Definatly and it let's us fellas get a little insight into a lady's personality before deciding to make initial contact. I'm kind of a screwball so I give extra points for a good sense of humor in a gal. You can tell a lot about personality from board persona, but then again the two ladies I've had the most fun with in the hobby have had little to no board presence. Go figure!!  
I was kind of the resident story teller on our board for a while untill I got tired of keeping it going, it was fun though and good for ice breaking on a first meeting when a lady would ask about a certain story being true or BS. No way I'd ever admit weither or not I took liberties or embellished one of my tall tales lol!!!
