Anyone know how I can contact this enforcer?

Jesus... how many threads like this are going to pop up on here?
Punch your friends in the face. That's a foul.
"Hey is this you, I took a picture of you" And sling some bull. But hey, you know they say honesty is the best policy. Let's see if it works for you.
I just thought she was really nice and stuff. -_-
Because in the movies, the person searching is usually a normal guy that had a nice moment with the person that they're searching for and you can actually see that happen.
With the internet and the kind of people that inhabit it, you have to assume that the person searching is a nerdy dork and the girl actually just said 'hi' to him and he started obsessing over her that second.
May not apply here, but that's how I usually see it.
-_- She wanted to know what Starbucks I work at and I just wanted to tell her. I have a Girlfriend so it's not like that! >_< sigh
The definition of insanity is trying the same thing expecting different results. If you had told the forum you were looking for this dude and then posted his picture in the post you wouldn't have been dishonest. You wouldn't even have had to lie. You could have said "I need to find a friend of this guy" since he is of course friends with his sister. It's not about expressing untrue about yourself but instead choosing which truth about yourself you choose to express. Also taking into account you audiance is always advised.
Seriously though, I wanted to pretty much just give her a "hey, thanks for being really coolat PAX. you wanted to know what starbucks I work at, it's balblablablablabla. " that sort of thing. If she had a myspace or something, add her to my friends list on there.
-_-
You just keep making it worse for yourself.

Why don't you just tell her next year at PAX and quit the creepy stalkerness.
Man, you people are rough. I really don't see how this is being "creepy" in the least. He met an individual who he thought was pretty cool, and wants to contact the individual in question. Christ, guys.
I also have a blog!
He has a girlfriend
He is searching for another girl over the internet
He is a guy looking for a girl by asking other people who she is/how he can contact her
Most (all?) of us don't know this guy, and so can't vouch for him
Reasons this could be not-creepy:
I do believe there is such a thing as a platonic guy-girl relationship
He and she are both geeks - common interest is already established
How to maybe avoid being creepy, without lying or deceiving or telling half-truths:
Say "Hey, I saw this girl at PAX, she was an awesome Enforcer, we chatted and she wanted to know which Starbucks I work at. My friends pulled me away before I could answer her. If someone here knows her, ____ is the Starbucks I work at, please tell her she did an awesome job as an Enforcer, and if she wants to say hi she can PM me here."
Still has some of the creepy vibe, but this way, you aren't stalking her as much as requesting that one of her friends says hi for you, and offers her the chance to make the next move or totally ignore you.

Also, this.
I concor.
They cast a shadow like a sundial in the morning light. It was half past 10.
this is what I attempted to do...
It's far easier to see somebody in real life, follow them around in real life, and follow them to their home in... real life!
That's creepy stalker.
Looking for somebody is just looking for somebody.
most of all, most of all
someone said true love was dead
but i'm bound to fall
bound to fall for you
oh what can i do
Unfairly, I think it's kind of creepy, considering he mentions it here, in another thread, and again in a photoblog I stumbled on through the photo thread. You're a little hung up on the girl, considering you have a lady-friend already, kiddo.
Honestly, it was kind of cute until the part where you already had a girlfriend. PAX was a great place to flirt with likeminded strangers, and I kind of understand wanting to keep up that banter. But how would your girlfriend feel if she found this thread?
So if you dont get a reply then I guess they dont want to talk to you :P
People who yell "Creepy" only do so because of their sheltered life. Those who hav actually seen evil know that awkward is not creepy. But because most of them have never had a real experiance with a rapist, criminal, psociopath etc so the weird is evil. Peoples need to go experiance life. Something serious. How can that be bad advice? Seriously. I remember last year on here some guy named Red Machine D said he didn't want to go on public transportation because he heard of his friend getting raped on a bus or something. Seriouly. When people yell creepy it reminds me of stupid bitches (actual dogs) barking at people walking by their front yard. Let's just give you this little word of advice. That smooth guy that makes you feel nice, yeah that is the creepy date rapist. That awkward guy who makes you feel wierd, yeah he is just socially awkward.
I mean you have a right to your emotional reactions, your privacy and you dignity. But you do not have the right to never have an awkward conversation. Break on through to the other side. There may be something worth knowing over there. And stop yelling creepy when some one mentions gender, sex, sexuality, attraction etc. Please? Ok? Thanks.
Creepy- Ripping the cover off your yearbook, that was signed by only one girl. And then cutting & glueing every photo in the yearbook, of said girl, on to the cover. And then carrying it around for three days, until girl finds out.
(Useing a friend* I had from the Bay Area, who's name I won't say, for the Creepy part.)

My girlfriend doesn't care...I have friends that are girls, she has friends that are guys...kinda one and the same you know? I'm not interested in this girl "in that way"...-_-;; but alas, what's been done is done...
If your girl doesn't care, and the enforcer hasn't screamed, "eek!" then you're pretty much batting the same average you started with.
My opinion the issue is forum-filler and doesn't matter at all.
So WTFrick are you posting for, to enthusiasticly express your apathy? Horn of Gondor!
Singing of apathy from the hilltops of the internet is a time-honoured tradition.
Also, I feel bad for saying that he was creepy, since it obviously bothers him.
If the he was asking about a guy, would you have reacted this way? (Don't do the "that's gay" thing. It only makes you look more foolish.)
If it was a girl asking about a guy, would you have reacted this way? (Don't do the "that never happens" thing. See above.)
If it was a girl asking about a girl... wow, ok, that's hot. Go ahead and be foolish.
._.
I feel like a creep, too.
Or not.. Maybe it would be too ** CREEPY**
Awesome! I salute you. Courage in the face of awkward! Let the geek love flow.
Was Cheetos at 2006? Motherfucker loves cheetos!
I heard no.
