This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

It wouldn't turn a human invisible because it only turns hobbitis invisible.

See: the intro to the first movie. Isildur, after his victory at Mt Doom, uses the Ring to turn invisible in attempts to escape a group of orcs that attacked his party.

Had forgotten about that, I always tough it just gave power to the user, what power? That's depends on the users desires and ambitions, and because Hobbits are not a lot into desires and ambitions, the ring wasn't particularly powerful in them, neither had a lot of power to corrupt them.
