    Turbine is offering a special treat for former Lord of the Rings Online subscribers: another Welcome Back Week. Beginning today and running through May 31st, all inactive accounts have been reactivated free of charge just in time to participate in the Third Anniversary Celebration. Players can return for free, join the party, and catch up thanks to a 5% XP boost that stacks with rest XP for even faster leveling. The game isn't the only thing you can enjoy free during the event -- Stable-masters in the game are offering free travel as well. As always, the event is open to all former players. All of your old characters are waiting for you in Middle-earth, so log in, get your Writ of Virtue, and check out what's new in Lord of the Rings Online since you last visited!

    It may be the waning days of the Third Age in Lord of the Rings Online, but the third anniversary is waxing strong. In honor of three years of the road going ever on, Turbine has invited players back to LotRO to celebrate in style. As part of the party, all players logging in between April 21 and June 30 will receive a spiffy Writ of Virtue: The Writ of Virtue: This special scroll will show the Bards that you know the value of revelry and celebration! The Writ grants a passive skill that gives you a 20 percent discount with Bards all across Middle-earth. In addition to the Writ, all monsters across Middle-earth will drop special tokens, which can be exchanged for anniversary gift boxes in the major cities. Turbine is also enticing players with their ever-popular $9.99/month subscription plan, which can be locked down by signing up for 3, 6 or 12 month tours of duty. You can read the full announcement over at the LotRO site!
