Needle Hobbit

The Ork had always loved breaching social boundaries and other Orks.

[quote name='SunfallE'][COLOR="RoyalBlue"][FONT="Lucida Sans Unicode"]I do the same since I love skipping commercials. I also love using online sites since you can access so many different sources for news. Anyway, I usually skim the paper that is delivered and then through out the day I'll watch the news via onDemand and browse different websites for other articles and tidbits. [/FONT][/COLOR][/QUOTE] Of course there are news reading Hobbits, and to think there aren't would be preposterous!

I think we've all been a part of the amazing experience that is a LARP, dressing up as knights of the realm and various other characters, orchestrating gigantic battles and taking part in heroic and valiant quests. And, as such, I'm sure that a whole multitude of people have stumbled upon these LARPS in the past, thinking "oh will you look at that, it's a whole host of people taking part in a Live Action Role Playing experience" - OR IS IT?? It's a fact of the world that back in the olden days giant armies of orks, knights and other fantasy style charcters used to have huge battles defending the good of man and trying crush evil colonies of orks and river trolls. There would be arrows and swords and big blunt war hammers and hobbits and fires and magic staffs. I know that this is very rare these days, but what are peoples thoughts that some LARPS are actually real, with small armies coming out of their woodland homes to steal magical treasures or defend woodland fortresses such as Elfwood, which was quite often plundered back in the darker days. It's certainly mindblowing to know that this probably still happens in this day and age and that LARPS are actually real life battles between good and bad.

Hello everyone. I've just been pondering to myself and with all this talk of the new UK big brother starting on TV and it in fact being *real people* (NOT actors) getting filmed for entertainment purposes, it got my brain thinking. I know that a lot of us have an avid interest in Role playing and some of the more adventurous amongst us have been known to take a hobby in LARPS (Live Action Role Playing Games). What are peoples views on reality LARPS? Could it be possible that they exist? Has anybody ever came upon them? Great to hear what people think.
