We're having a big ol' party this Sunday! Those who newly join will get first dibs on the ale and pipeweed! Or you can all just show up anyway and cause a ruckus, that's good too!
We are looking for folks of ALL classes, ALL levels, and ALL interests! (except those interested in such unwholesome things as griefing, hobbit snorting, or the Chicago Cubs).
Stop by the forums to see what's going on and how you can become a part of it!
I have been checking out your website and was very interested in joining the Kin, until I saw this. You had better not be a White Sox fan, or I will have to hunt you down. ; )

Hint: The next baseball town south from the south-side of Chi. ;-}
But to be clear! We are as tolerant and supportive of various geographies as we are of various playstyles! We even have openly-Canadian members of our kinship!
Become a Servant of Process! Eat Oatbarton Fries! Never ever go to Evilswim*! **
*this fellowship does not guarantee getting past level 37 without doing the quests in Evendim
**We do, however, guarantee a rockin' good time and good friends. Even good music. Well, only if Moondog doesn't get involved. Then the dogs start a howlin'...
Aw c'mon Everswim is beautiful! It's like Lake Tahoe but with less skiing and more fire-barfing lizards! The Council can show you how to deal with them! We are servants to no one except Eru Illuvatar and apparently Process! That reminds me that you can't stop Progress! I exclaim!
Come join us! This kin is full of great people; helpful, friendly, and, at times, hilarious. There are usually planned events every weekend, whether it be an instance run or a party at the kin house! Apply at our website, come join the fun!
1.) Are we the largest kin? No. (Who wants to be a faceless name amongst an ocean of blah?)
2.) Are we the most serious kin? No. (In fact, most of us frown on people who take themselves too seriously)
3.) Are we a raid all day everyday kin? No. (We enjoy the continual warmth of a well maintained fire, not a ball of burn out.)
4.) Are we a kin of 12 y/o WoW rejects? H3LL NO! (Most of our members are 20+, with many more surpassing grandparent status... not fuddy-duds, STUDDLY-DUDES!)
5.) Are we a dwarf/hobbit/elf/man only kin? No. (That would just be speciesist!)
6.) Are we "Elitists" that grind until our axes are blunt and our shields are cleaved? No. (We allow "other" kins to be the first to run out of content a week after its release.)
7.) Are we a walk everywhere, emote only using, spend 1 week to complete the great barrows kin? No. (While we do RP/host RP events, and have MANY members that enjoy a good afternoon of RP, WE WILL NOT TORTURE YOU! At least I won't =))
8.) Are we a "whenever I am on, the kin window is empty kin? No. (In fact 24/7 we usually have some midnight troll doing something!)
9.) Are we a, "Thats a dumb question, why don't you leave and go Google it kin?" No. (While we might think it, who wouldn't, we are there to help!)
10.) Are we the absolute kewlest, most fun, most helpful, most mature, most excellently knowledgable kin on Landroval? YES!!!! Well, we like to think so at least. Why don't you go to our website www.secretfireonline.com and look us up? If you see us ingame, chat us up. If you are questing or have question, shoot em our way!
Boy there's been so much chewey goodness to Moria and all our newest members that we've been forgetting to strut and entice all y'all to come check us out in the past month or two. ;-}
Our #1 goal is to provide a community of players that respect the game and respect each other and who have the initiative to go out and play their game and rally others in support!
You can do virtually whatever you want*, and we already have enough great members that you'll have the backup to get it done!
Even when the servers are down, the Council stands tall.
We've just had a run of great new members join but we're always looking for anyone who wants to enjoy the game in all ways with like-minded drama-free folk!
The Council's doors remain open to all; newcomers and vets alike.
We are a friendy little kinship that has been around since before the dawn of time. We specialize in not specializing in anything specific. We have very few requirements we ask of our members: (1) Play your game your way. (2) Don't interfere with anyone else's game. (3) Have fun.

Couldn't have said it better Dom..we don't run on a schedule, if we want to do something, we throw up a post on the kin forums, people sign up and we get 'er done.
We may not be farming the Watcher, but we regularly dine on turtle soup in between gearing up to face the many tentacled beast and chronic bouts of altism.
If your real life takes precendence over your online life, this is probably the kin for you.

Initiative takers ftw. You join us and play the game your way with support, and support other folks playing the game their way.
We do it all, and not at the expense of convenience or fun! We've got enough folks into enough things to make them happen and we always welcome more!
You've never met such a friendly and supportive large kin.
Watch Moondog foil nefarious pie-pilfering plots with perfunctory pernicience!
Vote on lawn ornaments! (Especially the Tower! ~Bzzzt~ You will vote for the Tower ~Bzzzt~)
Listen to classic middle earth hits on the Lute played by me. Such classics include, "The Final Countdown", "The Benny Hill Theme", and "The Theme from Zelda II"!
But most importantly, have a good time with good people who really only care about having a good time with good people.
eWraiths got into our forums for a bit there but now we're back on line and runnin smoother than ever. Come on by and talk about all that hip fresh new book 8 content the kids love! www.secretfireonline.com
Turns out we're a great kinship for couples. They keep flocking in like turtledoves. Dunno why. Probably because our Kinhall has lots of loveseats. /shrug
Salted Beef Delight (Sung to the tune of the Starland Vocal Band's "Afternoon Delight"):
Gonna lose that bacon, gonna do it right
Gonna grab some Salted Beef Delights
Don't have to wait for the grill to ignite
Salted Beef is just so excitin'!
When everything's so much drearier in Mori-aye-ayyyyyyy
And we know HM GS will always be here anywaaaaaaay
The Witch King's in flight
'Cause of Salted Beef Deliiiiiiiiiiiiiiights
Ooooh, Salted Beef Delights
Bilbo's been workin' up an appetite
lookin' forward to some salted beef delights
Rubbin' salt and beef together feeds you right
And the thought of enhanced vitality is so excitin'!
The Witch King's in flight

Ooooh, Salted Beef Delights
So, aside from signing romantic food anthems, what's going on within the Council of the Secret Fire?
* "Where are my pants?" Kin gatherings around our dangerous but delicious Kegs.
* Nightly 'challenge' runs of one (or more) of the Moria instances.
* Twice-weekly, all-kin, non-PuG Turtle runs.
* Nearly a dozen of our kin running "middle" content right now as they level alts; you needn't level alone!
* Some lower content groups running through the revamped Breelands (on-level Great Barrows run, coming soon!)
* The Watcher in the Water! A run at the big squid is coming up in a few days.
As you can see, there's something going on in the Kin at nearly every level of the game. If you're into it, chances are you won't be alone in the Council.
Seventeen staples
Missing out of thin air, yo
What is your problem?
...
(Another haiku, different from the one you saw earlier)
Don't want to go there
I forgot all my money
Wow, you met Whoopi?

I suppose one option would be to be real professional and dignified and write this excellent bulletin, but I don't really go in for false advertising. This is pretty much what it's like on the inside, too.
There's always more room around the Sinister Keg for all comers! For a kinship that'll bolster the effervescence of your playtime without cramping your IRL style, give us a looksee. www.secretfireonline.com
