Lord of the Forums/RPF's thoughts

[oyarde]

I liked the books and the movies. For those who never got into the books, there are differences. Anyway, after reading that LOTR is racist thread I got to thinking about the books and started thinking about which character I would be.

I also got to thinking about what character some posters here would be. I see a lot of Boromirs and a few Wormtongues, too

Who do you think you are in LOTR?

I think I'm closest to Galadriel. I can block my mind off to the influence of others (just ask my teachers) and I know I couldn't handle the One Ring.




Ron Paul is a hobbit - a ring bearer.

What about Zip ?

 

[Suzanimal]

What about Zip ?

I dunno. Maybe Wormtongue?

Or Gollum?

These guys are LOTR fans...

No one's really playing my Lord of the Forums game so I have to label everyone. I've been rethinking you - maybe a Gandalf.

I think Swordsmith is a Boromir.

I'm more like Sam.

 

[Swordsmyth]

Don't feel bad, none of us could. Some could bear it for longer, but power corrupts everyone eventually. That is one of the main lessons of the story.


As for who I am? I like to imagine myself more as Treebeard these days.

You are more like Old Man Willow.

Never read the books, never saw the movies...

I guess I ought to one of these days.

Read the books.

Or Gollum?

Yes.

I chose you as Boromir because you keep trying to figure out how to wield government power. Samwise didn't do that.

Do both, Gimli son of Gloin.

Aragorn also wielded government power and Sam supported him, I want to throw the ring in Crack of Doom and put down the sheriffs.

Perhaps Meriadoc Or Pippin would be a better choice since they enlisted in the armies of Rohan and Gondor.

I used the nick “Strider” in a high school class. There was a teacher that wanted everyone to choose an alias for some project.

No, you want to wield it.

Neither Samwise or Aragorn wanted to use the ring to defeat Sauron.

 

[Swordsmyth]

No, you want to wield it.

Neither Samwise or Aragorn wanted to use the ring to defeat Sauron.

Neither do I, there were/are more rings than the One Ring.

I don't want to use the surveillance/police state to crush the opposition or any other aspect of big government, I only want the legitimate functions of small government to provide for the common defense and administer justice.

Be silent, Wormtounge. Keep your forked tongue behind you teeth. No one has a desire to bandy crooked words with a witless worm.

There were a lot of rings but were discussing the One Ring.

Yes, you do.

Sam wished that the spirit of Mordor would spread and that the Orcs would destroy eachother too.

That you think you can use the Enemy's weapon in any just way is exactly why Suz said you're Boromir.
