I read a lot of everyone's post & I just laughed. There is nothing wrong with hunting & fishing, it's what we do ... we are human, top of the food chain. Now for those of you that are complaining about us hunters & fisherman we have a place for you too in the tribe, you would have been put in the gatherers group where you'd pick veggies & fruit for the tribe ... point is not everyones a hunter/fisherman, so I guess it's one of those "you wouldn't understand" type of scenarios. Had that been me catching that fish I would have mounted that sucker on my wall forever preserving the fish's beauty & achievement at reaching that ripe of an age. Furthermore, Catfish last time I checked were not endangered ... so all you tree-huggers can chill out.

Hello everyone, I am a Kinship Leader on Arkenstone, I have 9 toons, one of each class all decked out with gear & they are between level 62-65. I also have 6 creeps I play in PvMP that are rank 6 or better. The reason I mention this is to give you an idea how long I have been playing the game & how much I enjoy it. I feel as though I have honestly squeezed everything I can out of this game. However, after reading the forums under landroval I realized there is a whole other community to LotRO I was not exploring.

I wouldn't mind RPing, as I have quite an imagination & love to act as I used to be in Drama & Performing Arts back in high school (many many moons ago, lol). However I have been reluctant to do so because I know how a community of like minds can be, if you dont fit in or blend into their community you will be shunned, black listed or ignored. Now after reading this article & some of the comments from readers it makes me even more paranoid about trying RP-play.

I am no lore expert so I would most likely create a character with a bio that I enjoyed & a personality that I can really get into but may not fit the lore. Like Justin, I don't know the "rules" & I don't want to disturb the balance of things on the server either. I would like to give it a try though as a change of pace or a place I can go to get away from my routine of hacking & slashing for the latest gear or completing the newest raids.

What kinships are more user friendly & by that I mean ... a RP kin that welcomes mature & willing to learn individuals such as myself? Also, is there any huge no nos I should be aware of in creating my character & characters bio?

Nice article ... thanks to all in advance that respond to my questions &/or post. :)

Ok I’m sure I will be flamed for this but whatever, it's my opinion & that's that!!!

I'm not saying what he did was right, adultery is adultery no matter if you're a celebrity or not. I guess my point is 2-fold. Point #1: Tiger was an idiot to get married in the first place. When you are as young as he is with that much money & celebrity status, there is no way you can repel the amount of "attention" that will be thrown your way daily. Okay let say he tried to be faithful in the beginning, being human in the end it's just a matter of time before the perfect piece of "temptation" shows up at the right time & BAM you fall from grace, it's human nature. So why get married when in you're in that position? But the fact he did get married brings me to my next point. Point #2: His wife or any woman for that matter that is getting married to a young, famous, successful & rich man like Tiger should "understand" a few things ... just like Chris Rock said "A man is only as faithful as his options." You guys out there in internet land can sit there & write all this holier than thou crap all you want & pass as much judgment as you like, but you aren't the one getting chased down by these hot beautiful women everywhere you go, so until you walk in his shoes don't pretend to understand his position. So the woman that decides to marry a person like Tiger must understand the position he is in & what she's marrying. Keep it real!!! Hell, they should even sign a pre-nup with a clause that allows Tiger to have some random "groupie love" from time to time. Why you may ask? BECAUSE IT'S GONNA HAPPEN ANYWAY!!! So just accept it, like it & shut the hell up!!! Enjoy the money, the status & all that but accept the price as well ... that's all I'm saying!!! (Get's off soapbox & turns on the Man Show on Comedy Central).

All B.S. aside about Kurt & Love, I really think this should be all about their daughter Frances & she should have a say even if she isn't 18 yet, she looks old enough to me to know what she wants in regard to her late father. I also agree with some of you that if indeed Love goes through with this, at least the money should go to her daughter, not charities ... I mean you can't fill in the gap left by Kurt, but you should at least make his death worth something to his daughter who grew up without him ... that's so f*cked up.

VIDA GUERRA!!! Any man with a pulse should know this woman from the pages of FHM to modeling, to appearing in music videos & now she also has a album on the market ... she's a Latin Goddess & if you think that Jennifer Lopez has an ass ... think again my friend, you obviously have not seen this woman's trunk!!!!

Regardless of what happened & how it went down fighting in the NBA or in any physical sport is going to happen, the issue that needs to be addressed is what will be done if it does happen. I don't think a no tolerance rule should be done because we are human & run on emotions & sometimes in high stress situations, our emotions might get the best of us. Now I think that there should be a 3 strike rule like they have for criminals, first offense is a fine & suspension, 2nd same but obviously will really put a dent in his finances ... 3rd well your out the league. Regarding people jumping off the benches to "help" the situation, that should be completely banned. I know from experience growing up in the Bronx, when a fight is about to go down it's not all that serious sometimes but once a crowd gets involved & you got your homies at your back, it's on!!! So whenever players jump into the mix, they too should be fined & suspended but I don't think it should count as a strike ... only the initial "riot starters" should get the strike.
