T H C seems a interesting blend of humor/maturity/intelligence/community that just kinda feels like a fun place for me to dive into the LotRO experience.

Please tell a little about yourself, aside from gaming. Perhaps some
hobbies, about your work, favorite story etc.
A)
I am a waiter/banquet/party staff type person and the local AFB here and have waited on many various people including astronauts,generals,senators,govenors and the secretary of the air force. Hobbies have always included gaming ( once managed an EBGames ) and even played the pen and paper games back in the day. Always been a big fan of movies and I managed a small video store for near 7 years.
Q) Do you have any questions for us?
A)
Once the app is reviewed are we contacted via e-mail as to our approval status or ingame ( since im new to the game my toons arent really set in stone as of yet ) and is there any particular shortage of a character class thats missing in the kinship that i should maybe consider ( I havent had a chance to play many yet so may as well play something we need and see if it fits )

We have a pretty wide range of classes so play whatever is fun for you. Having fun after all is why we play games.

As for how you're contacted, you will see the approval here on the boards and the officers will generally add your toon to our friends lists and watch for you to login or if you change the character's name you can always send a tell or in-game mail to any of the officers in-game as well.

You sound like a good fit to me. I give this a .

*/agree

What server did you play EQ1 on?
I played it for about 5 years, that is why I bought the lifetime sub for this game. The money I could have saved then if EQ had a lifetime sub.

I played on Tunare and Ayonae ro in EQ1 . had a lvl 65 Druid,Cleric,Warrior,Rogue,Shaman and various lower lvls.
I quit eq1 just as they started adding the expansions that raised the lvl cap and such and added drops to trash mobs that could contend with what some people spent many weeks getting keyed for the plane of time to get.
I do kinda miss the days of 72 man raids with up 72 people waiting backup incase we need to fill or we wipe. but the time sink and the level of organization is a bit much for the modern mmo player ( myself included now ) .

Howdy Phrail,

glad to see you made it over here. I thought your app was pretty solid and give it a .

Wow, the LOTRO apps are flying in! Is it because of the expansion or something else?

from me, hope I get to play with you all some day.

Is being in a casual guild going to be a problem being that you have ye
olde raider's itch? Its my only concern here but then again I've never
really played LOTR (played the trial and liked it)

I'm currently playing eq2, I never really got into eq1.

So
tell us, do you have any hobbies outside of gaming that you'd be kind
enough to share with us? A funny story would give big kudos from me

as far as raiding, ive kinda gotten over that old hardcore raiding itch. starts to feel like work and takes too much time .
Occasional small raids with friends is more my style now.

story huh .... one day at work ( party staff at afb ) i was working a small function with a bunch of af security forces.
They just had a new self defense instructor come in and it was a party for him. 1 of the guys i know from many events got on the subjects of " who could kick who's butt, yada yada" all in good fun and very jokingly, when as i was walking by i joked to him that i could take anyone in the room ( im a 5'10 prob 130 pds skinny asian with long hair ). At that exact same moment , before anyone could reply or refute me, the new self defense instructor faints ( combination of dehydration and getting over a nasty illness he had at his old duty station with a touch of jetlag ) and i, standing in the corner with a glass of water im already pouring for him say ( quietly so only those in the conversation can hear ) "hhwwwaaahhhh" in my best bruce lee immatation . people were stunned . after we made sure the capn was ok, we told him the story ( he laughed wholeheartedly) and tells the story at parties i work.

Neat story.

Gets a from me.

from me!

Look at all these LOTRO apps! Gets a from me.
