hahaha Gil, very funny. :rolleyes: I'm just very forgetful about all the quizes I like in the Quiz room, they're hard to keep track of, so I'm always late for all the questions. It isn't my fault, there are just to many. :(

Encaitare 02-04-2005 02:41 PM

Welcome, Lucien; hope you like it here. :)

Welcome all new members. I just got here. (And I still have no clue what’s going on)

(Seriously, this is just a sneaky way of getting more posts with out really doing anything) :smokin:

elronds_daughter 02-05-2005 01:02 PM

You should figure it out eventualy, Beleg. Just as we've all learned not to be sneaky. Or, at least if we're being sneaky, not to mention that particular fact. The Wrath of the all-powerful Barow-Wight will descend, and 'tis not a nice thing to witness.

Gil-Galad 02-05-2005 01:04 PM

Welcome Beleg to the downs! this is the newbie thread! for all newbie members, such as yourself!

That’s always good to know. Btw that’ll be 2 rep points please. http://webpages.charter.net/connectingzone/shock/7.gif http://webpages.charter.net/connectingzone/happy/18.gif

Gil-Galad 02-05-2005 09:22 PM

good question... i don't seem to remember so i guess your back to being a newbie in my eyes!


well its not that i'm trying to scare them away, more make them act more mature in the forums so they don't annoy the mods and admins...making their life easier...

Ruoutorin 02-07-2005 08:36 AM

Hi Guys!
 
I just joined these forums and I come to you from Middle Earth Online (don't start throwing things at me just yet :p ). In MEO I found that most of my enjoyment of the forums came from the books and author threads and I spent very little time discussing the soon-to-be-released game. When someone on MEO mentioned that the Barrow-Downs forums are centered around these types of discussions, I came running.... and here I am a noobie lol.

Thank you. It generally is. But, I find it a bit strange that you guys assume that I’m dead. http://webpages.charter.net/connectingzone/sad/36.gif

Hi, Mae Govannen randir. I've been here not long myself, and I think.... it's mostly a good place.


Just watch out for dead people. :p :D That would be, almost everybody.

Well aren't you?!?!? :eek:

Welcome Ruoutorin to the downs! If you are dead( ;) ) enjoy you're death if you are alive then enjoy being among the dead! :D

~*Wilwa*~

P.S. Beleg if you would like to make a change/add something to you're post you can click on the edit button in the bottom right hand corner of that post, instead of making a whole new post. That way we don't take up room.

Encaitare 02-07-2005 02:51 PM

Welcome, Ruoutorin.

What game? I assure you, we can be quite book-based when we fancy it. :p

Beleg, everyone's dead here. Now, I know a little denial comes with it sometimes, but it's easier to just accept it and start settling into your barrow. ;)

No, as a thinking pile of bones, I prefer to assume you're just the undead. ;)

So welcome corpses. 'Ware the ants that will in all probability play pinochle on your nose. Hopefully though you'll pass the stage of decomposing corpses and become fully fledged wights winging their way towards the Straight Road.

Boromir88 02-07-2005 03:02 PM

Welcome to the downs Ruoutorin. I hope to see you around in future discussions. :)

I'm scared that if I ever get to the Straight Road I won't be able to have anymore fun and I hear Eru isn't looking for a jester anytime soon. I possibly thought about pulling a Saruman and having a career change, but that will take too long :p .

Gil-Galad 02-07-2005 05:10 PM

Aye, Welcome Ruoutorin...and don't forget to have fun! you are dead now, so death can't stop you!

Ainuosérë 02-07-2005 08:57 PM

Hello everyone! I found this forum kinda by accident. I was looking for an online course type thing that tought Quenya. I have always been facinated by the languages that Tolkien had made to go along with the world he created. While i was lookng i bumped into this place and found that I like it here. This is really good forum from what i saw. So hello everyone! Muffins for all!

Encaitare 02-07-2005 09:50 PM

Greetings, Ainu. :)

Ooh, muffins? Awesome. I'll save mine for breakfast tomorrow. ;)

Feanor of the Peredhil 02-08-2005 07:40 AM

Ainuosérë, I already had a donut, but I thank you anyhow, and welcome you. Anybody bearing gifts of food merits a good welcoming. Hope you like it here.

Fea

Thinlómien 02-08-2005 07:48 AM

Hahaha...
Welcome, everybody!

Gil-Galad 02-08-2005 08:08 AM

welcome indeed Ainuosérë, hope to see you among the downs!

wilwarin538 02-08-2005 04:05 PM

Welcome Ainuosérë!!! Enjoy the Downs, and enjoy your death!!! ;) :D :smokin:

Get out, you old Wight! Vanish in the sunlight!
Shrivel like the cold mist, like the winds go wailing,
Out into the barren lands far beyond the mountains!
Come never here again! Leave your barrow empty!
Lost and forgotten be, darker than the darkness,
Where gates stand for ever shut, till the world is mended.

yup, death by chocolate is always good!:D

lucky... mind was body in a wood chipper...

Nukapei 02-08-2005 09:41 PM

Ack, death by boredom! Kinda hard to do, I managed it! Welcome, Ainuosérë et al!

Ruoutorin 02-09-2005 11:02 AM

Thank you all for the warm (or shall I say cold, as in dead) welcome!!!! I hope to chat, debate, discuss, etc. with you all among the threads. Stay away from Mandos until we meet again (he may convince Iluvatar to send you back to the living and you all seem to enjoy death).

Oh, yeah, Mandos has petitioned Illuvatar a few times to take me back! Problem is, Illuvatar doesn't want me, either! :D Welcome to the Downs, Ruoutorin, and enjoy your death!
