How much time it woud take to corrupt you, anon?
How much time it woud take to corrupt you, anon?
None. I don't like jewelry its itchy.
I wouldn't be corrupted. I would listen to what it had to say, and that's what no one did.
Why would it need to corrupt me? Id return it to Sauron to get a nice cushy position when the age of men ends.
I'd just put it on a chicken and lead the chicken by a piece of string.

I don't really have a desire for power. I just want to be left alone.
I'm incorruptible. I'd be like Tom Bombadil. I don't even like rings. The wife hates the fact I won't wear a ring but I hate jewelry. So some dumb ring would have no power over me because I wouldn't even want it. Rings are lame.
You really don't have to wear it, to corrupt you. You can hold it, like Frodo, did as a necklace
a necklace is jewelry and Im not wearing that. Men of pure masculinity and heterosexuality are immune to the ring because we would never carry a ring around in the first place
What about it is so alluring? It's not like you can even do anything with it other than turn invisible.
Pretty fast. I'm a low status man with weak morals and almost nonexistant willpower.
The ring's power isn't to turn invisible its too amplify your inherent abillities.
For a hobbit, who are meek and disappear into the scenery they literally become invisible. But in the hands of Sauron it gives him godlike powers.
oh it would be pretty much instant yeah
Joke's on you Sauron, I'm a shitbag already.
I wonder what it’s like watching these movies when you’re a single female that’s finding it hard to get married.
Pretty quickly. The euphoria of doing good and not seeing any of the negative effect would hook me. It would suck to be you guys.
I'm a moralfag to the point it causes me disadvantages in life. The ring couldn't do shit to me, also I'd also wear it on my cock.
i thought the hobbits were slow to corrupt but in the movie it takes all of 10 seconds to drive smeagol into murdering his close friend
Invisibility is default power for anyone who has a normal, physical bosy (not Sauron). Isildur also turned invisible.
you're a fucking idiot
based and media literate pilled
how would you wield power and lead armies if you’re invisible? sauron thought aragorn had the ring and was just out there being invisible commanding the humans? can you get any power from the ring at all without actually putting it in?
Age of men won't end. Sauron is going to phase off the orcs after war is ended because they are niggers. It would be age of Black Numenoreans, Haradrim and Easterlings because they worship Sauron.
But more important matter is who would you add to your harem after getting some grand estate from Sauron in the part of Middle-earth of your choice. I would pick big titty Umbarian light brown noblewomen.
Invisibility is default power for anyone who isn't part of the unseen world.
it pulls you into the wraith world if you can't control it, the whole invisibility thing is a side effect and only happen because you can't control the ring
my own hobbit harem
That's it, I'm speedruning to Barad-dûr.
Yes. Frodo uses the true power of the ring once in the whole book.
'Down, down!' he gasped, clutching his hand to his breast, so that beneath the cover of his leather shirt he clasped the Ring. 'Down you creeping thing, and out of my path! Your time is at an end. You cannot betray me or slay me now.'
Then suddenly, as before under the eaves of the Emyn Muil, Sam saw these two rivals with other vision. A crouching shape, scarcely more than the shadow of a living thing, a creature now wholly ruined and defeated, yet filled with a hideous lust and rage; and before it stood stern, untouchable now by pity, a figure robed in white, but at its breast it held a wheel of fire. Out of the fire there spoke a commanding voice.
'Begone, and trouble me no more! If you touch me ever again, you shall be cast yourself into the Fire of Doom.'
By the time of LotR that would be only Sauron, wizards, Glorfindel and Galadriel.
the book isn’t canon to the movie
I have no love for life, I would use it as soon as I got it and tried to conquer the world. If I die, so be it.

Got you bro. This one actually got the ring right.
An hour maybe.
I'm pretty sure Smeagol's family were complete weirdo rednecks from some bumfuck swamp, and not the noble hobbits of the Shire.
see smeagol was already a shitbag
The chief power (of all the rings alike) was the prevention or slowing of decay (i.e. 'change' viewed as a regrettable thing), the preservation of what is desired or loved, or its semblance – this is more or less an Elvish motive. But also they enhanced the natural powers of a possessor – thus approaching 'magic', a motive easily corruptible into evil, a lust for domination. And finally they had other powers, more directly derived from Sauron ('the Necromancer': so he is called as he casts a fleeting shadow and presage on the pages of The Hobbit): such as rendering invisible the material body, and making things of the invisible world visible.
everyone literally everyone always forgets Elrond holds the Ring of Air the most powerful of the Three and is Motherfucking Eärendils Son
So for example for me it would make my dick the size of a trillion Ancalagons
Why people think Glaurung was that big?
that doesn't mean hobbits turn invisible because they are sneaky you dipshit, it tempts Sam with the power to grow things for instance, it makes people invisible because it pulls you into the wraith world if you don't have control of it
read the tale of Turin, he was that big
He hasn't seen the light of the Two Trees therefore he is not the part of special club.
damn you can't even read your own quote
finally they had other powers, more directly derived from Sauron
such as rendering invisible the material body,
where's that innate hobbit stealth skill you pulled out of your ass?
yea thats true on the other hand he's Eärendil's son
On the pic he is so big he could eat Smaug in one bite. In the CoH he has to pull himself over the ravine and can fit on the Nargothrond bridge.
he was also so big he was resting over a massive gorge that turin climbed up, Glaurung is a very big lad
What the fuck are you talking about you sniveling retards.
I am just quoting Tolkien exactly what he thinks the ring does.
Show me the fucking claim you pretend I made.
How insanely stupid are you that you can't read such a simple clear statement from Tolkien and then still argue against something that I have not said.
damn you can't even read your own quote
Peak irony.
Because they never read Tolkien and all their knowledge comes from that terribly wrong pic that keeps being reposted again and again.
Sauron was the hero all along?
no you aren't this
For a hobbit, who are meek and disappear into the scenery they literally become invisible. But in the hands of Sauron it gives him godlike powers.
is bullshit, it also turned Isildur invisible I suppose it was "amplifying his inherent abilities" too right? you fucking idiot, the Ring drawing its wearer into the wraith world has absolutely nothing to do with the "enhanced the natural powers of a possessor" part of the power, you absolute fucking idiot.
only have to wear it around your cock and balls during sexy time with the missus
you said
For a hobbit, who are meek and disappear into the scenery they literally become invisible. But in the hands of Sauron it gives him godlike powers.
you are wrong its that simple.
So?
I have never made the claims that you argue against.
You fucking idiot.
Kill yourself.
I imagined it like this. It would make Glaurung big but not that much bigger than Smaug.
you literally did its right here now shut the fuck up you idiot
you said
No I did not you fucking idiot.
I posted this: Look at that post.
Look inside the text of it.
Do you see what you just quoted?
No?
Exactly.
You fucking moron.
hobbits
meek
sure but still pretty big more then enough that it didn't bother him to sleep over a massive gorge
You replied to the wrong person then you fucktard, how fucking brown do you have to have such a eucalyptus tier brain.
Poke your eyes out, you're not using them anyway.
I'd slide it onto my skinny pecker. No one would dare find it! I charge them with rape!
I don't remember him sleeping over the gorge. Am I retarded?
so you didn't post this? so you agree the idea it turned frodo and bilbo "invisible" had nothing to do with them being sneaky? right?
Get a room.
The ring makes me goon for even longer
so you are saying that the Ring turning people invisible has nothing to do with "inherent abilities"? cool we can all move on then
Which dravidian language province do you hail from?
yes I'm sorry but yes you are, you should read the story of the Children of Hurin its badass
Now Turambar came to Nen Girith at sundown, and there he learned that Glaurung lay on the brink of the high shores of Teiglin, and was like to move when night fell. Then he called those tidings good; for the dragon lay at Cabed- en-Aras, where the river ran in a deep and narrow gorge that a hunted deer might overleap, and Turambar thought that he would seek no further, but would attempt to pass over the gorge. Therefore he purposed to creep down at dusk, and descend into the ravine under night, and cross over the wild water; and then to climb up the further cliff, and so come to the dragon beneath his guard.
Then Turambar summoned all his will and courage and climbed the cliff alone, and came beneath the dragon. Then he drew Gurthang, and with all the might of his arm, and of his hate, he thrust it into the soft belly of the Worm, even up to the hilts. But when Glaurung felt his death-pang, he screamed, and in his dreadful throe he heaved up his bulk and hurled himself across the chasm, and there lay lashing and coiling in his agony. And he set all in a blaze about him, and beat all to ruin, until at last his fires died, and he lay still.
lol knew it was you, so to clarify the ring doesn't turn hobbits invisible because they are sneaky the anon that posted that shit is a fucking moron, glad we agree
narrow gorge that a hunted deer might overlap
That part probably got me.
you should read the story of the Children of Hurin its badass
I did, but I might reread it once again. Which version would you read?
Obviously, those two abilities are unrelated according to the one text I posted.
You should still cut out your eyes though as penance for being a illitertard.
The minute I found out about the cool fire trick with the hidden text.
Six seconds.
lol knew it was you,
You don't know shit you dick eating dravidian golem
I like Christophers one, but the story in the Silmarillion is the one I've read the most times, I did like Chris' one though
so we agree, good, your childish insults notwithstanding
I have no idea what you are talking about you bizarre jeet, you agree with me thats really all that matters
your childish insults
You earned them when you started it
Sorry you can dish it but can't take it
w/e you say kiddo
It is what is, you started shit, I threw it back at you
ok kid
The Christopher one cuts the biggest kick in the balls.
Turgon, Turgon, remember the Fen of Serech!
I'll have to read it again I didn't realize it didn't have that, usually I'd just re-read the Silmarillion, I've only read Children of Hurin a couple times
It ends with Morwen death, which makes sense for a stand-alone book. If they included Hurin's travels they would have to include Fall of Doriath or leave the plot threads loose.
oh yea, its been ages I really should re-read The Children of Hurin, Chris's one, guess for me it all got mixed up over time.
The ring is Sauron and has the powers of Sauron.
People turn invisible because Sauron is a spirit and they are getting shifted into the spirit world.
You need to be already powerful to access more of Sauron's powers.
Humans and Hobbits cannot do anything useful with the ring other than extend their lives and turn invisible to other humans (but not to spirits).
The kings of men had their lives extended 5,000 years by their rings because they are linked to the One.
But giving life is a power of God, and above Sauron, so they can't exist as anything other than invisible mindless slaves.
Nazgul seem badass but above all they are slaves.
Sauron wants to order everything perfectly because he is autistic.
well said
