THE END OF DEMONLAND (Coming Soon?)


Demonland

Recommended Posts

I'm an ex MFC/MCC member and am in Italy. Just purchased my new wife, myself and our 2 dogs (yes MFC has pet memberships) new memberships, she's a Carlton supporter but bad luck! I'd be dead over here without the constant footy updates and bickering! Happy to help out.

And you still have money to donate!!!!!

I would just like to add that donating or taking out a subscription doesn't give posters the right to act like a [censored].

Wait a minute perhaps an incentive would be to allow donators and subscribers a way around the [censored] word filter.

We would be [censored] rich!!!!!

Haha damn straight mate, keep up the good work

There are many people who value the site a great deal but will only donate when there's a call to action like this.

I wonder if we could have a donation progress bar, that gives users the target to reach every 6 months or every year. At least then, we'll know where we all stand.

I prefer to stay just a member. Been banned a few times and I'd hate to become a "defrocked" life member. I'll just make regular donations.

I am happy to support the cause - keep up the entertainment. Thanks to the administrators.

That's very generous of you but I would prefer you kept the money if you can't afford it. It's only a footy forum. Volunteering and donations to proper causes are more worthy. Thank you anyway.

Andy, I had a thought earlier today about this, but wanted to get a better idea of how many post multiples on the site on a regular daily basis.

What if: we have a few categories:-

* new rookie member: registered avatar, Read Only - One off 2 months: Free of cost...

* new member: Read only - 6 months: $10.00...

* new member: Full function - One off 6 month subscription: $20.00...

* Demonland: Full member: Annual 12 month subscription: $30.00...

* Demonland: Concession 12 month subscription: TBConsiderd ??? _ _ _ _ (pensioners, health care card, fulltime students).

* if a member needs to be suspended, maybe back to read only for a time ???

might be worth some thought?

Just come back from a month in Italy and was shattered when I couldn't get the AFLlive on my ipad or computer. I rang AFL Melbourne and after a very annoying wait (I did say I was ringing from Italy) they advised oh no live play was not available in Italy - rest of Europe yep but not Italy. I was shattered but listening to AFLlive radio V Carlton was almost as good. Oh yes have never purchased and will be happy not see the "love me long time" girls. My donation is forthcoming!!

Bit outside the box. I think the ads need to be more intrusive and annoying. I really don't notice much difference between logging in as myself or as a guest. More ads might make people want to get rid of them more.

Aah, but if opening Demonland only got you to the Enter Site Page, with Adds & basic Demonland & Mfc information, but not the forums, then the reader would have to register for a particular membership.

Even if only a rookie membership for free?

If indeed this stuff is at all possible to create.

How do I get the mobile skin as a subscriber?

Mobile skin refers to the smartphone version of the site to makes it easier to read on an iphone or android type device and is not a protective cover for a mobile device.

If you are referring to the former what device do you own?

As I said earlier I think this can have it's own set of problems. Forums need new blood to grow. Forcing people to pay might scare people away and I don't think it is fair to make people pay for something they can't afford. If we were churning out huge amounts of our own content then things might be a little different. As it stands I am comfortable with allowing our users to decide if the want to contribute. People have been very generous and that is great. We've had about 8 or 9 months of hosting paid for today. We still need more to help out with the software costs. Thanks again everyone who has contributed.

Can I get rid of this new skin? It is easier to read and very good. But I like to make things harder for myself and would like the old view back.

At the top and bottom of the page there is a button that says Click for Full Site.

how about a separate section on the front page saying something like services or business of posters ?

I used to advertise my pinball company on a couple of pinball .aracde chat forums

they had a section called sponsors and we all had a small section as in a thread and it had our logo's

we could post specials in there for members

it could be a win win , it opens up sales/services for members and the sales/services go to members

just a thought

also happy to increase the lifetime member upto 100 , ( will top this up tomorrow )

this site as been great to read and keep upto date on whats going on , I don't post much but really enjoy site

thanks

mark

Just payed membership, but I will miss all those gorgeous women wanting to meet and marry me. Made me feel like I was special (oh hang on, I am special, I'm an MFC tragic!).

Sometimes I log in as a guest just to see the ladies who want to meet and marry me, and the cougars who "live near me"....... :)

    GETAWAY by Meggs

    Calling all fit players. Expect every available Melbourne player to board the Virgin cross-continent flight to Perth for this Round 4 clash on Saturday afternoon at Fremantle Oval. It promises to be keenly contested, though Fremantle is the bookies clear favourite.  If we lose, finals could be remoter than Rottnest Island especially following on from the Dees 50-point dismantlement by North Melbourne last Sunday.  There are 8 remaining matches, over the next 7 weeks.  To Meggs’

    DRUBBING by Meggs

    With Casey Fields basking in sunshine, an enthusiastic throng of young Demons fans formed a guard of honour for the evergreen and much admired 75-gamer Paxy Paxman. As the home team ran out to play, Paxy’s banner promised that the Demons would bounce back from last week’s loss to Brisbane and reign supreme.   Disappointingly, the Kangaroos dominated the match to win by 50 points, but our Paxy certainly did her bit.  She was clearly our best player, sweeping well in defence.

    GARNER STRENGTH by Meggs

    In keeping with our tough draw theme, Week 3 sees Melbourne take on flag favourites, North Melbourne, at Casey Fields this Sunday at 1:05pm.  The weather forecast looks dry, a coolish 14 degrees and will be characteristically gusty.  Remember when Casey Fields was considered our fortress?  The Demons have lost two of their past three matches at the Field of Dreams, so opposition teams commute down the Princes Highway with more optimism these days.  The Dees held the highe

    ALLY’S FIELDS by Meggs

    It was a sunny morning at Casey Fields, as Demon supporters young and old formed a guard of honour for fan favourite and 50-gamer Alyssa Bannan.  Banno’s banner stated the speedster was the ‘fastest 50 games’ by an AFLW player ever.   For Dees supporters, today was not our day and unfortunately not for Banno either. A couple of opportunities emerged for our number 6 but alas there was no sizzle.   Brisbane atoned for last week’s record loss to North Melbourne, comprehensively out

    GOOD MORNING by Meggs

    If you are driving or training it to Cranbourne on Saturday, don’t forget to set your alarm clock. The Melbourne Demons play the reigning premiers Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields this Saturday, with the bounce of the ball at 11:05am.  Yes, that’s AM.   The AFLW fixture shows deference to the AFL men’s finals games.  So, for the men it’s good afternoon and good evening and for the women it’s good morning.     The Lions were wounded last week by 44 points, their highest ever los

    HORE ON FIRE by Meggs

    The 40,000 seat $319 million redeveloped Kardinia Park Stadium was nowhere near capacity last night but the strong, noisy contingent of Melbourne supporters led by the DeeArmy journeyed to Geelong to witness a high-quality battle between two of the best teams in AFLW.   The Cats entered the arena to the blasting sounds of Zombie Nation and made a hot start kicking the first 2 goals. They brought tremendous forward half pressure, and our newly renovated defensive unit looked shaky.

    REMATCH by Meggs

    The Mighty Demons take on the confident Cats this Saturday night at the recently completed $319 million redeveloped GMHBA Stadium, with the bounce of the ball at 7:15pm. Our last game of 2023 was an agonisingly close 5-point semi-final loss to Geelong, and we look forward to Melbourne turning the tables this week. Practice match form was scratchy for both teams with the Demons losing practice matches to Carlton and Port Adelaide, while the Cats beat Collingwood but then lost to Essendo

    WELCOME 2024 by Meggs

    It’s been hard to miss the seismic global momentum happening in Women’s sport of late. The Matildas have been playing to record sell-out crowds across Australia and ‘Mary Fowler is God’ is chalked onto footpaths everywhere. WNBA basketball rookie sensation Caitlin Clark has almost single-handedly elevated her Indiana Fever team to unprecedented viewership, attendances and playoffs in the USA.   Our female Aussie Paris 2024 Olympians won 13 out of Australia’s all-time record 18 gol

    EPILOGUE by Whispering Jack

    I sit huddled in near darkness, the only light coming through flickering embers in a damp fireplace, the room in total silence after the thunderstorm died. I wonder if they bothered to restart the game.  No point really. It was over before it started. The team’s five star generals in defence and midfield ruled out of the fray, a few others missing in action against superior enemy firepower and too few left to fly the flag for the field marshal defiantly leading his outnumbered army int
