I met a fellow Ingress player once (in, luckily, a public place for a brief period of time). Weirdly, obsessively creepy, the kind of person who stares fixedly at your left ear while talking. I'm sure he wasn't representative, but...

Besides, if I wanted to talk to other humans, I wouldn't be playing a computer game! I gave up on Eve for the same reason, once I ran out of early game content and realised I'd have to join a corp to progress.
