P.S - please get Miles on it. Gold. Pure gold.
@Fenster It seems some people have EXTREME ANXIETY & NEUROSIS about showing their faces and engaging in such things. I was trying for YEARS to get :-X to do video calls and all he did was say "why would anyone in the world want to do a video call?" and that it was stupid. If you are a psychologist Fenster, then it will be clear to you they are suffering from severe identity and self-perception issues in the social interaction context, insecurity for sure and discomfort with themselves. So they explain it away as something "stupid". Then others here have mentioned jerking off and wearing masks and other warped/perverted things, masking their severe emotional and psychological issues by trying to use what they think is humour and discrediting/denigrating the idea of a SaddoZoom Meeting. A mere 30-second stroll with :-X in 2016 out of a NYC pub was THE END OF THE WORLD for him and :-X , that I had made a quick video! Oh! The absolute tragedy of it! FFS

I never thought you were accusing me of being angry hence my entirely chilled response. I think if someone is going to record it then that becomes something different again, and most participants would no longer bother signing in. It is kind of the point that it is a one off, where if you want to have the opportunity to speak to someone face to face, you have to be willing to do so yourself. You can just use the audio with your camera turned off if you you want to listen in, or just reveal your voice if you think you are too sexy for your shirt.
Would be great if Gandalf and El Kabong and some of the most prolific posters popped in, but i don't expect they want to run the risk of actually accidentally having their preconceptions shattered and actually quite liking someone once they speak face to face ;D
I should get a webcam because it is hard to see everyone's face on a little phone
It really WOULD be great. HOnestly, once we all meet each other like this, in person and live, all the old preconceptions will be shattered. It is a great thing.

Nobody will call you a racist Nazi etc... if you think people here FACE TO FACE ON A LIVE VIDEO CALL are going to behave that way, ---- this is a written forum, only typing, flat, no tone detected, misunderstandings, words, mood, all that is missing in the written word, weekend warrior keyboard warrior stuff,.... FACE TO FACE people do NOT behave that way, actually accidentally having their preconceptions shattered and actually quite liking someone once they speak face to face.
It is plain as day. This is the moment we, Saddo'ers and we, humanity itself, can step up and really get along. We've done 2 meetings already, both went extremely respectful, kind, cordial and nice and fun. I cant imagine anyone on these live face to face meetings suddenly start to call names and etc....
Won't happen, and that person who tries such things in front of all the other friendly, boxing-lovers and great people, ..... nahhh thats not happening.
Everyone is welcome.

You are more than welcome to call me a Nazi, a racist and threaten me with violence if you are going to make that step and let your guard down enough to just have a chat in a face to face video call. That would be a blast mate. See you Saturday ;D

It's true Rich. There are some people however too juvenile to let down their guard and just have a cordial, adult conversation...
But I will defend their right, till the end of time, to curl up in their cocoons.

Hey Brock... I commend you for wanting to get us all together in a friendly chat. Nothing wrong with that. My own personal position is that I have no objections to meeting some of the people I've interacted with for years on the forum. It seems only logical. The counterpoint to that is that in some cases too much has been said. Too many personal insults have been thrown around casually..... to now expect everyone to just drop everything and pretend nothing has ever happened. Me personally.... I may or may not participate on this or future Zoom gatherings. Not because I can't bring myself to talk to anyone on here (save for one glaring exception)..... but because I may have other engagements. But again.... I commend you for the initiative.
Even in the previous posts, some just can't help themselves with the innuendos and the barb-throwing. That does little to encourage others to join. Let's face it..... yeah maybe we'll all come away with a little more understanding of each other which should in turn improve the atmosphere in the forum. But in extreme cases it might just be like lighting a torch in a darkened room just to read the labels on the kerosene cans.
Yeah... I had mentioned doing this in the past, as the forum cynical fuck indirectly threw in there. It doesn't mean I'm remotely looking forward to putting a voice together with the keyboard personality challenged fuck.

Thanks Tito. And yeah I understand what you're saying. Of course if people have other engagements, they cannot join in that day. And if things have been said in soe cases as you said , too much, .... that may give some pause for thought. BUt I just think face to face everybody will be calm and it will be fun. I mean we've already done 2 of them. It went great. Tito, if you're around it would be great, if you're busy, of course you will be with family, friends, or whatever, its normal and we would just look forward to another time. Slim for example works nights and has a hard time making that time.
I really think based on the first 2 Zooms we've had that everything will be laid back, pleasant and fun.
