*nod* I also guess some of how I approach this is informed by other experiences I've had.
I was at this weekend long party with a bunch of fans of a webcomic. One of the people there really put me on edge. She was perfectly pleasant in the forums, but in person, she was the total embodiment of "Poorly Socialized Geek". Would go on and on about things people weren't interested in, seemed oblivious to her impact on people around her.
Hardly the end of the world, you see plenty of people like that at a con. I was vaguely annoyed to be around this person, and avoided her a bit.
A couple weeks later she posts to one the forms saying I'm so weird it made the national news Having a sudden sense that maybe she's already trying, made me re-evaluate how I think about a lot of these kind of things.
