Of course I would love to help you out dear one.
We all started somewhere so don't feel like you need to fear anything or anyone here on the boards. We are all friends! We are all lovers of the works of the Professor and or the works of Peter Jackson!
So what can I help you with? The Talk forum is a good place to find a place to meet and introduce yourself to others who frequent these boards. The
viewtopic.php?f=24&t=105850&start=1590 Hello Thread is a good one. Many of the people there are my friends and would love to have you join us there. The TVM is another one
viewtopic.php?f=24&t=105850 Just click on the links and you are there.
Then it is a matter of finding things you are interested in such as in the Guilds forum where you can find topics of interest and join others who have the same interest as yourself.
There are forums for books, movies, both for LoTR and for others. There are places to talk politics or deeper subjects. Just look at the forums and see what you might wish to venture into and then read up on the thread as to what is going on before you post so that you know the history or the current topic.
You can also do Role Playing in the Green Dragon thread or many others there. I will warn you that in some threads they need folks to apply to join a storyline such as the Mithril Knights in the Prancing Pony forum.
I will be back to check on you tomorrow. Can you give me some information on yourself and your likes? Please if you are under 18 or do not wish to disclose your age, then do not tell me that part and be careful if you are under 18 on giving me specifics such as where you live. It is for your protection and one of the strict policies of this messageboard!
Welcome to the boards and if you have not read up on me, feel free to go to the first page of this forum and learn some stuff about me. I am a grandmother of two beautiful teenagers, an avid reader of fantasy/adventure books, I love role playing but am not in an active one at the moment, I work two jobs, met my current husband and soul mate here on the boards back in 2002. Been married now for 7 years, have a cat named China ( she is a rescue ). I love the SCA and have been active in it since January 2003. (Society of Creative Anachronism) We do the medieval camping and play, I am an archer and throw weapons. It's a lot of fun. Oh and my board name is my legal name as of February 2003.
So welcome and have fun!!! If you have any other things you need help with please post here again and I will check back! Mae Govannen, Melon!

Spring come quickly!!
