English is my native tongue. I also speak Greek, Russian, Italian, Spanish and some German. I write in full sentences. I am not a lurker. I am a writer, of sorts, and not new to the InfoPop software. I own a BB myself (The Magickal Realm) and have over 8000 posts there. My character here is a fierce Elf known and Lilebrian Longbow. I am in the Rohan RPG "Kidnapped!". I look forward to my stay here.

Welcome to the downs Aragorn_Protector, Nieninque, Nilfalathiel, I Love Orli Bloom, and Lilebria. Post well.

A note of caution to I Love Orli Bloom: Though most people here (esp girls) like Orlando Bloom, He has already been discused to peces and many people enjoy talking about other things now. Some threads that have already been started about him are:here here, here, here,I suggest that you check these out before starting your own threads.

Heloo everyone, new and not. I myself am not the newest person (as you can see) but neither am I the eldest, I seem to be having a competition with my self to see how much time I can spend on the computer, the piano just doesn't seem so interesting any more [img]smilies/rolleyes.gif[/img]. If you're bored pop into middle-earth mayhem or an RPG, or you could PM (private message) me, I always welcome those *looks round hopefully* [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img].

At last, I found it! I must be exhausted from Christmas.
Okay, been a reader since age 14 back in '69. I have a thing for Boromir, though I love all of them. My test says I'm most like Sam, whom I adore, but much like Merry and Pippin, and with some of the adventures I've had, I'll not argue with that. When I read the books I get a feeling much like home-sickness. These stories have been my constant and close friends since I was just out of childhood. I think PJ's cast was perfect. When I first saw the movie trailer I knew who each of them were. I saw TTT, will see it again, and not bother buying the DVD 'til the extended version comes out. Now I have to wait almost a year to see RotK, and I'm going to explode if it doesn't hurry up.
Nice to meet you all. Cool place.

Thumbs up

Hello, my name is Barodir (a fusion of the names Boromir and Aragorn with -dir added to the end to keep it from sounding like an accented version of Boromir).
Good to be here. I'm about halfway through Return of the King and have seen the all the movies so far (even the animated "Hobbit") exept for the animated LOTR, but I probably don't wanna see that, do I? [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

Welcome everyone to the Downs.

If you enjoy RPGs, you may want to visit The Shire and its Green Dragon Inn. Here, you can try out a character of your own making, and practice your writing skills. We'll also let you know when new RPGs become available that are looking for good folk to join them.

Cami, Assistant Innkeeper in the Green Dragon
