Private [members only] Forum - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

I have a question which puzzled me this morning! I may seem like a complete idiot asking you this (I am new, don’t fail to remember) but who are the Private [members only] Forum. I thought I was a part of the forum this morning but it would not let me into this one thing. So do you get a members forum and then a private members forum? And if so how do these people get into the Private Members Forum???

Within the forum as a whole there are several private fora which can be accessed only by those who are entitled or have a password. 'Tyrn Gorthad' is limited to administrators, 'Mod Gorthad' to moderators, and the private 'Translations from the Elvish' forum is for those who are working on the revised Silmarillion project. The forum listed above it is for the public, accessible to all. That's where the moderators of the project can be contacted by those interested.

All other fora are open to every member.

Thanks Esty.

Welcome to the Downs Princess Fairy [and thanks for the nice review and advert for 'Tolkiens Legendarium'.

The TftE -private forum is indeed fro current members of the Revised Silmarillion/Translations from the Elvish project.

But by checking out the sticky poised perpetually atop the 'public' forum you shall learn probably way more about the project than you ever wanted to! [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]
