I have no idea what everyone is talking about....

Sorry jr but you led with your jaw

"what's New"?

 

Like Jumbo Im not sure how this will affect me. But I hope I dont lose the ability to enjoy the demonland site which is my best relief and cheaper than a psychologist.

 

Display names but converted to binary please.


Why would that happen?

I'm not sure it would, but because so many display names have spaces it could happen. Usually with spaces an automatic "%20" gets inserted for things like web addresses, user names etc, could cause problems?

ie - "Deestroy All" would become "Destroy%20All"

It will only affect people who have changed their initial name that they signed up to Demonland with.

For you personally if you signed up as dpositive then your username and display name are the same and you don't need to worry about anything.

Prior to this change if you started as ABC but changed your Display name to XYZ then currently you would be logging in as ABC as that is your Username despite your Display Name being changed to XYZ.

Under the new software everyones Username (the name you log in with) will be replaced by your Display Name (the name everyone on Demonland see above your avatar). In the above example the poster will have to now log in as XYZ to post on Demonland rather than ABC.

If you have never changed your Display Name then it will not effect you as your Username and Display Name were always the same.

I doubt the makers of this software for this forum would [censored] up their users forums like that.

well if "Tony Tea" is worried about imbedded blanks, i assume it is not too late for him to change to "TonyTea"

Yeah, just a possibility worth checking their FAQ's for when making a decision I guess.

Would be fun to have "username" activated, just for a couple of days, so that we can see who is who. Then flick it back to display name so that we can update our "ignore" list.

I would assume that if you have someone on ignore and then they change their name you would still be ignoring that person despite the name change.

Okay my username and original display name is a bit embarrassing so I'm glad we're going with current display names lol.


Display name cheers ^_^

Steady as she goes for the Fence! Display name Thanks

I see in your signature that you were formally astrodee. Is that not the name you use to log in to Demonland?

Nope.

I use my display name. Astrodee (and posts under that name ) sorta disappeared during the tea trolley disaster or whatever caused that crash some time back and we had to re register.

Anyway that's my memory if it. Mind you, my forgettory is far more powerful.

But bugger it, I still remember Harrison and Weideman wrecking 1958 for me. One of the reasons I want to draft his grandson is that perhaps he can make up for his grandfather's thuggery by starring in a flag for us.

  • REPORT: St. Kilda

    One of the big stories of the AFL off-season was the spending spree of Melbourne’s Round 1 opponent, St Kilda. They splashed out heavily, first to retain Nasiah Wanganeen-Milera - the hero of last year’s epic come-from-behind miracle victory -turning him into a $2 million man. They then effectively took out an expensive overdraft to recruit a string of expensive players from other clubs. It was a risky investment strategy and, although it’s still early days, it certainly failed to pay off in Sunday’s season opener, with much of the glitter turning to fool’s gold.
