1. Real life is more important than any computer game! We ourselves aren´t any hard-core LOTRO-playing people with no life outside of Eriador. Even if we are, we don´t demand the same from others. Thus no such human-beings are allowed in our kinship either. They are, if they won´t demand the same from others.

2. We do accept every race, class, gender, level and profession to join our kinship. The character should have, at least some, desire for filling his own pockets with valuables and not dreaming about being a hero of all the Middle-Earth.

3. We do not have any age restrcictions either. The character wanting to join us should act mature enough. People acting like total pillocks are not welcome. Some of us have to put up with the childish behaviour quite enough with the children of our own. The maturity is judged over the characters behaviour and judges are the officers and members of the kinship.

4. Every recruited character has 7 days to prove his worth. This doesn´t mean any heroics or trying to please as many kinship members as possible. Plain and simple interest towards the game and the kinship and acting in the boundaries of good behaviour is enough. After this 7 day trial, you´ll either get the boot or get promoted to a member.

5. Joining the kinship in the hope of fast personal benefit is strictly out of the question. Beggars, boost-wanters and me-me-me-me-egoists, please do not bother. Asking for help is something we totally accept and encourage to do. But constantly filling the kinship-channel with cries of help is something no one wants to see.

6. There are no level-rush rules, rules about how much you should be doing quests or questing with your kinnies or rules how much you should be playing the game. Just enjoy the company of your kinship-mates and the occasional banter if that is what you are mostly looking for in a kinship.

7. Did I say no rules about how much you should be playing? Well, I lied! You might aswell get used to that, after all we are The Fallen Renegades. There is in fact one important rule concerning the matter. After you have been promoted from a recruit to a member, you aren´t allowed to be offline more than 30 days without letting the kinship know about this. You should let us know if there is any longer absences in the sight. There is a topic in the forum to do this.

8. We do consider ourselves a moderate RP-kinship. Some of us do it more, some of us less. There are even some who don´t bother to do that at all. What is not allowed is complaining, if someone isn´t RP´ing enough. The kinship channel is "RP-free" area. You can act normally there if you choose. When we meet with each other around Eriador, RP´ing is strongly encouraged, but not obligatory.

9. Alts are like mistresses. You need to be experienced enough and seen the world a bit to be able to handle them.
When you´ve hit level 50. You´re allowed to bring one alt to the kinship, if you wish.

10. Real life is more important than any computer game!

Changed the rule number 9.

Now you are allowed to bring one of your alts to the kinship, as soon as you´ve hit level 50 yourself.
