Landroval.

Also tagging @Veron so I can try to get his butt in this interest group. What do you think about all this bud?

Understandable sir. I hope your mom recovers well! But we don't have any set days to play right now, just working month-to-month as we can. If you can make it at the end of May, if not then maybe June! Time will tell I'm sure.

No worries! If I am not around later today then feel free to contact one of the other in-game officers. I listed them in the other current thread I made yesterday. And awesome name for the human archer! But my own main is a dwarf guardian so I look forward to playing alongside yours!

Great! Maybe we can do our first monthly get together on a Saturday then. Haven't really thought that far ahead yet. But we'll try to accommodate as many people as we can. I'm not one for fast leveling either, so don't worry too much about it! Its been over 2 years and I just barely hit 75 lol. Granted that wasn't really 'trying' on my part, but still. I am all for meeting together and doing quests. I'll play fairly regularly in the evenings, especially if I know others will be on and would want to group. I just didn't want to ask anyone to 'commit' to Lotro since we all have other things going on. Some will be more available/interested in dedicating time to this game than others. But count me in if you ever want a leveling companion. That said, I am leaving today for a couple of days to a conference in Tucson, and I will not be in-game until Friday evening. If anyone needs an invite to the guild before then I know @Jae Onasi, @Elisel, @Hrom and @Daizey are all officers in the game right now and can invite. Otherwise I will get ya when I come back!

Also @Jae Onasi I have promoted your character Tirrilas to officer so you have two toons that can invite. As we become more regular we can see if we want to organize any more official 'officer team' I suppose but right now it doesn't really matter since we just out to have fun.

@Soasa what are your character names? I might be able to add you to the kinship (in-game guild) this morning if you are playing.

So far between myself, @Ellenore, @CheekyMonkey66, @Kateywumpus, @Daizey, possibly @Darnavian, @Soasa, and @Jae Onasi we have a nice core group to start. @Dalivandrian did you want to join us or are you wanting to think about it first? It'll take us months to get to Moria anyways and I don't have much past Isengard yet myself. I am sure others will be following along and joining in as word spreads as well. We could even mention it at the end of the next community meeting if we want. So lets make it official! May will begin our fellowship's journey through Middle Earth! The first 6 or 7 levels are entirely solo-instanced (a tutorial, so to speak). After that it is not very difficult to get levels 7-20 out of the way. So is getting to level 20 by the end of May reasonable? After that I figured we'd push 10 levels a month, again at our own convenience and times available. Does that officially work for everyone? And if you want help or company, post on here and I'm sure some of us can work out a few lotro questing nights for those interested.

Updated!

I wish I had bought a lifetime membership years ago Alas, I was too cheap at the time. I much regret not taking advantage of it.

Thanks Katey!! We can certainly look into utilizing that if need be. At present we do have a RoH kinship rank 10 that we started last year. We have a guild hall in Thorin's Hall Homesteads that is paid for until September 14th of this year (thanks to @Elisel). We can also move that homestead if need be, or utilize both kinships to help manage alts or something! Thanks for being so willing to help!

Totally up to you @CheekyMonkey66! It would depend on everyone's own circumstance. If you have the desire/character slot, sure! And if you want to keep that toon on this kind of schedule and play more than that, you can play your other toons! If you want to wait until our 'group' catches up to your level, that is possible too. I just want to create an environment that encourages people to come hang out in Middle Earth! And for the record, that might be the greatest gif I've ever seen in my entire life. I just about died laughing at Gandalf's expression. haha I may totally steal that and use it in my classroom at some point.

Hello Everyone! I know there has been (and still is) some interest in this game among Remnants of all divisions. I also know that it is VERY hard to get people together on a regular basis when we are all so dedicated to other pursuits (both in RL and within the community). After some thought, I've come up with a plan I'd like to propose that may help us to have a sense of community progression and chance for fun! To ensure everyone has a chance to join in, I'm proposing this on the Landroval server. The legendary server requires a sub (I think?) and I'm not a fan of those kinds of requirements on groups like these. This is all off of the top of my head, so my apologies if it looks a little chaotic. Here is a list of the 'goals' I've set when coming up with this so called 'plan': I. Find a way to have a realistic progression-style system for those interested in progressing through the game with guildies. II. Host at least one monthly event where we can play as a group. III. Include some kind of monthly end-game for those not interested in lower level content anymore. IV. Avoid interfering with our other game pursuits (be it divisional or otherwise). With that in mind, here is my proposal: I: Casual Progression Group II: Monthly Group Event III: Monthly end-game content event IV: Avoid interference I could really use some thoughts and ideas from everyone who is interested in this. I haven't done much with this interest group because it felt like the interest had gone away and people didn't really want to play. If there IS interest, like I am hearing more of lately, then perhaps this can be a simple way of creating some Lotro activity. Please, please please give your feedback and suggestions so we can have a lotro casual branch! (For the record, I do NOT have any aspirations for this to become a division. I am only seeking to create activity in respects to enjoying the game. Thats all) Tagging the old Notification List! If you are not on it, see this thread and sign up for any tagging reminders that will be found in this interest group! Lets have some fun and go adventuring in Middle Earth already!

On Landroval I have a 74 guardian (my highest level) in the Gap of Rohan, doing a lot of the dunlandings vs Rohirrim quests. I can't wait to enter Rohan and experience the horse lords!

I know @Daizey started something on the Legendary server a while back, but not sure how that was going. Been quiet on Landroval, though I will be playing quite a bit this summer (when I'm not in the mountains). I've avoided the Legendary as I was under the impression you have to be a sub in order to access it.

Has anyone been to Erebor yet? Or Dale-lands? I'm only 74 and about to start Rohan. Wondering what people think of the later parts of the game, past Mordor's expansion.

I feel 1000% the same way! Would love to get a few people on more often. So between the two of us that is a start. I know there are others who are interested but times have been difficult to organize with all the different division events going on. But I think it is doable, even with a start of two people. We'll get some activity before long, I'm sure of it!
