Welcome, Rune!

Boromir88 · 09-14-2005, 07:41 PM

Hey Rune, welcome and may you find peace and prosper.

I happen to be by some of the nosiest people on the Downs, and can never get any peace. I hope you're a lot luckier.

Márcolië Lamen · 09-14-2005, 09:23 PM

Hola all. I'm obviously a new member here. Shelob has been telling me to join for a while now (and at least two other people were telling her to make me join) and I was extremely bored now so decided to actually listen join. Well after spending an hour of trying to come up with a name because I wanted it both Tolkien and turtle related...

Feanor of the Peredhil · 09-14-2005, 09:53 PM

Let me be the first to welcome you, my dear ALT-coded Marcolie Lamen. As an un-official greeter, I know that I should either copy and paste or at least make an attempt at your diacritics... but it's been one of those days. è,ë,å... they just hold no allure at the moment.

But new members will be ecstatic to learn that the 'Downs is great stress relief for days like mine! Welcome. Don't forget to wander aimlessly and find neat stuff.

♥Fea

Encaitare · 09-14-2005, 09:58 PM

Shelob sure is a good recruiter! Welcome to the Downs, Márcolië.

THE Ka · 09-14-2005, 10:36 PM

Welcome dear Márcolië Lamen!

I hope you find all your needs to fight the battle against ennui here dear, for this forum has proven to do just this many times and again. Like many have said before, feel free to wonder about and please... Please post a thread, no matter how obsurdly Tolkien it is. These are places made for such sustenance where we congrigate to uplift our senses of true Tolkien and MiddleEarth.

Enjoy your stay and have a wonderful time.

Boromir88 · 09-15-2005, 04:48 AM

Bonjour marcolie, and I concur with what Fea said.

I used the Bonjour, because marcolie just sounds like it should be said with a French accent. Or is it just me?

Glirdan · 09-15-2005, 02:22 PM

Welcome Marcolië to the Down's. Enjoy your stay among the living dead.

Well, thanks all for greeting me oh so kindly. And i have another question. Like, under my name to your left,... THERE IT IS!!! It says that i am "newly deceaced?" What the Mordor does that mean?

-Thankx

Gil-Galad · 09-15-2005, 06:34 PM

THE Ka · 09-15-2005, 07:15 PM

Or, as Mr. Galad has nicely begun with, if you continue, you have the chance of being offered to create your own name... Warning though, it takes much mental power and stress to reach this goal, but the rewards are cute sounding...

Help? *smiles sheepishly*

Kath · 09-18-2005, 03:29 PM

Well Ala/Mrs King of the Dead to begin with I would suggest reading the FAQ's thread which is around this place somewhere. Then just wander around the Downs for a bit to get used everything. And if you need any help feel free to PM somebody, everyone here is very helpful!

Enjoy the Downs!

Rune Son of Bjarne · 09-18-2005, 03:43 PM

Hi Ala/Mrs King of the Dead . . .

Boromir88 · 09-18-2005, 05:06 PM

Greetings Mrs. King of the Dead, enjoy your time here.

Glirdan · 09-18-2005, 05:25 PM

Welcome Ala/Mrs. King of the Dead. Hope your death was gruesome or funny. I tripped over a cabbage and fell in a hole. How did you die??? OH! And if you have a sense of humour, go take a look at the Middle-Earth Mirth threads. They're a ton of fun for everyone. Wow. That ryhmed!!!

Sharpis Corbis · 09-18-2005, 05:36 PM

Um, I'm not new, but I haven't posted in a good five months, so I thought I'd just say....I'm back.

Glirdan · 09-18-2005, 05:39 PM

Welcome back from your long absence Sharpis. Hope you continue to enjoy being among the dead.

Gil-Galad · 09-18-2005, 06:51 PM

Welcome back Sharpis, and welcome to you Mrs King of the Dead, does that mean your taken and i should back off all my charming ways?

WaynetheGoblin · 09-18-2005, 07:26 PM

Encaitare · 09-19-2005, 01:30 PM

Welcome, Ala, and welcome back, Sharpis!

09-19-2005, 02:20 PM

I'm new here and I love the lotrs books and movies.

Anywho, I need some help, If anyone has the Houghton Mifflin version of the Fellowship of the ring, on page 82 could anyone find me an example of an Elvish aphorism?

Boromir88 · 09-19-2005, 03:18 PM

Welcome back Sharpis

Turgon Philip Noldor · 09-20-2005, 02:23 AM

Hey, welcome everybody (who I haven't wlcomed yet)!! I get on every once in a while, and I usually don't list everybody I haven't welcomed yet. So don't be offended or anything. Have fun on the Downs forum site, and try not to get too addicted!

- Turgon-

(P. S: I just noticed that there are some "Icons" that I haven't seen before. How often does the Downs get or change features like the Icons?)

That happens very rarely - most of the icons were created by The Barrow-Wight in the early days of the forum. Occasionally, a member creates a new one and offers it for use - see this thread for more. We've averaged one a year the past two years...

Koneko · 09-20-2005, 09:15 AM

Ello!

I'm Koneko, an Essexian from the Desert of No Writing Circles (as I currently call my hometown.) Can't say I'm a complete LoTR fanatic, since the first decent fantasy book I picked up (at the age of twelve, adult fantasy

) was Anne McCaffrey. As a result I refuse to write a dragon as a main character, since I will never write them to my satisfaction.

I hate the Harry Potter books. I though I might get that out of the way first. They are walking cliches - and if that offends anyone, I apologise. However, I like the fanfiction, and the films are alright.

I call myself a "werd". That's a writing nerd. =^_^= Kinda fitting, since I've started to write my story in my college notebook. I've got pages marked "S" littered through it... werdish.

And I'm reading "Unfinished Tales" at the minute. o.O . Turin is such a poor tortured person... but I still want to know how Glorfindel got from probably-dead-Balrog-slayer-in-Gondolin to elf-at-Rivendell. :|

Do I need anymore here? *worry*

Koneko

Glirdan · 09-20-2005, 03:17 PM

Welcome Koneko to the Down's. I hope your stay here among the dead will be enjoyable.

Gil-Galad · 09-20-2005, 08:50 PM

welcome Koneko and enjoy yourself

Koneko · 09-21-2005, 02:25 AM
