If you're looking online for people with the intention of having a real relationship then that seems okay to me.

Graal relationships are stupid and anyone who engages in them is delusional if they truly think they love someone like that.

ANY relationship situation where you have never met the other person in real life and don't know who they really are when they arent behind a screen is not a true relationship.

Why do you people care about what other people choose to do if it's not affecting you?

It's called having an opinion.

As it says online dating not being specifically to graal. I would say it's okay as long as you actually keep things moving forward. Meeting the person, starting the relationship, moving on to actually seeing each other through some type of communication, physical or cyber. Sometimes actually nobody knows what is to come. You might find your "one to be with" or find a disappointment. Love prevails over all! Until you actually find a lunatic to see you in real life and kidnapping you, but hey that's like 1 in a thousand.

My windowless van has gone on many a journey.

But online relationships aren't exactly mediocre or pathetic. It's just another way to meet someone, although it may be odd in the sense that your first contact with a person is over the interwebz. If it makes people happy, then so be it.
Ah. Young love.

dating online on graal is funny. I dunno why they do it, but if that's what they like, good for them. Online dating on sites made for it, i used it before and i somewhat like it.

So if two people meet on Graal and a relationship forms between them that's stupid, but paying money to sign up for a dating website is not? I think your opinion is stupid.

I don't really care, It's just another way to be close to someone in a game in my opinion. I personally wouldn't do it and would rather date someone a bit closer to home. But I don't really mind online dating, doesn't affect me at the slightest.

It isn't that bad, sometimes its horrible but if they both have several reliable means of speaking to each other (skype, text, etc etc) i don't see why not?

Aw look at the iClassic admin defending all the 10 year olds who have sex role play on his server.

Yeah its stupid because those kids have no intention of ever meeting the other person in real life. Adults going on eHarmony or something to seek a REAL relationship is an entirely different thing. Terrible comparison on your part, do you really not see the difference?

That's not what I'm doing at all. What I'm saying is that there's nothing wrong with two people meeting on graal, or any other game for that matter, and forming a relationship. Actually it would make a lot more sense to me to meet a person via a video game as opposed to having to shell out a monthly fee to be matched with someone.

So not exactly a terrible comparison on my part, more like ignorance on yours.

I've actually met quite a lot of cool people on the internet and even couchsurfed with one who lived in London a few years ago. (We were MSN friends and I still contact him every now and then).

Scaal 06-02-2013 02:27 PM

There are lots of people who met people online and ending up meeting them irl. Sometimes it works out, and sometimes they find out there dating a 10 year old. You just got to be careful.
Fun fact, the singer Lights met her husband on WoW.
