It's the only place where you can throw community relations people into the pool and even get other community relations people helping out! <img src="/smilies/283a16da79f3aa23fe1025c96295f04f.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" />Seriously though, it's just soo much fun meeting everyone, from people you play with, to other players that may play games you don't, from regular players to developers. And hanging out with the Aggro Fish is way fun! <img src="/smilies/283a16da79f3aa23fe1025c96295f04f.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" />

<p><3 SG!!</p><p>It's the people.  Talking to other people who are passionate about the games they play and finding out what about it makes them keep coming back is a great experience.  On the other side of the coin, getting to talk to the people who MAKE the games and see their passion for what they do is equally exciting.</p><p>It's just generally nice to make the people real by putting faces to the halfthings and wookiees.</p>

As a member of the Guide Program: To meet our fellow players we volunteer our time to in whichever game(s) we deal with and to spend a little face time with the SOE folks where we aren't talking only business. (lThis year my goal is to meet Domino and maybe gives her a hug for all the goodies she's been providing the EQII Guides to work with). As a player: To see fun things and meet fun people and to hear the latest news or info from the Devs.

A Fan Faire bottle openner hanging from a string of silver beads!

[ConradMax]

Seriously, to meet the people who bring us the games and the folks with whom we play.

[Fromage]

Where else am I going to go where I can wear pressed slacks, italian loafers and a DKNY polo and stick out like a soar thumb?

"They've got video games?! I was here for the free beer in the casinos"

[Jyve]

To geek out amongst other geeks.  It's not often we get to take our 'normal' faces off and not feel guilty about talking MMO's ALL night. It's my social geek out fix for the year.

To watch people running around with laptops, PDA's and other wireless devices, stopping every 15 feet to check for a connection.  Funny stuff!Oh, I have a good one:  To see Brasse's costume.
