Cinq membres?
Euh, non.

What a sucky troll group. Find something more impressive and I'll reconsider. Also, why are you encouraging me?


Gabby si vous nous laisser seuls. peut-être faire votre propre groupe, vous pouvez inviter tous les trolls Goodread?

J'ai aussi trouvé un autre groupe; 28 membres, est-ce que répondre?

You guys should have noticed in the first place that "troll" is in the original posters name


Gabby Yes. I did.

Stéphanie Jeez.. I am from europe. and i have never heard someone call americans stupid, only fat and lazy (sorry i don't share the same opinion). but this is why i think goodreads should have moderators who can block certain people from topics and forums. the only reason why catherine is bothering to comment is probably because she is bored and hasn't got a life aside from the internet.

is all this really necessary?


message 61: by Jeni (new) - rated it 4 stars

Jeni No, it's not necessary, that's why people like the Troll enjoy it so much. I find it annoying and would love a block option.

go to her profile and there is a block button.I already used it.

Eva Catherine you are such a FAIL as a troll. Only WANNABE people call themselves something they THINK they are :) and it is much more ridiculous putting it on your username: "Mademoiselle Catherine le Troll d'Internetz" OMG. It's more like "Bitch Catherine the Wannabe Troll of Internet"

No, I was just kidding about being European. But the stereotypical "stupid American" or "ignorant racist redneck" are both good trolling techniques. I am studying French, though, and I eventually plan to move there (trust me, I don't act anything like any of my Internet alter egos).


message 70: by [deleted user] (new)

Also, you do realize that blocking only prevents me from viewing your profile or adding you as a friend, right? It's pretty ineffective here.

That's a relief. I was starting to wonder if there really was a contradictory idiot like you wandering around on the streets.

Sy Even though they are both really good actors, Jace is pretty young, and i think they're too old for the role.

The fact that people think I'm disturbingly stupid or really batshít insane alludes to how convincing of a troll I am.


Halle Why call yourself a troll? That seems a tad excessive. If you are, in fact, a troll, then it is understood.

Just Halle wrote: "Why call yourself a troll? That seems a tad excessive. If you are, in fact, a troll, then it is understood."

I don't consider this account to be one of my TRUE troll accounts, hence the reason I am being blatantly obvious and clearly not putting in much effort. When I'm trolling for realz, I generally make myself sound convincingly insane/psychopathic, unhealthily obsessive, really stupid/incompetent, etc. the times I actually label myself a troll are when I'm trying to take advantage of the satirical and sarcastic nature of calling myself a troll.


Halle Okay, whatever. I'm going to answer your original question: Jace can't be played by an African American actor because he's white. Plain and simply put. And your suggested actors or way too old.


Stéphanie Just Halle wrote: "Mademoiselle Catherine le Troll d'Internetz wrote: "Stéphanie wrote: "Jeez.. I am from europe. and i have never heard someone call americans stupid, only fat and lazy (sorry i don't share the same ...

i dont understand why you feel like you should fight back at someone who didn't say anything bad about you



Stéphanie this is really tiring


message 79: by [deleted user] (new)

I'm sorry for trolling. Now can we be friends again?

I should've created a troll account rather than use my serious one for trolling, but I guess my GoodReads reputation is shot now, eh?


Alexa Lol, I can't believe you guys are getting worked up over this :3 it's kinda funny.


Halle It's not the topic. It's her. She calls anyone not agreeing with her 'racist'.


Nicole D. Just Halle wrote: "It's not the topic. It's her. She calls anyone not agreeing with her 'racist'."

Block her.Catherine is just trying to make trouble.


Johanna the Hydrofax the internet troll is just messing things up in another chat group. ignore her. i think she just is obsessed with annoying people. f off troll! troller no trolling!

In the books Jace isn't described as black. If the movie is trying to potray the books then that wouldn't suit very well. Jace should also be potrayed as the right age if the movie is trying to stay true to the book.

Your're right...if people were doing it solely because they want certain actors just because they were white, black, latino, whatever, that would be wrong. But in this instance I think most people want the character to be potrayed as the book is written and as far as I know Jace is white toned, 17, and probably won't be potrayed by black toned actor. I'm sure a black actor could very well act out a Jace like personality...the question is whether it would be as the book described...and it wouldn't be.

I'm a little confused though because I believe you know all this already and you obviously don't need or want me to explain it to you.

Oh...now I get it. You just wanted to waste your time being "insane/psychopathic, unhealthily obsessive, really stupid/incompetent"

Gotcha

Thanks. Just did that. I didn't notice it before and never blocked a member before. But I think there is always a first time for everything, especially for useless thing.

I think you're a really cute troll, actually. There are more malicious trolls than you out there.


Joannne both great actors but too old for the role

Leah They're too old


Sydney Do you know how old Will Smith is? Morgan Freeman? They are around 50-60 years old. Do you know how old Jace is? SEVENTEEN!

Will Smith is, like, 44 or something. Your argument is still valid, though,

Leah Everyone needs to calm down, it has nothing to do with race, it's the age. You can't have an older person playing a teenager because it's kind of creepy.

Sophia Seriously, why do you even keep mentioning racism? Do you have some sick obsession with it or what, just shut up about it. And btw I speak french and tu es plein de merde (My best friend is from France :P

So ur not only a racist yourself (cuz u keep mentioning it) ur also obsessed with Jesus (and don't contradict me, I'm catholic bitch :P ) which is known as a Jesus Freak. Let me guess, you are a Jesus Freak cuz u think you can read palms and tea cups and can read a crystal ball, you think your blessed with a gift from GOD ALMIGHTY! well just freaking shut up about racism cuz with that attitude ur going to hell, so don't tell me where I'm going cuz if ur going to hell I don't want to be anywhere near you!
