Respect

Posted

It amazes me the amount of unrespectful communication on this site towards others. I feel it is some people's mission just to tear apart every thread with no real desire to add something meaningful! Please remember this is a thread for all who love the Demons. We are all supporting and (hopefully) members of the same team. Any little piece of information should be welcomed and not trodden into the ground time and time again. The amount of abuse and bad comments towards some posters makes me cringe and I certainly hope that those that do these posts do not have a bigger issue to deal with like a bullying claim or possible suicide of the receiver as has happened on facebook and elsewhere and to a personal friend of mine.

Be nice and respectful. You may feel better for it!

 

Well said Demoneyes.

I hardly post for that exact reason. Too many times comments are quoted and shot down, it actually started putting me off coming to Demonland. Which is not good. We should all feel free to comment. If you don't like it, ignore it. Simple.

Well said Demoneyes.

Everyone should take note.

 

Well said Demoneyes.

Can we all respect each other? And can we stop making up rubbish and passing it on as "official sources".

Oh and why we are at it, can we make sure that next year on grand final day we dont post rubbish in every single thread on demonland?

Ahhh get stuffed moron. (Joke)

You're right. I do feel better.

I usually have you on ignore (what a great little feature of 'land), however I think you need to read again the two sentences you wrote above. Firstly because you spam threads over and over without adding anything meaningful (eg, GF day), and second because you persist with little pieces of information that are either already common knowledge or untrue. Respect is earned. Please try reading more and posting only when it really adds. This is the internet, if you think 'land is disrespectful, you may wish to avoid the other footy forum sites. 'Land is generally well behaved and certainly well moderated.

Finally, if you are feeling depressed, consider contacting Beyond Blue ph 1300224636 or lifeline ph 131114. I am serious.

 

I thought this was going to be another bs thread about how nobody in the AFL gives us any credit and blah blah blah. This is only marginally better.


Oh, sorry. Was that a disrespectful thing to say?

In regards to GF day I have already explained that elsewhere. I talk in general. I have scrolled through a lot of threads (obviously) and the same protagonists pop up with the same vitriole time and again. I tend to wonder why they want to be involved here?

Don't worry about Moonie's comments Clint - he is a very bitter fellow. He's probably just jealous of your popularity.

BBO = stalker

The thing is..... Demonland is a community. An online community, but a community non the less.

If someone in my workplace or group of friends acts like a fool or spouts rubbish to big note themselves, I will pull them up on it.

I will not give them any respect.

If you find yourself the target of multiple users disrespect, maybe ask your self what you are doing/done to earn this disrespect.

The great thing with an online community is that you can simply delete your account or change your name. Or even better, stop being a tool.

It actually matters little to me what they say! I can take it being involved in the industry. I am talking for others. I had the day off and scanned through countless posts and the same protagonists come to the fore every time. I don't know if they have miserable lives and are trying to convey that on others (or if its just following the Dees over the past few seasons!) but am just asking to be RESPECTFUL of others.

I would be proud to have BBO as my stalker. Unfortunately I will need to be relatively interesting to begin with. Therein lies the rub.

Well of course we have miserable lives. Do you think I'd be posting if I was lying on a beach in Tahiti next to Miranda Kerr? I probably would post but you get my point.

Jesus RTG, you've made me tear up. Even "the lads" are looking for tissues.

Yeah, let's make this a family friendly site... we all know how well that worked out for Demonology don't we.

Or as they said in Deliverance, "this boys got a nice prayin' mouth!".

  • REPORT: Richmond

    The fans who turned up to the MCG for Melbourne’s Anzac Day Eve clash against Richmond would have been disappointed if they turned up to see a great spectacle. As much as this was a night for the 71,635 in attendance to commemorate heroes of the nation’s past wars, it was also a time for the Melbourne Football Club to consolidate upon its first win after a horrific start to the 2025 season. On this basis, despite the fact that it was an uninspiring and dour struggle for most of its 100 minutes, the night will be one for the fans to remember. They certainly got value out of the pre match activity honouring those who fought for their country. The MCG and the lights of the city as backdrop was made for nights such as these and, in my view, we received a more inspirational ceremony of Anzac culture than others both here and elsewhere around the country.

  • CASEY: Richmond

    The match up of teams competing in our great Aussie game at its second highest level is a rarity for a work day Thursday morning but the blustery conditions that met the players at a windswept Casey Fields was something far more commonplace.They turned the opening stanza between the Casey Demons and a somewhat depleted Richmond VFL into a mess of fumbling unforced errors, spilt marks and wasted opportunities for both sides but they did set up a significant win for the home team which is exactly what transpired on this Anzac Day round opener. Casey opened up strong against the breeze with the first goal to Aidan Johnson, the Tigers quickly responded and the game degenerated into a defensive slog and the teams were level when the first siren sounded.

  • POSTGAME: Richmond

    After five consecutive defeats, the Demons have now notched up back-to-back victories, comfortably accounting for the Tigers in the traditional ANZAC Eve clash. They surged to a commanding 44-point lead early in the final quarter before easing off the pedal, resting skipper Max Gawn and conceding the last four goals of the game to close out a solid 20-point win.
