Hey all

Hey everybody,

Just a note to say hi, not just to get used to this site's different format and introduce myself, but also to find the other Demonologists.

You see, I've decided to defect from Demonology. I'm sick of the infighting, but mainly have been frustrated by the lack of diversity among the membership there - no new members have been allowed to join that site in over a year and a half!!! Good way to kill a website forum. I like a lot of the people there, but the place is getting more and more boring - having only 20-odd regular posters is yawnville.

Anyway, like I said - hey.

G'day Chopper. I myself am an old 'Ology member and, like you, I got sick of the absurd infighting and bullying and same old posters thinking they know everything.

Demonland offers a whole new environment that is absolutely fantastic and the mods, creators of the site and the forum contributors themselves should be applauded. Love it!

Anyway... welcome aboard :)

Welcome Chopper.

I'm on both sites, under different monickers, and have always enjoyed your posts and video highlights on 'Ology.

However I post there only occasionally now for much the same reasons. (Not that I post here much either but I read 'Land daily.)

You only have to check the posts on just about any topic to see which site is current and has a range of usually informed and entertaining views.

If I want up-to-date info I always check out 'Land first. Plus it has great Casey news.

Welcome aboard and I look forward to your contributions.

It's a sad thing the demise of 'Ology. Back in early 2000 it seemed the best of the demons sites but now it just doesn't have anywhere near the input levels it once had. I'm not sure what its future is with Tim's reported illness and the sites reduced functionality, tis a shame

I always wonder/worry that it is one hardware fault & rebuild away from ending

G'day, mine's Deestroy All.

Like everyone else, I'm a huge fan of your brilliant posts.

(I find it hilarious if not ironic that your extremely light jab at Chopper was the straw that broke his back (no offence Chop) and drove him to Demonland. 1. You hardly ever pot anyone in a spiteful way and 2. you are 'Land's most vocal supporter)

Anyway, I too found it funny that it was Nasher that took on the role of the "last straw" :-)

Yeah, I left ages ago. I don't think I can remember my name - it might have been Number 27...Anywho...

The straw for me was having TGR admit that he would prefer he be right about whatever prediction of doom he was professing than for his prediction to be wrong.

The ego of some people...

Yes, yes, I realise.

But I am not that bad.

I've given it the arse too.. all you need to know about the current day posting experience at ology is right here:

http://demonology.midnight.net.au/Index.PHP?Mode=Forum&SubMode=DisplayPosts&MessageThreadID=33647&BoardType=0

I still post there and still enjoy it... just take certain posters with a grain of salt. I figure that on any forum it's necessary to develop a thick skin and not take anything too seriously or, more particularly, too personally.

Besides, this place isn't without it's recalcitrants; the only difference is that there is a far larger posting population so they don't stand out quite so much... but they are there.

    DELUGE by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons overcame their inaccuracy and the wet inhospitable conditions to overrun the lowly Northern Bullants at Genis Steel Oval in Cramer Street, Preston on Saturday. It was an eerie feeling entering the ground that in the past hosted many VFA/VFL greats of the past including the legendary Roy Cazaly. The cold and drizzly rain and the sparse crowd were enough to make one want to escape to the nearby Preston Market and hang out there for the afternoon. In the event, the fans

    INSANITY by Whispering Jack

    Somehow, the Melbourne Football Club managed it twice in the course of a week. Coach Simon Goodwin admitted it in his press conference after the loss against the Brisbane Lions in a game where his team held a four goal lead in the third term:   "In reality we went a bit safe. Big occasion, a lot of young players playing. We probably just went into our shell a bit. "There's a bit to unpack in that last quarter … whether we go into our shells a bit late in the game."   Well

    GAMEDAY: Rd 16 vs Brisbane

    It's Game Day and the Dees are deep in the heart of enemy territory as they take on the Lions in Brisbane under the Friday Night Lights at the Gabba. Will the Demon finally be awakened and the season get back on track or will they meekly be sacrificed like lambs to the slaughter?

    UNBACKABLE by The Oracle

    They’re billing the Brisbane Lions as a sleeping giant — the best team outside the top eight —and based on their form this month they’re a definite contender for September AFL action. Which is not exactly the best of news if you happen to be Melbourne, the visiting team this week up at the Gabba.  Even though they are placed ahead of their opponent on the AFL table, and they managed to stave off defeat in their last round victory over North Melbourne, this week’s visitors to the Sunshi

    WILDCARDS by KC from Casey

    Casey’s season continued to drift into helplessness on Sunday when they lost another home game by a narrow margin, this time six points, in their Round 13 clash with North Melbourne’s VFL combination. The game was in stunning contrast to their last meeting at the same venue when Casey won the VFL Wildcard Match by 101 points. Back then, their standout players were Brodie Grundy and James Jordon who are starring in the AFL with ladder leaders, the Sydney Swans (it turned out to be their last
