Well, for me it's one book from him once in a while... but I haven't read any from him for quite some time... anyway, you may safely leave him behind. This is a Tolkien forum!

And the use of the ampersand, tis merely a habit (nice attention to detail, however). Will it bother you or others here, since there are bound to be grammatists & lovers of fluid & properly written prose here? (not that there's anything wrong w/that)

Oh, it's fine. I think people get used to it, if nothing else. (Although, yes, to be honest, I don't like it

What a disgrace to the written language! - But hey, really

As long as the text remains readable... We are here to discuss, the form is not that horribly important.)

I would consider smileys much worse.

Hello my dear Barrowdowners!

I'm not a newcomer or a novice but I figured this would be the best place to announce my return! It's been about 2.5 years since I've been on here, I've been crazy busy with life and such. I'm now 18 years old and in University and somehow that's managed to give me more free time

. I was clearing out my old computer the other day and found some pictures and posts I had saved from here and decided to hop on and take a look at what's been going on, and found myself being pulled right back and reminded of why I was a member here for so long. Glad to see werewolf games are still going on, though they've changed alot, might consider signing up for one sometime! And also most of the people who I used to enjoy talking with are still around, which is great to see!!!

So anyway, I've got alot of free time over the next few months and so I've decided to come back! Surprise!!!

You'll probably see me pop up here and there randomly trying to get a feel for everything again. Hopefully I have just as much fun with everyone now as I did 2 and a half years ago!

Welcome back Wilwarin, it's nice to see that people like being dead!

Also, a belated welcome to Tillion the Wayward; you look like you will bring some substance with you.

Have fun in the land of the dead!
