Face to face interaction. How much can you trust someone that you've only ever talked to on icq? Or the phone for that matter?
Sure you can't necessarily trust someone that you meet face to face but it sure does make things more real when you can look someone in the eye.

I like to be able to shake the hand of people that I like, talk to, become friends with and do business with.

Without conventions, I may never get that chance.
