New Forum Software


Demonland

Recommended Posts

I've installed the latest version of the forum software. Please be patient whilst I iron out any bugs and settle on a theme for the look and feel of the site. I know people are set in their ways and get used to the way it used to look but the update was necessary .

In the move we seem to have lost all the avatars so you will have to either find your old one or find a new one. Like the Dees this is a new beginning .

Let me know if you run into any bugs or issues and I will attempt to sort it out.

I seem to have lost the "reply" button when I'm on the iPhone.

How can I quote someone's earlier post?

You either go to the reply box at the bottom of the page or hit the quote button on the post you want to respond to which will quite that post in the reply box at the bottom. Not sure why they've done that...

Yikes, drastic! I'm flexible and adaptable to change - I'll get used to it :-)

I'm not!

But as I have little say I will go along with it.

The red bar at the top is too fluro. I'm having an epileptic fit over here!

Go for a darker red please, like the one from the old site.

As I said, it's a work in progress but attitudes like yours make it difficult to get motivated to spend hours of work to please people who receive it for free.

Well done Andy. The new model has a much cleaner look about it, and the banner is brilliant! Thanks for all the hard work.

ps. If an old fart like me can can quickly get used to the changes, then anyone can.

Please don't take me seriously, Andy.

I would come on here and post if the colour sceme was purple and yellow.

There is a reason it is the most visited fan site in the AFL.

It's a tremedous site and really well run.

Which at the minute has a fluro red band across the top...

Sorry I didn't mean to get cranky and you are a paid up life member so I guess you aren't using the site for free. Sorry about that. I'm just not feeling well today and I was up most of the night ironing out bugs in what was supposed to be a seamless upgrade. I have had to redo the skin from scratch so it will take a bit of tweaking to get it to a state that I am happy with. Also we lost all of our avatars which peed me off too.

Check out the red bar now. I have muted it a little. Also different screens will display it differently.

Anyway it's a good time for everyone to check out their profile settings and adjust you preferences to suit. Also have play around with the site as there are many new features that will enhance your Demonland experience.

Please provide feedback. I welcome it but just remember that I am working my ass off to get things look as slick as possible.

The red looks great Andy.

Just on the Avatars. It's funny, I saw mine in my profile as soon as we moved but had trouble finding it, so I saved the picture from my profile onto my comp an then loaded it again.

That makes sense trust me. Everyone has their avatar in their profile I would wager, if they 'save picture' onto their comp and reload it - all would be fine.

So if you lost your avatar check your profile!

The site colours appear significantly different on my iMac as compared to my other computers.

Also, in re-doing my profile I realised I had listed a bloke who, apparently, left our club last week.

Thanks Andy.

I appreciate this site, and its given me a way of putting Ideas out and learning from others. My only downside has been the derogatory comments from some postors.

But generally it's been beneficial and I've learnt, and caught up in areas I had fallen behind, after turning my back on the game in the past.

The ideas that can be generated from these sites has to be one of the positives that can influence our club to get back up on it's feet & become relevant again.

There is a lot of passion & interest in The Dees and this site helps to promote this.

Lets keep it positive & constructive.

Mine was lost and wasn't in profile. Had to reload.

Good job on the banner Andy. Looks good.

I'm fiddling around with Zoom to see which read feels better. Definitely checking my preferences. :)

    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

    LIFE SUPPORT by Whispering Jack

    With Melbourne’s season hanging on a thread, Saturday night’s game against North Melbourne unfolded like a scene in a hospital emergency department.  The patient presented to the ward in a bad way. Doctors and nurses pumped life-saving medication into his body and, in the ensuing half hour, he responded with blood returning to his cheeks as he stirred back to life. After a slight relapse, the nurses pumped further medication into the bloodstream and the prognosis started looking good as the

    GAMEDAY: Rd 15 vs North Melbourne

    It's Game Day and it very well could be the last roll of the dice for the Demon's finals aspirations in 2024. A loss to the bottom side would be another embarrassing moment in a cursed year for the Dees whilst a win could be the spark they need to reignite the fire in the belly.

    THE HUNTER by The Oracle

    Something struck me as I sat on the couch watching the tragedy of North Melbourne’s attempt to beat Collingwood unfold on Sunday afternoon at the MCG.    It was three quarter time, the scoreboard had the Pies on 12.7.79, a respectable 63.16% in terms of goal kicking ratio. Meanwhile, the Roos’ 18.2.110 was off the charts at 90.00% shooting accuracy. I was thinking at the same time of Melbourne’s final score only six days before, a woeful 6.15.51 or 28.57% against Collingwood’s 14.5.89

    FROZEN by Whispering Jack

    Who would have thought?    Collingwood had a depleted side with several star players out injured, Max Gawn was in stellar form, Christian Petracca at the top of his game and Simon Goodwin was about to pull off a masterstroke in setting Alex Neal-Bullen onto him to do a fantastic job in subduing the Magpies' best player. Goody had his charges primed to respond robustly to the challenge of turning around their disappointing performance against Fremantle in Alice Springs. And if not that, t
