I was wondering where you had disappeared to, Mattius. And welcome to the Downs, Seremela! Enjoy being dead!

Dear Alkoonion,
I hope you're quite well again! I just wanted to thank you for all the work you keep doing on this photo gallery. I really enjoy seeing some of the people I know from discussions or the quiz- and quote room. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

@ Diamond 18 : Thanks for the compliment. (Hypnosis?! I sometimes wish I could do that to my younger boy! He doesn't do anything I tell him !! [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img] )

Some people may have read that many chat areas are being closed

Quote:
AUSTRALIA's leading website will close more than 100 online chatrooms to stop child exploitation and prevent pedophiles using Internet sites to "groom" children for sexual abuse.
Microsoft is axing its services in all but five countries in a bid to protect children from unknown users and cut down on unsolicited emails, known as spam.
The move by the company owned by billionaire Bill Gates follows growing evidence that pedophiles are creating bogus identities and pretending to be younger than they are so they can arrange meetings with children.
ninemsn chief executive officer Martin Hoffman said the company was acting to protect vulnerable children from unknown users.

"Concerns raised are that children are involved in chat sites and only later they find out the person on the other end is an adult. What ninemsn are doing is both sensible and responsible."
"Cyberstalking is an emerging problem," Senior Sergeant Peter Rodney told The Advertiser.
"It's becoming a problem and with greater access to the Internet by children it has potential."
Meanwhile, in the United States, Japan and Canada, the chat rooms will continue as a subscription service, making users easily traceable by their credit card details.
In New Zealand and Brazil free chat rooms will continue under the supervision of human and automated moderators.

As I run a web site that has many young people I have a "Duty of Care" to members.

Duty of care requires everything ‘reasonably practicable’ to be done to protect the health and safety of others at the workplace /on the web) and in a bid to help protect the younger members of the downs from predatory animals I will no longer post photos of Downs members who are under the age of 18. If you have your picture up and you fall into this category please pm me so I can remove your picture. I am still happy to post caricatures of members or a suitable replacement pic.

Peace
Alk

Seems like a bit of an overreaction to me... especially as respectable Tolkien sites are not really the kind of places pedophiles go for scouting out kids. Anyway, if you feel you really need to do this (I don't see how anything is different now than it was before, just because Microsoft took some action on chat rooms) I suppose it is a thoughtful action... but I will miss being able to see our younger members' faces, and it seems like we're raining on our own parade because there have been thunderstorms somewhere else.

You really never know Niluial, these sites might be the perfect opertunities for the predetors. What about all the talk concerning meeting up with other members?

I think all people on any web site should never let out any personal information about themselves. Just to be on the safe side. But that doesn't mean that we can't get to know each other, but stating what city you're from, or what your real full name is, is licking the wire a little.

PS: I sent my picture in, and I am only 17, so I guess you won't be seeing it. Sigh. [img]smilies/confused.gif[/img]

You never really know, the world could really just be the last fevered imaginings of a dying man, some strange man that maybe you wouldn't call a man, but something else, maybe. I don't expect that to be the case, and I don't expect anybody in this community to be a rapist. In every thread that I've seen about people meeting other people there have been parents that would not allow it, or cautioning to talk to parents, or etc etc. However pertinent that issue may be, though, it is not this issue. A picture hosted on a website is not going to help anybody get murdered, leastways one on THIS website. The city I live in has more than 100,000 people in it, a million cities have more than that. I live in Norman Oklahoma. My picture is everywhere online. Come and find me, please. I will bake you a cake if you do.

If people start thinking that way on this site, it won't ever be the same. I don't think that anyone here joins the discussions to rape or murder anyone.
And being paranoid about everything won't protect you from anything.
As burrahobbit has said, If anyone finds me, he /she's my guest for a year.
Good Luck.

Hey, hey wait a minute! Ainaserkewen I never said that, Diamond18 did! And anyway I agree with Burrahobbit and Balin999. My picture is also posted everywhere, come find me! I doubt you actually will I am always moving. And I am more likely to be murdered by the guy begging at the shop who wants my car and my money than someone on the net going out trying to find me! But each to his own!

I honestly agree. I have been hit on over the Internet, and I know what to look out for. It really should depend on the merits of the individual, because even though I am 16, I certainly don't act like a 16-year-old. Even my parents say that I'm more mature than some 27-year-olds that they know and work with.

It actually is quite hard to track down a person, and actually end up raping/assaulting them if you are a pedophile. Most people realize what is going on after one or two sentences of talking with the person, if they even talk to them. All of the people that I know wouldn't talk to people who just randomly IM them or email them unless they know them personally.

Huge back flip [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

After receiving many MANY messages I am again willing to post all your pic as long as you are aware of all the possible repercussions. I personally love all the members’ pics and if I had my way I would have you all on the photo gallery. The only item I want Is that if you are young you first get your parents ok.
peace.

Not so fast Alkanoonion.

There are killers and rapists on this site.

I know this because I'm one.

I've been spending hours every day reading and discussing Tolkien so I could find out where you guys live and then rape and kill you.

My other killer and rapist friends tell me it'd be easier to just go after somebody that I see on the street, but I know better.

It's much easier to waste hours reading and discussing a work of literature and then driving around cities trying to match one of the few thousand people with a picture than it is to arrange a meeting through a chatroom.

And no, I'm not being at all one tiny bit sarcastic.

Well, first I argree with what Balin, burra, Nilly, Finwe and the phantom said (though I really am shocked, P, and to think I danced with you at the party [img]smilies/eek.gif[/img] ) But, my point was that the problems that are associated with chat rooms such as in the article Alk quoted, have to do with enticement. Pedophiles meet, talk dirty and/or seduce, then make private arrangements with minors. (So I've heard). So it still comes down to the minor's personal judgement (and the parents' attentiveness or lack thereof, in letting them out the door). On the other hand, there are brute rapists aplenty in the real world, I can't afford to be afraid to simply show my face there (and neither can minors.)

I think that you are so much more likely to be attacked on the street than over the internet (unless you are completely foolish and give out your personal info), much less on this site. And phantom...you crazy cad. [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

Well I am glad you changed your mind Alk. It would have been sad to have seen my photo (the most beautiful of all the Barrow-Downers photos ) go bye bye, for there would have been nothing left to look at in the gallery [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

I am happy though that you cared so much about the well being of the younger members of the forum.

Yea that’s great Alka… not that it actually affected me but anyway that’s great! Oh and Ainaserkewen I must say I was happy that you mistook me for Diamond18, it was an honor! (Ok, ok! I know you didn’t mistake me for Diamond18 you just read the wrong names! But don’t say it, I would like to believe other!)

I would just like to add one last thing… Of all the cases I studied in Law School (I studied Homicide), I only studied two Internet cases the rest of the homicide cases I studied were either family members, close friends, drinks being spiked etc. And come on, if a Homicide Lawyer posts her picture up on Alka’s website it must say something!

Hmm...Alk, the link in your sig doesn't go to the BD photo gallery for me. It goes to a collection of drawings instead.

I'm very glad you're keeping the pictures up, Alk! I would love to send mine in, but my parents probably wouldn't let me . Although it would probably be a lot safer than having it on my own webpage, because that says my real name (hence why it's not in my profile), and I got permission to put it there. I'll keep my fingers crossed! Anyway, you all look great! Mattius, you look like the guy who plays Merry (I still can't spell his name!). Balin999, you do look like Elijah Wood, although not as much as my little brother does.

Edit:Whoa! The BW looks a whole lot like my uncle, who also lives in Virginia. Scary...

That makes you the third person who thinks that I look like Elijah, though I never thought the same way. I guess your little brother resembles him more than I do.
But since I don't mind if people tell me I resemble him too, thanks for the compliment [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

Hey, sorry about the mix-up... honest mistake.

I was just worried that when people start to assume stuff, they get into trouble.

I've been around the internet alot and I know that bad things do happen.
I was really glad when I came to this site that there were so many rules and regulations about conduct and such. I may have jumped to a conclution about murderers being on this site, there probably isn't. But I've had bad experiences and learned my lessons the hard way. I'm just warning the assuming that anything can happen, if you let it.
