Hi everyone, herein my application for Kin membership

About you (in real-life):

Name: Mark
Age: 37
Nationality: British
Tell us a bit about yourself:
Married, 1 daughter (10 months old, doing her very best to make sure my wife and I forget what a good night's sleep is like!). I am a computer network engineer, living and working in Kent.

What is your previous LoTRO experience (including previous kinships)?
Until a year ago I was a member of a raiding Kin on the Eldar server. When I explained that, due to my daughter's imminent arrival, I would be stopping raiding and playing much more casually, I was invited to leave immediately. I stopped playing LotRO for a bit, pretty disillusioned with it all, but then decided that I didn't want to quit completely and that I would retire my 3 characters (LM, Minstrel and Champ) and start again on a new server. That was 10 months ago and it has taken me that long to get to L63 (which gives an idea of how long I get to play now).

Why do you want to join The Elders?
I enjoying playing with friends, for too long I have played my character on his own and I want to join a like minded, more mature (argh, hate that word but you know what I mean!) Kinship where I can settle and really enjoy LotRO again.

What do you plan to do with your time (e.g. raiding, levelling, questing)?
Enjoying and exploring the LotRO world/helping friends level and achieve what they want to in-game.

About your LOTRO character:

Name: Brozi
Class: Guardian
Level: 63
Trade skills: Jeweller (Supreme), Prospector (SM), Farmer (SM)

Welcome fellow Dwarf!

Well, hopefully you've worked out that we treasure both our raiders AND non-raiders! We wouldn't want to not have both with us.

Sounds like you'll fit right in - we'll try and catch up with you soon. Meanwhile, if you're on, search in the Social Panel, left-most tab, for 'Elders'. Send a tell to one of them asking them to wake up and Officer to give you an invite!

Thanks to you both

Will get in-game over the next day or so and give someone a shout.

Looking forward to meeting everyone!

Welcome Brozi I am the pro slow leveller in the kin so I hope you are not gonna come along and usurp my crown.

Welcome Brozi look forward to meeting you

Welcome to the Elders mate ^^

Welcome Brozi! It's almost laughable that you were kicked from a kinship because you had to scale down due to the birth of your daughter. I think you'll find The Elders much more accommodating to RL.

Welcome Broxi, amazed at you being asked to leave the kin. Don't worry with the Elders, they aren't very picky. You'll see what I mean when you meet them
They even let me in.

And rather fast you will notice how ill fitting that word is... Players running around and hugging you just to disappear around the corner yelling "NINJAD!!! "

No more Dwarfs in kin Hotar is enought. Not feelings hurt i hope Brozi... just some love hate feeling between me and Hotar. But please feel at home at the best kin in Middle Earth.

Welcome

Welcome Brozi.

Welcome to the kin matey

Yes, maturity just oozes out of all the orifices The Elders have.
I like this place.
