Welcome! Here's the deal with this site
I don’t know about any other Istari but I’d really like to see the return of Isengard.
It wont be made just atm @Pallador , see why here: viewtopic.php?f=8&t=33 however the other Istari are hanging out in Rohan and Fangorn, you are welcome to join in there. As well as a OoME thread :)
Holy crap! I never thought I would see this place again. I left nearly a decade ago when the RP Golden Age was starting to wain, poked around a few years later and saw how dead it was and gave up on it. I randomly had a memory about it last night and decided to poke around to see if anyone remembered it and lo and behold, someone was thinking about it. It feels good to be back! Hello everyone!
Strange Fruit got holes in the flesh but it ain't gonn' spoil cause it never was fresh
Hello this is Nobody .I was a wizard called MacGiollaDhe a long time ago. I helped run the pub in Isilgard. Don't know if that's spelt right. It been a long time 0
Welcome, Nobody/Mac. I recall your former name, though I had left Isengard (you were close!) for pastures new, so I don't think we ever interacted. If you want to find the wizzies again, I have reason to believe they're causing trouble in search of a pub in Rohan. Clearly your skills will be very much appreciated, especially if you still have the pub keys in your pocket! :smiley10:
It's been a very long time!

OMG. I swear I had a dream sometime in the last year where the Plaza came back and NOW IT HAS. T_T This is amazing.

Thanks for the kind words everyone by the way -- would be a bit much to set about responding to everyone but rest assured you have all made me feel very warm and fuzzy

@Narv - I absolutely LOVE your Title!
This is great that you've taken the time to do this. I do hope it hangs around for more than the two week burst and also think it shouldn't be too far spread out. I'll poke about and see what all I can figure out/find here and there.
Thanks!

I may have posted something similar elsewhere but I’ll go ahead and say it again. Thank you! Thank you to the googol power. With our world in its current bleak situation The Return of the Plaza (pretty good movie title there if anyone wants to use it) could not have happened at a better time. If it lasts a week, fine. A month, fine. Until the end of the current crap storm, finer still. Whatever happens is going to happen. If it’s temporary, well at least you’ve given us this period of joy. If it lasts longer, you’ll have some happy Plazaites. Again, thank you!
Adding my gratitude for breathing life back into this place of magic and memory. I can’t begin to imagine the amount of time & effort, labor of love or not!
Wow! Hello everyone! Its been years... Thanks to Culfinwen for referring me here! I recognize lots of names here! Nice to see you all and nicely done, Narv! I feel like I've gone back in time something like fifteen years. Thank you!

Thank you so much, from the bottom of my heart. You've enabled old friends to reconnect after so many years, and brought so much joy to me in particular (and I am sure so many others) during these challenging times. Much love and gratitude.

@Narv, I might have been quietly roaming the site without saying much, but - thank you! It brings back so many good memories, and with all the people that have returned there is potential for making new ones. Definitely enjoying it, to the point where I still keep checking for new posts every so often instead of being completely focused on my usual work.
The nostalgia is hitting me hard. I remember spending so much time here as a teenager <3 A big thank you to everyone involved in resurrecting Plaza!
Thanks and welcome to you all! Hope you have / are having a nice time here
Y'all are talking about how the plaza has been gone for 2 years, but I don't think I've posted in 12. This is so rad Narv!

The recent Zoom LOTR cast reunion made me think of this place again, wow! It’s been a while... :)

@Narv You are a Narvel! Or did I mean Marvel? Probably both.
Overjoyed to see this amazing place up and running again. It's gotta be the best Tolkien forum ever.
Good luck with this project - no-one will want to see it disappear so may the Valar be with you.
