Random question time: how many of you actually know your Steam friends? As in, do you know them in real life? How many of them have you actually met?

I tend to only add (or permanently add, rather) friends from day-to-day life.

I think I only know one person from my Steam friends list in real life. Majority of the people on my friends list are either from MMO's I used to play, the CAG community or from Steamgifts.

Same here! But most of my gamer colleagues are pirates, so they don't use Steam ;p

Most of my friends i've met irl and others are from SG (that i'm too lazy to delete) and co-op games such as Portal 2.

None. Rl friends are for FB, game/online/forum friends are for Steam.

I would but 99% of people I know do not buy games but rather either pirate them or stick to console gaming. Only one of my friends is buying original games but he prefers boxes and we usually play only blizzard games online since we're both huge fans and have played various blizz. titles last 10 years :)
As far as others go, If I play with them, we're usually in some gaming arena playing football (soccer for USA) and that's it...

+1, PC gaming has such a huge community yet a massive percentage of people I know use consoles or don't use Steam (either pirates or MMO gamers).

I would like to think that i'm pretty close with some of the people from my Steam list. I usually delete people if i didn't talked to them in a while, it's better to have few close friends rather than 100 acquaintances

I have special category too. For all close friends. Not for real live friends only.

I know one or two in real life, the rest are from online communities. I am really lazy, so I do not remove people unless they beg or attempt to scam.
