Everything about A-U is great but I absolutely love the photo galleries. That was what drew me here actually. It's just huge and beautiful and so nicely organized! ;D

If you think about it, there's nothing unique with A-U, as tons of sites are just like it. The thing that is different however, is probably the number of visitors. The reason why this site is so popular, is probably because it was one of the first LotR fansites, and that made people run to it and they have stayed here too.

Everyone is so friendly. And even though there is a big community, it's like a small-town charm how everyone knows everyone and the webmaster interacts. It's just a friendly, nice place to go to.

nightrider, just go back to the thread you started in suggestions and comments. One of the moderators, Elanor, was kind enough to post my directions for getting unbanned. If you follow those, I'll try to have you unbanned ASAP. You don't need to post it all over the forum for it to happen, though.

u know... i have to say i disagree with frodo and krissy. I don't think this is just another LOTR site... and I don't think it's popular because it's one of the first... (although that probably helps) It's the close knit friendliness.
I mean when i first entered the world of LOTR sites i joined one or two (i won't name names) but i felt very alien and not very welcome indeed. I joined A-U.com and it was different. I was immediately welcomed into the site by 2 different ppl and since then the feeling of warmth has not dissapated.
there certainly is a feeling of togetherness in this place. Yes people disagree and sometimes even fight... but in the end that is what being together is all about, being able to pull through the tough times and come out the stronger for it.
Long live A-U.com.

I voted Other, meaning "All of the above," because I think all those things added together make this one of the best sites I've ever seen ;D

I think the main thing is the size. The site and community are enormous but it is still very easy to make buddies and friends and there aren't a lot of jerky members like lots of other forums. I don't know how you do it but it's wonderful!

Oh, many things. Personally, I am amazed at the incredibly strong community. There are thousands of people here, from Australia to the United States, to the United Kingdom and everywhere else. It's amazing. And the graphics are very well, and the songs too. I think it's the best website I know for the Lord of the Rings. ;D

I think that all of the choices on the poll apply and that's what makes this forum so great!
