To me it isn't important if you meet sooner than later, though sooner is almost always desirable. What IS important is to follow all the safety rules for a first meet. Meet in a public place, where you both arrive separately and leave separately. Let a friend know you are going, and roughly how long you expect to be. Don't go somewhere alone with someone on the first meet. I know a lot of people do it without any dire consequences, but they, never the less, are rolling the dice with their safety. If the connection is there, what's the rush? It will only grow stronger.
Personally I like to meet as soon as possible. If you have emailed back and forth, chatted on the phone a few times, and there seems to be chemistry there, go for it. Too many people in this lifestyle want to do ichat for weeks, emails for weeks, phone calls for weeks. It gives them a false sense of security because even if you talk for two years, you still won't really know who they are until you MEET. I'm not suggesting you should rush into anything you are not comfortable with. Just saying that if the chemistry seems to be there, how convenient to find out sooner rather than later whether it was or not.
