Shinsou: some weirdo who I met that time ...
Nah, back at you Chris. Easily one of my best friends in real life as well as here. Met him three times now, we're planning the fourth. He has an awesome family, and is a very generous and caring person. He came to my wedding and I was honoured to have him at it. Words cannot express how amazing he is. Also a very good writer.

Gnarl and Root: Met him the first time I met Shinsou. It was a very good night at the pub, well worth it. He married Karuka/Michelle as some know, and I plan to see them sometime too.

Planning :P

Voice/Aenon: Whom some of you know, the guy who some times writes here. Was Grumble for a while. I live with this person and blooming see him every day ... I.e. Gordon my husband who I got to join.

Twitch/Aurelanius: the son of a monster who got me to join this thing. Easily one of the best people I know in life, I first met him when he let me join a tabletop RPG and became my first ever GM. Currently in an awesome Dungeons and Dragons game with him ... Makes a good mate, very sweet taste in books/movies etc.

Callum: can't for the life of me remember his name that it was here. He was back on 3.1, and is Twitch's best mate in real life. Very sound guy and is the GM for said D and D game. Made reconnection with him recently, and very worth it.

That's the folk I have met. The list of people I want to meet is massive, and basically includes every one so ...

Shouts out though for:

Andy/Babe: I love you dearly mate, you've never said a cross word to me, and always been around for ranting at and chatting to.

Rayleigh/Shelby: You're a serious blessing in disguise. Awesome person to talk about stuff with, and has an adorable puppy.

Tiffany/Amari: A lovely person, an amazing Aussie. You have amazing ideas as a writer.

Lye: Very cool man. Sound and really kind. You have a good heart and omg your art man ... So good at it.

(Realises that there are so many people here I want to add).

Breaker: You know you are awesome. *Fist bump cause I am so cool*

Sir Artemis: very good for a nice, decent chat. Has his heart in the right place.

Pav/Elthas: Amazing writing buddy. You are so awesome. Let's rule the world together yeah?

Dirks: You're a good guy. I like you. *Smiles and forces a hug on you*.

(*Flails* ... So many people)

Fenn: ... You're just adorable. And fantastic. And lovely!

Nekoprincess/Anna: and so are you. You make me go *squee* and I want to hug you.

Jdd: you're an amazing writer and let's me rant a bit and rants back. We have good chat out of Althanas.

A bit newer:

Nevin/Garran: a very wonderful new friend that I've made. Love chatting to you my friend, and writing with you is an honour. You make me laugh and are so understanding.

Chelley: is in chat a lot when I am. Very good banter.

If I have missed anyone I am sorry. I've tried to add everyone who I chat to on a regular basis inside and out of Althanas. In general, I think you are all very cool.
