Hey there. Interesting place.

Welcome, Steven!
Hope you enjoy your stay here.

Aye, welcome Steven

Ah The BarrowDowns , I am back after a year of wandering in the wilderness, and I hope this place has remained unchanged . :D

Welcome back, ruts! I know what it feels like to have been away a long time....I myself have only recently come back to 'Downage. Again, may I be the first to offer you a very hearty welcome back!

Home Again, Home Again...
 

Well, it has been far too long, and my old name expired.

So, I'm Moksha, the reincarnation of Saraphim.

Life came up and abruptly smacked me 'round with a flaming trout, and rendered it difficult for me to spend any quality time here. But, I missed the ol' Downs terribly...and now here I am...

So, hi, everyone!

Poor Saraphim... I mean Moksha. Well, at least your back, right? :D ;)

Yes, and it is good to be back...^_^...thanks.

Welcome back, Mokshaphim! Would you believe that your new moniker forcibly reminds me of Aldous Huxley's Island?

PS: welcome back and welcome to everyone else that I just forgot.

Welcome back...uh... M. Saraphim... bah all the other ones were used...

Hi, Everyone! I'm Suncrafter.
 

Hi, Everyone! I'm Suncrafter.

I came across this forum while doing research for my website about Orcs.

Yesterday I had posted a thread about "45 Things that Orcs never say." But it was removed as spam. Evidently it is OK to post links in your signature at the bottom but not OK to post links in the body of the post. That's what I get for not reading the rules. I'll try re-posting "45 Things that Orcs never say" when I find time.

Welcome, suncrafter!

Greetings from the Blue Mountains. Just visiting here for the first time and checking out the locals... ;)

Nice place you have here.

Nogrod

Welcome to our humble abode Suncrafter and Nogrod. Would you care for a tour?

welcome Nogrod and suncrafter, and welcome back ruts

Nice to see you back ruts!

Goodness, I haven't stopped in here in a while... so a big welcome to all new members! :)

Greetings

New Tolkien fan here ... I have been reading this site for some time and decided it would be time to register. Looking forward to having fun :).

Nice to have you here among the dead, Raynor.

I hope to see you in the Quiz Room soon.

With some five or six days "seniority" over you ;) , I must say, this is a most welcoming community.

...and addictive.

Try to hold your horses, or you'll lose your life outside the computer & your mind - or at least you may start neglecting your duties, as has happened to me... at least for the time being.

Have fun!

Raynor, as in Jim Raynor?
 

welcome and enjoy yourself Raynor

Welcome Raynor to your death. I hope you enjoy your coffin full of nails as well as the fresh meat. I must also add that all the neighbours are friendly and won't bite...hard. :D :rolleyes: ;)

Well, these have to be the creepiest welcomes I ever received :D

Don't worry Raynor, it means we like you!

Welcome to all those I've missed recently!

Welcome Nogrod and Raynor!
May you enjoy yourselves and become active posters!

I don't know why, but I've picked up a bad habit of posting creepy welcomes to new members. I'm glad you liked it!! Again, welcome!! :D

Don't worry Raynor, you're grave isn't as bad as mine. Atleast, you're not next to Gil-galad...oops did I say that out loud. :p

Welcome and enjoy your stay.

oh hardy har har Boro, don't hate the player, hate the game

Hello, I'm JennyHallu, or just Jenny, or Hallu, or the Mass Hallucination (but that's really more of a title than a name.) I am a long-time Tolkien fan, but I admit I may be a little rusty. Doesn't help that I'm recently married (yay!) and moved away from home and my only copy of the trilogy is technically my parents' (boo!)

welcome Jenny Hallu and enjoy yourself here at downs, i hear the buffet is to die for, literally.

I'm afraid I'm feeling a bit lively for my new position...

for now... :smokin:

Well, You'll just have to live with that... :p

Wellcome from another newbie! This is a warm community. But don't forget your other life...

Hello
 

Welcome everyone! Hope you enjoy yourselves here in the Downs. :D I'll be your hostess for this evening, please come this way....

That's because you're newly deceased :) Animated skeleton stage must be pretty lively too, but than you become solemn ghost by and by :D

Welcome everyone!

Woo-hoo! Animated skeleton! How nifty is that! :D

*polishes bones and dances around singing*

The toe bone's connected to the FOOT bone,
the foot bone's connected to the HEEL bone...(etc. etc. etc.)

Now whom shall I haunt?? :p

OOO!!! Pick me!! Pick me!!! I want to be haunted!! :D Welcome Jenny!! Enjoy the stay!!

Come on Glirdan! Do you really want to be hauntet by a pile o bones? Is it not a bit silly?

Your welcome to haunt me when you have become a wight Jenny. (Wich you will become rather fast if you spend some time in the Quiz Room! ;) )

Oh come Rune, I like bones. It signifies, for me anyway, that the fresh meat is becoming aquainted with the rest of us here dead people. :p ;)

Bones make neat music...*tunes ribs* Look! I'm a Glockenspiel! (sp?)

Since skellingtons (gee, it's been too long since I read that book...long enough I can't remember which one it is...David Copperfield maybe?) make Rune nervous, I will cheerfully haunt Glirdan until I can muster up a more compelling phantasm.
