Hi Admin

anything you guys can do to avoid RFC banner ads on Demonland - it’s offensive .

thiight they were related to browsing history but I’ve never browsed that kind of dirty trash before 

 

I for one am perfectly happy for Richmond to subsidize Demonland. :D Personally I find Richmond quite ignorable.

The algorithm for which ads you get served isn't solely based on browser history. The advertiser might have certain search words that this site being an AFL footy related site match. Or perhaps the tigers are trying to convert non-believers. 

The best way not to see any ads at all is to support Demonland by taking out a Subscription which removes the ads entirely.

I agree that it’s wrong on environmental grounds to encourage any Tiger fan who wanders here to buy a membership. When those plastic cards go into the microwave after we give them a whopping on Anzac Eve, then we will surely be responsible for releasing all of those smouldering plastic fumes into the atmosphere?

Aha! That explains why I only get ads for porn sites. 

I encourage everyone to click on it as many times as possible.  They can pollute our screens for free, but as soon as anyone clicks on it they pay money.  I’m sure we can ensure they make a loss in 2019

I just subscribed, and I asked Admin how many Demonlanders there were and how many were subscribers. I was surprised by the response:

"There are over 5,000 registered members of Demonland. About 280 are subscribers. These numbers don't take into account guests who visit the site but have never signed up. More guests are reading the site at any one time than members reading the site."

It would be nice for the percentage of subscribers to increase to support the running of this site. I mean we all enjoy it, but only about 5% are financially supporting it. With a lifetime membership of only $60, that, for some of the younger ones on here will work out to be about $1 a year. Where else can you get such great entertainment for just $1 a year?

 Let alone politics free literary genius......


I encourage everyone to sign up. I got horribly drunk a while back and attempted to buy a life membership, but the payment process glitched and it didn't go through. I couldn't change my mind when i sobered up as that would have made me feel, ..... dirty?

Anyway, i feel slightly less  bannable with "Life Member" next to my name. Most likely a false sense of security, but i am happy to run with it :)

If you can afford it, i think it makes sense to add it to your support of MFC. Life membership is a long time for most people. 

*I expect Demonland to add an extra thousand or so likes to my total for this shameless plug

Amazed there is so few members, more so sad. This is a great site for fans and regular readers and readers should show some support to Andy and subscribe.

 

Surely the cost of servicing the Range Rover is not so much that we can’t have more members here...

Happy to have signed up and to support Andy.   Also happy that when my wife looks over my shoulder at what I'm doing she doesn't see those annoying Dating site ads targeted at old people!

I have subscribed before.. a couple of times.

But then get hounded for some profanity which everyone does now...  but the site filter blanks them out. and they continue on without any land comments.

I've been hounded by the likes of that whiny rhino, for daring to be different to his views...  I've been suspended/banned for daring to resist the ideas that treat women different to men, that they deserve more respect...

I differ, after being abused and molested by that same gender.  And then get banned.

 

I have already payed many times, including donating to resurrect Demonology...  when it was offline.

 

I have subscribed, and without any income... no pension no dole nothing. no income of any sort with the interest rates.

Living off the bank account, until I run out, of time.

You were justifiably banned.

Great site as we all know.

Please support and every now and then send a donation to keep the wonderful work going.

I find the match day threads particularly therapeutic.

One only has to look at the podcast guests to understand the actual not to mention potential reach a site such as this can have.

Thanks Andy and Nasher and all those who keep the site ticking over.

PS: I found this site around 2001 or slightly after so it has become part of my MFC life. Most posters are courteous and it's great to get different views. Long may it prosper.

I think when you consider the time and efforts that go into running a website like this one it makes sense to subscribe or donate. I've been on DL a long time and although I've had on-off periods on here it's always been there and I'm grateful for that.

The site is run by great people and we are getting more and more brilliant content all the time with things like the podcast which has become a staple for me during the week. 

Every bit counts, doesn't take much.

Click on the ads and do your bit to waste their advertising budget.

I initially read this as "the cost of servicing Range Rover" and thought that the post was something to do with the site's administrators dealing with one of Demonland's posters who seemed to require significant amounts of moderation.

(People who have been on Demonland for a while will know what I'm talking about.)

Haha I think $60 barely covers the cost of brake light bulb on a Jaguar

Join the hunt ?? Who the hell wants to do that ??

I wish Richmond supporters had aphrodisiac qualities, then they could stop shooting  the real tigers and just 'go', the Tiger supporting ferals.   Win/ Win

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    The media focus on the fiery interaction between Max Gawn and Steven May at the end of the game was unfortunate because it took away the gloss from Melbourne’s performance in winning almost everywhere but on the scoreboard in its Kings Birthday clash with Collingwood at the MCG. It was a real battle reminiscent of the good old days when the rivalry between the two clubs was at its height and a fitting contest to celebrate the 2025 Australian of the Year, Neale Daniher and his superb work to bring the campaign to raise funds for motor neurone disease awareness to the forefront. Notwithstanding the fact that the Magpies snatched a one point victory from his old club, Daniher would be proud of the fact that his Demons fought tooth and nail to win the keenly contested game in front of 77,761 fans.

    The Demons are set to embark on a four-week road trip that takes them across the country, with two games in Adelaide and a clash on the Gold Coast, broken up by a mid-season bye. Next up is a meeting with the inconsistent Port Adelaide at Adelaide Oval. Who comes in and who goes out?

  • POSTGAME: Collingwood

    Despite effectively playing against four extra opponents, the Dees controlled much of the match. However, their inaccuracy in front of goal and inability to convert dominance in clearances and inside 50s ultimately cost them dearly, falling to a heartbreaking one-point loss on King’s Birthday.

    It's Game Day and the Demons face a monumental task as they take on the top-of-the-table Magpies in one of the biggest games on the Dees calendar: the King's Birthday Big Freeze MND match. Can the Demons defy the odds and claim a massive scalp to keep their finals hopes alive?
