Moonshoe said: I appreciate that.
To explain, I am an extremely private person. I am not part of any social media such as facebook or instagram that is in any way linked to my identity. In fact, the shroomery is literally the only online community or social media platform that I have ever been a part of, precisely because it is anonymous and I post under a pseudonym and avatar.
For years I refused to have even a cellphone, until my wife literally forced one into my hand.
I have never posted a photo of my face, or my name, or any information that could be definitively linked to my identity.
I would only remove that mask of anonymity and connect my shroomery identity to my actual name and face with someone who I trusted deeply.
To be honest, only Hanz and Green arrow would qualify.
This is not to put anyone else down in any way, but just as I wouldn't invite just any stranger into my home, I wouldn't expose my actual identity to anyone here who I didn't already have a long standing positive connection and trust with (and especially not to people who had been relentlessly obnoxious towards me).
"The art of a hunter is to become inaccessible. To be inaccessible means that you touch the world around you sparingly. You don't expose yourself to the power of the wind unless it is mandatory."
Carlos Castaneda - Journey to Ixtlan
I wouldn't compare meeting members or going to a gathering with inviting a stranger into your home at all, which seems much more blind and intimate. You've spent a significant amount of time talking to these people, and I don't think meeting anyone in public (besides LE, obviously) exposes you or threatens you any more, like letting someone into your house. That said, I also don't think letting most (>50%) strangers in is very dangerous either. My Midwestern outlook is probably showing, but strangers have offered me hospitality many times throughout my life. Even in high crime areas, even a couple people who didn't speak much English (Nor I Spanish).
I don't think attaching a face to the username is so intimate, either. For outspoken drug dealers, risky, but the vast majority of members here aren't. I'm not sure what that quote means in this context, what is hunting here.

Perhaps I should have said ambitious (drug dealers). It would be one thing if it was on a site devoted to images, with no personality/life attached to the accounts, but I always get nervous vicariously on the rare occasion someone uploads a pic of $10,000 worth of drugs.

Hey tyrannicalrex I could come up to denver, we could shoot the shit and some pool. Get some good barfood, freak out people listening in on our conversation.... could be fun!
And I'm pretty much sober now, minus prescribed adderall, and valium for tapering.

I'll meet you guys there. If my money is right. I'll be drinking for falsereality and whoever else doesn't drink.

Anybody reading this that lives within 100 miles of Madison, Milwaukee, Rockford IL, Monroe WI?
I've met a few Shroomerites that live near me.
The 1st was RobMarley420. He doesn't post much these days, but we ended up meeting at a local Chinese buffet and trading some goodies. We continued to meet up and hang out every now and then. He's good people.
Then member JackYoSelfFoo came to my house to pick up some woodwork I made for him. He's been over a few times and hung out with me and my girl and daughter... He's also good people.
I met Rewindicus and his boyfriend at Burning Man (alongwith Liquid Glass and Passifloracarulia (sp?)). A while later I went and hung out with Rewindicus and his dude in their city. We went out and I crashed as their place... Also good fucking people. I got trashed and made a fool of myself, but they were cool about it They even showed me their huge gay penises 
I think I've met more, but I'm drawing a blank. I have like 40/50 members here as Facebook friends, too... And I'll talk to/text several every now and then (the late Zappaisgod, Burke, Rose, etc)
Suffice it to say, everyone I've met has been totally fucking cool and I look forward to meeting more.

Me too. We'll rip it up. Maybe. I might have to settle down.

Let me ahead of time, I'm off friday through mondays, studying for my nclex, but I take a break now and then. Not much of a drinker or smoker, but I like a good buzz and good convo, even lite convo, I'm a social person. I like to play pool too. Killer little neighborhood bar called beaver dam, great reuben and wings.
I would like to meet you shiithead as well, you have a fun sense of humor it seems, and I like that!
