My "challenge" (invitation) is still in effect. When you've spent several hours with DCP, let me know your impressions. You have very loyal in real life friends, like Liz. Now, after you've spent several hours with DCP in person, at the least, let me know if you still feel the same about his "online persona".

You're wrong and let me tell you why. My friendship with Liz (and others from this board) formed on account of what they or I, have written on the boards that sparked a connection. Of the MDB posters whom I consider trusted friends, which off the top of my head amounts to oh, (counting quickly) about 12, I've only met two face to face.

Maybe because for the past five years he's been subjected to slander, by an anonymous poster, and maybe, just maybe, it actually hurts to have his character slandered in such a way. Maybe he's actually human, and really cares what people think about him, even when the accusations come "anonymously".

So, we can judge people by what they post on message boards?

Yes. Don't you judge the people by what they post on this board? If not, on what do you base your criticisms?
Going now....talk later.

Are you or DCP going to pay for the ticket? If not, shut up.
