balrog disussion :P (aka WHAT!)

[captain Tarpols]

what happened to all the hobbit moderators that I made??? Oh well :p Congrats webwizard or something like that...:p

[Shanamir Duntak]

All eaten by a Balrog... WITH wings. :lol:

[Fat middle]

things have changed a bit in your absence... where did you loose your finger? ;)

[Morkhon]

Are there any other types of Balrogs?

[Shanamir Duntak]

Yup... at least another type... Balrog without wings... the type there is in my LOTR... :)

[Morkhon]

The Balrog of Moria had wings, be they physical or made of shadow, it still had wings.

[Fat middle]

or pehaps fictitious wings... ;)

[webwizard333]

Should I move this topic to Middle Earth discussion? (though its obvious the Balrogs had wings ;) )

[Shanamir Duntak]

Wings of shadow... this is clearly a metaphor, saying that he had an aura of shadow.

[captain Tarpols]

wow this is off topic ;) Balrogs do have wings. I bet the Balrog in the movie will have wings too (I have read about 2/3 of lotr, past the balrog bit, although i don't remember it saying anything about wings, too lazy to go look, you just got the feeling that it did). now back on topic: I guess the hobbit mods were replaced because all of them were or became mods or forum hosts of some kind so I guess there was no more need for them, and because webwizard would probably actually start discussions, ;) . Now feel free to continue talking about balrogs ;)

[Manwe Sulimo]

I agree, in the movie I think it will have wings... As for in the books, I can't really make up my mind... there are ways to argue for both views...

[Shanamir Duntak]

I guess that's why people argue on the subject...

[Ñólendil]

If I had less restraint I would nuke this entire thread on the account of Balrog-bickering and then leer threateningly at Tarpols for waking up the fiery demon again.

Please, not another Balrog debate! We're talking about moderators!



but I am however convinced that Balrogs have pointy ears

[morkhon]

At least the Hobbit forum is getting more posts now. No longer dieing out. Speaking of things about the forum, when do we get our old post rankings back? I used to be an Elven Warrior, now I'm back to lowly Hobbit.
