  • IMPORTANT: PLEASE READ BEFORE POSTING

    Posting unsubstantiated rumours on this website is strictly forbidden.

    Demonland has made the difficult decision to not permit this platform to be used to discuss & debate the off-field issues relating to the Melbourne Football Club including matters currently being litigated between the Club & former Board members, board elections, the issue of illicit drugs in footy, the culture at the club & the personal issues & allegations against some of our players & officials ...

    We do not take these issues & this decision lightly & of course we believe that these serious matters affecting the club we love & are so passionate about are worthy of discussion & debate & I wish we could provide a place where these matters can be discussed in a civil & respectful manner.

    However these discussions unfortunately invariably devolve into areas that may be defamatory, libelous, spread unsubstantiated rumours & can effect the mental health of those involved. Even discussion & debate of known facts or media reports can lead to finger pointing, blame & personal attacks.

    The repercussion is that these discussions can open this website, it’s owners & it’s users to legal action & may result in this website being forced to shutdown.

    Our moderating team are all volunteers & cannot moderate the forum 24/7 & as a consequence problematic content that contravenes our rules & standards may go unnoticed for some time before it can be removed.

    We reserve the right to delete posts that offend against our above policy & indeed, to ban posters who are repeat offenders or who breach our code of conduct.

    WE HAVE BUILT A FANTASTIC ONLINE COMMUNITY AT DEMONLAND OVER THE PAST 23 YEARS & WE WOULD LIKE TO CONTINUE TO BE ABLE TO DISCUSS THE CLUB WE LOVE & ARE SO PASSIONATE ABOUT.

    Thank you for your continued support & understanding. Go Dees.

Small thing but I notice we have the American date system with the month before the day.

My mind is fuzzy but I don't think that was the case with the old software:)

Just to clarify the date is the one which appears when you quote a posting over 24 hours old

cheers

Wait. Where are you seeing that date format?

On old posts (older than 48 hours) I see eg: Posted August 17, 2016.

I'll look into that one. I can't seem to find anywhere in the software settings that deal with dates. It could be a local setting as per your own accounts that can be changed in your profile or settings.

thanks ... looked in my profile but nothing was obvious.

Here is a link to a page in another thread. The second last post quotes "bandicoot's posting of 7/26/2017" on my screen

Oh. On the quoted posts not the actual posts.

As there is no date format setting in the software I reckon the American-centric software developers overlooked that. I'll see if there is a fix but we might be stuck with it.

Understood .. might just have to get used to another Americanism .... 

you are right though ... in the posts themselves as against the quoted posts the date is shown in the usual format

Good luck and as I said it's a very small point .... Great job

While we're here. In the profile link, underneath 'Profile' is the subhead 'My Attachments'.

My partner is a yoga and meditation teacher and is forever trying manage my game-day anxiety and post-match irritation by exploring the root of my fears and through other Buddhist gobbledygook. Can we change this to just 'Attachments', so I don't have to ponder my life and its place in the Cosmos every time I log in with the simple earthy desire to hear people bickering about Oscar MacDonald? 

Cheers.

Just had a thought, the 'shocked' button - looks like a recent plastic purchase of mine that I got imported from Shanghai... she's a little robotic if you know what I mean...

Judging by your correspondence there - my attachments for you @Skuit   = emotional deprivation and emotional inhibition.  I'll send you a link if need be ;)

You might be right Danelska. No one has used a 'love' emoticon for a single one of my posts yet, while I'm in turn struggling to venture beyond the emotional safety of a casual thumbs up.

Not according to my passport, but my girlfriend says we are all the one and the same and exist in the single sensory continuum from Paul Roos to RuPaul. You should consider changing your username to Destroy Hate.

I don't know if this is specific to the new software or not but I've apparently used up my attachment quota.

When I follow the link to 'Manage attachments' I can see my attachments but I can't work out how to 'manage them' (ie delete a couple).

Using Firefox.

This has been fixed. All members can now manage/delete their own Attachments (virtual ones).

Thanks for fixing visuals and functions in Firefox.  All working perfectly!

As an aside, should a list of who is on-line/reading a page appear at the bottom of the thread?  It appears on the Home page only on my screens.  (pc, firefox and samsung android)

Yeah there's a few spot fires that need to be put out from the weekend. That is one of them.

    CENTIMETRES by Whispering Jack

    Our game is one where the result is often decided by centimetres; the touch of a fingernail, a split-second decision made by a player or official, the angle of vision or the random movement of an oblong ball in flight or in its bounce and trajectory. There is one habit that Melbourne seems to have developed of late in its games against Carlton which is that the Demons keep finding themselves on the wrong end of the stick in terms of the fine line in close games at times when centimetres mak

    MELBOURNE BUSINESS by The Oracle

    In days of old, this week’s Thursday night AFL match up between the Demons and the Blues would be framed on the basis of the need to redress the fact that Carlton “stole” last year’s semi final away from Melbourne and with it, their hopes for the premiership.  A hot gospelling coach might point out to his charges that they were the better team on the night in all facets and that poor kicking for goal and a couple of lapses at the death cost them what was rightfully theirs. Moreover, now was

    UNDER THE PUMP by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons have been left languishing near the bottom of the VFL table after suffering a 32-point defeat at the hands of stand alone club Williamstown at Casey Fields on Sunday. The Demons suffered a major setback before the game even started when AFL listed players Ben Brown, Marty Hore and Josh Schache were withdrawn from the selected side. Only Schache was confirmed as an injury replacement, the other two held over as possible injury replacements for Melbourne’s Thursday night fixt

    THE MEANING OF FOOTY by Whispering Jack

    Throughout history various philosophers have grappled with the meaning of life. Aristotle, Aquinas, Kant, Nietzsche, Schopenhauer and a multitude of authors of diverse religious texts all tried. As society became more complex, the question became attached to specific endeavours in life even including sporting pursuits where such questions arose among our game’s commentariat as, “what is the meaning of football”? Melbourne coach Simon Goodwin must be tired of dealing with such a dilemma but,
