An Anniversary Surprize!!!

[MajahTR]

Yep it's me...Majah the sporadically missing!

I have been waxing nostalgic over the past few weeks about our great, clever and creative group of Tolkien's Ring and I have decided to open up an informal 7th Anniversary chat for this Saturday starting around 7am MTN time (that's prime Saturday morning cartoon viewing time by the way).

NO SPECIAL TOPICS---anything and EVERYTHING is fair game!
(But I have to admit it has been the role plays, chat notes and such that have had me laughing and crying)

What I would love to see is people posting some of their favorite memories so you can add them to this thread.

Join the Fellowship in the Prancing Pony for chat or leave a message...perhaps a poem? Share your favorite memory of belonging to Tolkien's Ring!

All you have to do is follow this link:
www.chatzy.com/goto.cgi?944206484814,[e-mail],0nwlz
Password is Bree
(You may want to check into the Chatzy link before that morning and make sure it works for you.)

If all goes well and we have enough interest, the chat may be extended and joined at various times during the day...
What's YOUR preferences???

Stay tuned for further information
Majah
(as soon as i come up with a good idea for a graphic, i will add it!)

Saturday morning I can make it!

[Vanye]

Yeah! I plan to be there! I had just been wondering if we were ever going to have another chat. Have been reading some of the old stuff that's been posted recently & it puts me in mind of the B&N Classes. How long ago was that? See You all on Sat. Vanye
Edited to correct dumb booboo!

The B&N class that started our group was in January 2002. The old MSN TR forum was created Jan. 31, 2002 and the first message thread "Welcome Friends" was posted on Feb. 2, 2002.

So this is our 7th Anniversary! That's a long time.

Vanye: While reading those old posts that we moved over here, please feel free to add more comments if something occurs to you! I plan to go back and read some of those good old studies and make some more comments (if something strikes me that needs saying) on them myself. Sadly, there are a few discussions that didn't get one reply and may need some thought put to them! ;D

I hope Desi and my computers are not too slow on Saturday. We have been having a lot of problems with our provider in the last two weeks stating that we have exceeded our download limit which slows everything up to a crawl. Desi has been on the phone with the provider and will switch our service if she has to--but that is a hassle, too. (I saved my outlook address book just in case!)

BE SURE TO COPY THE ENTIRE LINK all the way thru "Onwlz" for some reasons proboards seems to limit the number of characters in the text for links and the one Majah posted above doesn't work without the last part that isn't a bright yellow.

7 years... seems like a long time, seems just like yesterday...

[MajahTR]

it DOES seem like yesterday!!!

i have experimented and both the link from here and the old chatzy link seems to come to the same chat room.
that is good to know that even if we let the room expire again we can reactivate it.

this link should work now?

Greetings!

I've taken a peek in the chatroom already. I'm not sure if I'll actually meet you with all that time between us. If I don't, then I wish you already a great anniversary! Congratz, everyone of TR!

[Stormrider]

oh! I see what you did to get the chatroom link to work properly! instead of just typing the URL in you added the code around the link address! [url]http://www.chatzy.com/goto.cgi?944206484814,[e-mail],0nwlz[/URL]
Why didn't I think of that!

[MajahTR]

We have had a couple of hours this morning reminiscing and enjoying
each other's company sooooooooooo, we decided to resume the chat
this evening in case anyone else wishes to join in.

Plan to be in the Prancing Pony on Saturday, Jan. 31, 2009
10pm Eastern, 9pm Central, 8pm Mountain, and 7pm West Coast
See you then!
;D

We already have discussed many interesting items including our
book collections but there is so much more to talk about.
As i said before anything and everything is open for discussion.

Please try out the AddOnChatroom that is part of this forum. At the top of the webpages underneath the Tolkien's Ring banner are buttons. The Chatroom can be reached from the CHAT button all the way to the right. Also there is a Prancing Pony thread in the "Middle-Earth Community Center" forum. If you click on the Pony People picture, that will also take you to this chatroom. The AddOnChatroom has a couple of smiley emoticons and some sounds which will liven up the chat a bit.

However, you will need to have the most recent version of Java downloaded to your pc.

I hope everyone is willing to do that and try out this chatroom so we can try to move away from the Chatsy chatroom.
