Was Gil-Galad an elven king? I'd say so. If yes, then he is definitely my favourite elven king. He must have been a very gorgeous character.

Gil-galad was the last High King of the Noldor.

My favorite Elven King would have to be Fingolfin...after all he did fight Morgoth face to face

Turgon, Son of Fingolfin, Lord and High King of Gondolin is my favorite character/ king. If it wasn't for backstabbing jealousy, he would have ruled the Great Hidden city till the End of Days.

Neither Glorfindel nor Cirdan were kings.

Cirdan was Lord of the Falas. He did rule over a population of Sindar, but his title was never king.

The death of Finrod could never be more dramatic and terrible than that of Finrod. Finrod died by the hands of Sauron, while Fingofin died at the hands of he, who arises in Might, Morgoth Bauglir.

Careful SGH, you don't want to turn into a certain mod who likes to close threads..

“What does the term american refers to” asked the boy, and the wise man answered: “Lets look at the dictionary then.”
As an adjective American is:
1. Of or relating to the United States of America or its people, language, or culture.
2. Of or relating to North or South America, the West Indies, or the Western Hemisphere.
As a noun American is:
A native or inhabitant of America.
A citizen of the United States.

Then the boy asked, “What is America then?”, and the wise man looked at the dictionary again:
1. The United States.
2. also the A·mer·i·cas. The landmasses and islands of North America, Central America, and South America.

Confused, the boy asked, “Does the term american refers solely to a us citizen or to any person in North, Central or South America?”
The wise man replied: “What do you think?”, and the boy answered: “It is clear to me that while the term american is used to refers to us citizens, one can also use it to refer to any person who is from that continent too,” the boy thought for a while and asked the wise man, “Am I right?”, and he replied: “But of course.”
The boy wondered, why is it that some people refuse to acknowledge the fact that the term american refers not only to US citizens but to anyone of the American continent?, but then sadly, the boy understood, that it is the calamity of ignorance.

I close threads when I think I have a good reason. I don't like when people post just for the sake of posting and raising their count. I have seen about five to ten posts like that one in the last week. The thread asks who your favorite Elven king is. If you don't know, then what's the point of posting "I don't know." Post when you do know, not when you don't.

And Maedhros, I think you meant to say Fingolfin above instead of Finrod.
