No you didn't, FlimFlam. You ranted hysterically, used offensive hyperbole of the kind guaranteed to get a hostile response, and treated other posters with contempt, even the polite ones. That's...

Then there's not much point your posting about it on a discussion forum, is there?


Oh yes. I was actually about to ask if you were, er, let's say acquainted with a certain other recent member...

The first two mentioned are still around. Perhaps they can shed some light on this.



Once again– it was not the bare fact of your criticising Tolkien's work, which you are welcome to do, it...
