    Hey guys,

    Up in Dublin from Limerick for work and standing on westmoreland st for about 30 mins, and it got me thinking how many of em are boardsies and the ammount I know.

    Id say I know about 20-25 that I've met through beers etc. a few of which I've become great friends with!

    So what about you, how many boardsies do you know, or have you met outside of this virtual world?

    A few from school and college


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,476 ✭✭✭✭Ush1


    None, I have enough friends.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 14,762 ✭✭✭✭stupidusername


    I'm not bothered counting them tbh. lots. lots and lots. go to beers and you'll soon get to know ALL the boardsies.


  • Registered Users Posts: 8,207 ✭✭✭The King of Moo


    None that I'm aware of, but I have recognised one from being a year or two below me in school in the longago time, and I've spotted one or two about town (which town? more than one!).

    I'd know around 4 well enough, but have met something like 25 at beers and such. That's just who I know are boardsies. There are obviously quite a few who i don't know are on here.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,137 ✭✭✭44leto


    Nobody I think.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 14,127 ✭✭✭✭Leeg17


    Met about 20 at the two beers I went to, would consider 7 of them to be good friends and 3/4 to be really good friends :)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 31,152 ✭✭✭✭KERSPLAT!


    About 15 -20 Id say, few from beers, few from football/rugby and others I was already friends with and didnt know till recently that they were here


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 15,515 ✭✭✭✭admiralofthefleet


    a few

    So 5 of them are really good friends, and .25 of one is a really good friend...that's a girl who lets you play with her boobies isn't it. :pac:

    A few from college. Others from work who don't post on the same boards that I do.

    When people starting talking about percentages of people it juts makes them all sound like murderers who decapitate bodies. Just sayin'.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 7,333 ✭✭✭RichieC

  • Moderators, Entertainment Moderators Posts: 10,440 Mod ✭✭✭✭xzanti


    I befriended one or 2 on here, texted a few times and that but never met anyone from Boards in the flesh.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 21,730 ✭✭✭✭entropi


    I've met hundreds of Boardsies I'd reckon over the years. A lot are friends.

    Everyone in Dublin has a boards account. That's why everyone in AH knows when we say town it's the one with the spike.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,602 ✭✭✭emzolita


    none really :( but I did have a dream a while ago about Boards, like the film Chatroom, where all the forums were rooms, and you could physically go into a room, and sit and talk with people. So, I met a few of you in there.

    (Weirdly enough, there were actually 2 real usernames in my dream that I never talk to) :P


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,808 ✭✭✭Stained Class


    Met a couple thru the classic car forum & a few thru other forums.

    Mainly it was to do with buying/selling stuff.


  • Registered Users Posts: 12,220 ✭✭✭✭Loopy


    I've met a good few boardsies and would consider a handful to be friends.

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,528 ✭✭✭jubella


    I've seen a few people I know on the Know Your (insert forum here)er's threads, but I've never brought it up in real life. They've probably seen me on it too, but it's never been brought up.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,137 ✭✭✭44leto


    It seems a good way of making enemies.


  • Registered Users Posts: 579 ✭✭✭chalkie 501

    it really annoyed me, not sure if it was having my anonymity revealed or not knowing who he was that bothered me most:)

    About 78 I think.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 15,258 ✭✭✭✭Rabies


    I know a few before Boards. Some are still about, haven't seen a couple of them in years though.

    There is another bunch that I feel as if I know very well, but I have never met them :/
