Tolkien It's been sooo long....

Hello! Wow! I haven't been to The Barrow-Downs since, hmmm....January 2002 or thereabouts. It's been a long, long time. Man, I really missed hanging around with my fellow Lord of the Rings nerd pals. I actually here due to this class I'm taking Eng 160: Extreme Fictions, in which we are reading Harry Potter fan fiction. I remembered when I used to write LotR fan fiction, and it made me REALLY want to read some good ol' LotR fanfic. It's good to see that The Barrow Downs has maintained its caliber of quality. I've never submitted anything here, but I may...someday. Anyway, it's nice to be back.

1420! Welcome

Just a general welcome to all. Eriathwen, Lilly, Gandalf, Himilsillion, SunniGadi, and Mithuialm, Welcome. Just look around I am sure you'll find something for you. Try your knowlege in a quiz thread, your imagination in a RPG thread, or just chat it up about the books, movies, or LOTR in general. Well have a good one.

Hey guys, I'm back. I don't know how many of you will remember me. Let's see.. What will help you remember? Erm, well I owned the Shire RPG, Hunt for the Dragon. Well, technically I co-owned it with dragoneyes, but she didn't show for most of it ^_^; I'm also quite crazy. Hmmm, don't kow if anyone has ever been the the Imladris forum, but I started the proboards version after the aimoo or whatever the heck the e-vile ad filled site killed too many people's computers.

Geez! Everyone is so friendly. Awesome! Yea, I was just reading over some really old, dweeby posts I wrote like sophomore year of high school. FUN! I don't know how I ever survived so long without the Downs. My friends and I used to RPG, my character was an elf named, you guessed it, Mithuial. Those were fun times. My friends and I used to have LotR banquets in which we had to remain in character and practice our Quenya and eat lembas and whatnot. I miss my old LotR obsession. I'm sure it would return if I reread the books for a fifth time. What's a thread you would recommend? Or what's your favorites?
