Your analogy is flawed, however. If one say "one does not simply walk into Mordor" then one is still outside of Mordor.

I'm not sure how I understand how the analogy is flawed.

One does not simply walk into Mordor.
One does not simply walk into the forums.

Mordor = forums.

Who is in the forums?

Yeah, I guess lined up like that it makes sense.

Ok, make me Grishnakh.

So you try to steal the Ring, let the Hobbits go after the Orcs invade (only real thing you do), watch many old friends get slaughtered by invading Orcs, run back to the city with your tail between your legs, go back to lead a suicide charge, out of 200 or so men you're the only survivor (barely), your father tries t burn you alive (along with him), and spend the rest of the movie doing jack shit becase you're recovering from wounds that you sustained while leading said charge.

Fits you perfectly.

Faramir never tried to steal the ring. Methinks you need to go back and re-read a few chapters...:)

Furthermore, he didn't really do "jack shit" while recovering from his wounds. His affair with Eowyn while in the Houses of Healing snapped her out of her depression and (although it isn't explicitly stated) quite likely prevented her from committing suicide.

It's pretty depressing that there are no n00bs wondering why the name changed. Our community isn't growing anymore. I blame funky.
