screens and pics
[edit]I think we need to add some pics here, do any of you know where we can get hold of some GNU licenced screens?
Thats a nice pic, but i don't think it really captures the feel of the game. We need another one.
I stuck a nice one on there, but it's off the turbine website, so im not sure about the copyright. the previous picture was also off the turbine website so im presuming the same copyright applies. somebody might want to check though
its fun but I have two qestions about it
[edit]shouldn't we change the pic of the game? and add some game screenshots to let the viewers to get a glimpse of the game? cuz I play it and its fun the graphics is so cool it get addicting lol. but it is true about Lord of the rings Online being fun, & is there a trick to level fast!? cuz I got a level 41 Guardain, cuz its slow to level up when you get to level 40+, but its weird you level up faster when you get to level 50, then it slows down after 60-75, So ya any trikes?

- I actually tried to change the picture for the game to a more up-to-date logo back when I was first starting out on Wikipedia. Others undid it because WikiProject Video games' policy is to use the box art of the game whenever possible. As for adding more images, this unfortunately isn't any old social media website. We have to follow copyright law, and screenshots of video games would have to qualify for fair use. Feel free to look at the fair use page I linked, but don't feel bad if you don't understand it. I barely understand it myself. As a side note, you should try [www.lotro-wiki.com LOTRO-wiki.com]. It's a wiki for Lord of the Rings Online. If you do join, you can find me there under the same username as the one here. — Gestrid (talk) 16:31, 25 September 2017 (UTC)
- Also, I should tell you: first, please login. You manually added what I assume is your username to the end of your message, but you posted from an IP address. (Whenever someone edits a page and isn't logged in, their IP address is recorded.) Second, you can automatically add your signature by typing ~~~~ at the end of your post. If you do forget, don't worry. Sooner or later, either a bot we have setup or an experienced user will fix it for you. Third, this page is a discussion page for improvement of the article, not a discussion page for the topic of the article, so I'm afraid I can't answer your question about this for the game here. Fourth, if you want any kind of help at all since you're a new user, you should ask for it at the Teahouse, a page we have setup for friendly and more experienced users to help new users with whatever they need help with on Wikipedia. I'm not criticizing you for anything, I promise. I'm just trying to help you learn the ropes. Not too long ago (around July 2016, actually), I was in your shoes learning how Wikipedia works. — Gestrid (talk) 16:45, 25 September 2017 (UTC)
