The Hall of Fire

The way I'm going to do it here will be in two stages that is a mix of several other RP sites I'm a part of. • First is I will post a thread listing my characters, most likely with links to their dedicated pages on RP Repository. I will edit in any new characters that may come along. • Second, I wi...

Remembering back to my youth when Fleetwood Mac's lineup changed when Peter Green left. Went to a Seattle concert and I was close to the stage and I along with a lot of the crowd were reluctant that they could pull it off. There was a certain amount of heckling in the crowd because Jeromy Spencer h...

I think the way characters are presented on LotR Fanatics Plaza (I believe Eldy you are on that site?) will work. Post as your account, and header the RP post with what character you are writing. There can be a separate thread for character profiles like on LotR Plaza and old TORc) that can be link...

It makes sense to me to have alternate IDs for RP characters, as long as we know who the ID belongs to. That should be stated in the OOC thread. I've also seen it done in the screen name, e.g. let's say, Sunny posting as Arwen. Otherwise, things can get confusing.... :rofl: I agree. I'm just not su...

In my experience, strict and detailed rules like those quoted on the previous page usually aren't necessary in this era of Tolkien forums. Twenty years ago, major sites like TORC or the LOTR Plaza had to manage a constant influx of new users, many of whom had no previous exposure to message board c...

Well done Bardhwyn! Personally I think this set of rules covers the etiquette of 'collaborative roleplay story-writing' quite well. It may need a bit of clarification, polish, and such here and there. I do have a question about this part: Please note: Per the newly amended Terms of Service: While a...

Snowdog, what's TTF? Sounds scary! Pony people were the best. Also looking forward to your stories. And TTF I think is The Tolkien Forum, though I've never lurked there. Indeed it is. I registered there in December 2001 when TORc crashed under the tidal wave of hits from the first day Fellowship of...

Welcome Anriel!

Yeah! Now we're talking! As long as good etiquette is observed and people don't crash the rp stories with OOC chatter and outright plagerism, etc, like what happens on TTF, it will be a wonderous renaissance of the old Prancing Pony! Is this also going to take the place of the old TORc Reading Room...

I watched 'All Quiet On The Western Front' the other night, and I have to say I have mixed feelings about it. It was a really good World War 1 movie, and even would qualify as 'excellent' if it had another title. This is not a 'remake' of the old classic 1930 movie. The 1979 movie was a 'remake'. T...

I'm sure he does. Trouble is a lot of the 'Bernie Bros' like my brother think internal party politics is more important than the completion of a fascist takeover.

I kind of backed off following the lead-up to the mid-terms, but I take one look at what is going on now and one conversation with my little brother in Seattle, and I can confidently say that I think the USA is going to fvck themselves once again in 2022. I mean, the big fvck was 2016, and I seriou...

↑ That would have bene amusing for a few minutes at best! ↑

A movie I am looking forward to is the Netflix remake of All Quiet On the Western Front

I'd like to try a small survey - why do you read reviews? Do you rely on reviews to decide whether to watch the show? Once you start watching, do you continue reading reviews? I don't so much 'read' reviews as 'glance' at them. I can usually tell within the first paragraph were it is going and if I...

Eldy, I couldn't agree more about the Harfoots. Snowdog, thanks for your thoughts. To you catch the little bit at the end where Míriel is talking to her father? They are setting up a different dynamic between Míriel and Pharazon then what Tolkien wrote. I've only watched it once so far. Usually do ...
