Welcome to The Barrow Downs forum Silvernight. This forum is a friendly place, and I wish their kindness upon you, and you can hope for mine as well.

Have fun here. I hope you can get a better idea of RPing than I can. Good luck!

Tolkien

Hi, all!

I have just registered in the BD, although I have been browsing through its threads for quite some time. Besides, I have met some of the BD's members elsewhere and I am now glad we will be able to possibly meet here as well.

I have to say that I am strongly impressed by the knowledge and the in-depth-understanding of Tolkien and his works that I find here!
I have been studying Tolkien for almost three years now but I still consider myself just a student, and as such I have a lot of questions, that, I hope, I shall be able to find the answers to here. So ... bear with me!
For ... sometimes I'm just being provocative, hoping that to look upon an issue from the "opposite corner", helps for the better understanding.

Happy to meet you all!

Lhunithiliel
(...which name I once got through the BD name generator... )

Pleased to have you here at the downs Lhunithiliel. No matter how long one studies Tolkien, there is always more to find out, that's what I like about it . I hope to see some of your questions soon .

Thank you kindly, Boromir88 (so many Boromirs! )

I shall certainly soon find some courage to post a question or two of mine.

A question... though I appologize if this is not the place to ask:
How to change the "sub-name" under my forum-name? This "newly deceased" ... hmmm... doesn't appeal to me.

Welcome to The Barrow Downs. That post of the FAQs actually answered my question of yours, newcomer. So, we are being reincarnated so to speak?

(I apologize for calling you "newcomer", but that name of yours is a bit hard to spell and, call me lazy, but I hate looking back and forth.)

Nonetheless, welcome.

White Tree Welcome and Greetings to all!!!

Greetings friends! It seems that it has been forever since I last haunted the BD. I can not believe that I stayed away for so long. The thing that I really love about the BD is that even though I seem to be perpetually ignorant to all things Tolkien( i.e. no matter how much I learn, I have still only scratched the surface of Tolkiens depth and detail), no body treats me like a fool for not knowing what seems toi be common knowledge. Y'all are great! Namarië
