Looking for a Kinship? Post here.

[Annu]

Hail and well met fine folk of Elendilmir!

I come here representing seven fine players who frequently kinship together on the Elendilmir server ranging in level from 43 to 36 who are looking for a Kinship to call home.

We do not consider ourselves ‘elite’ players though we play for many hours every day and have a good understanding of the quests and the game in general. We are fun loving, laid back, mature acting and extraordinarily helpful to others. Several of us are masters in our crafts.

We would like a kinship that would allow us to participate in raids though not one that would require it.

And we all come as a package deal. :-) Our greatest concern is that we all remain together, but don’t let that put you off! We enjoy one another’s company but we would never exclude others – we do like to help and want to be a part of a larger group.

If there are any Kinships out there that would be interested in a group like this you can contact in game: Anriel, Faldir, Gilandor, Lindorion, Ofeigr, Raydus, and Shamini in alphabetical order!

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.):Solo, Group, PvE, casual, id like to raid/end game eventually

MMO games you’ve played:City of Heroes, WoW, EQ2, EVE for about 2 weeks

Why kinships should be interested in you. In other words, why choose you and not another player. What do you offer kinships?:coming from an MMO background of casual gaming to hardcore end game raiding, i in no way enjoy nor bring drama to the game. i enjoy passing along anything ive learned with others, helping my guildmates lvl up/progress, and im flexable on what class to play. im looking for a great guild that enjoys the game and is friendly

What kind of kinship you are looking for. (This one is very important for recruiters):a zero drama, friendly, RP/non RP/OOC kinship. i enjoy soloing as much as grouping. i am a new dad, so i cant guarantee ill be the player with the most in game time logged but i plan to be here when i can. i love MMO's and it seems this one has some great potential, i look foward to seeing it where things go from here

Name: Forum Rabbitsrabbits \ Game: Robins Minstrel \ Nickname : Rabbs
Age: 22

Location: San Rafael , CA (PST)

Play style: I usually play solo, but like to group with friends or guildmates. I am not a big fan of questing ,but don't mind a few here and there or just to help out. No roleplay but i try not to mess it up for other who do. Limited time PST 6p.m. to 10 p.m. and the late nights when i cant sleep. I rarely craft but will for some copper in my pocket. Havent tried monsterplay yet. But i am sure i will like it.

Games I have played: Dark Age of Camelot since release off and on. Lineage 1 and 2, CoH, Shadowbane (anyone remember that one?) , Horizons, FFXI, AC, Phantasy Star Universe, WoW, Vanguard, and many more I just cant think of . As you can see I have played many if not too many mmo's . But still Dark Age of Camelot has been the longest mmo I have played.

Why kinships should be interested in you: I am a friendly character to have in groups and like to help out fellow kinship members ( Ill call it kinmates from now on , Kinship members seems to long and funny.)I have played many mmo's over the past few years and have much experience in guilds/kinships. I believe that a Kinship can take the gaming experience much more enjoyable. Great in groups listening or leading .

What kind of kinship you are looking for: A mature kinship not focus only on raids and pvp, but on its members and the kinships progress. A kinship that has weekly events just so new members can meet other kinmates. I prefer a tight knit kinship when everyone knows each others name. Rather then a big kinship focused on gaining new numbers for a bigger raids. And a kinship that remembers when playing a game its for fun.

Thanks for taking a look Hope to see a reply soon

Age: 25

Location.Montana, MST

Playstyle.i like a bit of everything, I craft, pve,pvp, raid whatever. i just like grouping up and helping out guildmates.

MMO games you’ve played: 2yrs=SWG, 1 year MXO, The City of games,hero,lineage 2,everquest, guild wars, dark and light, wish,WOW,Anarchy Online. and several others that never made it past beta 1 that would just be overkill at this point. needless to say i am a veteran of online gaming.

I am looking for a fun guild of mature players that like to help each other out. The base principle in my opinion of a great guild is how the members treach each other and how much they are willing to trully help out. while guild thinks that givng a discount to guild members on their crafts is the honorable thing to do, I hppen to come from the line of thinking that guildmate deserves the shirt off your back. Anyway I think that is prolly enough for ya'll to figure out what kinda guild i am looking for and if i am the right person for yours.

What kind of kinship you are looking for. (This one is very important for recruiters):

Not really into the whole Role-Play bit. I'm more, looking for a kinship that takes it casually, but knows what they are doing. A good inbetween of hardcore and Casual is the real preference if possible. I wouldn't say family environment, but mature personalities would be preferred as well as an age limit of 18 and older. For some reason, I just wish to avoid playing with teens and younger at this point in time.

MMO's I've Played - This the the first MMO I've played. However, most of the games I have owned in my life have been RPG.

Why Kinships should be interested in me - I log on once or twice a day and probably play 15 - 20 hours a week. Although I am new to MMO's I can see the need for goups to gel when questing.

Kinships that interest me - Looking for a kinship with more mature members that have real lives i.e. jobs, significant others, etc. I do enjoy this game quite a bit but I would want my guild somewhat casual in its play.

[Baradon]

Name: Farlin (Dwarf Champion)
Age: 27
Location: U.S. East Coast
Playstyle: I prefer to quest with group of similar level people, although I wouldnt turn down a helping hand from a higer level. I love to run instances and raid. Summer is a lot busier for me IRL so I cant keep up a heavy raid schedule, then again, I also need to level quite a bit first too. I believe in helping the guild advance with instances and collecting mats. The only thing I am not into is forced RP. I have nothing against those who do, especially since this is an RPG, but its just not my thing.
MMO games you’ve played: The only other MMO I have played is WoW. I was a level 70 Dwarf Hunter, and the GM of a raiding guild working on expansion material.
Why kinships should be interested in you: Very helpful and enjoy working wtih the Kinship to advance.
What kind of kinship you are looking for: I am looking for a Kinship with the goal of eperienceing end game content, but I dont want to power level past all the lower level content.

MMO games you’ve played:
WoW - lvl 70 paladin and warlock, and a smattering of alts. My guild was 3 bosses deep in naxx in november, then stopped raiding til TBC came out.

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

What kind of kinship you are looking for. (This one is very important for recruiters):

I'm looking for a mature, casual yet active kinship. I don't want to race to the level cap. Instead, I want to enjoy the ride. I enjoy crafting, and would like a guild that provides some sort of crafting organization. I've been heavily involved in leadership of guilds in my younger days (pre kids), but have no interest in those types of duties now. My playtime is 10-20 hours per week, with ~1 hour per week night.

[Tiriel42]

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

None yet since I'm still as much looking for a good server as a good guild =) A lot of mature players posted here, which made me think this might be a good point to start.
I test-played a few classes on a random server and both Minstrel and Loremaster look interesting, as do Hunters and Champions, but I'm flexible. I'm mainly interested in seeing this great new world, no matter the class, and I'd be perfectly happy to help fill whatever need for classes the kinships has What I don't want to do is power-level just to start raiding immediately (been there and done that way too many times)


Age: (some kinships have real life age limits)

38, call me grammy =)


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

PST, I tend to work fairly late, so I'm rarely home before 7pm PST.


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 love to group with fun people, although I stick to soloing if I can't commit time (I find it fairly rude to have everyone wait around because you have to pick-up hubby from somewhere).
I have fairly extensive endgame raiding experience (see below) and I would love to experience some of that in LOTRO, too, when I get there, just not in a hard-core setting (and to specify: raiding three nights a week does NOT classify as hard-core on my scale, while five nights do).


MMO games you’ve played:

WoW. Then WoW. Then some more WoW. I played that game for two and a half years and tried pretty much every available class. I raided on my Priest through the first bosses in Naxx, then on my Mage to Gruul at which point I decided that the game had become a second occupation and I didn't want to spend that kind of energy. Without the thrill of new content through raids the game became very stale, very quickly.


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

Hard question to answer.
Foremost I think I'm a fun person to hang out with and (time permitting) always willing to help.
I was an officer in one of my WoW guilds, class leader, co-raid leader in another, although my current work-schedule doesn't allow me as much involvement as I usually like.
If the kinship has need of a particular class, I'm willing to roll with it, the fun of playing mostly comes from interacting with others anyway
I also consider myself a pretty proficient player (although in LOTRO I'm still falling over my own feet, since I only just bought the game on Sun =))
I expect to be on most days, although not always with the ability to commit for the entire evening (usually more flexible on weekends).
Since I'm only starting off the kinship stands to benefit very little from my gaming experience, all I can do is promise to prove myself worthy later


What kind of kinship you are looking for. (This one is very important for recruiters) :

Mostly I'm looking for fun, mature, helpful people, who like to do stuff together. In the long run I hope to be doing some raiding, so a casual raiding guild would be my perfect match =)
Mid-size to largish would be great (love to meet new people and it's great to always have someone else on to chat or quest with).

Thanks so much for reading! I hope to meet many of you in game I'll update this post once I made a character on this server so I can chat with anyone who might have questions.
