Looking for a Kinship? Post here.

Your name, or character name and race (if known): Yenisey (probably havent made a character yet) Name is Jack
Age: 21

Location. United Kingdom
Playstyle. Solo, group, PvE, PvP, RAIDs, casual, hardcore, end-game, RP, no RP, time limited, crafter. ( All of the above as all of these aspects have their own usage)
MMO games you’ve played:Oughhh thatll be a long list. Allods online, World of tanks, league of legends, Cabal online, Age of Wulin, Vindictus, Path of exile, War Thunder, any many many more.
Why kinships should be interested in you. In other words, why choose you and not another player. What do you offer kinships?: Well i can offer a very committed british active player. I can be helpful if needed and do "guild raids and such" as i best of all enjoy the social aspect of online gaming.
What kind of kinship you are looking for. (This one is very important for recruiters): Im looking for a kinship that would be capable of offering me newbie help and answer to my questions, not the kind that says they will help, and they barely even notice that i have a problem unless i shout it out. Im looking for kinship that is also following the ideas of voice comm.

Laid back mature VIP Founder is looking for a new home on windfola.

I maintain 9 toons, 6 of which are in Forlaw, I am master of all crafts, I enjoy solo and group play, live on the west coast U.S., my main is a mini., and have been with the same kin since beta.

I am looking for a mature mellow kin large enough to offer a lot of laid back end game play, opportunities to exercise alts. with lower level game play, and all of those things that we all enjoy as players. Feel free to contact Antar, Arrgh, Auraa. It's a slow time of year :)

My name: Gib
Character: Benven, an Elf Hunter
Age: 16
Location: Idaho, United States. I will be playing in MST.
Playstyle: Solo until I find a group of people not way ahead of me. Will sometimes do solo excursions.
MMO games played: WOW, Perfect World, Champions Online, SW: TOR, etc.
Why Kinships should be interested in me: I don't swear a lot. I am friendly. I am used to playing MMOs so I know the basic speech. Willing to learn what I don't know.
What kind of Kinship I am looking for: I would prefer a casual to hardcore. As I'm a student, I might not be able to get on every day. I need a kinship that doesn't require me to be. I need a Kinship who is friendly to people new to the game. I would prefer a smaller kinship to a gigantic one.

I was in beta and played for a while after launch but drifted away for RL issues. I have been back a few times over the years and have had fun, but not finding a place to call home I drifted away again. I'm back and want to give it a good go this time around. I have toons on riddermark but am more then willing to start on a new server(us-server). I tend to be a solo type player but like to get together with people to run the instances that are on level. I would like to learn/relearn the lv 20-60 instances and group quests. I tend to complete one area before I move on, so I do not level to fast. I like the tank/ melee roles but am willing to fill any role that is needed. I'm older in years so do not want to deal with drama and issues (I have kids and a wife that fill that role nicely). Over the years and games that I have played I tend to like the low to mid populated Kins. I tend to be a little anti-social in that I usually do not say Hi & Bye every time someone logs in and out, but I will answer questions and help with whatever people need if I can.
If it sounds like I might fit in with your group send me a message.

Iseldir, Gondorian Human
Age: 22 in RL
Brandywine Server
Location: California US

Playstyle: I generally prefer Teamplay although I have spent a great deal of time playing solo when there is no one else around and there is something I want to get done. Since my main is a Captain lvl 50, I like playing the role of support healer/buffer. I have a headset so If kinship members use skype or ventrillo or etc. then I can readily engage in communication for the sake of strategy and casual conversation.

MMO experience: Dungeons and Dragons Online, Neverwinter Online, Everquest II, APB, WoW.

I'm a lighthearted person who enjoys playing video games and am proud to call myself a nerd in all manner of Tolkien literature (one of my favorite poems is Mythopoiea). I enjoy playing support roles in MMOs, because it allows me help out my team mates which is what I enjoy doing in real life, helping people out. The kind of kinship I would ideally see myself apart of is one where my fellow members enjoy Tolkien Lore and in the spirit of that mythology, love playing with others in a cooperative kinship culture where Fun comes first and Loot Drops come second. As a kinship member, you'll regularly see me dropping hellos when I log on and will see that I enjoy helping out the kin in all ways possible. I would love to hear from any kinships who have the kind of internal culture that I'm looking for because I feel that I would be a great addition to the team.

Your name, or character name and race (if known): Not known. I do favor dwarves but I play all races.
Preferred Server: Any (EDIT)
Location: Eastern Time Zone -5
Playstyle. Solo, group, PvE, PvP, RAIDs, casual, hardcore, end-game, RP, no RP, time limited, crafter. I do it all.
Why kinships should be interested in you. In other words, why choose you and not another player. What do you offer kinships?: I'm a nerd in LOTRO, expect me to be on hours when I'm not studying.
What kind of kinship you are looking for:
"Remember when the game first came out and the land thrived with kinships that focus was on exploring, socializing, and having fun getting to know your companions? When leveling your toon and building your crafting skills was more important then end-game raids and irritating repeater quests for rep. (Why did we leave the dropped rep items idea anyways?) And the excitement of getting a house or earning your first 4 gold to buy the mount of your dreams was an accomplishment that you enjoyed because it was earned thru hard work and fellowship, not bought thru the store in a rush to be max level and ultra-powerful." Quote from Shadowdragon01

That the kin that I'm looking for! I'm more of a roleplayer in lotro. I been playing only the RP servers since I first started lotro because it had that adventure! Well lately.. I been missing the spark of the game. So here I am restarting my toons (I haven't played in a couple years) and giving it another shot!


Contact me through here (PM or Post)!

Hope to hear from that chosen kin soon.

Have you ever thought about switching servers? or are you far into your game at the moment ?

I am looking for an EU kinship, that is around GTM+1, which i think is 1 hour ahead of England time (or the opposite.)

I plan to roll a new character on any server...i want to re-experience the game again and meet new people :)

I speak english and i got a mic. Not sure what else to add.

Your name, or character name and race (if known): Well my name here is Slapacookie, But my game name is Sam Mckhern

Age: (some kinships have real life age limits): 19

Preferred server(s), if any. (This is not needed, just for kinship info.): Any server I am a new player joining, I just need help learning the ropes of the game.

Location. (Timezone preferences if any, state/country, etc.): United States, Pacific Time Zone

Playstyle. (Solo, group, PvE, PvP, RAIDs, casual, hardcore, end-game, RP, no RP, time limited, crafter, “I don’t know, I’m new to this kind of game”, etc.): My playstyle is not one thing it would be PvP, group, Crafter and Roleplay.

MMO games you’ve played: This is to long of a list but ill list a few: Fallen earth, World Of Warcraft, Allods Online, Wurm Online, Xyson, Tera the list can go further but these are the main ones that i stuck with for a couple years.

Why kinships should be interested in you. In other words, why choose you and not another player. What do you offer kinships?: I am a social kind of person, unlike some people who play I like to talk with people about the game or real life stuff, I do not play games to just get mad and cuss at people when I dont get my way so you can expect that Ill be mature and not bring drama into the kinship. I am a pretty hardcore gamer so if I am into the game I will play like 15 hours a day so if anyone needs help i can help them or basically just expect me to be on alot. I do not know if this really answers the question but if you have any more just message me. Also if you are a Roleplaying kinship I love rp its kinda like a second language for me I have roleplayed for about 3 years and love it, I do not need to rp in games but I will and trust me you will have fun roleplaying with me.:)

What kind of kinship you are looking for. (This one is very important for recruiters):Well I would like to join a kinship that can be social because I play games not only to have fun but to meet new people, I love a social atmosphere in whatever im joining, Either it be teamspeak/ventrilo/ raidcall/ or even skype. I would just like a kinship to actually communicate via headset which eachother. Also one that has more Adults in it, not saying it cant have younger ones but just would prefer more adults then teens and children. And well one that is active and not one that shuts down like 1 month after I join the game.

First, I speak spanish (native), some english and a bit of french. I'm a handsome elf with an enormous spear, and a shield. I'm lvl 34 now and I want to do some skirmishes, raids and that kind of stuff. I'm looking for a spanish kinship mainly, but I could accept any good offering :)

I was born to give love and good breakfasts. That's what my mother thinks... :)

Character name: Yngriel
Level: 14
Race: Elf (minstrel)
Server: Landroval
Age: 25
Location: GMT+1, Norway
Playstyle: PVE, raids, groups/missions. I have a casual playstyle, but I like to get involved and contribute to my org/guild/kinship.
MMO games you’ve played: Anarchy Online and The Secret World
"What do you offer kinships?": I'm an easy going, optimistic person who likes to be social and help others. I've been playing MMOs for years, and I understand how an organization works IG and learn quickly.
"What kind of kinship you are looking for. (This one is very important for recruiters)": I'm looking for a newbie-friendly kinship, where people do missions together and are not too competetive and obsessed about their gear, if you know what I mean. I'd be very grateful if someone wanted to mentor me for a wee bit! :)

Age: 23
Location: East US
Server: Melendor (but will switch servers for the right kin, this server seems void of quality kinships)
Class: Champion (but I can play any class, MMO experience listed below)
Level: 85, Eastment WeaponCrafter Half way through master of the guild rep
Start date: 25th of July, so about 5 weeks ago, of the instances I've ran they seem to come rather naturally to me
MMO Experience: EQ1, EQ2, 5 years of Dark Age of Camelot primarily melee dps/tanking but also had a caster and a pet class all max levels, 3 months dps/tanking the Star Wars MMO, Guild Wars 1 briefly, Guild Wars 2, 3 years WoW on and off between expansions playing a Druid Tank/DPS and a Mage

- I hit 85 in less than a month, primarily in Skirmishes because I found it to be the best way to learn my class, I'm looking for a kinship that does PvMP runs, Instances, and raids. I play 4+ hours daily (no, not an elitist, I help casuals the best I can) and will download any VOIP the kinship uses. I'm currently making up my virtues I bypassed by skirmishing but am almost done and at a loss to get the good gear with the instance finder never queing and the only kins that run things not recruiting. I will transfer servers if needed.. I really like this game but I find myself at a stopping point being unable to get the marks or groups to continue.

So PLEASE if you have a kin that does run these different aspects of the game, I'd like to join. I don't complain if I'm not in the starting line-up, I just want to be able to be with a group of people to ahve fun with and progress.

Your name, or character name and race (if known): Geseb Elf Hunter/Lizzora Woman Warden
Age: 23
Preferred server(s), if any: Dwarrowdelf
Location: US Central, but not too concerned about when people are online
Playstyle: Solo, RP, instances, raids
MMO games you’ve played: Most of the ones out there. I'd have a long list to post. Lets just say I had cool enough parents who let me start with Runescape and YPP when I was 13-14 years old ;)
Why kinships should be interested in you. In other words, why choose you and not another player. What do you offer kinships?: I'm fun to play with, I do my best to help others, and I enjoy farming. Everyone loves a farmer.
What kind of kinship you are looking for: I'm looking for a RP social guild that I can solo in, and make a group of friends. I'm in college, so I'm not interested in a kin that plans to raid 3 times a week. I prefer RP just because it adds a little flavor to things. While ideally, it'd be RP at all times with a separate channel for OOC, I'll take what I can find in the RP department ;) And if your guild interests me even if there arn't RP events, I'm still open to hearing from you!!!

If your still looking for a casual kin and willing to transfer to Gilrain server then Unity might be what your looking for. We play in european time zone with lots of people from Gmt like Yourself . You can check ous out at www.unity-guild.com or in the Gilrain subforums

My name: Rob
Character: Beebo Peatfingers, Shire Brewmaster (Hobbit Burg, 56 and leveling. LOVING Moria!)
Server: Brandywine
Age: 39
Location: Florida, EST
Playstyle: Fun.
MMO games played: WoW, Rift, That last Star Wars MMO. Countless others from eons ago.
Why Kinships should be interested in me: I like to research and test my character, and I'm usually one of the better players in groups: I pay attention, I don't have an ego, I like improving my character but I also get fulfillment from helping other people improve their characters too.

I'm playing this game casually - I travel for work and don't have the time or energy to be a consistent contributor. However, if there is a raid going on, I'd be a great sub for someone who IS consistent but can't make it.

I'm looking for a decent size, active kinship. Nothing fancy, cool players that I can group with is all. Don't expect me on voice too often, however for raids (if I go), I'd make sure I was on.

Your name, or character name and race (if known): Erisaal-Melendor main so far but have a few on different servers.

Age: 37

Location. (Timezone preferences if any, state/country, etc.): GMT Utah

Server: Willing to reroll figuring I just started 5 days ago.

Playstyle:: Level solo, but love grouping for group instances/raids etc.

Why kinships should be interested in you: New Player here but have almost 10 years into games like Rubies of Eventide, WoW, Rift, Star Wars Galaxies and Old Republic, Terra, Aion, etc. Great at group play and I like challenging gameplay.

What kind of kinship you are looking for: An adult based, fun, Kinship. Not hardcore, but progressive, even if you are dying 10 times on an encounter I like learning with the people I play with, it makes for a more cohesive group. Not interested in kinships that base membership soley off of stats or dps numbers. I play for fun. this is not a job, it is a game.

Age: 40

Preferred server: Arkenstone

Location: PST

Playstyle: Presently I am enjoying this game as a solo players, however I am look forward to group events; which is also the reason I play a MMORPG. When I get higher level I would like to get into RAIDS and DUNGEONS with my kinship.

MMO games you’ve played: I've played all major MMORPGs at least once. I quit because of either the community or I get tired of the grind in games.

Why kinships should be interested in you: I am a very dedicated, and loyal players and I will support my guild as they support me.

What kind of kinship you are looking for: I am looking for a large activity guild, and not just in numbers of members, but actual activity. A guild can call themselves a level 10 kin and only have one active member with a lot of ghosts; that is not the kind of kin I am looking for. The rest is the feeling the new member has with the current members, and vice-versa of that.

Name : Eluveitiea( RL Ryn)
Age: 19
Playstyle: Small groups or solo, really social.

Past Games: WoW, GW2, Linaege 2, GW, Neverwinter, Tera, Firefall

Looking for a good kinship that is kind and like a family :)

Age: Going on 24
Preferred server(s), if any. (This is not needed, just for kinship info.): Any US, I've already an 85 and 4x 15-50's on Firefoot, smaller servers are preferable but not required

Why kinships should be interested in you. In other words, why choose you and not another player. What do you offer kinships?: I'm laid back and a natural listener.
What kind of kinship you are looking for. (This one is very important for recruiters): A kin that does raids and group stuff at intended level. Basically I missed my opportunity to play the game as it was new, and would like to do so. What I mean is I would like to XP disable at 50 and do Rift to get loot, do the same at 65 and 75 and eventually 85. Not looking to rush content, want to experience older content as if it was the newest stuff. The reason I got into this game was watching a youtube of Rift and ToO and thinking wow thats so cool. But so far in my 2 years I've yet to see a Rift and rarely a ToO nowadays, much less people doing those at level and not just rolling it with 85's. Hoping a tortoise kin is out there.

Hello everybody, as you can obviously tell, i'm looking for a kinship to join. I am currently a level 33 elf hunter with an in-game name of Caelonna. I am currently playing on the Elendilmir server. I am 23 years of age and usually play between 2 and 4 hours a day during the week somewhere between 5 and 11pm central standard time. My play style varies; I play solo, group, raid, pve, and crafter mainly. I don't really get into pvp, but i'm always a casual gamer. I figure I play a game to have fun, not get all revved up over it. Got enough things to get upset about in real life, so no sense in getting that way in a fun gaming environment. I've played many mmo's over the years varying from text-based to turn based, to real time strategy. Some of the games I've played include the following, outwar, crowns of power, atlantica online, wizard101, eternal duel, along with many others. I've fulfilled many roles from straight member, raid manager, guild leader, forums manager, member control, along with a few others, so I perform quite well in all capacities as required of me. I'm looking for a kinship that is active, which to me means that there are almost always members on, members frequently join together to play together, and the kinship raids when possible. So for all you kinship higher-ups reading this, I can bring a lot to the table no matter where I stand in the guild.

Hello my human hunters name is Denorel and my Elf Rune keeper is Maruleb and at the moment they are on Laurelin.
In real life I am 38 and live in the Netherlands. I prefer a similar timezone.
My playstyle is solo, group, PvE, light RP, crafter, exploring, decorating my house.
The MMO games I have played in the past are GW2, WoW, SWTOR, EVE online. Where wow have been the longest (about 6-7 years)
What I look for in a kin is a mature casual social kin where people can do what they want and not forced into anything. Where having fun is the main part. What I like is grouping up with people around the same level and do dungeons (instances) or other group quest but also just solo and do my own thing. Where people can talk about anything in kinchat. Where there are group activities on all levels.
What I like is to achieve things in the game by playing it and not to buy my things in store.
I think there is a difference between helping out someone and boosting. I feel you don't learn to play your class if you get boosted all the way and when endgame hits you go like... ehm.... what does this button do?
In wow I did raids with a awesome guild! Where the moto was: We wipe in style. This does not mean you didn't need to learn how it all worked but we where not hardcore either. We where having fun on ventrilo while doing the raid. Basicly a laid back guild that I loved! And often we where on ventrilo just to chat wit each-other while playing the game and doing our own stuff.
So ehm... yeah I think that is about it. So a mature, casual, social, laid back kin would be the key words I think.

Hope to hear from a kin soon.
In the meanwhile, have fun gaming :D

Your name, or character name and race (if known): Beldanath - Human - Captain (85)

Age: 28

Preferred server(s), if any: Brandywine

Location: EST (Raleigh NC)

Playstyle: Group ANYTHING. I play MMO's for community and having people to do things with. Solo in an MMO kills my soul and leads me to quit for months at a time. I will do instance runs, group grind quests and leveling, group pvp, raiding...anything as long as there are people there with me hanging out on vent/ts/mumble.

MMO games you’ve played: FFXI, WoW, Warhammer, Darkfall, etc etc etc...

Why kinships should be interested in you. In other words, why choose you and not another player. What do you offer kinships?: I am a mature, fun and helpful person who likes to have fun and most importantly likes to be a part of something. Community is very important to me. I love to hang out on Ventrilo for hours and spend time with people as we play the same game and get things done!

What kind of kinship you are looking for: Organized, friendly, active. Interested in helping, exploring and doing all that LOTRO has to offer. Variety. I want the kin to have trips to the Ettenmoors once a week, but also raid consistently as well as have people on who want to run instances for deeds and gear. I am getting married in 23 days so it also has to be a place that understands that RL comes first and sometimes you can't make it to a raid because your wife wants to watch some netflix that night or w/e. I would also like a place where I feel like I can get a group of a few people and say, "Hey lets level other classes and set up a once a week group that goes around and hammers out quests!" Basically I want the perfect kin :)

Thanks!
Bel

P.S. Feel free to msg me in game or on the forums if you are interested or want to link me to your website!

What kind of kinship you are looking for. (This one is very important for recruiters): A Kinship for older folks like me who like interacting, chating, helping out and love Tolkien!

Hi! I am the biggest MMO newb on here. I only started playing this game because I am taking a coursera.org class (Online Games: Literature, New Media, and Narrative, taught by Jay Clayton.) Joining a kinship is part of the required assignment for next week so I need to find a kin that would be open to a very underranked (level 7) lore-master Elf that doesn't even know the lay of the land yet.
Age: 37
Preferred server(s), if any. (This is not needed, just for kinship info.): ??
Location. CDT, central Illinois
Playstyle.: I usually play console FPS games so I do not exactly know how to answer this.
MMO games you’ve played: none!
Why kinships should be interested in you: Because I can tell you about a free college-level class that includes playing this game as homework!! (Oh, and I would love a chance to discuss play styles with players who actually know how to play rather than just reading through all the forums!)

Hi I'm currently in An Unexpected Kinship on Imladris, had great times but the server and kinship activity has stagnated badly since Rohan.

Your name, or character name and race (if known): Holtinga, Hunter lvl 84

Age:18

Preferred server(s), if any. (This is not needed, just for kinship info.): Imladris, or Brandywine (considering restarting or transferring there)

Location/Timezone: New Zealand, but very flexible playing times

Playstyle: I can play solo for questing but I need to be able to easily find group things, anything.....raids, instances, skirmishes, since the collapse of my kin and low activity on my server I have quit the game for a while since it feels like an offline rpg game most of the time.

MMO games: LOTRO, and if it counts, World of Tanks

Why kinships should be interested in you. In other words, why choose you and not another player. What do you offer kinships?: I have played this game for quite a while, done plenty of raids/group play and was in a fantastic kin for at least 2 years. Have a lvl 61 Warden on the same server as well. (Aluminium is the name). I'm very keen on instances or anything social.


What kind of kinship you are looking for. (This one is very important for recruiters): I prefer a large/medium sized kin but most importantly an active one, doesn't matter if you have 30 pages of members if only 5 are online at any given time. I prefer one that does raiding of any sort (regular or casual) and is able to help with crafting.

:cool: Hi, I am new to this game and to mmorpgs as a game class. I am hoping to join a helpful kinship. My character is a thief human, if that is important. About myself, like I said, I'm a new gamer, female, 28, residing in Taiwan. I'm mainly interested in the story aspect of the game, so I'd like to find some like minded kin.

Hello, I'm LOTRO newcommer looking for some kin on Gladden. My character Lucilann is a human champion of dales. I'm most interested in roleplay and stories, but for start I will be glad for whichever society that can adopt me and teach me a few trick.

Hello! My name is Alex and I'm reaaaaally confused about everything going on in this game. So, I'm looking for an easy-going, casual kinship, that could help me level up and develop crafting skills.

Character name and race: Andergath, elf lore-master, level 8 atm

Age: 18 years old

Preferred server: Crickhollow

Location. (Timezone preferences if any, state/country, etc.): Currently in Romania, which is GMT+2

Playstyle: I guess time limited, casual, no RP and whichever group or solo works with me.

MMO games you’ve played: none, which leads to my current state of confusion.

Why kinships should be interested in you. In other words, why choose you and not another player. What do you offer kinships?: Even though I might not possess the knowledge to help people with things, I will most certainly try. I will be active for at most 2-3 hours/day, unfortunately. Also, I am friendly and determined to learn everything there is to learn about this wonderful game.

What kind of kinship you are looking for: I must repeat myself, but then again, I am trying to make a point. I am trying to find a casual, well organised and friendly kinship who can deal with epic fails when it comes to such things. I guess a low-level, just starting kinship would be the best for me.

Thanks! (:

I'm new to LOTRO and I only have a little experience in the game.

Hi! I'm an experienced gamer, but new to MMOs. I'm looking for a kinship that would bear with me while I learn what's what in LOTRO, answer a few questions and maybe sometime introduce me to raids.
Character info: Yeffe, lvl 18, Guardian dwarf
Preferred server: Gladden
Location: Poland (but I'm online at different times during the day)

I'm a pretty mature player, been playing for a while, although I have been gone a long time. I'm a level 36 guardian; not super high level but willing to help any new players that need it.

Character name and race: Andergath, elf lore-master, level 8 atm

Age: 18 years old

Preferred server: Crickhollow

Location. (Timezone preferences if any, state/country, etc.): Currently in Romania, which is GMT+2

Playstyle: I guess time limited, casual, no RP and whichever group or solo works with me.

MMO games you’ve played: none, which leads to my current state of confusion.

Why kinships should be interested in you. In other words, why choose you and not another player. What do you offer kinships?: Even though I might not possess the knowledge to help people with things, I will most certainly try. I will be active for at most 2-3 hours/day, unfortunately. Also, I am friendly and determined to learn everything there is to learn about this wonderful game.

What kind of kinship you are looking for: I must repeat myself, but then again, I am trying to make a point. I am trying to find a casual, well organised and friendly kinship who can deal with epic fails when it comes to such things. I guess a low-level, just starting kinship would be the best for me.

Thanks! (:

Hallo,

Suche ein Zuhause auf Maiar. Spiele LOTRO seit 1 Jahr mit 2 accounts. Ich bin kein Powerlevler sondern versuche soviel Content wie möglich auf meinem Weg zum Endgame mitzunehmen, deshalb ist mein höchster char auch erst 39 (Captain).

Ich habe Familie und einen Job, bin daher nicht 24/7 online! Ich mache viel solo, allerdings vermisse ich zunehmend das gemeinsame Erkunden von Instanzen mit netten Mitspielern. Habe aus früheren Zeiten genug MMO-Erfahrung.

Meine Wunsch Sippe könnte so ausssehen:
- geringer Anteil an Spielern mit Pickeln und Zahnspange
- genügend aktive Alts im Low-to-Mid-Bereich
- keine 2 Mann-Sippe oder ähnliches

Falls Interesse besteht, könnt ihr mich per PM oder Ingame unter einem meiner Chars erreichen.

Gamgalohr (lvl32 Minstrel)
Phideas (lvl 39 Captain)

Bis dann und Grüsse
Sirius

Hi there!
I'm Corisande (Cor), a level 13 Hobbit hunter. I am on the Meneldor server.

I'm 22.

I live in the Pacific Northwest, U.S. When I have classes I play LOTRO at night and when I have off days...well, I'll play as long as I can.

I have played Runescape, Star Wars: Old Republic, and many video games. I have only been playing LOTRO for a few months. I have a level 23 Elven Lore-Master on Nimrodel who is in "We Fight for Food."

I am looking for a fun and easy going group. I like to ask for help with difficult quests and crafting and to help others. I think it's fun to attempt quests far above my level. I don't have much of a social life outside of school, so I would love the opportunity to just hang out and chat with people. I don't much care what size the group is.

I love RPGs and spent several years on CoE and HEX. I have written fanfiction for as long as I can remember. I am a geek, book lover, and a creative soul. I remember being enthralled with The Hobbit and obsessed with Star Wars at a very young age. You might be interested (or not) to know that I am half way through a Criminal Justice AAS and I did musical theatre for eight years. As you can see, I take pride in experiencing all the oddities and joys of life. But I wish I was in Middle Earth.

I look forward to hearing from you and joining a kinship!

Thanks!! :D

I'm looking planning on starting a brand new character and I'm looking for a friendly, social kinship with mostly New Zealand Players.

I'm 21 (in case you have an age restriction) and will play on any server (cos i don't have a char yet :P)

I prefer socialising and role play over hardcore fighting but am willing to try different things.

Hopefully your friend

Unknown :P (Rialas, main,)

P.S I have played almost every MMO out there .... available in NZ of course

I have been playing MMOs since 1998 when I started with UO. I am a mature player that looks for other mature players to game with. I have been and enjoy playing End-Game and raids. I am a very methodical player and love the challenge of progression. However, I understand that one person doesn't make a Kin. I enjoy and do help lower level players level so that they can also play in the higher levels. I am looking for a Kin that organized and active. MMOs I have played.. Lets see, UO, EQ, EQ2, LOTRO, Rift, DAOC, Conan, FF14, and Eve. Of those I was, when I stopped playing them, at full clear of all content in EQ, Rift (killed Regulos), DAOC, and almost LOTRO. I think I had one dungeon left.

Please IM me if I would be a good fit for the Kinship.

Age 42 Name Ian Location – Gloucestershire UK Server – Currently Crickhollow But negotiable


Current Toons Champion lvl 34 Hunter Lvl 27 Rune Keeper Lvl 17 Warden Lvl 15 and Guardian Lvl 12 although Guardian will be dropped.

Play Style – Solo, Pve, Group, Casual, Crafter, Possibly End Game (Eventually)

About Me – Spent 5 years playing WoW but became bored with it and too easy to lvl fast, I wanted a game to take my time to explore without feeling pressured to get to max level asap. Done a few solo skirmishes and looking to learn this game inside out. Not too sure which toon I will concentrate on yet as like different things on each of them.

Although relatively new to LOTRO I do like to help people where possible wether with questlines, crafting etc but we are all here to enjoy the game and I like to think that we can all do that.

The kinship I am looking for would need to be open to new players (noob such a bad word), quite active, friendly, do things with Kin (events etc) and give sound advice when asked. Not a hardcore Kinship just a casual to semi serious for now.

If you think I may be suited to your kinship feel free to message me on here as unsure which toon I will be on. Currently playing my Warden Hansuil.

Thanks for reading.

Hi there, my name is Azaryah. I am a lvl 85 Hunter looking for a decent end game guild that doesn't mind someone who may not have the gear but knows how to make the best of what little he has, that makes having FUN a priority over being the best, though I definitely have a competitive nature that desires to be part of the best. I would prefer if the majority of the guilds members are Eastern or Central timezone. If you think you'd be interested, IM me, or send a me a tell or letter in-game. I look forward to hearing and playing with y'all.

Looking for a Kinship on Brandywine.

Name of characters: Ellishandra (LM 60), Nichievo (RM 58), Cheli (HN 55), Aldarrius (CP 42), Dinwiddie (CH 33), Phinaglin (BU 22) and a 25th level Hunter whose name escapes me at the moment. Several were highly-skilled crafters.

Age: 50

Location: Alabama, United States (central time)

Playstyle: prefer to group whenever possible for the social interaction, solo if I must. I tend to play support classes, usually healers/buffers.

MMOs played: Neverwinter Nights on AOL, Everquest (twice), Diablo, Diablo II Guild Wars, Everquest 2, World of Warcraft, Dark Age of Camelot (twice), Lord of the Rings Online (twice), Dungeons and Dragons Online

Assorted Information: I played LotRO for almost two years and am returning now because of the upcoming expansion. I am currently a member of a Kinship (Shades of Twilight, but it is almost completely inactive now, so there is really nothing to prevent me from joining a more active Kinship. However, as I've been away from the game for almost three years, I have a great deal of learning to do about the changes that have been made to the game. A Kinship that invites me will be getting a dedicated, co-operative and team-oriented player to be sure, but one that needs to learn what is almost an entirely new game and for that I'll need their patience. Ideally, the Kinship would have characters in all level ranges for ease of grouping, though I am not so tied to any one character that I would not swap in order to fill a needed class slot.

Please feel free to contact me in-game either by chat if you happen to catch me on or by in-game mail.

Thank you for reading, and see you in the game!

Looking for a socialable Kinship (people that actually talk to each other and from time to time group up for instances)

Howdy Kinship Recruiters

I'm on dwarrowdelf with a few chars no higher than ~ 35th level. I seem to be hitting a spot on or near 30th level and find it hard to stay motivated on my own.

My Name, Rich, current active Character Gilianna, currently 33lvl Elven Hunter.

Age: 44 years young.

Server Dwarrowdelf.

Location. Canada, Southern Ontario, Eastern Time zone. Playtimes weekends anytime, most evenings. After ~6pm EST.

Playstyle: Mostly solo so far, interested in groups but worried I'll let me peeps down. I figure a good kinship will help me find groups that understand.

MMO experience: DDO on/off for ~5 years where I was part of perfect guild on Cannith - The Guild of Calamitous Intent. A great group perfect for me. But I lost interest in the game.

Other gaming history - P & P D&D and tabletop board games. Been a PC gamer since MS DOS-Days.

Why kinships should be interested in me? I'm an old school gamer eager to please but have no patience for rudeness. There are no stupid questions but I've asked a few in my day. I get that real life can intrude into a game and have mountains of patience while spouses and kids are handled. Wife Agro is the worst sort and should be handled with utmost care. We have 2 kids - young teens. We played DDO together but they aren't that interested in LOTRO leaving Pops by myself.

What kind of kinship am I looking for: I need a guild with active forums and good for newbs with an active lower-level character base. I've played on and off for a few years but this is the most time I've spent 'into' the game and starting to see that I'm missing out on Fellowships, skirmishes, instances etc and have a lot to learn in those areas. No Drama.... Sad that I even have to mention it... drama is for the younger set.

That's all I have. See you in game.

Why kinships should be interested in you. In other words, why choose you and not another player. What do you offer kinships?:Older gamer not interested in drama. I enjoy group play even though I have not done alot of it in LOTRO.
What kind of kinship you are looking for. (This one is very important for recruiters): Active no drama guild with a solid group of players. I have pre-purchased Helms Deeps and am a monthly subscriber. I was in a Kin at launch called Kingmakers but since then its been solo questing.

Character/s: Graye (L50 Elven Hunter) / Dulcet (L31 Hobbit Minstrel)
Age: 22
Server: Crickhollow
Location: Sacramento, California, USA
Playtime: 8:00 PM to 4:00 AM (20:00 to 4:00) PST/UTC-8

Playstyle: Primarily solo in PvE, although I find small group play (2 to 6 players) quite enjoyable. Crafting is integral, often demanding a significant portion of my time in gathering materials alone; I am presently a Farmer/Forester/Woodworker (Woodsman) with proficiencies of Apprentice/Westfold/Supreme. I am open to RP (and have read all of Tolkien's books, including the Silmarillion), though I have never gone out of my way to engage nor instigate such and by no means consider myself a "hardcore" player despite the often extended length of my sessions. PvP holds scant appeal, as does raiding, although short skirmishes and instance-based quests are acceptable. I genuinely enjoy the festivities and social events hosted by the developers and often spend time aiding low-level players in the starter zone.

LOTRO History: I began playing Lord of the Rings Online roughly a month or so after it went Free-to-Play, yet found my interest diminishing following a glut of repeated deaths and the dissolution of my longtime guild, with whom I had played several other games. A number of my friends from the guild stuck around, yet most ultimately migrated to other titles and I quit in turn when real-world concerns became more pressing (primarily school and personal-health issues). I returned to the game just last week, after reading a thread on MMORPG.com that detailed some upcoming changes to the combat and have since revived my adoration for Middle Earth.

MMOs Played: ...just about everything. From WoW to City of Heroes, FreeRealms and Ultima Online, Age of Conan, Fallen Earth, EdenEternal, Rift, Wurm Online, MapleStory, Runescape, SMTOnline, Anarchy Online... etc, etc, etc. If you can name it, I've likely played it.

What I Offer: Experience, a willingness to lend a hand and an occasionally dry, even acerbic wit.

What I'm Looking For: An active group of players, open to aiding lower-leveled members progress and patient with those who are not in a rush to reach endgame content. I'd prefer to avoid any kinship that suffers from bouts of "drama" or politics, and am decidedly not prone to inciting any, have scant tolerance for excessive vulgarity and extends a certain degree of consideration to all players. Kinship housing is not required, nor is a particularly large membership, a website/forum or any of the other amenities associated with organized guilds. Above all, I would truly enjoy finding a kinship that respects me even if my tendency is to be the "quiet guy" in the corner of the room or my proclivities push me to play the lone wolf for extended periods of time.


EDIT: Presently a recruit, and hopefully future member, in Second Breakfast. Thank you for the many responses and to Rosalie in particular for the advice.

Asmriel - Race of Men(Female) - First real Lotro character, as i just recently started playing.

Age: 19
Toronto, Canada EST (late) PST is also fine.
Currently on BrandywineLocation.

I usually play solo or sometimes in a group if there is a friend available to quests or what not together. I've never tried RP, but i am open to the idea and would definitely be interested.

I used to play Runescape and Maplestory some 4-5 years ago. Played GW2 for about month. Been playing League for about 3 or so years. Still do sometimes.

I've never really experienced a MMO with a guild (Kin). Usually played solo and never took any initiative in guild activities or even sought out a active guild. But i would really like to experience LOTRO differently and really enjoy my time in Middle Earth.

What I’m Looking For: Mature active players that share my affinity for LOTRO. I’m looking for a Kinship that can fulfill my desire to participate in Raids and Instances for the high end content. It would be helpful if said Kinship was also in my time zone, but that is not a must.

Greetings ALL.

I am looking to join a kinship on the Evernight server.

My character is a 19 hobbit robber named Gormadinacar. I have many years under my belt with other MMO's. I am on after 2am EST most days. Look me up.

Thanks
Gorm

Character Name:

To be decided

Age:

18 (very mature, competitive gamer)

Location:

Massachusetts, United States

Preferred Server:

ANY (will choose the server based on the Kinship)

Main Character Class:

Most likely Guardian

Play style:

• Competitive Aspect: I play to win/accomplish any and all aspects of LOTRO. I Play to try and become the best/as efficient as possible with my class.
• Casual Aspect: I want to be apart of a kinship that loves to be competitive in raids, instances, and PVP, while also being fun and casual with each other, like family.

Previous MMOs played:

• Runescape
• TERA
• LOTRO (see additional information)

What I'm looking for in a Kinship

• Activity - Having a large number of players on at once for most of the time.
• Sociable Members - Having the ability to enjoy the company of my kin-mates just by talking to them in Kin chat, Kin mates that like to joke around with you, and like for you to joke around with them. Large activity in the Kin chat is definitely wanted, I would prefer not to in a kin where a majority of the time nobody talks in the kin chat, and when they do, it's to sell or buy something, or they need help with something.
• Willingness to get involved - Kin-mates that are willing to get involved and help others, and not always do the things that would benefit them.

What I bring to the Table

• Attitude - I am very competitive in that I like to achieve everything there is to be achieved in the games I play, I like to win, and I like to raid a lot.
• Sociable - I love to make friends, I love to interact with my kin-mates, I will think of everyone as family in that I will always be there for anything and everything, whether it be in-game or IRL.
• Knowledge - I played a lot of LOTRO, my favorite MMO ever. I loved every second of when I played LOTRO. I made a lot of characters, and managed to get one of them to 75 (max) with the rest of them retiring usually around levels 40-45.
• Helpful - I love to help others with anything and everything. There will never be a time where I'm too busy to help a fellow kin-mate out.
• Specialty - Because of the very large amount of characters I've created and played, I used to be known as being a good deed-grinder. With all of my characters, I always made sure they were up-to-date with their virtues at all times. However, I also think of gaining virtues as an achievement to accomplish in the game, so I would always end up doing all of the deeds as I went with my all of my characters. I've been asked a lot about the best methods and tricks to help hasten this grinding process, though in all honesty I love every second of doing it, and I also love helping others grind for deeds, or even better - grinding the same deeds with others who need them.

Additional Information:

Played LOTRO for many years on Silverlode, stopped playing for a time and lost my account information. I want to start completely fresh on a server, I do have a lot of knowledge up until the level 75 content. I love every aspect of LOTRO and am excited to start again. However, I will not begin until I find a Kinship that I know will be my new family, it doesn't matter what server the Kinship is on. I hope to find my home very soon and begin my journey once again.

Hi, my name is Marcos, i'm 20 years old. Currently, i play on Vylia server with my girlfriend. But i can change the server at any moment. I'm from Brazil.
I play most of time on solo or group RAIDs. I have that acount from a long time, and have another abandoned character (like an elf lore-master lvl 31). Beyod LOTRO, i play WoW and, sometimes, DOTA 2.
I stayed away from LOTRO for a long time because of college, but now I'm back. I really love this game, and spend much time online, enjoying all the resources of the game. I have experience with most of the features.

Yes I like crafting I use to play SWG and I love crafting. LOTR is not as good as the crafting system in SWG (but i do not know of any game that does)

I was in a kinship called beserkers but it disbanded and now I am looking. My main (akebavos) is a tailor and goes around and quests and get the supplies that my other crafters make. I am at least Artisan in everything and except cooking which I am Eastement and Eastement in the cooking guild also.

I look forward to playing with a kinship of like minded people.

Hi Everybody!


Your name, or character name and race (if known):Steve, Selinaris, human

Age: 31

Preferred server(s), if any. (This is not needed, just for kinship info.): Any. I just started playing and don't mind rerolling. I am currently on Landroval

Location:Maryland, USA, EST

Playstyle. I am a casual player. I have raided hardcore in the past. I would rather group, because it is silly to play an mmo by yourself, but I do solo when I don't have a lot of time.

MMO games you’ve played: EQ1, EQ2, Aion, Matrix Online, Vanguard, DDO, Tera, WoW, SWTOR, and many more.

Why kinships should be interested in you. In other words, why choose you and not another player. What do you offer kinships?: I am an experienced healer; I am also loyal and friendly.

What kind of kinship you are looking for. (This one is very important for recruiters): I am looking for a casual Kinship that likes to do things together and have fun. I hate being in a guild where people barely talk to each other, as seems to be the new standard.

I was a hardcore player of Everquest 1 and Everquest 2. In each game I had guilds where we were like a small family. We talked, we did stuff together, sometimes we even got together in a noob area just to spam languages to each other and hang out. Since I left the EQ line, I haven't found a single thing like that, and I would like to again. I came to LOTRO because I have heard that it's community is great!

One thing to note, I have a wife, children, a job that works me to death, and school. I play games to have fun and escape reality. This being said, I do not dig guilds with mandatory events. I play when I can, if a game gets turned into a third job (I did that when I was a hardcore raider) then it isn't fun, and it isn't why I play a game in the first place.

Hope to meet you all in game!

Steve

Preferred server: Laurelin

Location: EST -5

Playstyle: PvE, End Game, RP, casual, crafter

MMO games you’ve played: EverQuest 1/2. Eve Online. WoW. PS 1/2. GW 1/2. AoC. SoV. Many more.
Why kinships should be interested in you. In other words, why choose you and not another player. What do you offer kinships?: Loyalty, Dedication, Team Player, mature as any other thirty year old out there... (I hate talking about myself)

What kind of kinship you are looking for. (This one is very important for recruiters): I'm looking for a Kinship that is well rooted in the Laurelin RP community, which does not mind recruiting players who are not all that well versed in the Tolkien lore, but would not mind teaching, helping with RP. I've only ever RP'ed in EQ2 (Shout out to all the Antonia Bayle RP'ers!). I'm not new to the game, I have a Lvl 58 Man Champion on another account. Have never played a class like a Hunter, usually been Assassin like, or Guardian classes in any mmo. So the Hunter is a little new to me. Fiosdion is lvl 30 now, finishing up in LL currently. For some reason this game just grabs me and takes me in, it must be the Tolkien addiction. With the RP aspect aside, I'm looking for Kinship that's been around, doesnt mind taking in new RP'ers, and showing them the ropes. (Still havent created a story for Fiosdion). Between my Career, my two beautiful little girls, the missus. I don't have all the time. But I will -always- dedicate time. Which of course I can, so no problems there. I'm looking to get all the way to end game, and seeing what's out there for raids, eventually when the time comes.

Basically put, I'm looking for a Circus of Friends whom are always around doing things, but more importantly doing things together. ..I hope that analogy is easily understandable, lol.

Thanks!

Playstyle. (Solo, group, PvE, PvP, RAIDs, casual, hardcore, end-game, RP, no RP, time limited, crafter, “I don’t know, I’m new to this kind of game”, etc.):

I currently play solo but I really would like to be in a kinship thats a family. Chatting, talking about problems (real life and in game), questing together, raiding etc.
I'm currently in a kin but I am willing to leave for a more social and more family like kin.

MMO games you’ve played: WoW, Aion, AQ Worlds.

Why kinships should be interested in you. In other words, why choose you and not another player. What do you offer kinships?:

I'm a social player who likes to chat with others and I'm willing to learn the craft of raiding. I just don't get the opportunity on my server very much and I'm quite dissapointed about that.
I will also help any player with anything that I can do for them.

What kind of kinship you are looking for. (This one is very important for recruiters):
I'm looking for a family like kinship. People who are friendly with each other, help each other out, quest together (also solo quests) and also talk about stuff outside the game.
I'm also actively looking to learn the craft of raiding but haven't been given the opportunity to do so.

If a kin is interested please PM me in-game, maybe I will be the new addition to a friendly kin :)

Location. :

Playstyle.:

Hardcore Roleplaying - been roleplaying on forums and playing tabletop dungeons & dragons for 7+ years
Hardcore Raider and Team Leader - I like group activities and I especially love the teamwork, concentration and focus involved in raiding. I am not however a power gamer. Raiding for me has to be done over weekends as I do have full-time weekday commitments, family, studies and a job.
I absolutely love playing in a group! Always up for instancing and organising kinship events! I am normally an officer or admin of some sort as I tend to get very involved.

MMO games you’ve played:

LOTRO
Archeblade
Guild Wars 2
Neverwinter
League of Legends

Why kinships should be interested in you. What do you offer kinships?:

Extremely friendly, bubbly and sociable! - I am a very helpful person and I love to just jump in and help whenever. I am dedicated, responsible and organised. I have initiative and drive. Whilst I may start out as just a recruit, I am always willing to step up and be an officer as I willingly love to help, guide, train and lead others - whether it be in a social event, or an instance or raid. I am also very diplomatic, I can diffuse tricky situations. However whilst happy in a leadership position, I am just as happy just being a normal member! I get to just be a happy soldier participating in kin events and I am cool with that also.

Experience - I am not new to LOTRO or MMO game mechanics. I know my way around fellowship manuevers, voice chat and all of the classes. I played LOTRO up until the lvl 75 cap, stopped for a bit and now I am back. I only need to catch up on the new content and updates. I am a previous kin leader and have led raids in the past.
I am also a very experienced roleplayer in terms of character creation and ideas. Whilst my LOTR Lore is scratchy - I am a friend of reading and am reading up on my Tolkien Lore as you read this. I can quickly adapt to anything and I learn very fast. Throw anything at me and I am good to go.

What kind of kinship you are looking for.:

Looking for a Heavy RP and Raiding Kinship with a mature, friendly and sociable atmosphere.

Why kinships should be interested in you. In other words, why choose you and not another player. What do you offer kinships?: I'm extremely friendly, love being social and making new friends, love helping others, I have a sense of humor, I don't take things too seriously, Im mature but love gaming for life :-).

What kind of kinship you are looking for. (This one is very important for recruiters): Must be a mature kin. Id prefer an over 18 kin since Im 44 lol, but not an absolute requirement if the kin is mature. Prefer those that are not too hardcore that are more relaxed or casual, but love to play and be social.....and of course help others. A kin that is looking to group with people they are not familiar with and would be new to the kin :-)

LOTRO Background:
So I have a hunter level 65 which I haven't touched in 5 years. Since there is no other MMO interesting to me right now and I'm now slightly pessimistic of a couple of upcoming games, I decided to see if this game, the last game that actually felt like a home for more than 6 months, will interest me again. I left ages ago finding it hard west coast time (Los Angeles) to find groups at night during the week. I chose the Landroval server again, probably my favorite server in any MMO ever. To be honest I never completely felt like I had chosen the right class back then. I found my hunter kinda boring, but I invested so much time in him I never let go. Originally I tried a Loremaster, but after playing a Mage in WOW for so long it felt like an insult to a magic user lol. Then the uproar happened when they came out with the Runekeeper to please people like me (sorry lol) and I loved that class. Problem is I want to be a hobbit and Runekeeper isn't a choice. So I chose a Minstrel and am leaning on just starting fresh. Healers are always wanted in every game and if I like it, maybe I'll continue being one in future games like ESO if that game ends up to be OK by release. At some point the game will be so familiar that I may pick up the hunter, but at least I have a lot of money on that toon lol. So yea, I'm doing a reset for two reason, a sense of the world again and getting used to a different play style. Love the fact that they upgraded the graphics. It doesn't feel much like an aged MMO except for the character creation. World looks beautiful still :-).

I'm looking for a friendly, fun, and casual Kinship. I'm currently learning French, and I'm enamored by the beautiful language. I started a captain last week. I'd love to join up with a Kinship who uses voice chat because language learning is my primary reason for playing the game. My in-game name is Sockso. I like to play as a helpful support character. I hope to hear from you!
