Best. Day. Ever. I met Elloa in Wrothgar <3

A Hollywood entertainer or internet personality could be sitting right next to me on a plane, and I'd not know it if they told me who they were.

Nah same. I don't keep up with the news or watch TV, but I spend enough time on the forums to recognise someone from here.

... unless it is Malukah. I would be delighted to meet her in game :-)

I have met a few fellow forum regulars in the game. No one seems to know me from the forums other than the people I regularly group with.

You mean to tell me people actually squee at internet "celebs" in Tamriel? Well hell lol

Personally I'm not the type to give a damn about fame so if I ever saw someone famous or even saw a GM I'd be like "hi" and move on lol

No, has nothing to do with "celebrity status". It was the first time I've met a forum regular and someone heavily involved with the ESO community, so kinda surprised me.

Well for all I know I might come across forum regulars all the time and they across me lol but who knows.

I know you from the forums! Your posts here are the reason I joined LWH almost a year ago!

My dreams finally came true, and I saw Elloa in Wrothgar. Unfortunately I stood there for 20 seconds awkwardly before getting on my Guar and riding away without saying much. Smooooth.
You guys ever met someone you've always wanted to see from the forums? I hope your encounter was less awkward than mine. Sorry Elloa! xD

When people recognize me in game they tend to run the other direction

Aw now why would they do a thing like that? I would, but that's because I'm weird

This is why the rest of Tamriel (specifically Cadwell's Silver and Gold) needs a REDUX . All players need to play in each campaign TOGETHER.

I can see it now...

EP Player: Oh! An AD Player! DIE!! *Cannot attack because it isn't Cyrodiil* Nooooo why
AD Player: Ohai EP Player how's your mom? Sucks that you can't attack me for it nyah
DC Player: ...Yeah I'm gonna just stay out of that one.

Note: These are just what ifs and in no way represent each faction lol

PBpsy

I think I puged DC with someone from here today. Said nothing.

I met @Helgi_Skotina couple of times in the sewers and it certainly wasn't pleasant encounter.

Oh man, it never dawned on me that I could possibly run into forum members in-game. Sometimes my smarts get in the way of my brain. Hope to see some of you out there:

This assumes players would know what faction each other are. There's no reason to have that publically displayed.

I coincidentally met 2 of my friends at random places in the game, not knowing that they were even in the same zone. One of them I think I met even 6 or 7 times randomly. The other one I noticed when his name showed up right next to me when we both exited the "Adept's Retreat" in Windhelm in the exact same moment, we didn't see each other inside the building (too busy at the crafting tables, I guess)

However, I don't know if I met anyone from the forums yet, not everyone has their characters' names in the signature
But from time to time I see certain players (which I don't know) in different zones again while questing or doing other random stuff, even with a longer break inbetween while levelling alts (so they/I could be anywhere, right?). Just a few days ago, I saw a player in Wrothgar which I already saw several times in lower level zones some time last year. Not sure if he/she recognizes me, though, since I'm rolling more than one character through all zones^^


Edit: sorry, I was wrong, I DID meet someone from the forums, I almost forgot (can I put your name here, @Shunravi?^^). I met him three times on one single day when I tried to do the PvE quests there, many moons ago when my DK was VR6. Well, I didn't survive his Uppercuts. Three times, each in different towns (or around) XD ... After this, I levelled metal weapon skill lines

[EDIT] And yes, I actually was able to meet up with some folks from the forums on the PTS for IC and ran a dungeon, and hit up IC! 'Twas great fun!

PTS Popcorn FTW

Aye that was fun and we were surprisingly good together.

Aside from Miss Bizz, UrQuan and Hero, I've been killed often by Fengrush and Sypher lol.
Also several guildies of mine on here.

I met Nicholas Lea about 10 years ago. He played Special Agent Alex Krycek on the X-Files which was a show I absolutely loved until Dunchovny left.

Some people like to represent their faction though. Hopefully in a pleasant way...

Elloa

OMG guys, that thread!

You need to know, that everytime someone whisper me "Are you the Elloa from Youtube? I like your video" its me who get super happy and blushing and what not. I'm making those videos hoping that people would enjoy them and so I'm feeling very happy and grateful when someone remember me. I'm sorry if I miss sometimes whispers @Maotti_Nor : I'm a bit distracted in game as I enjoy the immersion and keep my chat window at minimum and often on a customised chat with only my guild chat on.

@Alucardo I'm sorry I only greeted you briefly as I was busy organizing an event with my guild, I was not really paying much attention to anything else.

It was actually your Orsinium one that got me to play it in first place. I had no intention of trying it until I saw your 6 part impression of it, so thanks! Your videos definitely make a difference and help the ESO community in a big way.

Lol no problem. As you saw I didn't know what to say anyway. Can't say I've ever been shy in a video game before, but there's always a first!

There's a professional halo player named flamesword. He was the first esport player featured on a red bull can. What would be your reaction if you met him in game?

I don't play Halo, or know this person. If I met him, I wouldn't know who I was talking to.

Ok, well you now know of him. Lets say you came across him in game. Your reaction?
