I'm pro safe calls in general, but to the same degree you would have one for any first time social encounter...

I don't believe there is a higher proportional risk to meeting someone from the Net. But then I've said that before.

I am just using my own situation as a guideline, I am quiet and tend to be a bit distant most times. It takes me a long time to be comfortable and to actually get to know others. So while I do "know" people, I don't know people well enough to ask a favour such as this. I just wonder if there are others who are new and do not know many people, who would just forgo the safe call, because there are no other options available to them.

I suppose that am going to answer my own question since there are really no other viable options that can overide the significance and importance of a safe call.
But thanks, and if I ever did actually meet someone, I would more than likely think twice and find someone who would help out.
