I guess I've been dead long enough to make my first welcome post here. Welcome, both Panda and Baran. You see, you already have nicknames! It's just because I'm so lazy.
A little comment on the "ranking" system. You'll become a higher rank of dead (for example wight) when you reach a certain number of posts, but not after a certain time like Celebuial said (sorry to correct you). And it is true that age does not matter. Many great posters are adults with long experiance while others read they're first Tolkien book not long ago. Everybody is welcome and can have fun here! I'll be glad to see you on the ongoing Silmarillion Survivor thread. We need some more audience to vote! Guess that's all... See you around!

 One thing that would make the descent into the land of the dead easier is a list of nicknames. In the beginning it's hard to keep track of all people and nicks down here. I know I was confused. To all new: this isn't a good post. Keep on topic. Sorry for setting such a bad example. Hope everybody enjoys their death!

But, seriously now, off topic is bad, the mods if they notice it will try to steer the thread back in the direction it's supposed to be, but if it continues there are serious consequences.

A shrubbery, eh?
With thorns, no doubt!

Well it could have thorns, but usually it is not demanded as long as it is a nice and neat shrubbery. . . But back on topic: Hey Rose I see you have allready postet in the Green Dragon; I hope I will soon meet you in the Quiz Room.
Together we are going to have lot's of fun, if you are game.

Our handy "Barrow-meeter" Boromir88 has suggested some of the interesting forums and games here, but you should also, before you post more, find the other barometer of taste and style here. Please read carefully Estelyn Telcontar's "Guidelines for Forum Posting". Estelyn is the Moderator for the Books, Movies and Newbies forums and so she knows a thing or two of helpful hints for the newly dead, no matter what age they claim to be. She also guides the Chapter by Chapter discussion in the Books forum. So, in other words, she's someone who knows her way around and so is a great person to ask for advice. And if learning from authority isn't your cup of tea, you can read over many of the threads and posts here to see the kind of discussion which the forum generates. Chatspeak and chatty posts are typically rare and not well received--people just don't like the kind of thoughtlessness which those styles demonstrate. Such sloppiness also tends to limit the kind of wit and humour which good writing makes possible --and this place is definitely about wit and humour. There's only so many times one can overuse an ! before it becomes boringly predictable, after all. And welcome also to Baranithil and Rose.

Welcome, Rose.
I can really recommend the werewolf games to every newbie (and not-so-newbie, for that matter), though I've only been playing in one game this far.
