Please!! Nobody kill me!!
And I swear it's only one little thing this time! It's just something that I've been noticing a little bit lately, and I just thought I would address it, and you can all ignore me if you want, but it's just something that maybe a few of you would like to just glance at...
Just a tiny thing here. Half-Elves were very, very rare. In the entire history of Middle Earth, the only account of a mortal and Elven marraige was with Beren and Luthien, and Arwen and Aragorn (and Thingol and Melian if you want to count them...but Thingol was a high Elf, and Melian was a Maiar, so it's a bit different...). Both of these things were purely destiny, and I ASSURE you it did not happen a lot. This has been a common argument for a long time, but the fact that I have recently been seeing a lot of these profiles floating around where a bunch of random characters running here and there are all Half-Elven...well, I just thought I would quick mention that it is not as simple as it may sound. Races do not mix that easily, and mortals actually tried to avoid too much contact with the Elves, for many reasons, but among one of them was indeed love. Elves did not readily make friends with mortal men because they knew that eventually they would die, and seeing as Elves are so tender-hearted...well, the loss of a friend would be terribly grievous. And that is why it is seen VERY often in fanfiction that Thranduil is very against Legolas having a friendship with Aragorn. Why? Because he doesn't want to see Legolas go through the grief of having to lose his best friend. So again, that is another reason why Elven and mortal marraiges were extremely rare.
Not that it couldn't happen...it's just that when it happens, it should really have a very good explanation to it, and also a reassurance that the birth of this Half-Elven child was a very...unusual thing indeed. Some of you may see that as a Mary-Sue waiting to happen, but like I said, [b]reasonable explanations change everything.[/i]
Thanks for hangin' in there with me guys! I know I'm probably annoying a lot of you...but I'm not trying to, believe me!

And I thank you deeply for your opinion as well. And as I have said many times before, I am not pointing a finger nor blaming or coming down on anybody. These notes that I am leaving are for those who are just looking for a little advice on new ways to shape up their characters, make them original, etc. etc. And also for those RP'ers who really are kind of looking around for ways to make their characters more realistic/believable and all that stuff. Believe me, I've seen a lot of thetm. And many times before, I have even set up the little note that everyone is allowed to completely ignore me! There are indeed some very good half-elven characters out there, and I really don't mind it, it's just something perhaps for the new RPers to consider when they are making their new characters. It's not anything bad to be half-elven, after all, but I find that many people (from my own personal experience, and I've been hanging around the RP world a lot) seek to make their character half-elven because it will make them different from everybody else, and maybe stand out a little bit more. And one of my points here was that it's becoming a rather popular idea, so...like I said, it is merely something for anyone to consider. Otherwise, let your imagination run wild! 
but I am very sorry if I have offended anyone. Have fun RP'ing! 
, but it can be a royal pain when you do come across someone like that. I think an example to set here from my personal experience was this one RPG character that was (try to follow me here): The daughter of Aragorn and Arwen, the girlfriend of Legolas, the wielder of the element of fire, a warrior of Rohan, had surpassing beauty given from her ancestor Luthien, rode some kind of horse that was related to Shadowfax, and a few other things that I can't remember. It just made my stomach do a few cartwheels on me.
