Well, actually, I have things in common with almost any post above mine

I stumbled on the Downs when googling "boromir and faramir's dream". It came up with the thread about that dream - and of course I couldn't resist to post my opinion there too!

I love the Barrow-Downs first and foremost because it is a Tolkien site, and I can discuss my favourite books here in humour and seriousness!

Same here. First of all, because this is the only place where I can discuss Tolkien. I don't have a lot of friends in RL who are even remotely interested, and those who are familiar with Tolkien are bored to death about my discussions.
Also, most of my friends are too serious, in the sense that they take jokes literally. Here I can make fun of almost anything, and others understand that I don't really mean it.
(Yeah, guys, you're
almost the only ones who are actually listening to me!

I love the way that your fellow BDers welcome you with open arms, and you can make your home here, with little to no problems! I've been here for a little more than a year, and it still feels like it was yesterday that I joined!

Too true! For me the feeling is the opposite, though - I've only been here for 4 months, but I became so attached to the BD it feels like I've been here for ages!
So thank you all fellow Downers for just being here, and for letting me be with you!
