I've met many people I might never see in real life and we've all played many hours together as the hours add up you begin to know that person and I consider some of them good quality friends. Who else feels that way?
Edit: so I guess people feel the same; that's pretty cool I think.

My son has met 2 or 3 people through random matches that he now regularly raids with etc over the months they have become good friends and Skype each other. Most live pretty close by so I presume there is some geography involved in matchmaking. I'd always assumed it was totally random but I'm ignorant when it comes to online gaming.
