Demonology Revival

[Chook in Perth 2,109]

I've surprised myself at how easy I've made the transition here. Not really missing Ology at all.

The 95 page threads here do my head in. but otherwise I'm focused on keeping my "like" count above my post count. Concentrates the mind and stops me from writing mindless tripe on said 95 page spreads.

RIP Ology you glorious bastard.

PS: I hope Rono hasn't necked himself through frustration at losing his bragging outlet.

We haven't given up but we need to get some data and information about the site in order to at the very least be able to retain the wealth of material that formed the Demonology site and have it available for people to see and read. Having a message board reinstated is probably the easy part if people want it.

I have been a member of Demonology for several years, but can no longer get into the site.

It would seem that many others also have this problem.

Can someone please tell me what is happening? Are they aware of this? Will the fault be remedied? If so, when?

I have seen some angst here on Demonland regarding Demonology. I find this unfortunate as both sites involve people who love our football club. It is not as though another club is involved.

I would guess that people from other clubs would be laughing when they see Demon supporters ripping each other apart.

See above but basically the site needs to be rebuilt, as the server its on has gone to the dogs.

No matter what place, we all sing from the same hymn book.

But I miss the music threads, the whimsical anecdotes and the general [censored] talking over a virtual pint.

Seeing that no one has been able to guess the password, and by my reading no one was going to attend the meeting, is it fair to assume that Ology is now dead....for lack of permission to apply (apparantly) a simple fix?

That is very depressing.

As Smithy observed, while not critiscising either site, Ology is easier to read and allows more 'stupidity'; an essential attribute in my opinion.

Let Mark Robinson have the monopoly on sententious moralising from a bloke who never played, couldnt play and shouldnt....as in. " I believe that football,as in life, there are certain values that are sacrosanct and speak to the meaning of our existance, blah blagh ablah blah....geez look at the hooters on that one (snort snort)"

Personally I miss Ology and all the fun it provided me.

Get Julian Assange on the line. He'd fix it in about 10 seconds flat...

Hack in & reset the password, to allow access. Is that possible?

Is it possible to start afresh? Sacrifice the data and start again? Or is it worth the bother? Too much hard work, by the sound of it.

Back online.

Well ... err ... cya.

[Sir Why You Little 37,134]

There is response over there.

Maybe the Norm Statue has breathed life into 'ology again.

[My TD 156]

Back online.

Well ... err ... cya.

Wait for me .....

[Guest bluey]

Yeh..Thanks..

[Whispering_Jack 30,674]

Well done.

I hope someone thinks to save as much information as possible in case this problem arises in future.

Good luck to all Demonologists and don't forget the game on 21 October 2012.

LOTS OF GOOD STUFF ON BOTH BOARDS..

hopefully new members will be able to join Ology soon enough for a fresh influx of genetics.

just don't expect 15 page threads. we're either not smart enough or too old to keep up.

Obviously.

I had to edit a two line post

[Nasher 33,617]

Or it displays 50 posts per page where this one displays 25.

That said I reckon thread length is just proportional to the number of active posters. As you'd have noticed, it's not 15 pages of to-ing and fro-ing usually, it's 15 pages of individual posts from people splatting the contents of their brains on to virtual paper.
