Anonymous Poll: Would you be interested in anonymously meeting up with fellow lucid dreamers

I'm in the midwest too. maybe a general location poll would be good to have as well

I wanna meet gavingill. I think he would be fun as hell

It may be said earlier, but can't we make a ONLINE dream conference? Then everyone can join?

I think I made a thread before asking if anybody was interested in a meetup in Western Australia but got no responses. =[

Also how do you meet up anonymously? Do we wear masks? :-P

Hmmm... I can't think of any dv members in Australia... especially not any that would be up for meeting anyone on the Internet. I think you are out of luck.

I just wanted to give a quick update. I am waiting to hear back from senior staff (I spoke to OpheliaBlue so far) regarding:

I would like to request that DV create a sub-forum or section (perhaps entitled "Meet In Person") where people can post where they are interested in meeting up. A majority are not worried about anonymity but for those who are I recommend they have a member that they trust post in the appropriate thread for them. For example: fogelbise posting proxy for "anonymous #1" (or for "Manhattanite007"...or whatever) in the "Manhattan meetings" thread. Scenario: Sageous interested in same thread. Sageous PM's fogelbise and fogelbise makes the connection OR Anonymous #1 PM's Sageous directly if they are comfortable to do so. Members can post their interest in as many threads or locales that they would be interested in meeting at or travelling to. What does everyone think? I think it also would need to have a sticky or rule that it is only for ages 18 and up as well and general tips to make sure people are meeting in safe, public places like busy coffee shops. Specifics of meetings could be hashed out by PM. This section of the forum could be made readable by members only.

Haha. In case anyone was wondering about this...basically the other member will see your face but unless you are famous they will not be able to put your face to your identity other than..."hey it's Sageous right? Nice to finally meet you in person! You can call me Al." You set up the way to recognize each other ahead of time by private message or however you choose.

Forgive the question from an old guy, but is there a reason we must be anonymous? I never quite understood who this helped...

^^It may be different for different people but for me it mainly comes down to my wife not wanting me to "mess with" my dreams. I use fogelbise instead of my legal name in case she ever goes looking up my name to see what craziness I'm up to. I also post some embarrassing things in my dream journal that I don't really want connected to my name. I would have no problem giving you my first name if we were meeting up...and I hope we do one day! :)
