Newbies & Introductions
Hello and wow I can't believe the forum is still here. I was a lurker here ages ago when I needed someplace to dive into to escape reality. I could read around on the forums for hours when I needed to escape the dreary clutches of reality. I am very glad that the forum is still here. I hope that this time around I will be brave enough to actually participate here and there. See you round.
Welcome to the Plaza, @Raythri! I'm glad you decided to sign up. I've done a lot of lurking on a lot of different sites in my time, so no judgment either way, but I hope you enjoy posting here!

Thanks everyone. I really am glad to be here and as an actual, for real member this time. :)
Feel free to join our Discord too! https://discord.gg/T8EQRMqc @Raythri
I may peek at discord soon. Currently I'm meandering around in the forums and threads and getting getting a feel for the place. it's been a very long time. Also, I remember now why I was a dedicated lurker back in the day. I was reading through some of the roleplays and the writers and writing is just so amazing. The brilliant writing was what kept me from participating before. I felt I could never write well enough to participate. I was content enough, though, to just wrap myself in the words and worlds of others. It was, and is, all so mesmerizing.
@Raythri Well I can at least speak for myself that I too feel that same way when I read some of the excellent RP and lore posts people make here. But don’t let that stop you from participating! We love posts of all shapes and sizes here
Welcome latest arrivals! Have new fun out here and welcome back!

Hey gang, Eruedraith Linnod here. I used to be part of the Plaza back in day, Lothlorien. It was definitely sad to see what had happened to the Plaza, but honestly, it went the way of most online roleplaying forums. It brings such joy to my heart the work that Narv and many others have put into this place, its like seeing an old gang, and so many familiar names. I can't promise that I'll be super active, but I am working on adding my character to the Lothlorien list of characters and looking for a place to roleplay a bit.
I remember starting with the Plaza not too long before they got rid of the houses, I used to love that idea, it was so quaint to have little mini-boards where you could play with your small group of bunk mates, but man did the plaza explode around that time. I remember certain threads had to be recreated every day because they would immediately fill up. Anyway, hope to see you all around.

I saw there was a discord link above, i tried to visit that as I was interested, but the page didn't actually load. Do let me know if I may join, I'd be interested, I use discord quite frequently.

@Eruedraith I am not quite sure, but I think Windy is in charge of the Discord page. The links do expire after a time. Hopefully, @Winddancer will be able to set you up (or someone else with more knowledge than I).

Thank you so much. Looking around has been a true treasure, seeing the familiar faces and places. I am looking forward to it as well.

Eruedraith: Hello, welcome back as well. I remember you too well from the old days, even it is quite a long time since I have seen you around. I can also been found on Discord though just for a means as communication more or less sometimes.

It is great to see you as well, it has been a very long time, I am flattered to be remembered at all lol
Definitely hit me up on discord, I am on there all the time, and I am down to roleplay. I have two open RPs right now, in Lothlorien and Mordor, but if you want to RP elsewhere, let me know, we can always plan something or just wing it.

Eruedraith: Eh wow, I noticed your RP's. I only have at the moment an inspiration problem and I don't want to hurt people's feelings as I have done quite recently. I know, forum runs slow. I am daily on Discord found, but I don't know your contact details. Mine are in my profile, email and discord. Most people I do recall, I was active for most years since 2004. I constantly seek new friends if it is only to chat with.

Its lovely to see so many familiar faces ^^
Lovely to see you back! :D
Hi there! A pleasure to be here and looking forward to meeting everyone!
I was a member of the plaza some years ago, I was super young (8-9ish maybe). Middle-Earth was always a home-away-from-home type of place for me. So I look forward to discussing it with all of you!

Good day everyone! I believe the last time I was on this forum was around 2016. I just found out that the Plaza had been resurrected. Unfortunately, my old account is gone but I made a new one with the same username as before! :D Good to see everyone again and thanks Admins for bringing this site back and saving some of the archives. :)
And whither then? I cannot say...
Hullo, Melahny! Good to see you! I think I do remember seeing you on the old plaza.
Thanks, I remember you too. Good to see you as well! I'm very happy you guys got this site back up. I added a Mirkwood thread that was saved on my computer to the Google drive archives.
And whither then? I cannot say...
The more, the merrier @Melahny_oftheWoods!

Hi everyone! I'm so happy to have found this place again! I was a member on the old Palaza under the name Trianna, a loooooong time ago now. It's very exciting to be back and to see some familiar names. :D

as dancing down the hill she came,
and passed his watchful silent gaze,
a glimmer as of stars ablaze.

Welcome back @Larke! Glad you found us again, I could almost swear that name sounds familiar but I can't quite place it (normally I'm known as Frost if that helps anything). Anyway we're happy you're back and hope you enjoy the place

Welcome back @Larke ! :D
Wow...this place is back? Must be over 16-17 years since I last actually posted here and last I checked a couple of years ago it was gone. I think my old brain can even recognize a couple of names. Really nice to see that it's up and running again and with steam behind it by the looks of it.
Welcome back @Gwath! Btw you missed number 8 in Halls of Knowledge ;)
Welcome back @Larke and @Gwath!! Always glad to see people returning.

Thanks for the welcome, everyone! Actually, I would love a discord link. I use discord a lot these days.
