Hello there everyone, this is going to be a thread to discuss anything we think should be done/changed in our guild, and any other matters that may come up or any of you have. I have some things I want to discuss regarding a few members, but first I would like all of you to please post here so I know that you are here and are going to be part of this.

Eöl

I am here Glorfindel, and I think we should start by discussing ideas for a link between the Rangers guild and our guild as soon as everyone gets here.

Anamatar IV
01-04-2003, 11:47 PM
I would start by asking Glorfindel to tell your members not to ask random people to vote for the guild of Elves and Elf Friends. If they vote for you because you asked nicely they arent voting for your guild they are voting for your pm. This guild auction has turned ill. It is no longer about the guilds...it is about who asks the most the quickest. I posted this for the Rangers, too.

Earendil
01-05-2003, 12:28 AM
Hey Glorfindel i am here!! and i think Anamatar is right...the auction is no longer about who's guild is best but who gets the most friends....we could ask our friends and people to join and then maybe they will vote for us but we shouldn't ask them to have to vote for us.......

Maeglin
01-05-2003, 03:00 AM
I agree with you Earendil and Anamatar, and I informed the rest of the Guild of this, if they continue to PM random people asking them to vote for us I will be punishing them, though I have not decided how yet cause I just thought of that, but I think a 2 day suspension from the Guild, what do you guys think of this punishment for it?

Isal Celebalda I know that you are eager to be active in the guild, which is a very good thing, but only certain people are supposed to post in this thread, there are 6 of us, we are the ruling members of the council, so I don't mean to be mean or anything but could you please not post here? For now anyway, sometime I may invite all of the members to put a post here, or certain one's, but not yet anyway, Thanks.;) Oh and one more thing, you don't have to post to me like I am a god or anything lol. (though it doesn't hurt, more of you should follow his example, lol jk:D) Isal Celebalda if you would like to know who is allowed to vote here check the first post of the Thread "Guild of Elves and Elf-friends", there you will also find a complete members list.

Okay well I know not everyone esle is here but there is one member I want to discuss briefly, and that is Thoughtful20. She has not posted in about a month or so I believe, and I have assumed that she is inactive, though I have seen some of her posts in that time. I have removed her from the members list, but do you think I should PM her before officially removing her from the Guild?

Anamatar IV
01-05-2003, 03:12 AM
As for a punishment I would make it simple and yet harsh:

If one more person does it then the Guild of Elves and Elf Friends take their name off this guild auction. If people are so desperate to get a space that they have despaired and think that the ONLY way the goeaef can win is if they pm every name they can think of then obviously they dont think goeaef can win and thus they should not be in contention to win.

But that is just a suggestion

As for thoughtful:

send her a pm before you remove her and check message tracking after a few days. If you see she has not read it assume she is inactive from the forum and delete her.:)

Nefmariel
01-05-2003, 03:21 AM
as for thoughtful I agree with Anamatar, pm her and then check it. as for punishment, I think you should maybe pm the person then depending on how many ppl they pm-ed they should be suspended for that many days.

Anamatar IV
01-05-2003, 03:29 AM
just get the message across and let the members pray their mouse button doesnt click on 'Send PM';)

Maeglin
01-05-2003, 04:48 AM
Okay guys thats what I was thinking as well, I'll post it in the main thread.

Nefmariel
01-05-2003, 06:49 AM
I didn't quite understand it could you please say again?

Maeglin
01-05-2003, 07:05 PM
Never mind anymore, disregard it, if you want to know what my final decision about the voting topic is then read my latest post in the main thread.

Earendil
01-05-2003, 10:29 PM
i agree with your decision about the punishment....as for thoughtful i would pm her first and see if she is still interested or has even been on lately.....

Maeglin
01-05-2003, 10:31 PM
I have PM'd her, and she has not been on since December 20th.

Earendil
01-05-2003, 10:32 PM
Yikes well i guess you should just take her off i mean after all if she does come back you could alwyas add her back on maybe not at the sme rank because of her inactivity but still she could still be in the guild......

Phenix
01-05-2003, 10:57 PM
it no really fair to remover her if she's only been gona seice 20th december... after al there has been a lot of holidays and not everyone has been able to get online...but as Earendil said we could alway add her when/if she returns

Maeglin
01-05-2003, 11:53 PM
Okay well I'll give her a few more days to respond to my PM before I remove her from the list.

Ramagna
01-06-2003, 12:10 AM
I've got a question...
The Elves Guild is mainly about the RPG until now...
ANd since I couldn't be that active in the last time, I lost the storyline... what about holding it down in some thread...
How do you like the idea?

Maeglin
01-06-2003, 12:56 AM
As I posted in the main thread, what exactly does that mean?

Earendil
01-06-2003, 01:45 AM
hehe i don't what you mean either.......:confused:

Phenix
01-06-2003, 10:53 PM
he probobly means taht someone should star a thread were we type if something important happens in the rp ( like new people joins or when we splitted up into two groups). that way peoples who has been gone doesn't have to reed everything ( it can be really annoying)

is this right Ramagna or did I misunderstood you?

ms Greenleaf
01-07-2003, 12:00 AM
I know I should not post here but whatever mabe yoou should give alittle more backround info like when the RPG takes place.... in comparison to the LOTR

Maeglin
01-07-2003, 12:20 AM
Okay, good idea, I'll put up a thread like that now.

Maeglin
01-07-2003, 11:06 PM
Hey everyone I'm out of room to place people!:eek: So help me think of a name for another group to place people in. Any good idea's?

ms Greenleaf
01-07-2003, 11:56 PM
Why not make a bad side?
Or Mirkwood elves
or elves that cam bach from crossing the ocean?

Maeglin
01-08-2003, 12:33 AM
Well the Mirkwood is Greenwood with its good name. I like the idea of the Elves that returned from the Blessed Realm, but then I'd have to replace myself, but thats ok, my character died in the RP and will need a new place, so I'll call the new group the Quenya(which is high elves, just that they've seen the trees)

Calimehtar
01-08-2003, 12:39 AM
Maybe you could use Lothlorien?

Maeglin
01-08-2003, 12:46 AM
No, Mirkwood and Lothlorien merged and became Greenwood in the beginning of the fourth age, and since the RP's take place in the fourth age, I made it Greenwood the Great, but anyway I already made a new group called Quendi, it will be used when new members come, and I think the Higher-ranking members will be placed in that group, and I'll put the new members in ones that already exist.

Earendil
01-08-2003, 12:58 AM
that sounds like a great idea Glorfindel!!

Maeglin
01-08-2003, 01:02 AM
Thanks, ok its all fixed now.

Phenix
01-08-2003, 08:34 PM
so I'm no longer from rivendell:( but from the blessed realm:)

ms Greenleaf
01-08-2003, 11:07 PM
This isn't going to change the RPG is it? Oh and you should add this somewhere so as to be less coonfusinhg

ms Greenleaf
01-08-2003, 11:10 PM
Oh if you want me gone tell me ?

Maeglin
01-08-2003, 11:18 PM
From the Guild?! No I don't want you gone! From the thread, yes, no offense meant, but I wanted to limit it to just a few members, but I may add people if we keep getting new members coming by the day like we are.

ms Greenleaf
01-08-2003, 11:24 PM
no I get it see yah

Anamatar IV
01-10-2003, 01:49 AM
I suggest a purging of the threads in the guild of elves. There are several rps that have finished and there is one discussion that has...there are also several threads that do not need deletion but to be purged themselves. So what I think we should do is pick out your favorite finished rp to save ( I would like to keep the discussion...for example purposes.:)) and we delete the other (I think there are two)

Tell me what you think of this.:)

Maeglin
01-10-2003, 01:59 AM
I think we should keep the discussion as well, but how do I delete entire threads? I don't think I can do that.

Earendil
01-10-2003, 02:19 AM
i think you could you are the guild leader and all.....

Anamatar IV
01-10-2003, 03:06 AM
well that is for the Almight PM button to do for us.;) I'll take care of the pm-just I would like some of the more rp active members of the council to pick some threads you think should go kaput;)

Eöl
01-10-2003, 03:43 AM
I say we lose all the question threads...Random Questions and those and make one thread...Questions Concerning The Eldar.
................1 post 'til 200! And one more thing, the Orc Hunting Thread is bothering me, I think it's unoriginal and has already been done (in a sense) by the Dark Legion AND the Mithril Knights. So maybe some one, or I, or I could talk to #1Legolas#1 and see if he sees my point. That is if you guys agree with me?

Ramagna
01-10-2003, 10:53 AM
Thank you, Glorfindel for the Overlook-over-the-story-thread...

And I've got another question... it seems to me, most of the roleplay here until now is of fighting, and although I would say fighting is an essential part of roleplaying, I would be glad to have more other situations...

Hope I could make my point clear...

Maeglin
01-10-2003, 09:26 PM
Yes I noticed that and it bothered me, but I did have my character die like you did Ramagna!:D Anyway, now that my character is sort of dead (but still has a part in the RP) Earendil is in charge of the Rhun RP, and its up to her to stop so much fighting in that one, and Phenix you have to control it in the Harad RP. Now I understand that you can't control what other people write in the RP posts, but I think I'll just put up an announcement concerning RP's. And Celebrien I think that is a good idea as well.

Anamatar IV

I fully agree with the orc hunting as well as the DELETION (I really see no more use for them;)) of all the question threads.

Earendil
01-11-2003, 01:59 AM
yes i agree the wuestion threads are practically about the same things so we should make it all into one! and everyone i'm trying to think of situations to bring up thats not figthing....and i think i know how so you'll find out soon! hope you guys like it!!!:D ;)

Anamatar IV
01-11-2003, 02:04 AM
About the orc hunting thread-I have not had it deleted yet for it is a big thread that is getting posts every day and if some of the active participants in it have problems with it getting deleted...well...we as the council must deal with them by negotiation.:)

Maeglin
01-11-2003, 02:33 AM
Alright I'll ask if they mind it being deleted in the main thread, but if a lot of them don't want it deleted, we'll have to come up for an alternative for them. (Like another thread with the same general idea of RP practicing)

Rasec
01-11-2003, 04:42 AM
Hi, everyone! I am sorry I have not posted here yet, but as some of you know, I had a problem with father. =) I am able to post today, but I never know of tomorrow. And besides, I am travelling soon, so if I don't post in a while, do not worry.
Lord Glorfindel, am I to be the leader of the company with Earendil or is she the only leader? You wrote something on the RP and another thing here. I am confused. =)
Congratulations, everyone, for our good work into making the Guild official. Thank you all, and see you hopefully soon.

'Rasec.

Maeglin
01-11-2003, 04:50 AM
Both of you are the leaders Rasec, but of course, when you're not there, she'll be the only leader.

Earendil
01-13-2003, 01:07 AM
yes me adn rasec both are the leaders!......but its sooo sad that you can't come on so frequently.....but whenever you come back on you can count yourself as a leader!:D

Rasec
01-13-2003, 02:40 AM
Thanks, Earendil. I am active now, but I do not know about my future. I am not sure if I will be active tomorrow, and so on. Therefore I may be not very active this week and next, next. =) But I am usually active on weekends. See you soon, milady.

'Rasec.

Maeglin
01-13-2003, 02:42 AM
Milady? Awwww what a Gentleman!:D lol jk Rasec, I'm just teasing ya.:D

Rasec
01-13-2003, 03:41 AM
I AM a gentleman, Glorf. ;) I do not accept teasings. I now am a Quendi Elf of the Guild - respect! LoL Nahh, I know you were joking, Glorf. See you soon, by the way, milord.

'Rasec.

PS: Did anyone like my new signature AND title?

Earendil
01-13-2003, 07:12 AM
he is a gentle men and thats awesome!!!;) its nice to see you back and a leader again!

Maeglin
01-17-2003, 07:39 PM
Alright what does everyone think of the ranking system? Do you think its too confusing? Should I rank the colors in a different order, like lightest to darkest?

Eöl
01-17-2003, 08:12 PM
I don't think it is too confusing, but we should definitely figure a new class for new members. I don't have any ideas off the top of my head, but maybe someone else could could think something up.

Maeglin
01-17-2003, 08:14 PM
I put up a new class already, its Hollin, thats where the Elves lived long ago in middle-earth and the road from Moria passed through there, but that'll probably run out of spaces pretty soon.

Rasec
01-17-2003, 08:55 PM
I don't think it's confusing, Glorfindel. my friend. But I agree with you that the colours should be re-organised. The colours are too mixed up, I mean, there must be nicer colours. Here it goes what I think they should be:
High, Golden, Silver, Grey, White and Beige.
Does that sound cool?

'Rasec.

Maeglin
01-17-2003, 09:03 PM
Beige? I dunno about that, Beige just sounds kind of funny, how about Brown? And I think that white would be above Grey, but I'm the White! Well I plan on reorganizing the colors but I need a substitute for white, or I could use both Brown and Beige.

Maeglin
01-17-2003, 11:03 PM
Hey can one of you PM please? It doesn't matter who, as long as someone on the council does, its not about the ranking, tis about something else....

Eöl
01-18-2003, 01:41 AM
What do you mean PM? Do you want us to talk to a mod about something? I don't understand what you mean...

Maeglin
01-18-2003, 01:44 AM
Just send me a Private Message and I'll send one back to you concerning what its about, I just don't want to post it where everyone can see it if you understand me.....

Maeglin
01-18-2003, 01:49 AM
Hey did anyone by any chance send me a PM recently? I'm just asking because I just got an e-mail saying that I had a new private message,but when I checked my inbox I didn't have anything new.

Calimehtar
01-18-2003, 01:53 AM
(Sorry, I am messaging here, I know I'm not supposed to and I will delete it soon. I PM-ed you. And it wouldnt go through because your inbox is full.)

Maeglin
01-23-2003, 09:34 PM
Does anyone else think that I should stop people from joining after this last group fills up? We are getting way too many people, some of which rarely ever post.

Anamatar IV
01-23-2003, 10:01 PM
I hate it when guilds limit memberships. There were many Elves throughout Tolkien's works. A new group perhaps?


Elves of Lindon. This would be a High Noble Class of Elves from whom Gil-galad abided during his kingship.

And also, if people don't post....kick them out. Don't wait for them just BOOT!

Maeglin
01-23-2003, 10:04 PM
Ha ha okay Anamatar I won't put a limit on, I'll add the Lindon group after the newest one(Tol Eressea) fills up.;)

I am now asking you members of the Council to help me change/determine ranks for members, I need to edit the list every so often and I haven't done it in a while, so if you could look over the list and give me your suggestions about members, for I know that some post in threads that I don't read (such as the Island one) very often and others may know that they do post more often than I know. I am also considering (due to our ever-growing numbers) adding another member to the council, so if anyone has any suggestions on either of these things please PM me or post it here.;)

Eöl
01-24-2003, 05:45 AM
As for another member, I would definitely go with Calimehtar he posts a lot and is definitely able to handle the responsibility. For new membership stuff I would change the colors to lighter, more Elvish colors. Someone already posted this I think but, but how about High, Gold, Silver, Grey, Green, and then Dark Brown. That allows six member per group...

Maeglin
01-24-2003, 08:37 PM
Hmmm I like that idea with the colors Celebrien, I'll go change them now, but I'll just make it brown, its easier than dark brown. And I was thinking Calimehtar as well, but what does everyone else think, should we add another member to the council?

Anamatar IV
01-26-2003, 05:16 PM
I was recently looking at the member list and I found about 10 members who have not posted in a week. So I suggest this:

Make it a requirement that each member should post at least once a week. Inactivity does not start at a month. If they can't post in the rps or discussions at least post in the halls of Menegroth. And if it is impossible to post one week you can simply post in a thread I will start entitled "Excuses

Maeglin
01-26-2003, 07:23 PM
Alright good idea Anamatar, I'll make that announcement in the main thread.

Eöl
01-27-2003, 05:36 AM
Have you decided on the new Council member yet Glorfindel?

Earendil
01-27-2003, 08:21 PM
hey you guys i like the colors idea change...it was getting kinda confusing. and as for the new member of the new council member i also suggest Calimehtar he seems to be very active and he seems very sooted to join us...but as for the idea where you should put a required amount of posts per week i kinda see it as not fair some people in this guild that i know don't always have access to a computer every week yet they still contribute....

Maeglin
01-27-2003, 08:30 PM
yes I know, such as Rasec, and Ramagna also has very good reason to be not so active, but if someone does not have access to a computer for a while that is obviously a perfectly good reason not to post, and when they post again they can mention that they haven't had access for a while or they can just PM one of us.....

Oh and yes I think I will be adding Calimehtar to the Council, I'll send him a PM about it now.

Earendil
01-27-2003, 08:43 PM
alright and i think its a good idea to add Calimehtar! and i have a question i'm not sure if i understand were you thinking about changing the ranks of some should we pm our suggestions to you or post them here?:D

Maeglin
01-27-2003, 08:48 PM
Yes it was about changing the ranks of some, it doesn't matter where you tell me, you can either PM me or post it here.

Maeglin
01-27-2003, 11:15 PM
Okay everyone I think its time to make another Rules and Punishment thread, what do you think?

Anamatar IV
01-27-2003, 11:17 PM
But dont have it open for discussion. Have a mod close the thread when we are done with it. So before you post it lets come up with the rules:)

Maeglin
01-27-2003, 11:27 PM
Yeah thats what I was thinking, we don't need Spam all over this one like we did with the last one....

Anamatar IV
01-28-2003, 01:29 AM
~All members must post at least once a week.

~All forum rules apply here

~Though this be a guild of elves, all races of rp character are accepted here--there is to be no discriminating by race (dwarf, elf, man...)


Punishments:

I suggest a three strike policy. 2 chances to break the rules on the third you get a suspension.

Maeglin
01-28-2003, 01:45 AM
Those are very good rules Anamatar and should definitely be put into effect, but now lets think more along the lines of rules for RPs, such as:
~ try to keep inane banter out of all RP posts
~ obviously be respectful towards one another
~ try not to speak for the characters of others, let them play the role of their own character
~do not use magic or go beyond the limit of your character's abilities, these abilities can be found on the first page of the "Members List" thread
~this applies to both RP's and out of RP's: If a member of higher rank tells you to do something, do it without question, I have the ranks for a reason, if someone above tells you something then you must listen and do as you're told, if you have a major problem with what someone has told you, bring it up with myself or another Council Member.

-It is strongly suggested, though not required, that all members take at least 1 RP training class of some kind in the Heren Istarion


Okay does anyone have any others?

Anamatar IV
01-28-2003, 02:18 AM
no but I would like to get rid of one: "try not to speak for the characters of others, let them play the role of their own character
"

I see no problem with this and sometimes it is needed to voice another character in an rp.

Maeglin
01-28-2003, 03:53 AM
Yes I understand that and I thought it might be a problem, but I wanted to put it up just to see what others thought, your response was not totally unexpected Anamatar, I second-guessed myself after I had put that in there.:rolleyes:

Rasec
01-28-2003, 06:34 AM
I agree with both, but I think that Glorfindel first meant that RPers must only "avoid" speaking for the others. Of course they can write some lines as another character, for they're necessary, but try not to "live" the other character's life. I hope you know what I mean.

'Rasec.

Calimehtar
01-28-2003, 12:27 PM
Glorfindel PMed me about joining the Council of Glofindel, and I ACCEPT! (Though I havent been active for the past week and a half or so.) I'll fix that, though. (lol, I've been playing this cool game through the internet. (age of empired II and age of mythology) Thanks for accepting me! Its about 5 Am here so i'll try to catch up on all the posts, the rest I will get after school.

-Calimehtar

Phenix
01-28-2003, 09:56 PM
welcome to the council then...those rules sounds good. maybe we should add on thing... maybe it's not a rule but we should really try to fight less and have more conversations and stuff.

Maeglin
01-28-2003, 11:34 PM
I agree that is a very good rule(well I don't think it will really be a rule, but it will be strongly encouraged), good Idea Phenix.;)

Maeglin
01-29-2003, 02:36 AM
What do you suggest the punishment be for not posting within a week?

Calimehtar
01-29-2003, 02:43 AM
Lower rank first time, second time, suspension or probation... something like that? I'm not sure... (also not sure if I entirely agree with it)

Maeglin
01-29-2003, 02:46 AM
Good idea Calimehtar, especially since rank is based on activity, if someone stays inactive they should become lower in rank, and the second time a suspension for a few days, excellent idea!;)

Eöl
01-29-2003, 04:59 AM
Sounds like a good idea to me, just an example #1Legolas#1 hasn't posted in the Harad thread in awhile, so he would then receive a PM telling him to participate or he will be suspended on a second notice. That's how it would work, correct? If so I think that would work fine, and maybe thin out our ranks to those who actually care about posting and having fun in this guild!

Rasec
01-29-2003, 05:10 AM
I think there should be two warnings, and then on the thrid warning, the suspension. I think it is used like this in most of the guilds. At least HI uses something like that. Well, anyway, I'm too tired to think now, sorry. I'll try to be more active soon. See you all later.

'Rasec.

Maeglin
01-29-2003, 09:01 PM
Okay 2 warnings it will be, sort of like 3 strikes and your out, and since there are 3 outs, if someone does this 3 times, then they're out of the guild.

Anamatar IV
01-29-2003, 09:04 PM
I am VERY fond of having all these numbers in punishments be three:

The three divisions of the elves

The three Silmarils crafted by the Elves

The three elven ring.

Calimehtar
01-29-2003, 09:07 PM
yikes, expellment! So do you mean, 1 week no post, get warning, 'while later, he doesnt post for a week, another warning, and later if he does it a third time he is out of the guild. Do those 'warnings' bring down his rank? (It does right? I think they should.)

-Calimehtar

Maeglin
01-29-2003, 09:07 PM
lol okay Anamatar, I didn't think of that but....whatever, it works.;)

Maeglin
01-29-2003, 09:10 PM
Calimehtar you have the right idea, but your a little off, its like this: Someone doesn't post for one week, first warning. Someone doesn't post again, second warning. Someone doesn't post again, suspension. After 2 suspensions if comes to it then you are out of the guild, so really someone must not post for 9 weeks in order to get themselves Excommunicated from the guild.

One more thing we need a punishment for is starting threads without asking me first, nothing too serious, what do you all think?

Calimehtar
01-29-2003, 09:42 PM
We have to check into them making new threads like that... see I told someone to look for the thread called New Thread Ideas, and Eomwyn might have seen it. (and she called it what I said look for) Anyways, some of the threads werent showing up without changing the settings for how many days back to look for threads, like the RP Summary. I had to change the days to 45 to find it. So, be easy on her, because she might have misunderstood me when I said go to that thread...

As for punishment... warning, do it again, decrease rank. I dont think it should be any/much more than that.

-Calimehtar

Maeglin
01-29-2003, 09:45 PM
Yes I wasn't thinking much more than that either, okay thats settled.

Maeglin
01-30-2003, 11:14 PM
In case you guys haven't read the Rules and Punishment thread, I have given all of you authority to decide if thread idea's that people submit in the thread that is now named "Submit your thread idea's to myself and the council here" are good or not, I also hope that you will all enforce the rules if someone breaks them, for I can't keep track of everyone.

Maeglin
01-31-2003, 12:15 AM
Actually the name on the thread didn't change, so it still says what it did before, but you get the idea.

Maeglin
01-31-2003, 09:49 PM
No one minds if I delete the Rivendell thread do they? Also if there are any discussions or threads up that any of you started and there is really no point to them or if the discussion seems at a close could you please delete them? Thanks

Maeglin
01-31-2003, 09:51 PM
Never mind that, you can't delete the first post of a thread.:rolleyes:

Calimehtar
01-31-2003, 11:09 PM
I am fine with you deleting the Rivendell Thread. Have you looked in the RPG Summary thread? The other day, I asked for people to delete their posts and we would update it all in one post every so often. I havent checked it today, so I dont know if you, or anyone has looked at it... (BTW, that was all to Glorf... I dont think any of you others have posted in that thread)

-Calimehtar

Maeglin
01-31-2003, 11:13 PM
Okay I didn't see that, I'll delete the posts in that thread, but like I said I can't delete the Rivendell thread, I'm not allowed to delete the first post in a thread.

Rasec
02-01-2003, 07:45 AM
Ask a Moderator to delete it for you, Glorfindel. ;) I am sure they will attend you. Oh well, I guess.

'Rasec.

Eöl
02-01-2003, 07:50 AM
Hmm, about deleting threads why don't we put a time limit on post activity before PMing a mod to delete it. Say, 10 days? If that's too short please speak up anyone.

Maeglin
02-01-2003, 03:22 PM
I think that is a good activity limit Celebrien. Rasec I'll ask a mod to delete it, but I'll wait a while, I don't like annoying the mods, and every time I ask them to delete something someone else comes along and puts up a thread that shouldn't be here, so I'll ask them eventually, just not yet....

Rasec
02-01-2003, 06:15 PM
Ok, Glorfindel. It is a good decision, I think. When you have an ammount of things to be deleted, ask the Mods all at once. It is better than to be annoy them more than once. =)

'Rasec.

Anamatar what was that other group name you had told me to use last week? I can't remember it now, and I need it.

Anamatar IV
02-02-2003, 05:26 PM
Lindon.:)

Maeglin
02-02-2003, 06:53 PM
Okay thanks, and what'd you get warning points for?!:eek:

Calimehtar
02-05-2003, 01:59 AM
Since, I am reading the Sil. right now, I have seen a lot of different Elf-group names. Like the Quendi, theres the Teleri, the Vanyar, the Noldor, the Sindar, and a lot of others... we could always use them....?

[edit]: but then again, thats way different than "RIVENDELL" and "HOLLIN" and all that... those are places, not Elf-groups.

Maeglin
02-05-2003, 02:01 AM
Well I guess we could, but the Teleri are just like the Grey Havens, Sindar like Greenwood and Hollin, Noldor like Rivendell, but hey, I'll probably end up using those names all the same cause I'm fresh out of ideas.

Calimehtar
02-05-2003, 02:05 AM
hhmm... really? I didnt know all that. (Sindar=Greenwood, all that) as for new names.... hhhmmm.... well I cant think of anything that hasnt been said....

Maeglin
02-05-2003, 02:09 AM
Well they are not directly related, but they do have some similarities, like Galadriel and Elrond are some of the last Noldorian Elves left in Middle-Earth, Thranduil is descended from King Thingol, etc.

Earendil
02-05-2003, 02:41 AM
so far i agree with all rules adn punishments adn as of right now i'm thinking of some possible rules but about the names of the new groups i really can't think of something else either but i'm not sure and i haven't read the sil in awhile i'm trying to get to re-reading it through all my studies but couldn't Beleriand be one?

Maeglin
02-05-2003, 02:57 AM
Oh yeah, stupid me, wow now that I think of it there's plenty I could use: Gondolin, all those other places I can't remember the names of, etc...

Calimehtar
02-05-2003, 05:17 AM
OK, Glorfindel back to the issue of the "inactive members." (If any of you want to know what I am talking about, I made a post on the "Member's List" thread about a few inactive members.

Anyways, if we can make a list of people that haven't posted here in a while, (and believe it or not, there are people who haven't posted AT ALL besides in the "Wanna Join? Sign up Here" thread. Just what I can think of off the top of my head, here are the people that I think havent posted in atleast 10 days (minimum!).
note: a "?" will mean maybe, and a "**" will mean definatly

01) Anira - ? note: I have never noticed her posts
02) Legolas Luver - **
03) #1 Legolas #1 - **
04) MorgulKing - **
05) FREEDOM - **
06) JessetheLOTRfan - **
07) Aragorn_rocks - ?
08) Dain Ironfoot 1 - (I believe he is part of Heren Istarion, right? And if you want him on just because he is of our.. "allied guild?" thats fine.
09) Barakul - **


What I was thinking is, we could PM the ones we decide havent posted in a long time, and see if 1) they even reply, showing if they are even an active member of the whole forum anymore, and 2) if they do reply, do they still want to be a member of Elves and Elf Friends.

-Calimehtar

Rasec
02-05-2003, 05:25 AM
Very nice of you, Calimehtar, to make such list. I always thought these people should be PMed, and, in case they don't give an answer in, for instance, 7 days, they should get deleted of the Guild. That's not a statemente, just an opinioj. If you need any help, count on me.

See you soon,
'Rasec.

Maeglin
02-05-2003, 08:43 PM
There are a few others I've noticed, if you could be so kind as to PM the first 3 on the list notifying them of this, I will take care of the rest, it just takes me forever to send PM's to everyone, and unfortunately I have a TON of homework to do tonight, so I may not be on again today, see ya!;)

Calimehtar
02-06-2003, 12:46 AM
I PMed 2/3 that you asked me to PM. Anira doesnt even exist... I looked for her in the Members List, and when I tried using "Anira" it said that it was an invalid name. .......................

Maeglin
02-06-2003, 01:34 AM
Oh she existst, but I put her short name on the members list, her full user name is Anira the Elf.;)

Rasec
02-06-2003, 06:40 AM
Glorfindel and Calimehtar, if you need any help PMing everyone, or any other help, just ask me via PM. =)

'Rasec.

02-07-2003, 12:32 AM
One more member...FREEDOM!...I think I will just take care of that one myself but I was thinking maybe you could get some kind of announcement out to the members about joining the guild for stupid reasons (spamming, Legolas Lovers lol, and also just joining for the heck of it.) We want a clean and orderly guild and I think those who show their support deserve an orderly guild.

Maeglin
02-07-2003, 12:56 AM
I sent a PM to FREEDOM Celebrien, don't worry about that one, and I think you are right about making the announcement, I'm not gonna be on for the rest of the night so if you want to make an announcement thread go ahead and I'd appreciate it, thanks,
Glorf

Maeglin
02-07-2003, 08:09 PM
FREEDOM had returned my PM and said sorry that he hasn't posted in a while because his internet has been down and he's had a lot of work to do. So I guess that means he is still in the guild. Okay well I'm waiting for the responses from everyone else.

Maeglin
02-08-2003, 10:54 PM
Morgulking is still with us as well, but Barakul is not.

Emowyn
02-08-2003, 11:23 PM
Umm, hi! Ok Glorf told me to post my idea for the highrachy thing here. well the out line of it is here:

http://www.geocities.com/thetolkienweb/Rank.htm (http://http://www.geocities.com/thetolkienweb/Rank.htm)

The graphic takes a while to load......

Anamatar IV
02-08-2003, 11:35 PM
Instead of Quendi lets have something else since the Quendi applies to most if not all Elves I do believe. How about the Calaquendi: the Elves who have seen the light of the two trees. This would be very good for this guild since Glorfindel was a Calaquendi.

Emowyn
02-08-2003, 11:39 PM
http://www.geocities.com/thetolkienweb/Rank.htm

this should work.....

Emowyn
02-08-2003, 11:44 PM
This idea is the same basis as Glorf's really just alittle more advanced in the atual selection. I think that each person should not only have to earn their rank, but also their character should fit with witchever kin they're in. this makes it easier to keep track of them and it also makes it more interesting in rp's

Rasec
02-09-2003, 03:40 AM
I agree with Anamatar. Quendi means simply Elf, doesn't it? Well, Calaquendi as he said, or anything more important would be nice! =) See you,

'Rasec.

Calimehtar
02-09-2003, 06:31 AM
Thats fine with me... (the new rank system.) Though, I havent noticed the change except with re-naming the Quendi.. I'll have to go look what the current ranks are.

Though, I like this idea: That the group names be "groups" not places. Like Noldor, Teleri, Valar, etc. (OR IS THAT WHAT EMOWYN WAS TRYING TO SAY?)
And then the ranks be the normal.. High, White, Gold, Silver, whatever.

For the new Quendi name the Valar or something... I know those aren't elves, but it just seems like a good name since we are the highest up, except for Glorfindel and he could be "Illuvatar" (but dont call him Illuvatar, leave him as Glorfindel the White.) Anyways, don't know if any of that made sense... hope it did...

-Calimehtar

Emowyn
02-09-2003, 09:11 AM
Yes Calimehtar, I was saying that they be groups instead of places. I thought that if each of the council (quendi) where actually one of the two high elves of each kin, then it would mean you would have one from each kin also giving them an identity. Just an Idea...lol I meant to post this last night... I thought for the quendi, they could be the Eldar, one of the first kins of the Elves. Although the Calaquendi (Which are The Elves of the Light) also fits nicely.
As for the members who are not elves, well they could be the Elendili (Elf-friends)

Rasec
02-09-2003, 04:22 PM
Emowyn's ideas are very nice! Thanks, Emowyn! I liked the ranking system you suggested. The names for the current 'Quendi' are fine as well. It is now up to Glorfindel to decide everything. Go, Glorf!

'Rasec.

Maeglin
02-09-2003, 06:22 PM
I like it I like it!:) I also like the idea of renaming the Quendi the Calaquendi. The only problem with the whole thing is the White Elves, I'm the White Elf and leader, we need to think of a different color. Unless you want to call me Master Elf.:D

Emowyn
02-09-2003, 06:43 PM
how about grey?

Maeglin
02-09-2003, 07:13 PM
Alrighty then, Grey works, I don't know why I didn't think of it seeing as we already use that color, stupid Glorfindel. :rolleyes:

Rasec
02-09-2003, 07:18 PM
Grey, it is then. But then it must be after Silver - It should be High Golden, Silver, Grey, Green and Brown. Just an opinion. =)
By the way, I think that all Calaquendi should follow mine and Earendil's example. We've invented nice titles for us. Mine is Dawnstar Quendi (soon Calaquendi), and Earendil's is Moonglow Quendi. Why don't you make it a requirement, Glorf, that all Calaquendi must have a title like ours? Just another opinion...

'Rasec.

Emowyn
02-09-2003, 07:40 PM
ok, hang on I'll change the page...

EDIT: ok done. High, gold, silver, grey, green and brown

Maeglin
02-09-2003, 08:07 PM
Oh damn! No don't edit the page, I already changed around the whole members list and it took me forever! I already put Grey above Golden: it now goes High, Grey, Gold, Silver, Green, Brown. Rasec I think the titles are nice, but I don't know that everyone should have one, I know I don't have one, I'm too lazy to think up a fancy name, but if anyone wants to give themselves a title, feel free.;)

Emowyn
02-09-2003, 08:11 PM
lol ok ok! I have a title although it's not used very often. it's:
Emowyn, The white Lady of Mirthdor and the Elesselde of Elves.

Rasec
02-09-2003, 08:16 PM
Oh, sorry Glorfindel, for having said that Grey should be under Silver. I made this confusion. Sorry.
About the titles, that's ok. You have a title anyway. =)

'Rasec.

Phenix
02-09-2003, 09:44 PM
well apparantly you've already deseided that we should have the new sytem but I'll thought I anyway should say that I too thinks it's a good system

Earendil
02-09-2003, 10:04 PM
i agree, your ideas are great Emowyn! and about the titles it took me forever to think up of one!!!

Calimehtar
02-10-2003, 04:03 AM
Calimehtar: The Good-Looking Quendi

haha, j/k... uumm... what could my title be???

Calimehtar
I Calimelen Quendi

OR


Calimehtar
The Lost Quendi

Rasec
02-10-2003, 05:22 AM
I've thought of some titles for the Calaquendi members, and here they are:

The Starlight Calaquendi
The Fairlight Calaquendi
The Whitestone Calaquendi
The Bluetree Calaquendi
The Everfair Calaquendi
The Wanderer Calaquendi
Etc.

They're just suggestions, you may use them if you want to. :)
See you soon,

I know I shouldn't post here but I feel I should bring this to the attention of the council.

I don't know about anyone else, but it bothers me that so many elves are making themselves all-powerful and giving themselves telepathic ability. For example, read the last few pages of the Long Lost Island RP. So many of them ruin things by reading minds, etc. Obviously I'm not bothered by Nef having it becayse she has been in the Guild so long and she uses it sensibly, but why is everyone copying her? Glorf, do you allow so many powers? At this rate I feel we'll end up like the telepathic version of the White Council.

Eöl
02-10-2003, 07:59 PM
Thank you for bringing this to our notice Isal. Hmm, what to be done? We have already specified more times than should be necessary that magic is not allowed. With your permission, Glorfindel I'm going to edit the "Announcement: Spam, Joining and other Issues" thread to include a rule specifically forbidding magic. I can do that, or you could edit the "Rules And Punishments" thread. I don't know if the "Rules And Punishment" thread would catch peoples attention as much as the "Announcement" thread would though....Anyway, just some suggestions.:)


BTW, Nefmariel should not be using "magic", even if she is using it "sensibly".

Maeglin
02-10-2003, 09:23 PM
Whooaa whoaa calm down. Magic (a little bit of it) is allowed for the Calaquendi to use. However, none others may use it. But, mind-reading is allowed for one of the groups, it is on the the first post of the RP profiles thread. However, I need to edit that, and I'll edit the rules as well. Thanks Isal

Isal Celebalda
02-10-2003, 10:14 PM
Glorf, you haven't updated the RP Profiles to fit the new houses (Sindar, Teleri, etc). Just so you know.

Maeglin
02-10-2003, 10:17 PM
Yes I know I know! I'm very busy right now and will be for the next few days, I have a HUGE Chinese History project due in a couple of weeks and its worth 500 points! :eek: I'll take care of all of that member/rank stuff in a couple of days.

Hey everyone, I don't know if any of you noticed... but I havent been on in like.... FOREVER. a few months probably. Lightning struck my computer and fried the modem so i had to buy a new one. key word there is "I" not "the family" or "my brothers", but "I" which really sucked. So, anyways, I'm here now, and I am going to try to catch up.

BTW, former Celebrien (forgot your new name), I'm glad that you are doing the Quenya.

I also noticed a new guild.... The Guild of Dwarves... hhhmm.....:rolleyes:

Calimehtar that really sucks!!! Anyway I've been gone for about 3 weeks as well (well I came once very briefly), I'm tryin to catch up as well. And I just noticed the Guild of Dwarves too....hmmmm......I'm not gonna say anything, I'll keep my big mouth shut, or rather, I'll keep my fingers off the keyboard. :rolleyes:

Welcome back Calimehtar, good to see you again! Anywho...I had to stop the Quenya...lack of participation and all....Oh well....But still, feel free to jump back into whatever RPs you were in with me...Are we in Harad together?

Aulë
04-05-2003, 07:58 AM
What's all this negativity been directed at the Guild of Dwarves for?
I'm a senior member for both Guilds, and I feel that we can get some brilliant inter-guild RPGs going between the two Guilds.
The Harad/Rhun RPG is nearing completion, so that's something for you all to think about.

Maeglin
04-05-2003, 04:46 PM
Not negativity, simply observation. And yes I am hoping to conclude the Rhun and Harad RPG's this weekend or this week, I just need people to take part in them so they can be finished up!

Aulë
04-05-2003, 05:14 PM
Well Harad are going along quite nicely.
We are battling with Allatar right now (only 4 of us though).

Calimehtar
04-06-2003, 01:06 AM
Yeah, I was part of Harad but wasnt able to get on due to weather occurences, lol, so I missed the whole thing... last time I was on, Glorfindel and Radaghast were going to fight some guy... forgot his name and all.

Anyways, Dwarf/Elf RPGs - would we just choose one of the guilds to hold the RPG Thread?

Maeglin
04-06-2003, 01:13 AM
ummm we could do that, but I think we would probably hold it in one of the RPG forums.

Maeglin
04-09-2003, 11:16 PM

Elvin motrice has been busy with school (exams) and is momentarily ill. He joined this guild to learn Quenya on my advise.

Don't remove him from the guild yet.

The young man is my AGM in another game, in an elven forum to be precise. :)

Glorfindel- we should start pushing for the Rivendell (Harad/Rhun) to be completed.
They seem to be slowing down once more.

Also, I'd suggest that one of us PM a mod, and ask them not to delete the GoE: Rivendell thread in the upcoming cleanup as I feel that it, and the Harad/Rhun theads, deserve to be put in the RPG Archives.

Rasec
04-13-2003, 07:57 PM
Yeah, I agree with Aulë that the RP's are kinda slowing down. People, please post!! I think I was the last one to post and it was on Wednesday. What happened? We still have to kill Alatar and Pallando!
And Aulë, just so you know (if you don't yet know), it's written 'Guild of Dwaves' in your Avatar, when (I imagine) it should be written 'Guild of Dwarves'.

See you all,

Aulë
04-14-2003, 01:07 PM
No- it's still there.
Just change the options so it shows all posts from the beginning, and right at the bottom, there will be the Rivendell thread.

EDIT: In fact, to save you the trouble, I'll just post the link.

Arcanjo has withdrawn his membership.

Sorry, I tried. ;)

Speaking of Arcanjo, he started the Long Lost Island RP. It's really slowing down (more so than any other RP), so perhaps we should do something about it?

Maeglin
04-14-2003, 08:26 PM
hmmm perhaps the people taking part in it could speed it up, I'm not in it, but if it stays inactive for more than a few days, along with the other RP's, I think I'll just put an end to them in some way, either have them deleted or just post a quick ending to all of them.;) Thank you for the link Aule.

Congrats Glorf.

Phenix, we can apply for a dorm at the ME-RPG, then start the new RP's on there. Part of our members are here for both Tolkien and the RP's. Not applying might mean the slow death of the Guild too.

anyway... Glorfindel as the leader of teh guild you should be the one too apply for the guild so...

You are, Charmiana. =) We were in the tower of Pallando, fighting him and the Balrog. Now we have defeated them and Glorfindel and Radagast have left to Valinor. Go see the two last posts, by me and Glorfindel. ;) I'm glad and sad it's finished!

Oh well now I know what Scatha was talking about in the main thread! Okay well I guess we could/should apply for a spot on whatever that other place is, I am completely lost here with everything.:rolleyes:

Anyway, thanks for your votes everyone, and congrats to Aule as well!:)

04-19-2003, 05:14 PM
OK, has anyone come up with any ideas for the GoD/GoE joint-RPG yet?
Perhaps a quest to regain the last 3 Dwarvish Rings from the ruins of Mordor?

Scatha
04-19-2003, 10:32 PM
Congrats to you too Aule, good to see you made the final list too.

A joint Quest would be a valiant idea.

One question regarding that however.
The dwarves originally had 7 rings, where are the remaining four then?

Aulë
04-19-2003, 11:06 PM
Destroyed by dragon-fire.

Sauron had the remaining three at the time of the War of the Ring.

Eöl
04-19-2003, 11:17 PM
The Rp sounds like fun to me, and Glorfindel, I registered and applied for a guild space.

Scatha
04-20-2003, 01:01 AM
So Sauron had gotten 3 of the rings, which you now want to start questing for? Do we have any idea which of the 7 dwarven rings were in his possession?

Maeglin
04-20-2003, 01:09 AM
I don't think the Dwarf-rings had names. And thanks for applying for a space for us Eol, as I had no idea how to go about doing that.;)

Eöl
04-20-2003, 05:09 AM
Yes, but no one really responded...:p I may have to PM Ciryaher about it. See, the thing is that I think the only guilds being formed are guilds devoted to Rping, examples being Heren Istarion and the Dark Legion. So I'm really not sure...I will talk to Cir about it.

ms Greenleaf
04-20-2003, 06:45 AM
maybe we should just put our RPPG's in either "small clans and guilds <though we are not really>) or just as someone said before (forget who) that we should just put all our Rpg's in the proper time space and add guild of elves beside them?

Good job Celebrien..

Aulë
04-20-2003, 09:32 AM
One of the Rings that Sauron help was the Ring of Thror (The one that was taken from Thrain in the pits of Dol Guldur).
No other Dwarvish Rings (to my knowledge) were given names by Tolkien.

Scatha
04-20-2003, 10:55 PM
Ok, but I hope Dengen-Goroth will like the idea of losing those rings. ;)

A joint RP like this may just be what both our guilds need, Aule.

ms Greenleaf
04-22-2003, 07:50 PM
Unfortunetly guys I am going to be basically leaving all of the tow forums forever...all I will be in from now on are the two RPG's I am currently a part of. So I name Aule my successer...(if I am allowed to do so)

Aulë
04-23-2003, 08:08 PM
Glorf, three things:

1). Are you going to finish up the Rivendell/Harad/Rhun RPG soon? And if so, I suggest you allow the players to conclude their characters part in the journey in the Rivendell thread afterwards.

2). What is happening with the joint RPG between the GoE and the GoD? I think that we've so far established that it will involve recovering the remaining 3 Dwarvish Rings of Power.

3). Ms Greenleaf told me that you should PM her if you feel like saying anything nice to her. :) (This goes for everyone).

Phenix
04-23-2003, 10:06 PM
I think that the rp betwine the both guidl chould be put on hod untill everything is fixed with the new board

Eöl
04-24-2003, 04:25 AM
Yup, a good idea Phenix. I PMed Glorfindel and still have not gotten a response, but I suggested to him that we create a new Guild Of Elves over at middle-earth-rpg; sort of an offshoot of the Guild Of Elves here. The new guild would be run entirely by Rp posts, except for a thread like this one to decide about new threads and the like. Our guild could be an Elven city, or something like that! What do you guys think? Oh and by the way, Charmiana, sorry to see you go!!! Any reason for this sudden departure?:(

Bethelarien
04-24-2003, 05:06 AM
I like the idea (of a GoE, not of Char leaving), I think it would be great fun! Am I correct in assuming that Glorf would be in charge of it over there as well? Or would someone else step in?

Eöl
04-24-2003, 03:04 PM
I don't think Glorf could manage two guilds, so possibly he either:
A. Be in charge of this one and have one or more Calaquendi run the new guild.
B. Run the new guild himself, and check up on this one every once in awhile. Leaving the leadership here to the Calaquendi.

Personally I think option A is better. We have enough Calaquendi, we won't miss two or three of them.

Bethelarien
04-24-2003, 03:10 PM
Sounds plausible to me, Eol. Good idea!

Question: when will the Rhun RP be officially done? Doesn't someone *cough*Glorfindel!*cough* need to post something in the Rivendell thread? Just out of curiosity, you understand...I'm not nagging or anything.

Scatha
04-24-2003, 03:12 PM
Basically he could run both of them, Eol.
But he just has to leave the day-to-day things, like adding members etc, to the calaquendi.

Maeglin
04-25-2003, 12:01 AM
Whoaaa thats a lot to take in at once.

1. Eol I never recieved your PM, but by coincidence I guess I have just sent you a PM concerning this topic. Yes we will be splitting off, with an RPing GoE at the RP forum, the PM was simply asking Eol to be in charge of that section as I do not think I will have time to run both of them. With of course the Calaquendi who would also be helping Eol run things over there, and I will check in on it from time to time, I do not do a great amount of RPing so I feel I should let you guys be in charge while I do whatever is left to take care of over here.

2. The Rhun RP is finished, however, Rasec and Isal have left both characters I was playing in a state where I cannot use an IC conclusion in the Rivendell thread (they sent Glorfindel and Radagast back to Valinor), so someone else from that RP will have to post the final conclusion.

3. I've made no decision on the GoE and GoD joint RP, ask the guild leader over there about it, or tell him/her to PM me about it because I will completely forget about it if I'm not reminded about it often enough. But I think for now we will leave that on hold for a while until we get everything else straightened out.

Okay thats it for now, this meeting of the council is ajourned (sp?)

Eöl
04-25-2003, 04:13 AM
Sounds like a blast! I will talk to Ciryaher and then once everything gets up and running I will pick probably two Calaquendi to help me run it. And about the GoE-GoD Rp, Glorf really is right. The mods might get crabby if we started a new Rp. However, some brainstorming is in order for characters and whatnot, so maybe an MSN meeting could be arranged? Thanks a lot for the position and for clearing everything up Glorf.:)

Bethelarien
04-25-2003, 05:09 AM
Glorf, if you don't mind, either I or Rasec could finish off the Rhun RPG. Though Rasec would probably be a better choice, he's much more eloquent than I...:D

Rasec
04-25-2003, 06:00 AM
Am I, Beth? Well, thank you, then. Though I thought I had already given a conclusion to that! But then Isal came and continued the story. LoL No problem anyway, Isal.
Just tell me, Glorfindel, what you want me to write as the real end, and I'll do so. But then I'll post a note saying that will be the real final end. :D Ok, as soon as I receive an answer from Glorfindel, I'll post the end, or he can post himself, or someone else. It's up to him. ;)

See you,
'Rasec.

Eol, I am over at MERPG a fair bit since I'm in the War RPs (as is Scatha) so I would be available to assist you.
Also, the people to contact from the GoD are myself, Swordmaster (Guild leader) and YayGollum (Came up with the storyline for the RPG). You may also want to talk to Dain Ironfoot I and Gamil Zirak.

Cir is asking all the guild leaders to post their names, guild name and info about the guild.

Are you going to run the guild on both forums or not?

ummm why do you need a new name? Why can't you just keep the name Guild of Elves?:confused:

Bethelarien
04-25-2003, 11:05 PM
It was suggested by...um, I don't remember who...that for variety we name them something different, rather than Guild of this and Guild of that, cause that gets kind of boring after a while. Oh, and you're welcome.;)

Well, maybe...um...actually, I have no clue. Something with Eldar or Eldalie or something perhaps? I'm not very good at this sort of thing.:(

Maeglin
04-26-2003, 12:40 AM

04-26-2003, 01:11 AM
Hello Elves. For those of you who don't know who I am I will introduce myself. I am the Guildleader/founder of the Guild of Dwarves. I just heard word from Aule a member in both guilds an update on this joint RPG we might do.

Well he thought it will be best if the leaders for both guilds have a discussion about this manner. I agree with him completely about this. For it seems like now only GoE are planning it while the dwarves are in the dark about it. Well I will make a thread in my guild for all members in both guilds can work this RPG out.

Maeglin
04-26-2003, 01:15 AM
Okay sounds good, thanks for telling us Swordmaster.
Okay Eol: I would like you, myself, Beth, Aule, and Scatha to post in that thread and help develop this idea further, I may not post as much in it, but I'll see if I can.;)

Eöl
04-26-2003, 01:23 AM
About the name, Guild Of Elves would be kinda boring don't you all think...That works here, but at ME RPG the whole guild is one big roleplay! It needs to have an Elvish name.

oh goodness Rasec have you never heard the joke with the igloos and Canada...I guess not . Anyways along time a go in aplce far away the first Canadian told the fist american that all Canadians lived in igloos unfortunatly because the American new how cold it was in Canada he beleived the Canadian from then an there has been the joke that all canadians live in igloos when only those far up north do and not all of them do anyways.

The End

Is Elves the Elvish word for Firstborn...?

maybe we should call it Charmiana or Celebrein or Rasec or Glorfindel or Aule or CCRGBAE
