Hah, obviously not been reading my posts, then.
Welcome.

You do not hear, and so you cannot be redeemed.
In the name of their ancient pride and humiliation, they had made commitments with no possible outcome except bereavement.
He knew only that they had never striven to reject the boundaries of themselves.
Hail everyone...I think I did something wrong when I tried to register. I got all kinds of errors. I tried it twice, and I'm on the member list twice. But I can't log in. Anyway, I was trying to be here as "Furl's Fire".
I really wanted to be part of this. I came across it from a search I did on Thomas Covenant. I heard SRD was writing the third chronicles (FINALLY!! never thought he would get around to it!). Would be great to share opinions with other TC fans.
So Hail all you lovers of the Land!

Welcome, Furl's Fire. Welcome and true. You picked a bit of a hairy time to join the Watch (some of the glitches might account for your problem with the login), but we're glad to have you.

You might want to wait to redo it in case it doesn't take, but other than that, it couldn't hurt.

Hail Variol-son, thank you for the welcome alas, I tried once more to register and failed.
I have spent alot of time reading all the posts here and find the views of everyone to be amazing, and somewhat daunting. I particularly found the discussion of whether The Land is real or not very interesting.
I hope to be able to join in the dicussions soon

I am sorry to say, Furl's Fire, that I read a remark awhile back that Vain made and it said the system will not to register names with the ('s) in them. I bet you would have better luck if you register under a different name. I know that sucks tho. Maybe "Fire of Furl" or something like that?
Someone correct me if I am wrong here because I am too lazy to actually look the post up
Oh and THANKS FOR COMING ALL NEWBIES!!!!!!!!
