Welcome
 
Just a general welcome to all. Eriathwen, Lilly, Gandalf, Himilsillion, SunniGadi, and Mithuialm, Welcome. Just look around I am sure you'll find something for you. Try your knowlege in a quiz thread, your imagination in a RPG thread, or just chat it up about the books, movies, or LOTR in general. Well have a good one.

Hey guys, I'm back. I don't know how many of you will remember me. Let's see.. What will help you remember? Erm, well I owned the Shire RPG, Hunt for the Dragon. Well, technically I co-owned it with dragoneyes, but she didn't show for most of it ^_^; I'm also quite crazy. Hmmm, don't kow if anyone has ever been the the Imladris forum, but I started the proboards version after the aimoo or whatever the heck the e-vile ad filled site killed too many people's computers.

Mithuial 10-20-2005 03:32 PM

Geez! Everyone is so friendly. Awesome! Yea, I was just reading over some really old, dweeby posts I wrote like sophomore year of high school. FUN! I don't know how I ever survived so long without the Downs. My friends and I used to RPG, my character was an elf named, you guessed it, Mithuial. Those were fun times. My friends and I used to have LotR banquets in which we had to remain in character and practice our Quenya and eat lembas and whatnot. I miss my old LotR obsession. I'm sure it would return if I reread the books for a fifth time. What's a thread you would recommend? Or what's your favorites?

Ignite the old flame! A little obsession is too much fun to let rot, even here, where we're dead. As for threads, if you've got quite a bit of time, reading over the Tol-in-Gaurhoth games is a hoot. Fordim Hedgethistle's poll threads are always neat for arguing, and Crazy Captions is always good for a debate. Also, alatar's recent Snow Angels thread is a zany look at Elven weight distribution.

And welcome back Elentari, as well. I remember you, or at least your name.

Regards,

Are you calling me odd, Lady Ka? ;)

The Goth Bat 10-28-2005 04:38 PM

Hrm, I understand I am suppossed to go here first. ^^;

Okay, hello all. The name's Goth Bat, and I'm pretty much a newcomer in the LoTR fandom since I finally could be bothered to rent them on DVD. Have to say I found them much more entertaining than the books (the singing started to bug me a after a couple of rounds), though it was rather annoying with everything that was left out. I immediately found myself swooning over Gríma and his Èowyn-obsession - just got a thing for slimey little pathetic guys who never gets the girl. I also for some reason found the orchs rather spiffy (squealed when I saw the girl orch), and the nazguls was just the epitome of coolness. *_*

Hope to have fun here, and learn some more about Tolkien and his universe.

Boromir88 10-28-2005 04:41 PM

Greetings and salutations Goth Bat, I hope you enjoy your time here. Also, I believe there's a Grima fan club here some where...believe it or not.

Glirdan 10-28-2005 10:12 PM

Welcome Goth Bat. Hope you have fun here in the Downs.

Gil-Galad 10-29-2005 12:14 AM

Rune Son of Bjarne 11-03-2005 04:32 PM

I can't remember you, but that is because I haven't been around that long.

Actually, I just wantet to tell you how thrilled I am that you have chosen to return, I expect I will find the downs even more intertaining with you around. :)

welcome Plastic_Panda and enjoy yourself

Boromir88 11-06-2005 02:37 PM

Greetings and Salutations Plastic_Panda. There are many activities you can find here at the downs, from the Chapter-by-Chapter book discussions, Scene-by-Scene movie discussions, if you want to get out of the "serious" and into the "mirth" perhaps Crazy Captions, or the Werewolf Games will suit you. Plus there's on going RPG's. Enjoy your stay. :)

Lhundulinwen 11-06-2005 03:15 PM

Its been a really long time. I have since started boarding school and found a whole new load of smart kids to convert to the joys of LOTR. Just thought I would stop bye and say 'howdy' to my favorite online haunt. Have a wonderful day everyone!

Glirdan 11-06-2005 06:27 PM

Welcome Panda. Enjoy your stay among the dead. And welcome back Lhundulinwen.

Celebuial 11-07-2005 06:11 PM

Welcome, welcome... No-one is too young to die here!!!!!... And especially not you... There are plenty of people younger than you wandering around...(well me for one)and You'll be quite suprised at how old(or indeed young) some of the 'best' posters are... Age no'longer seems to matter when everyone is dead!

I'm sure you'll fit right in Baranithil :D

Plastic_Panda 11-07-2005 06:26 PM

Your public profile puts you at 19????? Wouldn't that be 6 years? Or are we reffering to mental age and not actual age? I'm all confused! Oh well. You're dead now... so it doesn't matter... I guess you can be whatever age you want to be...oh and concering this

you're not a wight yet... the classification of how dead you are changes as you make more posts and with time(I think)... Eventually I think you get to make up your own.
