Random coincidences online?

Playing xbox live, the new Trials Evo, I played the multiplayer against a "JKK DARK s****" (blocked for privacy) and for the older members everyone remembers. But simply coincidence or one in the same.

Anything like this happen before to anyone else?

It turns out the synchtube I mod it had 3 regular members that live within 2 miles of me and that they knew who I was from seeing me run around town. There's only like 20 regulars.

I was tempted too, still in my recent players list. Thought it would be a little odd.

I found out I actually knew somebody on a car repair forum I frequent. Kinda odd.

One of my old coworkers played LoL with me a few days ago, it was pretty fun catching up with him when he realized it was me.

Not sure if it counts, but I met a member on here (Phil) and he lives very close to me.

Well, I did meet Cid and saIndustrian but that was after I already knew them from emuforums; not a coincidence.

I met a guy I went to high school with on this forum a few years back, and one of my former coworkers is also a member here I found out. The guy had no idea he's been working with an emu author the whole time.

Never met anyone in real life on any on-line community, or vice versa xD~
Other than facebook, of course...

Someone I met online and co-administrated an obscure forum with a long while back apparently spoke the same languages and attended the same university. True story.
