I've been thinking about it, actually. I'm not much of an expert on Tolkien, but I definitely admire his works. Is that alright?

My main problem is that I don't want them to know. Especially if I didn't post on their poem/story.

What exactly are the qualifications for joining your usergroup, ZZAP?
YWS gives me carpal tunnel.

Need a Critique?

Ok, I don't know if I should join. I like the LotR movies(in fact, I know more about the story than my dad because of those movies :mrgreen: ), and I know some about the Simaralirion, what inspired Tolkein, and what some of the things in his Middle Earth books are based on. I only got half way through FotR, and I have no idea if I've read the Hobbit, because I saw the cartoon while reading it. :? :|

Tolkien is great! But keep in mind that it doesn't matter how much you know about it, it matter's whether you like reading his work. Even if someone has only read the Hobbit, it still shows interest in his work. LOL! Cysi, you perpetuate me... Not fair! :twisted:

lol, typo! Yea, I'm doing lots of research on your heart problem... You currently experience TIAs, which are red flags to CPA... Basically, you are vulnerable to strokes. I suggest, if your doctor already hasn't, to take 300mg of aspirin a day... it acts as a blood thinner. Also, you should take medication for free radicals. They are the little buggers that do the permenant damage during a full stroke. A neurotransmitter called glutamate is responsible for the excitotoxin effect on your nerve cells. When you experience ischemia, lack of blood supply, your nerves excrete glutamate which involves increased rates of free radicals. Because of this, other healthy nerves become endangered from the free radicals, setting a chain reaction of glutamate secretion that wipes out nerve cells. So you should take aspirin for the blood thining that reduce the probability of blood clots... Medication that eliminates free radicals... Or some sort of glutamate inhibitor. Dark chocolate is good! High in antioxidents!
Love ya!

Erm.... about the points system...

I just modified a post, and I got 0.14 for it. Is it normal to receive points when you modify your post? o.O
