I've been here almost 2 years now and met a couple of people including my current Dom- who I have been with for 1 1/2 years. When I was looking it didn't seem very hard to meet people from here, I let them know right off that I was looking for more than cyber and mostly limited my search to local men to begin with.

My last count is over a hundred.  Some were just saying hello, some I've played with, and some that turned out to be great friends,.
And I met LP here... but I'm not sure she's really real. I might need to meet you again just to check that out LP :)

I've met several people from CM, including my current play partner and the girl I'm dating. I've also made some good friends through CM.

I've met people from here, though due to my  standards, restrictions and geographic location, and probably other factors, not that many.  I don't do the long-distance thing anymore, which might be limiting. 
When I was open to just play partners without strings or compensation, I actually met a ton of people, none of whom turned out to be quite what I was looking for, or vice versa, I assume.  When I specified that I was looking for something longterm and specific, the numbers decreased dramatically. Since you want compensation for your time, OP, (and I feel you should have compensation in one form or another) I think that eliminates a large number of guys.

Yes, I have meet people off CM
Some are wonderful people, that I am blessed to have in my life. Others are asshats. However, I dont think you can truly expect one without the other.

I have not met anyone from the CM website specifically, but have met people that after we have talked, we've discovered we're both here,  Some one mentioned the statistic 15% for people meeting on the web, well according to advertisements from both E-harmony, and Match.com that figure is one in five. Additionally I have read that that 20% is only going to increase in the future.  The "dating game" has changed and possibly for the better thanks to the internet.  As I guy I always hated jumping through the mind game hoops so many women want to put up, so I pretty much stopped "dating" after I was 27.  When my buddies and I would go out it was understood I was going out to get drunk, and not chase after the women.  I didn't care.  Hell I am only with my wife because we met at our local junior college, and we were sort of "set up" at that.

Yes, i have met people from collarme. Whether it works out, or not, that's a different story...

Take the difficulties of dating and compatibility. And now, add kink. I think it's just really, really hard to find a match.

P.S.- i have met many valuble and interesting friends.

Yes, people to meet people from here.  So far I've met about 50.  There is no secret word, just the willingness to meet a stranger for coffee.  Only one person out of all I've met was a real dud.  Many remain good friends.  We visit them when we're in their area and they visit us when they're in ours.

I have met four girls I regularly play with on CM, three who were amused by my posts and one who liked my profile. I swap emails from some people I will never meet, which is all right and I have two good friends in las vegas I ran into here who I meet whenever I am over there. My only beef is that the girls I meet here are so young, I would love to meet a sub lady my own age, someone who remembers glam rock and flares.
Ladylove has met loads of girls on here.
The magic word is patience.

Met my current girl on CM. She is amazing.
But for the most part it's a very hard place to meet people. Far more get frustrated and leave than you hear about, because most don't bother to let us know they're not here anymore. :p
I've been here six years under various logins, and only had one successful result. Not that it wasn't worth it, just saying, don't expect to put in a couple weeks of effort and have several close relationships out of it. Unless you're just that amazing, I guess.

Ive met around 10 people off of this site, some developed into  intamate relations, some just coffee meets.  Many have flown here to Houston just to meet me.  I am very safe about it and meet them in a public place in the daytime.  Safety is first.  Many tend to forget, these are strangers, and unless you hire some kind of P.I. and do some extensive background check ... you dont know these people or anyone they know to do a reference check.  I go with my gut feeling after I meet them in person.  So far so good and in life you have to take chances ... just make sure that you have your ducks in line when you do ...

Bo.

Yes, people really do meet thru here.  I've met a few Doms, although things didn't work out, we're still in touch.  And the Man I'm with now, met on here too.  We spent about 2 months corresponding just as friends before it moved to D/s, a relationship still in the works but so far so good.

Based on what I have read there are people who meet and connect. I think any 'dating' site takes time and patience.
Sometimes we can be in such a hurry to meet someone that in the end it becomes frustrating. Sometimes it takes the attitude
of 'whatever' and in a sense giving up before we can meet our one.

Add in the base of kink and whatever else is our requirement for a relationship, it can take a long time to find someone.

Met my future Owner and Wife within hours of joining the site.  It was really easy.  We've been happily together for several years now.

Do I meet random horny men who ask on CM?  Hell no.  That's mostly a waste of time, as half will stand you up and the other half are creepy, boring, rude as hell, or even potentially dangerous.  But anyone who will go to a local BDSM community event that I am also attending can meet me very easily.  That's what I use as my safety filter and also my asshole filter.   Works great for me, and I've met a LOT of people who also happen to have profiles here or on Fet.

My husband and I met on here :) First date wasn't supposed to be more than dinner, but i broke that rule and we played. That was 4 1/2 years ago. We just got married last month and it's an awesome adventure. There is nothing like having someone you can throw an idea out to and have them say, sure we can try that!

besides him, I met 5-6 one off play partners, some of who became long term non-play friends. And i've met some people who are extremely special to me, including one i have never had the pleasure to meet in person but who is counted as one of my best friends. My husband and I have also met a few couples we have paired up with for a little fun as well. Not as many as we would like, but being in such a rural, restricted area, without the internet we likely wouldn't meet anyone else
