rohirwine Posted January 22, 2004 Report Share Posted January 22, 2004 I obviously wish to introduce myself here.I'm a librarian from Italy, with a deep interest in Tolkien's works, and in J.R.R.T. related gaming as well.So there are two main reasons for me to be here: as a librarian i value much every kind of free knowledge exchange, free and cohoperating project developement and so on. As a Tolkien enthusiast i'm very actracted by the subject of what is going on here.As has been outlined in the introduction of TLA, i feel that the Jakson's films (by the way, the RotK one hasn't already come out here) are beautiful films, but do not match my vision of the books, neither develope faithfully the concepts from Tolkien's works.So, here i am.HiallRohirwineP.S. By the way, are you used to sign with nicknames or real names? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rohirwine Posted January 22, 2004 Author Report Share Posted January 22, 2004 I forgot to say that i have some knowledge in database developing, i occasionally draw something decent (but i fear it isn't at the level of the sktches in the site), and obviuosly, if you need a document search or a bibliography i'm here for that purpose....Rohirwine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

av_nefardec Posted January 22, 2004 Report Share Posted January 22, 2004 Suilad, Horse-master-friend I think you'll find what we're trying to do with TLA quite to your liking, and I'm sure you'll be able to put your skills to use here The project is all about free exchange of ideas - in particular we're trying to kind of explore Tolkien's works through these means to counter the kind of mass commercialism that we are seeing due to the effects of the movies (don't get me wrong, they are great movies). For instance - many new 'fans' of Tolkien will see the movies now before reading the books, and thus will have the movie's imagery emblazoned into their mind, instead of their own unique mental image that they can offer to enrich the community experience, etc. So a large part of TLA is dedicated to exploring Tolkien's work through means more 'respectful' to the individual minds of our fans, gamers, members, etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
