Hey hey, everyone! I'm Artificial Asian, generally called AA or Battery. I tried to join this site a while back, and only recently realized that my account is now approved. ^_^ So I join you now, not entirely sure if I'll stick around, but confident I'll at least put in a few posts.
I've been a fan of LotR since I was young(er), but although I know my fair share of trivia and details, I'm also fairly sure, judging by some of the topics and amount of elvish used, that quite a few people here know far, far more than I.
As far as rules and things go, I'm a forum moderator of another fansite for another series, so hopefully you won't have any trouble from me unless it's unintentional and I missed one of the rules, in which case I apologize in advance. As I apologize for those overly wordy sentences. >_>So... the short version here is hi, I'm Artificial Asian!
[Can I call you Art (x2)?

] or otherwise add to the general LotR discussions... The fandom is old and even though it may seem like we've already debated everything there is to debate it's still fun!!
