    Seriously I thought this is pretty interesting.

    Now, I would be making all kinds of disparaging remarks about the validity of this if it weren't for the fact that I actually knew this real online met couple of like 5-6 years at least through some game or another. Pretty damn impressive in this day and age... And if this was real, then they really DO have a reason to thank Rowling.

    Oh the dark phoenix story by the guy was also pretty decent, not exceptional, but decent, back in days when stories like this were few.

    I'm with Xiph0, the whole thing sounds like duplicate accounts, but if it is real, it's nice. I also know couples that met through games, but they usually were real, and both avatars were on at once, unlike this where we really have no proof.

    It all seemed very rehearsed( Copy, Paste, Edit ) when I read it, and ultimately kind of looked like bullshit.

    That's possible given the close date creations, and the VERY similar profiles, but I followed his dark phoenix story in 2004 for a long time and I didn't recall seeing this profile so he must have planned for a while. And there's some difference in style in the two's stories. Mehe, kind of funny still...

    I've known several that got together over MMORPG games, but usually they're two pathetic lonely soles that would of hooked up with the toaster if it had the right equipment to hook up with without kiling them, lol. Nothing beautiful about that!

    It looks off, if they were that grateful it'd be a bigger message I'd guess, but to each his/her own.
