When I wrote this I didn't actually think of those Orli-lovers. And that is a positive sign that this type of posters has eventually died out. Of course, if you favour an actor, you should be able to share your views on him, but reading "oh, I love Orli [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img] [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img] [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img] . he's so handsome!!!!!!! What was the guy he played supposed to be?" for the 100th time can be rather annoying.
Then there are of course those members who have seen the movies and were so impressed that they wanted to know more. One friend of mine who has not read a book in his whole life has actually started to read LotR, and that says sth.
I actually agree with your last message, Eruanna. I just wanted to tell what type of members Gwaihir was referring to.
And, we are of course no elite group. New members are important, and, as I said before, one can't know everything and everybody makes mistakes.
And I'm terribly sorry for not going into detail that much, but I have to go now. I'll write more tomorrow.
