@Quill Sent you a message on discord as there is no method of PMing you on here (unless that's something new that I missed in the last few weeks while I've been less active than normal :lol:

Hey all, I was thinking that after 15 pages it might be time for a new OOC thread, especially now we have a separate thread for announcements! What say you? @Eriol do you have any objection if I start up a new one?

15 Pages for a kingdom OOC thread is nothing ! :rofl: Gondor's City Hall/OOC thread is on page 17 and we've had an announcements thread for about a year besides. :tongue: Imladris has only had a separate announcement thread for a few months ...

so what you're saying is, we need to work harder at pretending like our nonsense is worth filling threads up? Challenge accepted

I think I’m saying that clearly the talent for discussing every little detail of even hypothetical possibilities of threads is where Gondor excels at unnecessary ooc posts made. That and laughing ooc at the hilarity of Miss Irma’s antics, but that is of course justifiably worthwhile in its frequency. :lol:

And here I am, adding also to the inanity of this ooc thread … share and share alike. :grin:

This absolutely is a challenge. And we have a limited amount of time to get probably the 5 missing pages back... :mwahaha:

What I'm hearing here is "John Connor, it is time." :lol: and yes I shall take this under consideration and mayhap we shall see a new down in Gondor's OOCness :lol:

HAHAha this is what happens when you make fun of elves for their lack of pages in the ooc... Gondor ends up needing a new OOC as well it's okay it's not like we don't plan the dickens out of everything we just tend to do it in discord where you can't see it so that we can surprise people participating. Honestly I"m excited to see the activity jumping up considering it's December!

while it will be harder without dozens upon dozens of "I will have a post ready for X,Y,Z threads soon and I am about to post in 1, 2, and 3 threads" I will never underestimate the urge post random nonsense that everyone seems to get a kick out of... that and Fleeg references

I mean... Quill and I are getting ready for the new Elven winter ball? So like hopefully that thread will be up in a week or two? Not sure yet on the time line for it. But definitely not quite as interesting as the random fleeganings.

I don't know some of the fleeganings can be very funny. The fleegnanigans also can be entertaining, perhaps not from the perspective of Fleeg but I mean someone has to suffer for our entertainment it might as well be the goblin. :lol:

@Fuin Elda just to double check before I jump in - for the survival RP you just posted, it's starting in Rivendell with a group of men from Forochel arriving, correct?

Hi Quill and Fuin Elda - I'm interested to RP in the Survival RP... as one of the Noldo Guard meeting the Forochel Men at the border of Imladris but Quill already posted the guests arriving at Elrond's Hall so I was wondering if I could post as a 'Few hours before..' timeline.

Hi Quill! Oh no no you did no wrong but just after reading your post (cool as btw) I thought I wanted to just write about how they got to the border hahahahaha... since Imladris is a hidden valley anyway right? :rasp:

btw, is Rin a Noldor or a Sinda Elf? So I can include her in my future posts. :whip:

Yeah that's fine if you want to do that was figuring Fuin would lead them in similar to your idea but if you want to even better. :nod:

Ok thank you sir? madam?

Btw, I have a problem. I received this error when I tried to post in the thread.

Forbidden
You don't have permission to access this resource.

Additionally, a 403 Forbidden error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.


Any idea why?

@Aranadhel That's weird! It might be a random/intermittent error- I just checked your profile and it doesn't look like there's anything strange in your permissions. Could you try again and let me know if you get the same error?

@Aranadhel I hope you and the admins can sort out that error! I've had a few saying I that I can't post to that because it doesn't exist/ and is forbidden... (Though I don't think it's that I don't have permission?) I've tried just refreshing and posting again (I live by copying my post before I hit post honestly for that reason though often just going back will work and then hitting submit again tends to clear out the permission error for me though I couldn't tell you if it's the same one. I figured it's a cookie glitch or something

Hi Moriel, yeah just tried again. Same error notification came up. Now I'm confused :shrug: Funny thing is that I can post in here. :lol:

Hmm, yeah, it definitely doesn't make much sense that you can post in one thread and not another. I just tried posting there and wasn't able to reproduce the error myself. Can you clear your cookies and cache and try again?

Yeah, me too. No idea why this is happening though. Guess I'm not meant to post RP :rasp:

I'm currently using the office's laptop which is highly encrypted :lol: Let me try again once I'm home, Moriel. :moon:

Love the posts thus far I will be getting a response up in the next week or so getting them officially in the presence of Elrond (and responding to @Arandhel as well) by the weekend, and then I'm hoping another week or two before we set out. I figure people can join part way through basically up until we get to the Carn Dum in terms of anyone wanting to join with a Dunedain/Rangers/Elven scouts to the north.

Hi Moriel! By the way before I forget I wanted to apologise for not replying to your email the other day concerning how I wasn't able to register on this new site but I figured it out finally. Thanks for replying to my initial query.

Regarding your second question I tried uploading via Imgur but I couldn't find the image upload page so I ended up on a generic site to get the code link but that turned out to be a disaster right? Since that was the reason for the 403 error.

Oh I love how you're planning this out, Fuin! Or should I call you Elda? Or FE?

Yup, hopefully more will join as I'm also waiting on the Legendary Ercassie to post sometime this week *fingers crossed*.

@Aranadhel Please call me Fuin! That's what most people call me! (That and crazy :lol: ) I know @Ercassie has a lot on her plate in terms of posting so if you need extra time Cassie, please let me know I'll hold of a few days if that's what you need but as I said the plan is to allow for people being able to join for a while even outside of Imladris.

I have of course started writing my post @Fuin Elda :winkkiss:, but if for any reason it doesn’t happen to be posted by the time you post your update, well Aran has conveniently placed me there. :googly: So feel free to assume there is another dark haired Noldo standing with Aranadhel, who simply hasn’t said anything yet. :thumbs:

@Ercassie Clearly @Aranadhel is a menace to our keyboards fortunately my new one has raised keys so liquids can't get in it and wreck it but damn is it a pain to clean between them.
