WELCOME TO QME
Successor of the HOBBIT RPG
RETURNING MEMBERS
It's good to welcome you old friends! I'm glad you could all make it to our new forum after a little bit of a bumpy transition. Anyway, we hope you like everything Jay and I have been working on and I can't wait to get right back into things and start RPing with you all again.
TAKING BACK YOUR CHARACTERS
You may have noticed that the Application looks a little different now and that there have been a few changes. However, fear not for Jay and I will help you through all that if you need help and so on.
All the canon characters previously owned on the Hobbit RPG have been reserved for their respective owners until the 15th November 2015. Canons unclaimed will be made open to the public, though with a little luck, you can still get your hands on them even once the reservation has gone!!
The Hobbit RPG site will be up for the next month so members can transfer all data and copy character information. After that it will be placed in maintenance mode but on request, Jay and I will retrieve information for you.
EXPORTING POSTS AND PMS
