Someone Stop Claude
Tue, 8 Feb 2005, 07:42 pmI reckon this has gone far enough. If someone doesn't put a stop to this Claude McNamara then i will notify the authorities. It seems that every time a young girl asks for work, he's there. As a perfect example: there is a post from a young girl 13 wanting a job in acting/modeling. The only person to reply is none other than Claude and he states and i quote "I need someone your age to model a product for me.
If you are interested E-mail me with enquiries and a photo at Claude_McNamara@hotmail.com
I hope to meet you soon and make your drem come tru!
Claude"
Now this coming from the guy who was just looking for young 13-17 year old girls to act in his motion picture with the chance of being noticed by hollywood. Get help Claude and get off this site.

Who me? Yes you!
Thu, 10 Feb 2005, 11:28 pmI think we may be debating slightly different points. Sorry if i didn't make myself clear...but using your analogy...
"I hear a burglar is in the neighbourhood - hey neighbour, why don't put up some security screens on the windows?...BEFORE he burgles you?"
I guess I'm suggesting that there could be some additional exploration of measures to protect against unsavoury elements before something unsavoury occurs. The 'Claude' hoax just simply highlighted a perceived vulnerability with the nature of this site.
In regards to the 'terms and conditions', I used the wrong term, I'm referring to a set of 'protocols' that people must read before allowed to finish registration in regards to how auditions are posted, posting etiquette etc. We can educate people through making reading of protocols a step in registering. Which leads onto my google point - my point is that a teenager may possibly try 'audition film australia' first which negates your efforts with the re-direction. Perhaps that explains why we still get those teen posts popping up once in a while.
I don't believe that registration would be an impediment, as you've already pointed out - many people are registered on this site! But perhaps we can ensure that only legitimate email accounts are registered? If people are passionate about this website and the reasons for registration are explained, i believe people won't think it as an impedence.
And I will call you. ;)
Crispy.
