I wouldn't say I knew her "well", but Betsy and I were acquainted with each other from rec.arts.comics, and we'd actually met once at a Worldcon, IIRC. Also Brenda M (Lysana on LJ). And I was already good friends with SF-Marty and Debg's husband.

What is even happening?
I recruited shrift to the Buffistas, though we still met in fandom.
Where did you met, Dana?

In fact, one of the reasons that I started regularly posting to the Buffy topic on TT was that I recognized not only Betsy, but also Jerry Boyajian and Mitch Wagner, so I felt "safe" about using my real name and online identity.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Not Brenda M... I think her last name is D. (Why is my brain filled with this kind of thing??)

Yup. D.

With that, however, I can't help you.

Sparky, did Lee introduce you to b.org, or did you run into her by accident, here?
Actually, I think I pointed Lee to b.org (possibly even TT) where I was lurking because we were discussing Buffy in email. She definitely posted first, though.

Sparky! We didn't get to post together for so long, this is the first chance I get to congratulate you on the big move. So, um, sort-of-congrats, I guess?

Ann, that's a ferret.
Did it take you long to figure it out, Fred Pete?
A while. I hadn't seen her in just this side of forever. Then she appeared on the board, and she mentioned some personal info. I thought I recognized her, and e-mailed later to confirm.
'Twas a weird feeling.

I can one up Jesse. Sometimes I think I only know people from here!
What happened, Kat?
John, yesterday's respiratory therapist, got Noah all calm and stable after doing all sorts of stuff to him. I waited a few minutes and went over and ruined all of John's work by poking at Noah and getting him all riled up again. I knew it would happen and told John that I may as well get him riled up since someone else currently has to deal with Noah when he's upset. John found it funny when I pointed out that I would be sure to pay for it soon enough when I had Noah at home.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

Yep. I think it was World Crossing though (that came after TT, right), right before the board moved here. Sparky lurked for a long time.
