The seventh gate is really dumb in lore.
Also why are we building Gondolin in the LORD OF THE RINGS

Do you know what the theme builds mean?
They are to show your skill set in order to become artist. These builds have nothing to do with the main server nor is any theme build used for the main. So it doesn't really matter what the theme build topic is.

Will_em, thank you for clearing that up. Is there a place for a new person (almost decent builder) to practice and learn new skills or is that something I need to do elsewhere?

You can practice and learn new skills with themed builds, but if you want to build more freely, go to the lore-appropriate or off-topic world (/warp spawn). But be sure you read the rules for freebuild http://www.mcmiddleearth.com/help/terms.
