Tangent ST Poll: Would you be comfortable with a RL life friend becoming a regular here?

Posted by ty97 Jun 17 '11, 13:08

This is a separate conversation from the below, but conversation reminded me of this.

I have a friend who I almost told about ST recently. Don't know that he'd ever post here, but I thought he'd be a good fit for the community and bring some interesting conversation.

I didn't invite him though. I noticed I like having this place as 'mine', where I can talk about, ask about, bitch about, whatever in my RL that I want without my RL knowing.

I don't fear RL stumbling on this place. Some in RL know of its existence, even if they don't have the link. But I don't want to outwardly invite RL in.

Sure. I have a friend who might do that, in fact. -- nm - Kim Pine Jun 17, 13:14
generally no...nm - x Jun 17, 13:13
Yes. but I will admit - Epiphany Jun 17, 13:13
Sure. -- nm - Diva Jun 17, 13:12
I'm fine with who ever wants to show up here and post. Their are only two people that could show up where I'd alter my posting habits - TWuG Jun 17, 13:11
yes, but it definitely would change my filter of what I post about from time to time -- nm - oblique Jun 17, 13:11
I've tried to get Suzanne to post here. She's just too busy. Yet she'll peruse FB for an hour. - JaxSean Jun 17, 13:11 4
- It does make you rephrase things occasionally. -- nm - Mel Profit Jun 17, 13:12 1
  - That bitc...*backspace*backspace*...My wife? - oblique Jun 17, 13:13
- there's a big learning curve. the average board, to someone not really part of our world would probably be really boring. -- nm - Andie Jun 17, 13:11 1
  - absolutely. the learning curve at this point might make people give up fairly quickly. - Mel Profit Jun 17, 13:13
Some, certainly. - Dr.Vermin Jun 17, 13:10
Sure. It would actually make my life easier too. - Mel Profit Jun 17, 13:10
Hell yes. -- nm - Will Hunting Jun 17, 13:10
Tracy, I'm gonna let you take this one. -- (link) - Jelly Jun 17, 13:09 [youtube]
Sure - znufrii Jun 17, 13:09
i'd rather have new strangers than old friends here. -- nm - Andie Jun 17, 13:08 4
- Yes, I think this is me too. - ty97 Jun 17, 13:11
- Ditto. But then I generally like to compartmentalize my life. -- nm - Dano Jun 17, 13:10 2
  - yeah. i still like things to be separate. i hate everything being tied to everything else....nm - x Jun 17, 13:13 1
    - Maybe this is it. ST is like an oasis for me, away from everything else. - ty97 Jun 17, 13:14
