Maybe something like road rules challenge or any series of challenges. I might show up for something like that.

I don't post profile pics, anywhere, ever, on public forums, nor will I start.

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.

Haha, who even thinks this way?

Something about being sweet and wise beyond your years gets me every time. Sense of humor helps too.
Dewdrop would definitely get it(If she wasn't married with a baby).

What, with a post/rep ratio like yours? What would they do to ME, then?

Probably none I'd actually want to date; I haven't seen any who seem like a good match for me (hey, just like real life!). But there are several I'd enjoy hanging out with.
