Pedophile Uses World of WarCraft to Meet Girls

An Australian man was arrested recently after he convinced a 15-year-old girl he met while playing World of WarCraft to run away from home to be with him. He even paid for the trip. How sweet.

The 31-year-old Anthony Taylor formed a relationship with the less-than-half-his-age girl, which eventually led to sexual messages and phone calls. The girl's father found out about the relationship and threatened to kill Anthony, so Anthony did what any self-respecting pedophile would do - he sent her a plane ticket and some money to cover the cab fare.

i cant beleive there was actally a girl playing wow. lol

[the_RED_SCARE]

There is a HUGE population of female players in WoW.

[LJWooly]

WoW is just about the only MMORPG that females will openly admit to playing.

[Prototype]

Female gamers are still a myth

Anyways there are female gamers in WoW; on the other end of the character is a 32+ year old 400+ lb idiot who lives in his mommys basement.

[Pizza The Hut]

World of WarCraft will steal your soul..consume all of your time...and kill any personal life you once had....you have been warned!!! ..lol it should contain that warning with every game purchase

[Twizlex]

And you will be stalked by pedophiles, you forgot to mention that.

[ChrisGTR1]

im pretty shure most people that play wow didnt have a personal life to begin with so their fine with it. now theyve got something to do.

[Sjtrigger]

not surprised...

[SL1M DADDY]

Sorry, but having two children of my own, I would like to see every pedophile strung up by their privates and beaten within an inch of their lives then thrown in jail to rot. It's just a sick person if you ask me.

[Luca Blight]

but you never thought about (or did) hook up with 17 year old girls (not because they were 17, just because they were hot) when you were in your late teens/early 20s? If you ask me, the problem with the whole pedophile thing is the conservative/holier-than-thou nature of the US. The rest of the civilized world has reasonable limits set for "statutory rape". Even the UK which is pretty conservative has it at 16.

[thewhoopimen]

You shouldn't have termed it holier-than-thou. I think it is kind of strange considering the US has so many happy Christian fundamentalists who happily arrange their kids off to marriage at 14. Which conservative wing is maintaining that anything under 18 is considered pedophilism?

[Luca Blight]

The whole family-first, girls are innocent and naive and have to be protected faction.

The whole mandatory minimums with respect to statutory rape is ridiculous in my mind (especially with the bar set so high compared to the rest of the civilized world - France, Germany, Spain, Sweeden, United Kingdom, etc. - basically everywhere). Sure, there should be some penalties in extreme cases where predation is actually proven but in most cases there should definetely be a measure of leniency given to the defendant. It should not just be, "oh you had sex with a minor, you have to serve __ years, no questions asked".

I can't wait to see how many HOMOS disagree with this tomorrow LMFAO.

[CrazzyMan]

and even 15 years girl, can be smarter then 18-22 years old guy, well atleast sometimes. =))

Usually from 14-15 years old, girls body is ready for sex, so, this situation is alittle too harsh.
I can understand when it`s less then 14 years, but 15, oh come on. =)

[t-0_ot-]

In your second post, the first picture looks like she is a transvestite. She look like she got a penis. eww

[PikkonX]

The word pedophile is tossed around so often nowadays that most people don't seem to know what it means. If the girl was 15, what happened is still wrong and illegal, but that wouldn't make him a pedophile since the girl is not prepubescent.

[CBaoth]

Prepubescent is an adjective of the word prepubertal. It directly corresponds to the word prepuberty. Prepuberty is a period of development immediately preceding puberty (14 for boys and 12 for girls). So any girl over the age of 12 is fair game to you?

Now let's take a look at the very meaning of the word child. Merriam-Webster states all the obvious definitions, but 2 caught my eye. 3a - a person not of age and, 5 - one strongly influenced by another or by a PLACE, or by state of affairs. And according to the AMA and WHO, a pedophile is "generally" used to describe those accused or convicted of child sexual abuse under the sociolegal definition of a child (quoted exactly from Wiki no less lol). The girl in question resides in Illinois, and as an American citizen, is subject to US law. Until politicians change the laws, she is a minor until she reaches the age of consent, 18.

Ok, so let's see. It starts as early as age 12, but doesn't end until societal factors (i.e. governments) deem children adults. Therefore, in the US, the term prepubscent categorizes any female child between the ages of 12-18. He's 31 and an adult, she's 15 and mentally immature. HE'S A FRIGGIN PEDOPHILE. It's not loosely thrown around by all people, it's just casually dismissed by the ignorant ones.

[highdro]

a girl playing worl of war craft =O , how come i never meet this girls gamers, all the girls i know prefer their i pod and make up =( any way i hope this bastard rots in jail, if u want a girl go for some one in ur age group, not some younging, fCcking pedo !!! -_-

[sumfood4u]

This like the 2nd case this happened but this Pedophile became lil mama aka "jail bait" Sugar Daddy! Kinda Sweet buying her a ticket an sending her some money instead of asking her to steal from her Father an all but its also totally Sour trying to screw a Young Virgin Pie!
This isn't really about WOW more like Online Pedophile an their pick me up lines! I hope thoes Nasty Sick Pedophile go to Jail an have someone cut off their Privates & Stick it into their mouths!

[White-Sharingan]

silly aussie, kids are for kids

[Nostradavis]

If only all sick twisted men agreed to abide by that rule...

[White-Sharingan]

pretty scary someone disagreed with me and you

there must be a pedophile in the area

[Shadow Flare]

Is it a coincidence the mart hasn't been on n4g for a while

[MaximusPrime]

he is also Power of Green. Yes i saw him yesterday.

[t-0_ot-]

I laughed at that. ahaa

[McKack]

In Australia he's a pedophile, in Sweden he'd be a perfectly normal guy. Isn't the age of consent in Australia 16? So he gets called a fat disgusting murdering raping child-molesting kidnapping pedophile today, but in one year it'd be a lovely relationship? Oh technicality, it tickles mah funnehbone.

[chasuk08]

The age of consent in england is 16 so as long as the girl agrees to it. It doesnt matter how old the guy is if the girl agrees to sex then its perfectly fine. However if she doesnt then thats another story.

[thewhoopimen]

In Japan the age of consent is largely still 14, though there have been motions to raise it to 16. Looks like the vast majority of the world's age of consent is 15-16.

[RecSpec]

"[The police] question him about the girl, at which time he admits he 'thought the age could be a problem.'"

Seriously, some people are idiots.

[Luca Blight]

that you probably would not want to date the girls you meet on WoW.

[the_RED_SCARE]

ChristGTR1,

That is a stupid, fanboy comment buddy. I play WoW and have been for the last 2 years. I work, go to college, live on my own, pay my own bills, go out on the weekends. Your post is unfounded you troll.

[IzKyD1331]

7 months?
it should be 7 years.....

[codeazrael]

or gray to be fair

[Matpan]

He should have aimed for 16 year oldies :P... Well at least in Argentina peophilia is aplicable until the girl turns 16, after that you can have sexual encounter but you cannot live with her (unless you get married) until she is 18.

I mean... unless it is really necessary for this dude that the girl is precisely 15, not a year younger, or older. Well... if indeed he is a pedophile, he sure aims for the "ilegal" so there wouldn`t be much point in pretending he aimed for young girls in the legal age I guess.

Anyways... I don´t have the figures for the average sexual initiation age... I wouldn´t be surprised it has reached 15 for women... They are getting quicker by the day... I just don´t see the surprise in people from different ages getting together (in a healthy relationship, of course, we are not talking about dishonest abuse, which is a different thing)... It is just a trend, I guess...

I am 9 years older than my gf, and her father doesn´t want to kill me... Then again, I didn´t urge her to flee her home over WoW... :P

[mirroredderorrim]

WTB max jailtime for this sick bastard. PST

[Gerard Way]

Guy uses Wow to hook up with kids? HAHAHAHA. Maybe some of those parents out there should try some parenting. Youknow, just the usually talks---no drinking, no drugs, no running off with strange males(no matter what age) that you meet online. I havent heard of this being a common thing on WoW. Usually I hear about the "pervo's" going after the kids on Mayspace.

EDIT: Not saying EVERY parent out there is a bad parent. But I am saying some parents need to do a better job. I know a couple that lets their 15 yr old stay out as late as she wants, she has pictures on her myspace that put most Maxim Models to shame, she has the whole "no one comes in my room" thing going on, and she wears "hooker uniforms". They came to me for help and were TOTALLY shocked when she got preggers by a 28yr old with no job. I told them I was sorry but it was just a matter of time. She was a party-whore too. I told them, it doesnt matter whether its the 18 yr old Captain of The Football Team, or the 30 yr old slacker that still hangs out at highschool parties---some one was gonna nail her.

[MadMax]

Whats wrong with people? Youre not even safe playing a video game these days!

[Perverted]

I feel bad defending the paedophile but what the hell...

I didn't know it was against the law to date 15 year olds? sex is off the table but dating?
At the end of a day a 15 year old is smart enough to make her own mind up. She chose to go, she wasn't forced.
He could really only be sentenced for convincing an under-age woman to leave her home. And I highly doubt that's a real crime.
7 months is too long IMO.

And finally to prove I don't take the side of paedophiles...He seems like a threat if he's tried this before and for encouraging an undrage woman to leave her home he probably should get his head checked out.

*awaits MANY disagrees*

[t-0_ot-]

Uhm.. I'd kill that muhfu¢ka.

[t-0_ot-]

I wonder how many people like this meet guys after thinking they were girls. Since we know how a lot of guys on the internet like to pose as women. ahaha
