You have not even read LotR, how can you be offended when Obloquy calls you a newbie? What he said was 100% accurate. And if you are not a newbie, then who is? Someone like Obloquy maybe? No wait, I know, Ulmo is a newbie, yup that hast to be it.

BTW, How are you writing LotR fanfic without even knowing the exact story? You can't honestly tell me that you think the movie is word for word from the books? Here is something you should try: instead of writing fanfic, try reading LotR. Unless you are an extremely slow reader it shouldn't take more than a month. I know people that have read LotR in less than a week even. Go ahead, pick up a book, just try it.

Next time someone calls you a newbie, don't take offense, read the books and prove them that you know what you are talking about and that you belong here. Not reading LotR and insisting that you are not a noob is just dumb.
