You think that, phantom? I'll join you, though I don't have quite as sinister a reputation.... I can just warn them about how horrible their deaths will be.....

Welcome back, linna!

Gil-Galad -- Wait! I think I get it! No, that's just new age music... and I'm still oblivious.

Yes, newbies, first you shall unwittingly click on a link that says "Canonicity," upon which your brains shall immediately be melted.

Next, you shall be tempted to join an RPG. Pursue at your own risk.

And then, you shall get involved in a heated debate over some trivial point in LotR, only to realize that no one is ever going to agree, no matter how often you tell them that of course Balrogs don't have wings...

Someday, you may even get a personal title... and that's when you know that your soul belongs to the Barrow Downs.

Heh... don't mind me. Enjoy your slow, slow demises.

I think I'd like to make a special mention to all members who are now joining in the futuristic year of 2005. This year will be on your prophile for the rest of your Downs-related vitural deaths so be proud. Also, happy New Year to all.

I'd also like to make another special welcome back to everyone who was away over the holidays or longer. If you or your family are very conventional about whatever holiday you celebrate, then all us you should know how difficult it is to receive internet time. So like I said, and I'm including myself in here because I couldn't find a piece of technology more advanced than a toaster over for the last two weeks, Welcome to the New Year of the Downs, may it be productive.

Welcome, ancalemagill! Your stay here at the 'Downs should be enjoyable... That is, if you don't run into the phantom or cross The Barrow-Wight. (Mr. Barrow-Wight being the head dictator--um, I mean monarch--you don't want to get on his bad side....) And some of us coughcoughBoromir88andGil-Galadcoughcough have petty personal squabbles.... So, if you don't understand it, it's probably best not to.

All hail Comrade Wight who overthrew the monarch of the evil Queen of the white-backrounded forums.

Hi ancalemagill, out of curiousity, do you know what your name means? There's a good general question if we get short on Newbies to shower with attention.

If you happen to have an Elven name, either one you made up, were named, or got off the Name generator, do you know what it means?

Mine means Maiden of the Holy Blood. I had no idea when I chose it, but you know, I kind of like it.
