Because of the rotation things are forced against the surface of the ring, gravity would not have enough effect to keep you on the ring strong enough. If you have no idea what I'm talking about place some objects in a bag and spin the bag in a circle. edit: Here's a nice little diagram for you http://home.bway.net/rjnoonan/humans_in_space/gravity.gifEdited by squeaky on May 12, 2010 at 08:55 PM Oh look, its squeaky :oooooo Edited by Higuy on May 29, 2010 at 02:16 PM

Assuming that diagram is correct, the influence of an infinite direction of gravitational forces would tear you to shreds (if the gravity is strong enough.)
If not, it would drag you to the center, hold you there, until some other stronger, constant force moved you.
Could be compared to someone holding you underwater until you die.
Then there is the possibility of one part of the ring having a greater gravitational pull than another, meaning that it would cause the others to be the "weak link" and would result in pulling you closer to that part, until the forces are balanced, or you collide with that part, and in conjunction with the centrifugal forces, would keep you there, achieving the effect of gravity as it should be.

Technically the idea of gravity pulling to the center of a ring doesn't work... at all...
This is only true for completely convex objects, such as planets =P
From the inside of a ring, it is almost inverted. You are pulled to whatever part of the ring is closest... You could think of it as multiple objects, since technically it is... It's made up of molecules, which are made of atoms =P
There are NO objects in the center. This means you wouldn't be pulled towards the center ever... However, there are parts of the ring that are not below you... The pull towards those areas would be weaker, because they are further away (If that weren't true, we'd all be on the sun right now, dead, as ashes, and wouldn't have this forum... And in fact, we would be in a completely different area of the universe, where everything else in the universe would be pulled towards as well...)
IF the ring were much, MUCH smaller, you would be pulled towards somewhere on the inside of the ring. The less distance possible, the more you will be pulled towards the center...
The gravitational pull towards the ring's surfaces would probably be a lot less than earth's because it is a ring... And also, weak in general, because it can be observed in the final level of halo 3, that the ring is practically hollow...
