Just a heads up from The Hobbit board ... Can't Post

*Link removed* is clearly a rip off of a certain user on TORn. The user also signed up this week.

I'm not sure where it comes on the scale of trolling, but I thought the admins should probably know of it.

Now his life is full of wonder
But his heart still knows some fear
Of a simple thing he cannot comprehend
Why they try to tear the mountains down
To bring in a couple more
More people, more scars upon the land

The heart and sincerity of the original [In reply to] Can't Post

are not yet shown to be strong in the other. The style is imitated but not the substance.

This young one has much to learn from the old, I think.

Talk about seeing what you expect to see [In reply to] Can't Post

I saw the text of the post and never even looked at the avatar. Just assumed it was our Bomby. Would never have noticed it without you pointing it out .

Count me confused.

The next TORn Amateur Symposium is a special edition: the Jubilee TAS to celebrate 60 years of FOTR! If you have an LOTR idea you would like to write about, we'd love to see your writing featured there!

Brilliant! It's an object lesson in The Hobbit as compared to Lord of the Rings!

Sorry, but the critique rang out in truth with such clarity that my words wrote themselves, using me as a simple proxy. I couldn't help it. Wink

Totally [In reply to] Can't Post

I didn't notice until after I replied to that post that it was someone else. Kinda weird.Crazy

"Love woke me up this morning
With a memory
Love came and whispered a story
That awakened a dream,

I am a dreamer, take me higher
Open the sky up, start a fire
I believe even if it's just a dream"
