There has been a lot of statistical and historical input in to Ology, in particular work done by Graeme Smith, and this work was supposed to be available to all concerned when they had re written the site.

it was all about the history of the club and the history of the players; this work will now, not be available unless the new owners allow it and it really doesn't belong to them or in fact the previous owner.

That's my understanding of the situation unless someone wants to correct me.

Now you've had your fun so zip it.

Unless you really have a valid point to raise or something of interest to contribute?

Gotcha Robbie. Was it more in depth (or better) than the Demon Wiki? All I've known of 'Ology is the forum.

I'm honestly not trying to "have fun" or anything like that, I'm just trying to understand the side of it where people are saying the new owners will effect the club itself, and they plan to make heaps of money off it. That's all I've been searching for answers on from the start. I've posted links to the internet laws regarding parts of this situation, I've read all the posts, but I honestly don't understand two things:

1) How a free internet forum suddenly becomes a get rich quick scheme?

2) How an unofficial internet forum effects the image/reputation/running of MFC itself?

I'm honestly not trying to cause trouble. I keep asking those questions, but I get called a troll in response, with no answers.

Didn't post as Mikey on Ology by any chance, Stuie?

Similiar levels of.... well everything actually.

Ah that's who Stuie is! Didn't he also get turfed from the 'Ology? I believe he had the reputation of being the most annoying poster there before Doctor Who took it away from him.

I'm Stuie in both places.

Ironic when you get called a troll while this rubbish is directed at you.

Just read this thread top to bottom and I must say it's a page turner. Having never posted on demonology I found this thread akin to the The Da Vinci code with it's obscure references, shadowy figures, secret societies and red herrings. Dan Brown take note here lies the basis of your next book.

Just a quick post to let anyone who may not know already that the Mario Brothers have handed control of Demonology back to Tim - I think it got a little too hot in the kitchen. Already there have been many offers help to Tim get the site up and running efficiently, so it appears that the site may need to be renamed Lazarus.

I know there were some who didn't have a high opinion of the site, but it would still be nice to occasionally visit and help the site gather some momentum... there is plenty of room for both Demonology and Demonland to co-exist comfortably - as became very apparent in the now locked RIP Demonology thread, many of us here are also members there.

One last thing... please don't turn this topic into another slag/slug fest.

Demonology.me

Most of us have lost our log in privileges at demonology, we are setting up a new forum at address above, will probably replace old software, see you there.

Is that still operational or is it offline while updates are being made... for the past couple of hours at least all I can get is the Crazy Domains website when I try that address. I had assumed that since Tim had taken control of Demonology back into his own hands, that the newer version (dawsi03's site) had been shelved for the time being.

Nah, when I type demonology.me goes straight to it, (note the .me)

Nope... still going to Crazy Domains... strange

I had the same problem for a while. Probably has something to do with isp's and dns', although I have no idea what either of those mean.

I've joined up (pending approval!) and look forward to discussing some footy again.

Must say that I had lost the will during the Neeld years and the time difference being in the UK.

No luck yet?

It's strange... I am on my work PC at the moment and having no problems accessing the site; it appears to be from my home MacBook Pro/PC (I'm running a dual boot system with Windows 7 in Bootcamp). It may be just a cache issue, but it is happening in both Safari on the Mac side and Firefox on the Windows side. Anyway, will check it out this evening when I get home.

No... all good now though... it is all working now despite the fact I didn't have to clear my cache or do anything special. Weird.

dns servers (the ones that translate an ip name to an IP address) can take time to receivet updates

the ones at your isp might have been one of the later ones

    HEAVEN OR HELL by The Oracle

    Clashes between Melbourne and St Kilda are often described as battles between the forces of heaven and hell. However, based on recent performances, it’s hard to get excited about the forthcoming match between these two sides. It would be fair to say that, at the moment, both of these teams are in the doldrums. The Demons have become the competition’s slow starters while the Saints are not only slow to begin, they’re not doing much of a job finishing off their games either. About the only th

    THE BLOW by Whispering Jack

    Narrm’s finals prospects took a crushing blow after the team’s insipid performance at Optus Stadium against a confident Waaljit Marawar in the first of its Doug Nicholls Round outings for 2024.  I use the description “crushing blow” advisedly because, although the season is not yet at it’s halfway mark, the Demons have now failed abysmally in two of their games against teams currently occupying bottom eight places on the ladder.  The manner in which these losing games were played out w

    HALF FULL by KC from Casey

    It was a case of the Casey Demons going into a game with a glass half full in their match up against the Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields on Saturday. As the list of injured and unavailable AFL and VFL listed players continues to grow and with Melbourne taking all three emergencies to Perth for the weekend on a “just in case” basis, its little brother was always destined to struggle. Casey was left with only eight AFL listed players from who to select their team but only two - an out-of-form

    POSTGAME: Rd 10 vs West Coast

    Many warned that this was a danger game and the Demons were totally outclassed all game by a young Eagles team at Optus Stadium in Perth as they were defeated by 35 points.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 10 vs West Coast

    It's Game Day and the Demons have returned to the site of their drought breaking Premiership to take on the West Coast Eagles in what could very well be a danger game for Narrm at Optus Stadium. A win and a percentage boost will keep the Dees in top four contention whilst a loss will cast doubt on the Dees flag credentials and bring them back to the pack fighting for a spot in the 8 as we fast approach the halfway point of the season.

    WARNING by William from Waalitj

    As a long term resident of Waalitj Marawar, I am moved to warn my fellow Narrm fans that a  danger game awaits. The locals are no longer the easybeats who stumbled, fumbled and bumbled their way to the good fortune of gathering the number one draft pick and a generational player in Harley Reid last year. They are definitely better than they were then.   Young Harley has already proven his worth with some stellar performances for a first year kid playing among men. He’s taken hangers, k
