Demoneyes, you spam all the threads on the trading & drafting board, and you appear to post specious information under the pretense of you actually knowing something or having some valuable contacts at the club, despite none of your "inside info" being factually correct.

You come across as a tool.

Don't shoot the messenger.

I have been a critic in the past of the mob mentality I've witnessed here, but either I've become desensitised or it hasn't been happening as often. Most threads actually stay on topic these days and posters seem to be more conscious of not being a dick towards their fellow supporters.

Very often, there is no right and wrong. Sometimes that point gets lost. Ultimately it's about passion which we all have otherwise we wouldn't be here. Everyone expresses that passion differently, and that should never be sacrificed. Just don't be a dick about it

I think being a [censored] usually entails posting the following replies to a post/thread:

1) 'What a stupid thread/waste of time' or 'Nothing to see here.'

2) You clearly have an anti (name club figure) agenda. This can be rephrased as 'you have (multiple) axes to grind'.

3) Not a hugely consistent one but I do notice people dismissing posters out of hand because of their post count. This act of dickery usually comes along with the line 'Who cares what this guy thinks?'

The villains of the 'Land (save one or two) have kept their heads down for the last little bit. I was going to stay away for a while but the mood has lightened since we got Roosy.

This is my gut feeling.

I hope you feel better getting that off your chest! For your info I do not spam every thread on here, on GF day it was about 45 I replied to. Who I know is none of your business, but I am quite comfortable with the contacts I have. It is quite obvious you haven't read all my threads as some have been correct. Someone said on here that i only post stuff on here to big note myself, what an absolute laugh! If you really feel I come on here to get "uplifted" from comments I make by you and others, you are all sadly mistaken! With the high stress job I have, I come on here to de-stress with some light hearted entertainment. As for yourself, the way you re-act and your language says volumes to me about the person you are. Be well!

I am pretty happy with where we are at as a site in terms of politeness and respect.

You struck a nerve on GF day with a great number of posters incl. myself. It's no big deal, we all move on and enjoy the ability to discuss the Demons with other Demons.

HTFU whingers.

Moonie is correct here. You post your opinion - in whatever terms you choose - and you accept the consequences if others don't like them. I'm not saying be thoughtless of others, but FFS, let's not be too precious. If you are on a site which is open to the world then be prepared for a smack now and then.

I bite back if others bait me but I do worry about younger posters on here. WON'T SOMEBODY THINK OF THE CHILDREN?!

If you are a younger poster, sometimes you would wonder what kind of club you are supporting.

Careful Toady, you'll have Bitty stalking you. He's like that.

I'm a faithful stalker Moonie - one at a time.

Are you saying that you have a man crush on Moonie?

You know we all should only have a man crush on Roos!

There was a severe reprimand and it has been made clear that if it ever happens again he will be instantly banned. It was juvenile behaviour that wasted mine and other mods time in cleaning it up.

I would like to add that Demonlanders should refer to the code of conduct (http://demonland.com/forums/index.php?/topic/15-code-of-conduct-moderating-guide/) and the thread re: abuse (http://demonland.com/forums/index.php?/topic/34199-reminder-on-personal-abuse/). The mods try to clean up and reprimand or ban when warranted when they can but things obviously get missed. You too can police the boards by reporting offending posts using the Report Button.

What about when the personal abuse comes from the mods?

Does the code of conduct apply to them?

Not a comment on HSo'Grinter's post, but when I clicked on his links, I am getting a login dialog that states the following:

"A username and password are being requested by http://generatormeme.com. The site says: "Access Restricted (pwrestrict)"

Anyone else getting that?

No. The links show WJ treating Hazy with no respect.

I see no issue but your own. Move on Hazy. You too Bob.

If you don't like the way things are run you may leave.

But you never answered my question:

Does the code of conduct apply to mods who engage in personal abuse?

And, also my question from the thread where you decided to ban me:

Did Whispering_Jack ever receive a warning for his posts in that thread (in which he accused me of being "sniping, embarrassing, foolish" and having "ulterior motive, zero credibility and a bucket load of gall") and If not, why not?

No. Because it wasn't warranted. Stop being a pest. You don't like it then there's the door. Don't let it hit your arse on the way out.

You and Bob can have a whinge about another mod abusing his powers.

    There were a number of Demonland Trackwatchers at Gosch's Paddock this morning to bring you their observations from Preseason Training. KEV MARTIN'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS They were going hard at each other. The sims were in two 15 minute blocks. The second block finished a few minutes early, they gathered and had another 7 minutes at it. I think they were asked to compete, as they would play against an opposition. There was plenty of niggle, between some of them. At the end o

    Better late than never … and quite frankly, there’s very little to report other than that training took place at Casey Fields this morning, that Tracc was there nursing his rib injury and that some photographs are on the club’s social media including this one of Clarrie in Raging Bull stance that gives rise for confidence. The other news is that the club has a new train on player in 185cm Dandenong Stingrays midfielder Noah Hibbins-Hargreaves (love the hyphenated name which is just so fitti

    Welcome back to Demonland for those like me who have been on vacation. I’m posting this with some trepidation because of a certain amount of uncertainty surrounding the return of preseason training in 2025 after a flurry of weddings including those of our coach, one of our superstar players and a former premiership champion player and bloke, not to mention the recent mysterious incident that occurred on the Mornington Peninsula.  I believe that the team reassembles this morning at Casey Fie

    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

    A few new faces joined our veteran Demonland Trackwatchers on a beautiful morning out at Gosch's Paddock for another Preseason Training Session. BLWNBA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I arrived at around 1015 and the squad was already out on the track. The rehab group consisted of XL, McAdam, Melksham, Spargo and Sestan. Lever was also on restricted duties and appeared to be in runners.  The main group was doing end-to-end transition work in a simulated match situation. Ball mov
