In some respects I agree. The point though is that the persons creating the havoc appear to be motivated by the opportunity to make money (for who and what we don't know?) and have leveraged the opportunity off their association with and volunteer work for and inside the MFC.

This goes to more than a simple of issue of the web being the wild west and may have implications of governance for the MFC?

Probably not.

Again you've missed the point, that the person(s) involved has or have done volunteer work inside the club.

So what though? They don't work for the club, they're not running the site on behalf of MFC. Why does it matter?

God you remind me of Dr Who sometimes...

Still waiting for you to tell me this Dr Evil's plan on making one million dollars from that trash can free internet forum....

Probably not.

I'll err on the side of caution thanks. It's not up to me or you decide, but the people involved have been less than forthcoming.

And fair enough, its all pretty murky at the moment.

Granted, less serious than if they were paid employees but volunteers must still adhere to a code of practice. I've already said I don't know on whose behalf they are acting. Do you? If not, it does matter.

On whose behalf they are acting for what??! It's a free internet forum. It has NO power. I know it's annoying they're mucking the place up, but it has no implications for MFC whatsoever.

Just ignore me and resume panic.

im not panicked. I don't think Dr Who having my ology password is going to result in my properties being sold to Nigerian gangsters.

But I, and many others, spend years and years contributing to the site. Forgive us if we're miffed that its been destroyed.

For a bloke who claims not to care you've spent all day posting in this thread.

Take a breather fella.

OK then, what action can we take? Proposal:

Don't renew membership. When called by the club (maybe even by D2D) tell them you won't renew untill the club has clarified the association between the club and the [censored]. Then stick to it.

Alternative: state you don't give a damn and stop clogging up these threads.

Cheers. Noticed you quoted BH in your profile. Did you understand his post or did you only notice the error in grammar?

That part of it I have no problem with, and I have said that more than a few times here. You have every right to be cut about what's happened to 'Ology, but the panic about "mystery men" and "D2D" and "MFC governance" is kinda crazy.

That is absolute sheer stupidity.

MFC has nothing to do with 'Ology, and to take away your support for the club because of it is ridiculous.

My thoughts exactly Chook.

If you don't like it nor understand it, then resume your annoying behavior on other threads and continue with your childish video clips.

Or even better, head over and sign up, you'll be right at home with the current hierarchy.

Ah well, so it's dead and gone then. Move on I say. Wouldn't have thought so many would cry over it.

As my old man would say: you're so full of it you should be a nightcart.

I'd rather name you a troll.

Someone please ask Tim Stanes if he knows Gareth is the brother of the person who trashed the site all year and ask him how we can faith in someone who has denied that he was the brother of DrWho when we know that to be a lie.

Sadly Tim has no idea of the types of lowlifes he is dealing with!

Ed. and let him know we all wish him well.

HAHA! Kevin Nash would be real handy in reaching things in the top cupboards!

If he didn't tear his quad while doing so. ;)

Hello everyone,

My apologies for not sharing this with you earlier, but I suppose it is better late than never; and while I'm at it, I am very sorry for my long absence from the site. I hope this post will explain both!

As some of you may remember my health has been on the slide for some time. I finally have had a diagnosis after all this time. I have multiple sclerosis.

The diagnosis has cleared a lot of issues up for me. In this case, my increased inability to maintain Demonology.

A stage in the illness came at an unfortunate time; when I was rewriting the site to run on the I.S.P.s servers, which no longer supported the language in which I had written the it. Sadly I lost the ability to write code. I could not understand why. Now I do. Consequently much of the original functionality an all of my planned improvements were not completed.

I had been feeling guilty for letting you all down, but there was nothing I could do about it. However hard I tried.

It was not long after my diagnosis (which was in May/June) that Gareth approached me, via some people who I know quite well and whose judgement I trust.

Needless to say, it was with great relief that I passed the site over to Gareth.

I understand there has been some confusion and consequently come conflict regarding the new management of the site. I've not read the related posts and at this stage am not up to delving into the issue.

All I can do is ask that you take Gareth's posts in good faith an be aware that he has my support.

On a more personal note, I have just had my first treatment for multiple sclerosis and am hopeful of regaining some of the cognitive functionality I lost. My pain medication has also been increased which has helped a great deal. Who knows, I may even be able to get to a game of footy next year!

Kind regards

Tim Stanes

This was thrown up on Ology. If its true he has stuffed up big time...

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to
