Looking for a Kinship? Post here.

Looking for a casual/occasional raid Kinship that appeals to older players on Brandywine Server. Have MMORPG'd since EQ1, so I'm a relative geezer. Have played many MMORPG's. Willing to help anyone, anywhere at anytime if I'm available to do so.

Thanks for any and all consideration.

Name: call me Kay
Age: 23
Preferred server(s): I'm playing on Gladden, but willing to start new anywhere.

Location: I am looking for a kinship that is local to Minnesota. I am in the Twin Cities.

Playstyle: I am kind of new to LoTRO, I played a little of beta and I played about a month of actual game time. I just purchased a year of game time, so I plan on being around for a while. My playstyle is usually casual but with an interest in end-game content. I like playing in groups and soloing equally. I also like to use voice chat when it's available.

MMO games you've played: Ultima Online, Acheron's Call, Star Wars Galaxies, City of Heroes/Villains, Warhammer Online, World of Warcraft

What kind of kinship you are looking for: I am looking for a kinship that is local to the Minnesota area. I want to try something new and play with people who are from my part of the world. I am willing to reroll for the right kinship, please pm me with details. I look forward to meeting some MN gamers.

My Character name is Maradith and I am an elf. I am looking for a kinship where people enjoy helping others and playing together. I am on server Elandilmir
Age: 26
I'm pretty new to this game, just play casualy when I get the chance, although i am getting addicted :) I have started the woodworking/farming/tailor crafts, and think that I like making things more than I like doing the quests.
I used to play FFXI online for a while and really enjoyed it.
I like interacting with others, and would help in whatever way i could when asked. I would like making things for people once i built my skill up a bit.

Looking to join Runic Knights. contact Quirinius

I am looking for a hard core gaming kinship. Currently on Gladden but can change since no hard core gamers there. Level 65 champion, man 130 rad gear. I'm on east coast and play everyday. Contact Doombringer on gladden.

Your name, or character name and race: Lilgem, Hobbit

Age:35

Preferred server: Brandywine

Location: Eastern US

Playstyle: casual, crafter, still learning...

MMO games you’ve played: just about all of them

Characters:
Sarobjorn, Dwarf, level 21 Guardian
Khosael, Race of Man, level 24 Loremaster

Age: 30
Server: Brandywine
Location: EST

Playstyle:
Mostly solo so far, but would like to find a kin to participate in fellowed instances and RP. I'm taking the game "casually" in the sense that I play with some frequency, but usually in short-ish sessions. I enjoy taking the game relatively slowly, exploring, chatting and crafting. I've had a good time on Brandywine so far, but would like to find a group that does at least some playing in-character and shares an affection for the lore. (In other words, I want to play with people who are here because it's Middle Earth--not because its another alternative to WOW. And I don't care about fast leveling.)

MMO games you’ve played:
NONE besides this one. Was playing Morrowind prior to this.

What I can offer your kinship:
I'm a helpful, mature player with a love for Tolkien's world. I've never RPed online, but I used to love pen & paper roleplaying and believe I'd be a creative collaborator as well as a stalwart companion. My friends in RL would probably describe me as funny, clever, and game for anything.

What kind of kinship I'm looking for.
Like nearly everyone else, I'm looking for a "mature, helpful" kinship. I'd prefer to play with others who have a love and respect for the lore (which is not to say encyclopedic knowledge of it ;-) but do not take themselves too seriously. I would really like to find a group that has at least a semi-regular time I could find people online. Ideally, I'd like to set up a "league night" once a week so I can have a dedicated time in my RL schedule when I know I can meet my kin-mates.

Example kinships I'm interested in:
Judging from the information I've been able to gather casually in-game, I think I'd do well in the Order of Middle Earth (as it seems to be big enough and big-hearted enough to have something for everyone), or the Alts (as their casual-gaming mission is attractive to me). I list these as examples only, but I think I'd be happy in either of these kinships (or one with a similar ethos) as long as there are other characters of about my level online in when I am. Full disclosure: One of my characters is currently a member of the Lost Boys, but I'm looking to change since that kinship is rarely active when I am online. I joined because I swapped information with a friendly kin-member, we got to talking, and he helped me with a quest. Simple as that. Wherever I go from here, I hope to find and foster the same kind of easygoing cooperation that I enjoyed with them.

Character name and race: Noigrim, 27 Dwarf Guardian
Age: 19
Preferred server: Elendilmir
Location: East Coast
Playstyle: Whatever
MMO games you’ve played: WoW, FF11, DDO, Guild Wars, RYL
Why kinships should be interested in you: Experienced.
What kind of kinship you are looking for: I was an original open beta player but I quit playing around a month after the game went live. I haven't touched the game since then and I'm looking for any clan that's willing to help me get adjusted back into the game and make catching up a little bit quicker.

Looking for kinship. Human Bard. Age 19, plays on Firefoot server. Solo plays but is open to other types of play. Wants a kinship that would be willing to help on instances or quests too hard for one player. Hardcore. Played this MMO before with a different character so somewhat familiar with gameplay mechanics. Dont have friends playing this game, so a kinship will enhance the experience. Open to other servers if needed. A fairly large kinship would be desirable. Location: Central Time Zone. Thanks

Name/Race - Lyndrae, level 16 Elf Loremaster
My Age - 28
Preferred Server - Meneldor
Location - CST
Playstyle - Prefer groups, solo is OK.
MMOs Played - *deep breath* UO, SRO, SWG, WoW, WAR, AoC, TR, CoX

What I can offer a kinship - A laid back, helpful, intelligent player who can also provide solid entertainment in Ventrilo. Slight case of alt-itis, so I'll probably end up with characters strewn throughout all level ranges (and will be able to help most people regardless of level/location). I am rather active, but my work schedule is 4 days on then 4 days off, so I'll be largely absent for half a week, then on consistently for the rest. I'm a crafting nut, so I'll also be able to provide those services to anyone who needs them. I'm not quite casual, but not hardcore either. We'll call it "mildly obsessed."

What I'm looking for - Organized. Fun. Active Ventrilo, as I love to chat while playing. People willing to group. A desire to do end-game content is nice, but not necessarily required. People that aren't going to flip out and break things when a group wipes or something doesn't go their way. Absolutely no drama.

Additional notes: I -may- be interested in changing servers if the kinship is really that great (and there are no other solid options on Meneldor). I also have two friends I can likely bring with me with similar traits and personality (one is also CST time zone, 16 Hunter, other is PST, 23 Runekeeper).

Your name, or character name and race (if known):
Christopher (In game name isnt decided yet.)

Age:
19 (20 this coming February)

Location. (Timezone preferences if any, state/country, etc.):
Kansas City MO

Playstyle:
None? lol

MMO games you’ve played:
WoW, Warhammer, Ferentus (and countless other betas)

Why kinships should be interested in you. In other words, why choose you and not another player. What do you offer kinships?:
I can be a very "lively" person if I get along with the players in the kinship/guild. Meaning if I end up meshing well with everyone. I love talking and making jokes and generally just being a nice person. Though I do tease people a lot.

What kind of kinship you are looking for. (This one is very important for recruiters):
Casual. But I honestly don't want a big one. I'd be happy with 20 or so people that played often and were good friends then 200 people who had separate groups in the guild. Its no fun when you only know a small portion of your guild.


Also. I'm headed to California soon to visit family for a month (won't have a computer then) and then a few weeks after I get back I go into Basic Training for the Air Force.

my characters: i have given test runs to many different race/class combos and i have settled on this one:
Runekeeper: Level 11 name:Maegalad (just made him today)
Server:Landroval

playstyle: i am a casual player, ive been playing mmos for a few years now but sporadically. i have also played WoW a bit. i mostly got into this game because i am such a die-hard tolkien fan, well, i dont dress up as Gandalf or anything but get me started on the Silmarillion or history of middle earth in general and its hard for me to shut up lol. lately ive been learning to take it easy with the pace, their is no deadline and its not a race so i like to take the time to enjoy the game world and the story.

What i can offer to a Kinship: im a very nice guy, though i can be a little shy. ill help out with whatever or whenever im needed and i have a drama free and laid back personality

What kind of Kinship im looking for: openminded, organized and is mature. i really dont get along with people who are argumentative or spiteful, i WILL ask noobish questions and i would like to do so without being ridiculed, we have ALL been noobs at one point!^_^ i get along best with people that realize that they are playing a game and NOT a lifestyle. i usually play by myself but i decided to join a guild because its really no fun to solo it all the time. if ive failed to mention anything important then by all means ask

Location. (Timezone preferences if any, state/country, etc.): Ohio, EST

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 am somewhat new to the MMO world. I love helping out others because it gives me that warm fuzzy feeling :D lol

MMO games you’ve played: warhammer, (for first few days) WOW (lvl 80 and lvl 77 highest) This took me about 2 years to achieve.

Why kinships should be interested in you. In other words, why choose you and not another player. What do you offer kinships?: I've tanked and dished out major dps on wow and look forward to doing so here. I have basic raiding knowledge so i would also like 2 do raids

What kind of kinship you are looking for. (This one is very important for recruiters): I'm a friendly soul who is here to have fun, help others and just do any of those crazy ideas you think of like going to mordor at lvl 3 haha. So im looking for a friendly guild who shares the first 2 characteristics, the third is an added bonus :D I also hope that this guild would do some basic raids that you can do. (not sure if this is possible as i am still new to this game.)

i'm looking for a kinship on any server,i have a lvl 20 0n meleldor but im real green at this game,would like to find one with low lvls like myself and people that are sociable,adult player

Preferred server(s), if any. (This is not needed, just for kinship info.): Nimrodel

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 do solo, but very much enjoy raiding, and just kin pugging as well. Have time restraints on playing due to three kids, but when I do play I'm a step up from casual, but certainly not "hard core"
MMO games you’ve played: Just LOTRO for over a year
Why kinships should be interested in you. In other words, why choose you and not another player. What do you offer kinships?: I'm easy going, and a great guard. I dont have a TON of end experience but love what I've been able to do, and am good at taking instruction. I've been an officer, so am willing to help out a lot and have a few alts with decent crafting ability. I also have all but two moria rad pieces so can help in those instances. I know what I"m doing and am confident in my class, but like to joke a lot and have fun while I play.
What kind of kinship you are looking for. (This one is very important for recruiters): Looking for active, medium sized kin that lacks in foul language and sexual induendos. I enjoy crafting and helping others with my craft (jewler on an alt). Someting with raiding capabilities, but I don't want to be guilted into it, or made to feel it's required.

Thats about it, please let me know if I can join your team and what your all about. I also would preferr having an active kin website!

Your name, or character name and race: Qidan, Race of Man, Warden
Age: 31
Preferred server(s), if any: Currently on Nimrodel, but would transfer for decent Kin
Location: MST, Salt Lake City,
Playstyle: I have a habit of soloing most, if not all MMO's, would be nice to have a little help on some fellowship/group type quests if needed. I am Artisan Woodworker, Artisan Forester, Apprentice Farmer
MMO games you’ve played: Too many to list here, it would bog down the thread. Put it this way, not many I haven't played.
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 very active player, I help when needed, I have much experience as Clan Officer/Clan leader so I voice my opinions openly. I love gaming, its what I do.
What kind of kinship you are looking for: I am interested in an open but mature guild. Prefer veteran players, can tolerate drama, but not over zealous drama. I know that in every guild/kin there will be drama, I usually just stay out of it. Would enjoy raiding/instances, but need to level my self more currently 33, so I have a long ways to go.

I am interested in receiving pm's here or in game mail introducing your kinship, and why you could use me, not just for a body count.. if thats all it is, then don't message me. I want to have a kin I call home/friends.

Your name, or character name and race: Haven't made one yet...waiting for replies on here for good kins on certain servers....that sorta thing =P

Age: 22

Preferred server(s), if any: Any server, I am new.

Location: US EST.

Playstyle: Well I guess solo for some of it as I am new and I cant expect others to carry me through the game, I like RP, though not hardcore where I always have to be in character. PvE and raiding may be fun too, but as I said nothing hardcore. Casual! That's the word I am looking for.

MMO games you’ve played: WoW, Aion, tried DDO and SWG.....also gonna play SW: TOR when it comes out.

Why kinships should be interested in you. In other words, why choose you and not another player. What do you offer kinships?: Friendliness, I am always willing to help and do my part. I can try out whatever roll the kin needs me to be. I am very open to suggestions.

What kind of kinship you are looking for?: Something casual. I guess if I had to pick out of all the types of kins i would say an RP kinship. I am not a big PvPer, PvE does get boring after awhile and RP gives you something fun to do in your downtime.

Hi :) I just switched over to brandywine. Was on arkenstone with a 53 lore master. Im looking for a aussie kinship that has mostly people from aus in it because of the time zone (I live in new zealand). I'm on brandywine and have a level 15 ministrel leveling fast. Looking for a kinship on Brandywine~ :) Name is Ladidadida in game (It's like a song). Thnx~ :D

Guardians of Nimrodel are still currently recruiting. Nimrodel is a medium-population server with the PVP growing immensely.

Our members range from lvl 20 - 65 and anywhere in between. We have several end-game ready members but on the flipside those same members are showing the way for the up and coming :D

Our main focus is kinship and comradery first, then end game. We have a happy home and we will not see that upset.

The link I posted above will give you some more information about our kin.

But feel free to visit our kin webpage here There you'll be able to get a good feel for what we are looking for. If you would like to chat in game or in vent, send me a tell and I'll give you our information.

See you all in middle earth!
