I'm afraid I'm going to have to answer this question as NO, I don't use the forums to pick up guys, unless they want to be my friends, but then again if that's the case... I use the forums to pick girls up too.
Why not? Whats the difference between meeting people online and in real life? They are the same people. The good thing I think about meeting people online is that you would never have met them at all if you didn't find them online. Or you would have probably have passed them in the street without ever saying a word to each other.
