It only recently occurred to me that there should be forums for each of the Ranking Kingdoms. A lake for the ancient Elves to hang out, a mountain refuge for Durin's folk, a hole for the Hobbits, an island for the Numenoreans, etc. Basically places made exclusively for the members of each kingdom.

Cool...but I dunno if it will work considering our small number of members... Am I the only active Gondorian btw??? I hope not...I don't want to talk to myself...
That's the entire point, to encourage members to group together. We could actually watch the Kingdoms grow. Each of the Kingdoms needs a ruler too. Like a mini-mod specifically for his/her people.
Who knows, eventually there could be cross kingdom competitions. Battles? Debates? Kingdom specific roleplay?
Just some thoughts buzzing in my head. I really think things like that would keep people's interest and spur activity. Just giving my 2 cents.

LoL You can use it now if you like, I do all the time now, but to answer your question, my work on it will be done in a few days. Then comes the tedious task of file transfer. So I'm gonna guess that it should be fully operational mid Oct.

Celethil - Your idea about Kingdom Forums..good idea and we will take it under consideration when we'll have more members. Kingdom Forums with one or two members in each just dont work. But like i said: it's a good idea.

Yes, but that is also the reason why i said that i will forever hold my allegiance to the Valar. I was just pointing out that i was/am a friend of Beleriand...

well I guess Elves are indeed surprised of the way Men behave, just as they did in the first age. You Elves never really understood why Men gave their short lives away so lightly in battle. You still probably consider it folly.
This sounds very cool. I'm not sure about it with the numbers we have now. But it seems that we are geting two or three new members a month, and I havn't noticed any members leaving. So maybe in a few months or so, this will be a reality.
I wonder how many people join the Slaves of Udun, kindom.

Would it be fair to the gondorians that the elves to have a place where to gather and have fun, while they'd probably fall into lonelyness? Whichever way, Tulkas, I will not deny that my heart desire to know what you have decided and whatever the decision may be, I'll leave with it. What say you?
Well mouth of sauron, I found the place to ask. You suggested I join a Ranking Kingdom, so where do I go to do that? I know I want to be an Elf, but where is the thread with the application for that Kingdom of the Elves?
