Ummmm.....
I've lost count! Actually, there are about 20 that I talk with fairly often (some of whom I've connected with). Then, there are the other 100 or so that I only chat with periodicly.

Hey! I wondered if that was you. But, I didn't want to out you if you didn't want me to. I'd actually deleted my SN and stepped away from all of this for a bit. Now that I'm back, it's good to see you again. It's been a while! 😉

nope...sorry...just aol
There's more than 100 people I know, now, and consider friends. Most I've met, even, but there are folks I've not met, and value still.
Heck, it's the folks from this interest that have helped me most when I've needed such. Usually it's just supportive chat, and usually, that's what I need.
That I get to meet with any number of them, every month, is great. Now, when on biz trips, I figure out who's near, and visit 'em. Beats the hell outta seein' local bars, or touring local sights by night.
Best part is that I'm still meetin' more of ya every month.

Like so many here I've lost count. I've been online since the Fall of '96 and I've met probably thousands online. But I have the advantage of being a woman. (and you guys wonder why I can't talk in the chatroom sometimes? IM Hell I tell ya!)
Oh... and DAVE??? You just focus on Jen next week. Yeah... do that. I'll feel safer that way for sure! LOL

To be honest, they are far fewer than I expected. I've been 'in the community' for a few years now. When I first found tickling on the net, I was like most of us and felt such a great feeling knowing we were not alone. Then, with the arrival of the TMF and the chatrooms, I figured I'd be able to talk with all sorts of people and maybe even find someone who's from my area.
However, for some reason, that has just not happened. Let's face it, there are a lot of unsociable people in this forum and we've all encountered some of them. These kind rarely post, are never in the chatroom except in silent attempts to PC someone, and don't interact with others. That's fine if that's who they are. So forget any hope of befriending these people.
Don't get me wrong, most people are friendly. I do talk with a few people in the chat rooms, but for some reason, I'm having problems socializing. You can only say, "Hey guys, what's going on?" so many times when you realize there isn't much and if there were, no one's telling you about it. My guess is that most people have interacted with others into tickling for a long time now, so they pretty much have their own 'cliques' (I hate to use that term, but I can't think of anything else). I'm not saying they don't talk to the new people. It's just that they probably have some history with the people they consider their friends here (been knowing each other a while, maybe even met them in real life, etc), and naturally have more in common with them and can share memories, yada yada. That's the way it seems to me when I'm in the chatroom and I can see how well some people know other people. The whole outta-the-loop syndrome.
So basically, there are the experienced people I described above, and then there are the newbies, so to speak. The problem there is that most of these people are shy. I can't tell you how frustrating it is to initiate a conversation with some people, it's like pulling teeth. They're just too stand-offish
I don't know, maybe I have a warped perspective. It may stem from the lack of names in the Yahoo! address book, from the countless times I've been bored outta my gourd in the chatroom, from the too many unreturned e-mail messages I've sent to new people. Maybe I just don't visit this place as often as most people. I don't know.
This is getting a little too personal, but this stuff is not unique to the people here in the TMF. I've had feelings of isolation in the real world too, so obviously, the problem isn't with the people here. That is evidenced by the other posts in this thread. Plus, truth be told, in spite of all I've written so far, there are some great people in here, and I thank them for being such. I had my reservations in writing a response, since I knew it would inevitably evoke a reaction that I did not intend to bring out because of my insufferable pride. But since these thoughts had to come out sometime, I lay them out right here.

Zero, nada, zilch. The only friends that I have online are ones that I already knew previously. Too much BS online to take the time to become friends. Way too many guys posing as women for me to ever trust who I am talking to on the other end. Now I know that doesn't happen in the tickling community now does it. There are some though that I feel in my heart are 100% female. All it takes is that little doubt that "she" has a penis and I get freaked.
Ah Oh! TTD wasn't supposed to see that post from me. Oh Man I'm SO hosed!
And Dave and Dave... I'm bringing the Garlic cloves and crosses and anything I can to protect me! But something tells me I'm just hosed no matter what I do.
Hey Dave (DVNC) You'd better plan on driving back to the motel because I'm probably going to be WRECKED! LOL
9 days and counting and I CANNOT WAIT.
