Thanks. I used to trip here (and am still in the top 30 on Green Oval), but the incredible (even increasing?) narcissism of our "top posters" led me to cut the cord. I don't *like* having to go anon, because I don't buy the whole anon creed...but on /lit/, there's no question that the contributions of the most prominent tripposters are a net loss for the board.

*Ardwen - Arwen
*Mithrim - Mithrim or mithril
*Eragon - Aragorn
*Angrenost - Angrenost
*Morgothal - Morgoth
*Elessari - Elessar
*Furnost - Fornost
*Isenstar - Isengard
*Hadarac Desert - Harad Desert

*Eridor - Eriador
*Imiladris - Imladris
*Undin - Fundin/Udun
*Gil'ead - Gil'Galad
*Ceranthor - Caranthir
*Isidar - Isiludir

and if I'm not feeling lazy, later I'll screencap some dumbshit things that Eragon fanboys have said

like "we shouldn't judge Eragon for stealing from Star Wars because The Lord of the Rings also steals from Star Wars"

here's the best /lit/ rage material I've ever encountered

it's unused commentary for one of the LotR dvds by these two shit heads who make the most unimaginably stupid criticisms of LotR

also, plagiarism aside, the writing itself is horrible
