Well today in my CS 1.6 server, 2 guys came in and they happened to live about a 6-7 minute bikeride from me.... one of them goes to my school and the other is that guys neighbor. About a month ago I also found another guy that lives about a 10 min drive from me. A guy on the overclocking forums lived a few minutes away from me right next to my grandma's house (except we both moved a little while ago)

Has anyone found someone that lives incredibly close to you over a forum/game or something?

    Once I was speaking to a friend in a chat room (years ago). There was some really annoying person bugging us sending silly messages etc.....anyway next day I am telling a lad in college about it and someone behind us heard us talking. The annoying person turns out to be the girl behind us. Sounds way too much of a coincident I know, but this chat room was a world wide thing which makes it even more amazing......she even logged in to prove it as we narurally didnt believe her.

    small world after all lol rolleyes.gif

    There is a guy here who is a Filipino but I don't think he's a neighbor.
    Forgot his name but he sports an avatar resembling the philippine flag.

    So no.

    On another forum, I met a kid that goes to my school. It was so weird how I found out though.

    Yeah, he used to be my best friend's neighbor.

    Nope, no one within an hour of me =/. But I guess I live in the north west, we're practically barbarians.
