Came here to say the same. It’s the last sentence of their deep post suggests playing in person.

I can’t imagine playing Bughouse online. It is the most fun you’ll have playing chess and it’s all about the interpersonal experiences.

In the simpler times of the mid-90’s, on Autumn Sunday’s my college flatmates and I would drink beer, watch football, and play Bughouse. High fives, smack talking, wild sacrifice tactics… soooo much fun!

I do admire the commenter that took it to hardcore levels too — a different path.
