There's a lot more of a problem here than would just be solved by RPG'ing it out, Val. I mean, we might have a revolution to start!

I've never visited it, but I'm still not sure exactly why we have a Rocket-Propelled Grenade Forum on a Tolkien site- did this come from Saruman, or was it something Feanor cooked up back in the First Age?

OK - you asked for it. The RPG RPG is on!

I forgot all about him. Maybe we'll need to make a list of enemies who would stoop to such levels as to steal our ent.

It took us otherwise long enough to find them in the first place. If we're having to go on such a quest again to find Treebeard, that banner's gonna be emtpy for another few years!

Let's be on the one side where we don't have to explain to Ben that somebody stole his banner-ent from under our noses.

Moved to RPG RPG.

Maybe we can get Treebeard back relatively peacefully* after all!

*And by "relatively peacefully" I mean fighting other bad guys, not amongst ourselves...

Well yeah, but it's not like this job pays enough (i.o.w. zip, nada, niente, niks & noppes) for me to enlist militias of people or even automotons...

Or shrubberies for that matter...

(I mean, seriously?)

I leave for a short vacation and these blundering buffoons manage to steal Treebeard, eh? I might shoot something, if I was feeling hasty.

I think that should just about do it for shrubberies. When do we get the Big Guy back? I'm starting to miss him.

I just wanted to say that it's probably wrong to give in to the kidnappers - won't that just cause them to make higher and higher demands? Unfortunately, in order to post this, I am giving them exactly what they want! Tricksy!

You're right, we can't let the terrorists win!

Ah! But here's another post! Such trickery!

*sigh* What kind of idiots are these Entnappers? If you're going through so much trouble why ask for only so few posts? On my other forum we regularly have 1000 post in one night-quests. Now THAT counts as a ransom.
(We managed to complete the quest only twice though, so to keep it realistic, I'd say demand 750)

Maybe the kidnappers don't think Treebeard is worth that much to us... (Although if we complain about the ransom being so low, who knows what they'll ask for next!)

Does your other forum have an mascotte? If so, I'd watch out for giving the kidnappers other prospective victims.

How are we doing on that post-count since the post-it went up?

And does this one count?
