I'd be down with meeting people, especially if there were an event in my area or within reasonable driving distance that I knew some EF folks would be attending. That would be a really great environment because everyone's there for their own reasons, and meeting online friends would just be a bonus ^_^ less

Possibly. I've made friends online before, but I've never met any of them. It has never really been a priority for me though. If I just happened to be in the same city/town at the same time -- and if it was convenient and in a public place (and if I was with my husband if I am meeting a man), then a brief visit over coffee might be fun. For example, if I knew that someone with whom I have had friendly correspondence was visiting Las Vegas or some other place at the same time, then I would be more likely to suggest a brief meeting. But I'd never travel somewhere for the sole purpose of meeting them.

And, yeah . . . I'd love to see Lauren's and Carrie Ann's legendary collections in person, too . . . Perhaps they could open a museum some day! LOL! less

I would love to work at EF damnit. Lol. In reality though, I wouldn't mind meeting the people I have become acquainted with. There are a few I would eb excited to meet. I think it would be fun to have the common ground of reviewing sex toys, because I feel comfortable about sex and I wish I could get some of my damn girlfriends to get their butts on here! They seem to like sex as much as me, but they don't want free sex toys. less

/Agree! Honestly, my dream job is working at some sort of Sex Toy Shop or Company, if I didn't live about 500 miles away from where Eden's HQ is, lol, I'd put in an application.

I wouldn't mind meeting people from EF, but I'd have to have ground rules:

1) Synthetik would have to approve

2) He would have to be with me when I met with the person(s) in question for coffee/lunch/dinner or whatever

3) And the person in question would have to know that, as quoted from Synthetik himself, "... let [them] know we don't play with others" (name/gender term omitted by me for privacy issues)

I was recently approached actually about meeting someone on here in person, and those were pretty much the guidelines. It's not in offence to the person or anyone, not at all (and I hope they know that, lol) but with meeting people from the internet, you have to be careful. That and my definition of meeting someone (ie: going to coffee, lunch, dinner or something) may be different than other's definition of meeting (as in, doing intimate things, I guess), and Synthetik told me to put that on the table right from the beginning, so I did . He just wants to make sure I'm safe and is very protective of me, not that I mind, of course less

I think your rules are not only good but very important! Safety, security, and partner approval are key. Someone should never make you feel uncomfortable, threatened, or have to hide/lie to your life partner(s). And anyone who takes issue with such practical and simple ground rules wouldn't be worth meeting.

And since you mentioned the EF headquarters, I had to look it up. I'm about 510 miles away too! But actually, I didn't know it was so close! I don't know why I expected it to be on the west coast, but I did. I would soooo relocate to work for EF though. But I don't have much in the way of highly desirable work experience for the corporate positions. less

Thank you, Jen I'm glad that you agree with me on the rules, that way I know I'm not too crazy, lol

Honestly I expected EF's HQ to be on the West Coast as well. I think it's mainly because I live on the East Coast (in NC) and it seems like almost all the cool stuff is on the Western Coast of the US (Like the video game company, Blizzard Entertainment's HQ, BlizzCon, and all kinds of stuff.

Synthetik is from New Jersey, so if ever he wanted to take a visit up there, I think I'd see about visiting the EF Headquarters. If they'd allow me in, anyway And I'm with you, I wouldn't mind relocating to work for EF, lol. I just looked it up and I'm 517 miles south-ish of them. I may not have experience in corporate-ness, but I'll be darned if I wouldn't have an arse load of passion and willingness to learn to make up for it lol. Not to mention product experience as well.

Sooooo, *hint, hint* if you all are hiring up there in NJ, you all know where to find me

I'm just kidding, lol
