There is currently a petition on Change.org to get Turbine to offer LOTRO in Russian again.
“Hello. Start a Petition requesting an online game Russification “The Lord of the Rings Online”. The game got interesting with the larger world, but the problem is the language barrier. I think a lot of players from Russia would be very happy to play it in their native language.”
-Translated from the petition page with Google Translate
The petition currently has over 1,000 signatures. If you are interested in signing the petition, you can do so here.
Last year the Russian servers were closed. Russian players were given Turbine Points and some of the past expansions if they created new characters on the EU or US servers.

This was mentioned on this weeks LOTRO Players News, but what you did not mention was the cost of doing this, which is important to Turbine. I don’t think it will happen but would be happy to wrong 🙂
