....Um, actually, if you don't think that you can write book style posts, be afraid of the Books section, because someone'll rate your posts down... stick to Middle-earth Mirth... *giggles* That's my haunt... so... much... fun. Also, don't feel intiminated by the RPG section's high standards... it's really quite easy, you know. (Plus, when I first started, I knew NOTHING about RPing... Barrow-downs is a great place to learn how to role play!). Welcome all the new people! May the Force be with you... or, maybe, may the RING be with you... snrk.

But don't be too afraid to post... most of us don't bite, and our bark isn't that bad either... it's the really REALLY oldbe's that you'll have to worry about... the one's who think that there's no need for mods, because they know everything... sigh.

Hey Im wilwarin538,
I`m obviously completely obsessed with LOTR(books and movies). I saw the movies then read the books, LOTR then the Hobbit and Ill be reading the sil soon. The movies were great but I enjoyed the books better, mostly cause the movies cut out alot of good stuff, like Tom Bombadil for instance. So anyway, Im happy to be able to discuss my opinions with you guys.

Alrighty then..

My name is Angalot Wen, and here's the story of how I ended up here:

I read and fell in love with the LotR in the year of 2001. I was completely obsessed with it, and at that point I didn't even know that they were making movies! So when I found out, I went mad and died out of happiness. Since then I've been hanging around here, but I've never taken the time to register until now.

Now i'm learning how to speak and write the noble tounge of quenya. (There's a very useful course at Ardalambion)

Ohh! BTW: Guess where i'm from! (Hint: Look at the location-thingy to the left)

Child of the 7th Age is a guest of Tom Bombadil.
Angalot Wen, Wilwarin, and other recent arrivals,

Please feel free to come to the Shire and introduce yourself in character in the Green Dragon Inn! Once you've done that, we'll be glad to let you know about new RPGs.

Again, welcome to the Downs!

Hello Everyone!


I have been meaning to join the forum for some time now. Better late than never I suppose. Some of you may know me from the Barrowdowns chat room, I spend way too much time there! lol! Perhaps this forum will provide me a more productive outlet for my spare time.

I have loved the world of J.R.R. Tolkien since before I could read. My father introduced me to the Hobbit as a bedtime story. The imagery and wonder the stories imparted are with me today. And in my minds eye Middle-Earth is still viewed with the color and clarity of a child's imagination.

I joined in hopes of finding like-hearted folks, who share Tolkien's love of beauty, and nature, and living things. I have a feeling I won't be disapointed.

Sting Thank you, one and all!

Yes, yes, it's good to be dead again. I found my old member name: Tirned Tinnu.
I'm just waiting for the admins to reply to my plaintive email about resurrecting and rekilling?! my old member name. I had registered at work, and that was a big mistake...not remembering my old password is another! Oh, well. All comes to those who wait.
As for cobwebs, I've none, having been involved with another forum for quite a while. Let my bones rot profitably here for a while, i say. With the slowdowns of conversation on other sites, I'm finding my daily post needs are unfulfulled!
Must... talk...more...Tolkien!
