Acronym

LOTRO?  LotRO?  LOTRo? LoTRO? LoTRo?

I've seen all of these used.  The official site uses the first.  I'm inclined to use the second, just because as a title (as seen on the official site), the title capitalization of the letters. 

"Oh, you spell it LOTRO,
And I spell it LotRO,
You wield a longsword,
And I wield a longbow,
LOTRO, LotRO, longsword, longbow,
Let's load the whole thing up ..."

I use "LotRO," but will accept "LOTRO." And I pronounce it "loh-troh."

"Lah-troh"

Prof. Tolkien is, of course, spinning in his grave at the acronymization.

Well, in Elvish, the "o" is always long, so... ;)

Have I bragged yet about getting to meet the LotRO Community Manager, Patience, and some of the devs at the Midnight Madness event at launch? I got a cool shirt, too! :)

That link brings up a "your session has expired" error ...

But, anyway, that *sounds* very cool. :-)

When I wear it in public, people don't seem to realize that Angmar isn't a city in the U.S. :P
