Looking for kinship - fellowship - Something
My name is John and my Character is Meriadoke (Human Champion) Level 38
I play on the Meneldor Server. I am currently in Evendim... But most of the Solo quests I'm doing I get mobbed and can't complete the quest.
I am 69 years old today. I live in California (Pacific Time) and am retired. I play a lot 4-5 days a week (my wife has a random weekday off.)
I have gotten this far play solo, I would like to learn to play in fellowships.
Some of my quests even though they say they are "Solo" I get mobbed by large groups and can't complete the quest until I'm several levels over what they say the quest is.
This is the first MMO I've really played. I've tried others but just didn't like them for one reason or the other.
This is the 2nd time I've posted, the first time I got no response. Do I have to come back here to get a response or will it come to my email address?
I tried getting a fellowship today by sending out a text to /regional, no response.
Do I have the plague or something? :(
[Landroval] Returning Player seeking kinship for fun, mayhem, stealing the cookies
Greetings! I'm another returning player - actually a Founder. I originally started on Gladden, but have moved to Landroval after hearing nothing but great things about the community since I came back. I last played shortly after Mirkwood came out.
Character names: Amerygn, 62 captain (human); Gillerian, 29 minstrel (elf); Guilliame, 20 burglar (hobbit); and Storhoi, 17 champion (dwarf). Yeah, you'd think after all this time I'd have something higher than 62...
Age: 50. Nice, round, even. I even have a cane, though I don't need it yet.
Server: Landroval, duh.
Location: US Eastern time. Weekday playtime is generally evenings; weekends are variable.
Playstyle: PvE, preferably with others, though OK with soloing. I'm an experienced roleplayer, but haven't done any LOTRO roleplay to date; I'm open to a kin with RP but it's not my main focus. I enjoy instancing (though I'm very rusty) and the occasional raid; my hardcore raiding days are behind me. I sometimes call my style "serious casual" - I want to be good at my chose role or class, but not to the point of making the game my job.
MMO games I've played: Oh geez. EQ1, EQ2, Earth & Beyond, EVE, Horizons, WoW, GW2, SWTOR, and have dipped my toes in several more.
Why should you be interested in me? I'm civil, friendly, helpful when I can be, occasionally humorous, and I make a mean Dark & Stormy. What's that, you can't drink these? More for me, then.
What kind of kinship am I looking for? I'm looking for a socially-oriented kinship with a primarily PvE and social focus; roelplaying is fine and I'm happy to chip in to RP events or stories. I want to be able to do cool things with cool people, who take things just seriously enough to play reasonably well, but not so seriously as to mistake the game for a life priority.
Looking for a kin - currently on Eldar
Long time player of over five years - lifetime subscription. Currently playing on Eldar and kinless.
Age 50, male, UK, with family and job but often online most nights for 2-3 hours.
Mains: RK (level 100) and Warden (soon will be level 100) and levelling up Guardian, Loremaster and Captain.
RK: Gyldorion
Warden: Gylbrennan
Looking for a friendly, helpful kin.
Am into PvE but not PvP (at least have never really got into it and have preferred lore, questing and instances).
To give an idea of what I am looking for:
a relatedly active kin with players both at end-game and also levelling up; I am happy helping experienced players with Alts and new players and would want the same help for me
a kin that does instances and raids and like to get them done well but are not elitist/over serious nor obsessed with min/maxing; nor operate points-systems; nor play at unsociable times; there are some raids (OD, ToO) that I have not yet fully completed
players who like to complete all of the deeds from simple low-level slayer deeds to meta-deeds (e.g. need Thorog, Dungeons of DG) to the deeds associated with instances/raids (e.g. at T2)
players who like some of the fluff stuff too such as Festivals
help with larger group-size BBs
Looking for kin on Riddermark
Name or character name: Ervith of Rivendell (lvl 39 elf Lore master on Riddermark)
Age: 20
Location: Sweden
Playstyle: Solo for the reason that I never have someone to play with.
MMO games you’ve played: RoM, Lotro
Why kinships should be interested in you: I'm a novice to the mmorpg genre, I've never experienced endgame or even a high level char. The main reason for that is because the lack of people to play with, and learn from. You should be interested in me because I'm willing to learn everything! And I will give back 100% to my kinship. I'm an adult and I act like one. I don't swear every other word and I don't argue over pointless stuff for the sake of arguing. I'm open minded and will always be willing to take advice from others and follow directions in groups.
What kind of kinship you are looking for. (This one is very important for recruiters): I'm looking for a kinship that is "beginner friendly" and willing to educate someone like me in "the right way" to play, whether i'ts raids, quests, farming or crafting.
I sincerely hope there's a kinship for me out there!
Best regards // Ervith of Rivendell
{Silverlode} Looking for casual mature fun kinship
Your name, or character name and race (if known): Skillomite, Man, Hunter, currently lvl 77.
Age: (some kinships have real life age limits). 40ish
Preferred server(s), if any. (This is not needed, just for kinship info.): Silverlode
Location. (Timezone preferences if any, state/country, etc.): UK, so GMT afternoons and evenings.
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.): So far I've been solo. I'm a casual player, fairly time limited.
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 mature player looking for similar people, mature as in attitude rather than age. Not into arguing or L33tspeak or oneupmanship. Happy to take advice and learn, that's one of the main reasons I'm looking, to slowly learn how to work in a team and casually RAID. Happy to help others and be helped myself sometimes.
What kind of kinship you are looking for. (This one is very important for recruiters): I want a kinship that is fairly large with an active chat, helpful mature attitudes, with absolutely no pressure to level or have the right gear. Beginner friendly is a good phrase I just edited in from the post above, its a good description.
Hope you can help, this game is amazing as a solo player I can only imagine it's so much better played as a group.

Looking for a kin on Crickhollow
Character Name: Branway Level 47 (Captain/Woman), Dolfin Level 15 (Runekeeper/Elf), Tuphinwar Level 17 (Guardian/Elf), and Sanoris Level 23 (Warden/Woman)
Location: USA, Texas
Age: 21
Server: Crickhollow
Playstyle: I'm a big, big soloer who's mostly casual and always PvE. I'm F2P, too, which does have some drawbacks.
MMO Games You've Played: LOTRO and . . . Nope, that's it.
Why kinships should be interested in you. In other words, why choose you and not another player. What do you offer kinships?: Well, I'm mature, respectful, and know how to spell (most of the time). I also have no problem answering questions or playing mentor, when I'm qualified to do either of those things. I'm laid back and willing to learn. I also enjoy crafting, although I still have some room to grow in that area.
What kind of kinship you are looking for: I'm looking for a kinship that doesn't mind a late bloomer. Though my main is a level 47, I've never grouped before, or done any group content. This is mostly because I suspect I would be awful at it, which is hardly a ringing endorsement, but is the truth. I would like to learn how to group and handle group content well, so that in the future, I at least have the option to group up rather than go it solo. I would like a kin which all my alts could join, so it's easier to pool resources. I also want a kin that's still supportive of soloers. While I want to learn how to do group content, my main reason for wanting to join a kin are the social aspects. I'd still like to be able to solo most of the time, just with a little company.
If you're willing to overlook my less than stellar application and invite me to join your kin, I'd be most grateful and . . . realizing my list of requirements is longer than my list of helpful attributes, most surprised. Do it anyway, though. Pretty please!;)
( US ) New Player Looking For a Home
Hello everyone! My name is Kyler. As the title above says, I am a new to LOTRO and am looking for a helpful and close knit Kinship to call home.
I have been an avid Lord of the Rings fan since I was about 8-9 years old. I've read from Hobbit-Return of the King three times each and have watched every movie in blue ray extended version countless times Needless to say, I love Middle Earth. I bought LOTRO on launch day but was never able to truly get into it. I love being able to group up through MMOs or atleast talk to a group of friends while playing. For some reason, every time I logged on to play I couldn't really get the experience I was looking for. This past week I moved all the way to Alaska and currently have a TON of free time on my hands. So I decided I really want to buckle down, find a good kinship, and play this game! If any Kins out there are willing to recruit a Middle Earth fanatic and veteran MMO player please do not hesitate to post here! ( I'll include a little information below for anyone interested ). Thanks guys and happy hunting!!
I've been playing MMOs for 9 years now. I have extensive experience in both being an officer of guilds and also a years experience of being a Guild Master. I'm easy to get along with in game and love to have fun and enjoy the game. But I also know when to take things seriously, whether it be in a raid or going over "guild matters". My schedule is fully open right now and I will be playing all day tomorrow. Like I said above, please post here if you are willing to pick up a player! Thanks again guys.
Looking for Raiding Kinship
So, after having returned to the game, years after the CM migration, I find myself all subscribed up again and looking for a friendly Kin :)
My in game name is Novae, a hunter on the Eldar server. Im happy to join voice comms (in game, TS, vent, mumble) 18+, check, and I am helpful and industrious to all who need me.
Im very much a completionist, so am happy to help others with runs of content I dont need myself to up deeds and acheivments.
Ideally, I would like to join a Kin that often has raids / instances / group play going on. My best memories from Shadows of Angmar --> Mirkwood are of healing my kin in the raids of the time - Rift, DN, DG all ran to completion on a veriety of classes. I am usually availble in UK prime time - 7-11gmt, depending on when content would be run most often.
Preferably, I would like to be a part of a kin that trusts their members, and is happy to have a fair loot mechanic (assuming this is still a relavent point) - had bad experiances since with other MMO groups using point systems, and then locking out the new players untill the officers are all decked out.
I am also happy to level an alt specifically to fill a needed class slot, and will happily outfit kin members with any food/scrolls/hope pots etc that may be needed.
Looking forward to finding a new home :)
Nova o/
