Speaking from a perspective of if I were hypothetically single, there are several ladies here on C-D that I find to be completely enchanting, and very endearing and sweet...not naming any specific names though, for privacy reasons

Something about being sweet and wise beyond your years gets me every time. Sense of humor helps too.
Awww thank you. Nice to meet you too.

I dunno.
You'd think it'd be all raucous and randy and possible violent, but I am betting it'll be quieter and more polite than we think.

Then the reality tv folks will get all cheezed off and pull our funding and some people will be stuck in Vegas.

But maybe I've had a lot of practice civilly dealing with people I disagree with (in person...hahahahaha!).

Always the case, in my experience with other forums/meetups.

Well, it's unlikely we'll talk about the stuff we talk about here.
It'll be more freeform and just general get-to-know-you conversation.

Maybe if we sit at a round table and people pull topics out of a hat.
For each beer, we have a new topic...discussion lasts till the last person finishes his drink.

The last topic (10 beers later) can be whether or not cheaters deserve to date fat chicks who divorce them for all their money.

But this hasn't prevented me from getting dates (and my current relationship) based on my posts alone. Hah!

The forum where I met my SO actually was known for frequent social meetups in various cities across the country. I didn't meet my SO that way, though. He fell for me sight unseen, and vice versa.

I have met a lot of people from forums in real life over the years (none from here, though). My general experience is that it happens OFTEN that the people I hit it off best with are people I didn't necessarily even notice a great deal as posters. It also often happens that quieter posters are much more outgoing in real life, and even more often, the most chatty posters are the quietest in a group. Some people are much more in their element writing their thoughts out than speaking them openly. I lean that way myself.

^^^^ This.

I too NEVER post pictures of myself or even give my real first name online. (I have a real life stalker sad to say).

But it has not stopped me from getting numerous on line dates and meeting people on forums in real life, men and women (none from here, but from other forums). Our meetings were a complete blast -- we all had the best time, and I have met a couple of my closest GF's from these meet ups.

I think a CD meet up would be great! And I am sure most of us would be shocked and surprised at the faces behind the screen names.
