Now, I don't want to suggest that legomyworld is anything other than what he or she seems to be: a potential hobbyist with an interest in brickfilming. I really don't know. None of us do.
What I do want to suggest, however, is that people reading and posting in this thread be careful with the amount of personal information they're posting and extremely careful about the prospect of meeting someone in real life they've only interacted with online.
I am really shocked at all the comments being made. I wanted to tell you a few things. I have a wife and child and she would have been with me whenever a person comes over. I am not asking to meet at a motel or something. She is a student, umemployed, taking care of our daughter at home. I am right now taking jobs on and off, waiting for loans in order to start my animation studies in June. The fact that my wife is home ALL the time with a child sure lessens the chance that i will do something crazy. Unless, you think my wife will join and if you are thinking that, you are taking it too far. I mean, i have been working through craigslist for years now. My wife found three babysitting jobs through craigslist, in our own home. People have come visited us. Everything is connected now through internet, and we have to trust in these situations. Lots of people are meeting in this way. I am not here to rape a child. That's utterly disgusting. I have been in a bad mood for two days now, not knowing or understadning how to deal with your online abuse. YOu guys make jokes as if the situation is funny. This is why this world is so full of problems. Everybody takes everything easy. Just to tell you, i am also a religous guy. YOu guys make jokes related to child abuse. You should be ashamed of yourself.
I joined this community to get help on my first brickfilm even though i have watched tons of tutorials on all the issues i am facing in this matter. I am on a tight deadline for an important project that is actually for children, and i thought it would be easier if somebody came over to my house and helped me out. And i thought most of the people here are actual grown ups. And if it would happen if it was a child, i would have taken permission from the parents, and I would have gone over to his or her house rather than haveing the child come to me.
I hope this fixes any misunderstanding. In any case, I found help in Germany from a GErman Brickfilmer who was nice enough to meet me on Skype and talk to me about how to fix my mistakes. Oh by the way, he is almost 40 with children and he is well-known in the youtube-brickfilm community. He talked to my wife and saw my child as well. So if you want references, go talk to him. i'll give you the link if you want it.
