Title: We need to get more people involved on this site!!
Post by: swarmingUwithGoblins on September 28, 2008, 04:44:47 PM
Now let me tell you why. Its because i love lotr tcg and everything lotr! Thats the reason why i started to sell on ebay and to chat with all of my customers. I just want to keep the game alive. I will try and get as many of my customers on here so we can have a really active forum.

Also i want everyone to be more active. I mean come on. If new people come to this site and its dead no one is going to want to stay. I will try my best to be active. Maybe 10 or 20 posts a day :) 

I just wish there was passion for this forum. I was extemely excited when shieldmaiden told me about this site then once i got here i was a little disappointed. I love this site but we need to be more active. Granted im saying this and i only have like 100 posts but i just got here. once I tried to post as much as i could but after like 5 threads there was nothing else to post on.

So come on guys lets be more active. or maybe its just me. maybe this is just me that is seeing this. Maybe theres another part of the forum thats real active that i havent seen. if so point me in the right direction.

Sorry that this is so long and will probably get 1 reply but i just wanted to say a few things.

I try to be active, but I've got a life and a job and that takes up time.

#$&*@! i travel about every few weeks and live in sin city but I manage to find time to post. Others should too :)

Meh I dont know. I just wish lotr was popular like mtg.

Also you have 900 more posts then me so i guess i have more of a life. lol jk

What would be cool is to see is how long people have been members of this forum right underneath the post count. That would be pretty cool.

How long has this site been around anyways?

You must realize that most of my posts here were transferred from cobracards. However, Saint Lurtzy will try to be as active as he can.

See people keep talking about corba cards. I wasnt here from that time :(

I didnt know your posts were bought from that site to this site. Thats pretty cool. I wish i could travel back in time to see that site. I always hear good things about it.

Well spoken  =D>

That is the reason, why we are organizing european tournaments, to keep the game alive!  \:D/

I will do my best, and tell every player I do know, about this page.  :uh-huh:

kind regards

I am going to all the playgroups for MtG at the moment to try and sway people over to LOTR. Its hard as they know they cant get the new cards, and I'm reluctant to part with anything post-Bloodlines!

I also love the game, Elrohir we need to talk more about a European tournament.

Yeah tournies would be good. We need to do like a vintage tounrey with only the sets up to the end of the movie, Mount doom. Then i might be able to kick some butt :)   Im still trying to get as many new cards as possible so i can really compete

I love it when you are ironic. And I am a mod I never spam!

Find a post (not in the dead pile) where I have spammed

Ditto SoP. What we need is some kind of software that lets you upload a card template and add a picture, gametext, stats etc...  *:)

Problem with that GT is copyright. Not that Big D pays any attention to the game anymore, but New Line or Tolkien Enterprises may.

WoW has a nice version of this, but you'd have to find a talented programmer to make a LotR version and be willing to *ahem* bend some copyright laws.

I think the key to keeping people interested is online play and tournaments. Seems like the one Gillian was starting to set up fizzled out...
