What is with these old threads, unbumped, suddenly appearing?

Teeny bit annoying.

Although good to see Hannibal was patronising 3 years ago...

I've locked all the old threads that have been bumped. Don't want them flooding the boards, especially during gameday when we have better, more current things to discuss.

I'm off to the game soon, but hopefully whoever keeps bumping up the threads gets the message. DON'T DO IT!

No idea who has been doing it but on reflection the message is clear, let's not overrate our kids before they achieve anything. Seems to be a theme at the club over the last decade. Whoever is doing it has a point.

Sorry all, my fault. No intention of pissing people off. I voted in one of the polls without realising it'd bump the whole thread, but when I noticed I'd found a couple of other ancient threads overrating the young list. Not that it's the same situation, but just how quickly things can change.

Now off to the game...

You should ask permission before bumping a thread... seriously who do you think you are bumping an old thread??????

There's a setting I could turn off that stops threads from being 'bumped' if it has a poll and it receives a vote.

The vote bump is good, otherwise polls will disappear much faster than they currently do.

Bumping also allows for people to review contributions. They will be engaged or ignored, no big deal.

I had another name before rpfc, so I am familiar.

But I appreciate you trying to be accommodating...

Something like 'number 27' if I recall correctly.

It was before D'Land got revamped and I just didn't start again for a while.

Was that for Ingerson or Rivers?

I'm guessing Rivers, just thought I would ask. I'm not entirely sure how far back you started. I'm guessing Rivers now....

I don't even remember my avatar.

Was it ND?

Good memory, Nasher...

Bad priorities though. Imagine what else you could be remembering...

And Rivers is right HT. I guess that means I posted from 2004 till whenever D'Land did the overhaul.

I remember all kinds of useless toss, and unfortunately have no control over what I do and don't remember. Your avatar was some bloke with a stern look on his face (an eyebrow raised?). I don't know who it was (didn't at the time either), but I remember he reminded me of Shaun Micallef. :lol:

Reckon you're 100 times the poster now as you were then though.

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the scorching morning heat to bring you the following observations of Wednesday's preseason training session from Gosch's Paddock. HARVEY WALLBANGER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Absent: Salem, Windsor (word is a foot rash going around), Viney, Bowey and Kentfield Train ons: Roy George, no Culley today. Firstly the bad news - McVee went down late, which does look like a bad hammy - towards the end of match sim, as he kicked the ball. Had to

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force as the Demons returned to Gosch's Paddock for preseason training on Wednesday morning. GHOSTWRITER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Kozzie a no show. Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
