I agree with you both, although some people tend to be nicer than others. I always think of the bigger picture this way-

Here, finally, is my list (or at least what I can do at the moment): Sophia the Thunder Mister- so much can be said about our friendly neighborhood Mistress of Thunder...you are a smart, funny, and kind young woman who has a bright future. One day, I hope I can write as well as you do. mark12_30-thank you for being such an honest, caring person and for all the work you have done to keep us on our toes and on our way to Rivendell. Raefindel-you are a wonderful and kind person who is full of beauty. Joy-what a strong, young woman. You have affected my life without ever having met you. God bless you. Alatáriël -you have the most delightful posts on the Walk to Rivendell. I always look forward to reading them. Beren87-you've been my biggest competitor in the quote/quiz rooms (although I've been scarce lately). Thanks for the sport. [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img] The Saucepan Man-all I have to do is think of you and I smile. You are funny and kind...a real asset to the Downs. Your Words in Words never cease to amaze me. I know there are more but this is all I can do for now.

There have been several efforts here to keep this thread on topic, and I wish to commend those Downers here for their efforts.
At the same time, I think this thread suggests something about style and decorum on the Downs. At the Downs, the main standard is discussion, usually although not necessarily, extended discussion, rather than personal "How's the weather?" "How are you?" "Wow,you're great" one liners. One liners that are welcomed, however, tend to provide a particularly witty response or comment. Perhaps, if Downers really appreciate comments made here about them, they could PM the person involved rather than make a one line thank you post. Short posts tend to encourage further short posts. Ideally, threads at the Downs, even when they provide personal discussion as in this forum, provide enjoyment not only for reading but for rereading. They are not junk food, but substantial nutrition which provides food for sustainable thought. This is the virtue and benefit of discussion over chat which the Barrow Wight mentioned in a recent thread. Particularly when bandwidth issues and costs are so important, it would perhaps be beneficial to ask oneself when one posts, is this comment worthy of being reread down the road, much later? That is, is my post of temporary, ephemeral interest, or does it provide information and comment that will be relevant and meaningful to others three or six or thirty-six months from now? Respectfully, Bethberry [ May 18, 2003: Message edited by: Bêthberry ]

What do you like about people?
This site would be just….dull…..without Squatter of Amon Rudh’s spectacular writing skills, Nil and GaladrieloftheOlden’s bubbliness, Pio’s RPG’s, The Saucepan Man’s clanging and rattling, Esteyln’s ‘squwerl’ jokes, Helka’s lunacy, and the Do the Wave! avatars! I can name lots more people that I like and admire. Wow, you guys show such character! Sophia the Thunder Mistress Carlas Elentari Greenleaf Lyra Greenleaf Amanaduial the Archer The Phantom Lossentilien Trippo the Hippo (now what does a HIPPO have to do with LOTR???!! Don’t worry, everybody loves you. [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img] The Barrow Wight *grins mischievously* Anything but Arwen MLD-Grounds-Keeper-Willie And I’m not just picking out names! I really mean it, guys. Sincerely, you’re great. [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

Please read:
GaladrieloftheOlden: lol, I think you should either keep Galadriel or not keep Galadriel. Helpful, eh? Helkahothion: Shut up Galadriel of the olden. You might be old, but you don't have the right to confuse that poor little girl. So stay away or feel my wrath! GaladrieloftheOlden: BUAHAHA, Olden, not Older. I'm a junior high kid! So... Nil's a few years older than me. Helkahothion: Be quite, or I will send the pants attacking monkey of doom towards you. GaladrieloftheOlden: Oh, but I have the power of the dancing cell phone! It may return at any moment to assist me in my task! By the way, and on topic, I still crack up every time I see Chicken GaladrieloftheOlden: Helkahothion likes Niluial, Helkahothion likes Niluial... oh, poor Don I like whoever has the penguin one that I wanted's avatar. Helkahothion: Helkahothion likes Niluial, Helkahothion likes Niluial Yes so? I am very flattered [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img].. jokes.. but this was just to show you why I love these two people so much!!! GladarieloftheOlden and of course Helky!!!! They just lighten up the forum and often get topics closed ( [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img])!! But they are just the best!!!!

Awww, thanks Tarien. I didn't think I'd made much of an impression on anybody apart form maybe Elentari, Aman and Nil. I'm honoured. *tear* Not to mention my ego is now slightly bigger.
I heard something about Helka being banned for posting something that was innapropriate. Not sure how true it is or anything though. |

You where right Lossentillien. May it serve as a lesson to you all. I got lucky with a temporary ban. Mithadan saved my hide and I am very gratefull for that. So don't any of you go telling bad things about Mithadan, or I will set the pants attacking monkey of doom upon you're newbie butt.
Mithadan: My favorite moderator and lifesaver. I see him as my guardianangel(as stated below in Dutch [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]) and a very forgiving person. I will make you're trouble at Mod Gorthad worth while. Lossentillien: I totaly forgot you. And you deserve a bigger ego than you have now. You have been popping up at most of the forums I have been and you're posts (not always on topic but no body has a clean record) have always been a charm to read. [edit]Thanks Aman. Always the helpfull sweety that you are. I wish I could help people, but people never seem to eed my assistence [img]smilies/frown.gif[/img][/edit] [ May 19, 2003: Message edited by: Helkahothion ] |

Here, here Elentari!
I feel I should extend my earlier list to all those who played alongside myself in Cirith Ungol. As Elentari, it were my first rpg and I was made to feel very welcome as a latecomer to the game. (So much so infact, my character is back in the Green dragon Inn and has asked of some members). |

I have loads to say, as Im sure everyone else does but these are the special ones:
B-W- Well thats obvious. Pio- For being the kindest mod I know (I know all the others are great, but Pio I feel I know the most) Maika- She is an amazing writer, and a really compassionate person. Himaran- For starting up my first RPG,which was incredible. *Varda*- I really cant wait for our RPG togather. Everyone from the Road to Erebor RPG- It was a truley amazing experience. ElentariGreenleaf and Lossie - For Imladris, I will be back! [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

Niluial- for being so fun to joke with!
Sophia- for spending about 2 hours (in the middle of the night) on AIM chatting with me, creating a conversation which, when I put it into word just out of interest as to how long it really was, turned out to be 16 pages and about to spill onto the 17th... and that's without spacing between lines [img]smilies/eek.gif[/img] Legolas- for being great at his new 'job'! ~Menelien

You'd better be back Arien!! Same for Nil. Or else I may have to ask Helka for a lone of his monkeys. [img]smilies/tongue.gif[/img]
I'm not sure that I mentioned the BW, now that I think about it. I'm too lazy to check through all those pages, so I'll just say it again- The BW, although at times fearsome, is amazing. We all owe him so much. Maybe we should start a thanks topic for him and the mods. (Is this on topic enough? I'm trying, I really am) |
05-20-2003, 04:35 PM | #317 |

I think there are some already in existence.
I have an even stronger feeling that the BW would probably appreciate us using less bandwidth more than he would appreciate us singing his praises and making the BDs more expensive. That's my conclusion from his posts, anyway. ~ Elentari II P.S. Having now deleted several of my off-topic posts on this thread, please keep in mind that some of the posts of others will now indicate that the posters have gone crazier than usual. They haven't.
