off-topic Have you made a great friend from online?

[Ja sa bong]

Making friends online is not very difficult because on social media sites like Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Tiktok and many others, it's easy to be added/followed as a friend. This doesn't mean you have any good bond or friendship with many of them on your list.

Before you can start seeing any of them as your true friend, a lot must have happened between both of you to make the friendship strong.

Who are your true online friends?

Well, I have made some great friends online. The have even helped me with money. If you value the friendship, even the virtual friends can be as good as real friends.

Yes, I did a while back but unfortunately the person is no where to be found now
I missed him a lot

I have made some very good friends online. I mean friends that have even evolved to become business partners and close associates. I have leveraged the online space to build valuable relationships.

I have made a couple of friends online, especially from Facebook. I met a few in person and I never got to meet many of them. We just had our discussion online but I've really made good friends online.

I have made a couple of cool friends online. The ones that I chat and relate better with. Those ones have been really helpful in making me a better person.

I have a lot of online friends, I will probably never meet them in real life as they are from another continent, however, they are just like my family. I have been in good terms with some of my virtual friends since 2013.

I've met a lot of great people over the years online, especially @Heatman @Ja sa bong @Shawn and @Harsh World. We've all become pretty close. I've known some of ya'll for over 5-13 years. It's awesome meeting people online and getting to know them. It's like they become family.

 

[Harsh World]

I was homeschooled during middle school and found a nice clique of people who played Counter-Strike in Florida. They were also beta testers of my text-based game, as we initially met on a text-based game that led to the creation of mine. We'd regularly all talk on AIM, too. Those were the days.

It wasn't but a year or two ago that I found them through "similar friends" to try and get in contact with them over Facebook. However, I never got a response, probably because it was blocked by the Messenger spam filter.

It would definitely be cool to go hang out with them and see how our lives have changed since then, as we spent all summer days playing, and when their school started, school nights playing both CS 1.6 and the text-based game.

You're also a very good friend of mine. I'm close to @Heatman and @Henry too. I know @Shawn from FP but not close to him. I've used his cycling forum some time ago.

Absolutely, I have made a couple of good friends online through gaming communities and forums and I maintained close contact with a handful of them.

It's why I try my best to have a means of connection outside forum with the close friends I've made. It's either we chat on WhatsApp or Discord, I will have the person's email address to reach them whenever it's convenient.
