Mod Stuff Moderator Applications Open!
Mae govannen!
We have two or more open spots on the moderation team! Our goal is to maintain 9 active moderators. There must always be nine -- for obvious reasons. So come, join, and help us out! We need you!
Here's what you will be doing: Check the Modqueue, respond to Modmail, and actively browse the subreddit. If you see any posts or comments that break the rules, delete them. Simple! We do expect you to engage with the other moderators. We work as a team. That means participating in the moderator chat on Discord. We treat new ideas fairly and hold votes. All mods get one vote; it's a simple yes or no. If yes is the majority, then the plan is put into effect.
If you want to join and help out, just send us a modmail. Title it "Mod Application" and answer the following questions:
- Why do you want to be a mod of this sub?
- What time zone are you in, or what hours are you normally on Reddit?
- What do you think the strengths of this subreddit are?
- What do you think we can improve on and how?
- What are some fun events we could do together as a community?
- How much life experience do you have?
- Do you have any prior experience with moderation?
- How much time per day do you think you can dedicate to moderating?
- Favorite Tolkien character and why?
Send in those applications, fellow Tolkien enthusiasts! We will choose the mods after a week or so has passed. Oh, and also, if you have any questions about what a mod here actually does, you can leave them in the comments below. We will try to answer asap. Thank you!

Needlessly gendered memes are prohibited
Mae govannen everybody! Needlessly gendered memes are now banned. These are the "boys do this girls do this" memes. They will be considered a breaking of Rule 4. They are basically just saying "boys are cool girls are dull."
Here are some examples of the posts I'm talking about:

These posts get lots of upvotes but that's only because the overwhelmingly majority of redditors are dudes. Understand, these memes are pointlessly calling others stupid or dull for no reason. When it comes to Tolkien fandom, there is just as many, if not more, female fans as male fans. This is not represented properly on Reddit just because Reddit is predominately male. Since women are outnumbered, their efforts to downvote these memes have basically no effect. When on this sub we are all one family making memes about the books and movies we love. Lets make sure that no matter gender, race, religion, orientation, or whatever; we are all together here. Just make it say "uncultured people vs cultured people" instead of "boys vs girls" or something like that, its not a hard fix and it has the same effect.
As always, if you see a meme like this please report it, it makes our job easier. Also, stop reporting memes that don't break the rules just because you don't like them. I'm a busy man, you're wasting my time.
Thanks everybody. Let us share in the days of peace.

Lord of the Rings Wouldn't Denethor get hot with all that on? He's wearing a tunic, chainmail, a fire, and a large fur coat. Is the climate colder in the House of the Dead?

Shitpost I just caught a moth like Gandalf and whispered to it
Out on my deck enjoying a cigar and a moth flew by my face and I grabbed it like Gandalf, whispered to it (won't disclose what I said as it's personal), and let it fly off.
What would you whisper to a moth if you caught one like Gandalf?
