, **Heppie**. I got her to join but she says she’ll post when she has something to say. 😉

In my short tenure, I’ve managed to suck in **OhFace** and **Darkness**.  
[aside]  
I about died when I stumbled upon the line about “lurking in the **Darkness** ” (she’s a hottie).
