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

Teeny bit annoying.

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

The more things change...

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...

I started posting on the old Demonland in November 2002.

I've mellowed so as not to upset softies like you.

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

Why the hell should he ask permission. Plus he didnt even know.

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.

sarcasm doesn't show through computer monitors. i would hazard a guess he was joking

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.

I remember you, and your avatar. I would never have guessed that was you, actually.

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.

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players. DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year. Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE
