Hello, Lucy! Enjoy being dead!

Boro, do you think you could use your imagination and come up with a different greeting, instead of using the same one? Not that I have any room to talk....

Lolidir · 01-08-2005, 11:28 PM

hey every one,

i must say i am new to the whole forum thing, but i am not new to the LOTR world so to speak. i have read the books once but a lot of people dont believe me bc i can recall a lot of information and sometimes its a lot of pointless information that only a fanatic would know. know i dont want to bost here bc i know that prolly everyone here know more than i do, mainly bc i have read anything other than the triogy and the hobbit. i do plan on it, but as some others i am also in school. i am a junior in highschool.

heres an interesting story. i got in trouble in english class my freshman year for not paying attention. any one know what i was doing? i was reading TTT. and on top of that when the teacher took the book away the book mark fell out and i said "thanks for loosing my place" in a not so nice tone. well thats just how dedicated i am i guess. i put my own safety on the line for LOTR. paving the way for all those new comers out there i guess.

well i have prolly bored half of you to sleep and the other half have prolly left so will say adios for the time being and i hope to hear from some of you in the future wether it be an IM or PM or maybe a reply to something i wrote. hope to read you soon.

elronds_daughter · 01-09-2005, 05:29 PM

Welcome to the 'Downs, Lolidir! 'Dedicated', you say, eh? I prefer to name it 'obsession'. Ah, well. Enjoy your death!

Encaitare · 01-09-2005, 09:11 PM

Hello, Lolidir. Do enjoy your death... always room for one more in the barrow.

the phantom · 01-09-2005, 09:19 PM

Morquen · 01-14-2005, 07:40 PM

hey! how do you do your location of death?

**The Saucepan Man** · 01-14-2005, 07:56 PM

Welcome to the Downs, Morquen.

Unlike a Chat Room, it often takes a while for someone to respond to your post in a Discussion Forum, so you may need to wait a little bit. In the meantime, it's worth reading a few of the threads here to get a feel for the place - and the forum FAQs, if you haven't already.

Hello, newbies. If you are familiar with Lord of the Rings (the book, not the movie), check out our Chapter-by-Chapter discussions. We start a new chapter every week.

Hey, there's your list right there, Gil- that blank sheet of paper on the table there.

Encaitare · 03-16-2005, 02:32 PM

Hi, Elonve!

Well, if we're promoting threads I may as well promote mine. If any of you newcomers are into music, do feel free to check out the Track-by-Track thread. Thither we discuss the LotR soundtrack.... sadly we're a bit short on participants...

Gwydion · 06-12-2005, 11:27 AM

What's up! I'm new to the site and the title said to introduce yourself so here I am. I've been a Tolkein fan ever since I read the Hobbit in third grade. I own all three books and I have The Fellowship of the Ring 2nd edition. One of my friends told me about this site so here I am. I loved all three movies and I think that Peter Jackson did the best anybody could do with The Lord of the Rings, visually that is, so don't say otherwise. I'm a rising junior and I like sharks.

THE Ka · 06-12-2005, 12:42 PM

Welcome Gwydion, hope your time with us is memorable, full of laughs and some greatly witty moments!
