Recently, many posts have been made using Mevan's Far Haradrim argument of "Tolkien didn't mention it, but we need content." There have been new, radically noncanon suggestions that use the Far Haradrim tribes as validation.

Therefore, I would like to propose an Amendment to the FAQ.

Cue epic music.

This Amendment would stop the use of the Far Harad Formula (patent-pending) being used to suggest stuff for the West not remotely mentioned in lore, for example a new faction, like the much-loved Helcedain.

This would also eliminate "Well, Tolkein didn't say otherwise" suggestions for unrealistic ideas.

Finally, this would also encourage a degree of moderation in terms of Rhunic, Dark Lands, and Far Harad suggestions, i.e. no more suggestions for new Dwarves in the Dark Lands or Far Harad.

Constructive critiscism is appreciated as always.
