Hey, to be fair, I don't think that MLD meant to be rude. He was just making the point that this forum is for discussions of Tolkien-related matters, rather than articles, and suggesting that Anndvasawen start up a discussion to keep the thread going. Nothing wrong in that. The "enjoy being dead" point has been addressed (we are all dead here), and he finished his post with a [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img] , which is generally meant as a friendly gesture.

So let's not be too harsh on MLD.

Welcome to the Downs, Anndvasawen. I suggest that you look through a few threads to get the feel of the place. We are a friendly bunch really and the mods here do an exceptionally good job. Enjoy your time here, and have fun. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]
