indeed, its shanes site.

unfortunately, as with any forum, its also belongs to the posters who provide the content. im all in favour of moderation when there is going to be children posting on the site, and with a football fan site there is sure to be a certain amount of disrespectfull trolling that can be culled. but censorship of valid opinions by other fairminded users is another beast entirely.

the chinese government is currently in a long internet censorship battle, any site, and especially forums, that insults or questions the regime, the way of life or any other aspect of communist china is shut down. acceptable topics, like chinese nationalism and anti-japanese vitriol is encouraged.

indeed shane can do whatever he wants, he can suck my balls for all i care, cause i aint goin back to dockerland.

f*** censorship, f*** dockerland and f*** shane.
 
the censorship does suck. but its his site.

I only read the articles there. Trying to post on the message board is pointless.

Are your balls as halfbaked as your ideas?

Anyone seriously comparing Dockerland and the Chinese Communist government needs to get into Trent Croad's bedroom, tip their head back and have a GOOD HARD LOOK AT THEMSELF.

yeah, fair enough, it was more of an example than a direct comparison. i just hate censorship.
 
My god, is that it ? Anything else bothering you lot ? Fair dinkum, I've just gone through all the drivile here and I've gotta say "thank god for Shane's editing".

It's been said here dozens of times, "if you don't like it, don't go there" Simple !!

But don't come on this site and scream blue murder ! Don't say Dockerland is strictly for those who follow the party line ! I'm living proof of the opposite !! As many here can attest to. If you can't fit into the 'in crowd', give up. Grab your ball and go home and cry ! Life is not an easy thing, nor is barracking for Fremantle.

Stay here and insult eachother and cop all the trolls doing the same. It's obviously fun for some here. Me.........I'll stay at Dockerland and enjoy some intelligent banter and get on my soapbox , whenever I feel the need and just soakup some Fremantle flavour the rest of the time.

Fremantle is not just a location, it's a state of mind !

The fact that I agree with everything you've said here kinda scares me Dutchey.
 
I'm just excited to see Dutchey as a complete newbie on this site:)
I'll be straight back to DL when the season is up and running, but pre season footy talk bores me. No this is not my name on DL, as it was taken when I came here.
 
There's an out of control weevils supporter running riot on DL.

Calles himself eages. Eee-jes. Hmmm. :confused:

Days like today I love shane's editing. Seems he hasn't quite got onto it yet.

the great thing about DL is that on any "usual" day, we wouldn't have to put up with that crap. Shane must have been taking some of the advice dished out here by all you nongs who can't handle his rules on his site.

Then again, I doubt it.

Shane if you are reading this - get your bad-a$$ back to Dockerland... you've got some editin' to do.

Dutchey you go back to you crap forum . Dockerland & Shane are not Freo supportters in the true sense . I think your getting upset at this little backlash against that pathetic site. DL is not the voice of Freo Supportters. Dockerland is the voice of a few net nerds who are an insignificant lot in the whole scheme of things . To say they are the voice of Freo supportters is laughable.
The thing your buddies have got to get through there thick skulls why people are having a whinge here is because as a "forum" debate and the like is always gonna happen . Points of view will be expressed regardless if you agree with it or not. Rumours will show up whether you think it is total BS or not.n Thats what a form in the true sense is, its a free for all.
On the other hand a dictatorship according to Brittanica.comis as follows


Form of government in which one person or an oligarchy possesses absolute power without effective constitutional checks.

With constitutional democracy, it is one of the two chief forms of government in use today. Modern dictators usually use force or fraud to gain power and then keep it through intimidation, terror, suppression of civil liberties, and control of the mass media. In 20th-century Latin America, nationalist leaders often achieved power through the military and attempted either to maintain the privileged elite or to institute far-reaching social reform, depending on their class sympathies. In Europe's communist and fascist dictatorships, a charismatic leader of a mass party used an official ideology to maintain his regime, and terror and propaganda to suppress opposition. In postcolonial Africa and Asia, dictators have often retained power by establishing one-party rule after a military takeover.

Kinda sounds like Dockkerland & its forums :)

Dont even talk about the rules about DL. Cause there aint any there & if there are post the link . Shane ( aka Jack Van Tongeran ) hasnt even got the intestinal fortitude to put up the rules because he knows that regular punters who aint in his little movement group who actually follow the rules know then what can be posted. Putting rules up means Shane has actually set guidelines of what people can work on. Shane doesnt want that.

OK Imperial Purple go get me that link for the rules !!!

:( Well there's that whole hilariously satirical Xinhualand.com banner I was working on mothballed for now.

Dutchy, there is a lot of things you post that I agree with - but not Dockerland. One is not allowed to have an opinion that is different to Shanes. When you get on your soapbox, you are one of the fortunate ones to not have it deleted. Most of ours are. So he can jam it.

I no longer go there and it is good to see you guys posting in here too as I enjoy the banter and different views. Like many, I am not interested in insulting anybody but enjoy the different opinions and views.

I will not be sorry to see Dockerland fold up.

Not everyone is as positive and supportive of all thing Freo as you though.
 
My favourite thread is on the go again and Freo Hitman is back! What an awesome day!

Rob - Had a look in DL yesterday and noticed there was not a lot of traffic. Probably to be expected at this time of year, no doubt it will be busy again once the wiz fiz begins.

In ever thought I'd read a post by FH that i agree with, but the freedom of opinion i have on this forum allows me to say that he has hit the nail on the head with this comment.

So, Hitman, here is your opportunity, on this marvelous space for freedom, democracy, encyclopaedia-reading and oligarchy hating, to tell us your fantastically contentious ideas and points of view that this Nazi Dictator Evil Hitler Type Shane won't let you print on Dockerland.

Go for it, son.

Instead of bitching like a nannygoat with its teats caught in the mangler, get to work. What have you got to say?
 
The thrust of the argument against Dockerland is that it should publish everything. The argument's foundation is that there is some right to be published. Where did that come from? Prior to the Internet, access to publishing in any media was limited. A good thing to because it limited access to people who had something interesting to say and could say it some reasonably informed and articulate manner.

Given the responses in this thread you can see that Shane's editing might be a good thing. Freo Hitmans response in this thread is a tantrum. Jarman is taking his ball and going home because his uninformed diatribes can't get a run. Look, they wouldn't get a run in any forum other than the Internet. Try sending them to the West Australian. Not every letter to the Editor gets a run. I can't follow why Shane needs to be held to a different standard.

And Dutchey is spot on. If you are still into chucking tantrums because you can't get what you want then maybe Dockerland isn't the place for you.

You write some funny st*t at times MM :D

This forum could do with a bit of Shane's editing a times. Start with a total ban on Pork and wet toast.

Dr Ralph Dagg - what is the point of posting a view on Dockerland when it is deleted every time. Dockerland is for a select few.

Provided the post is focused on football performance, results, information or club issues and it does not contain bad language or attacks someone personally - why the hell edit or delete it.

Different points of view and banter is what a board is all about.

Wonder if you would go there if you had your posts were continually deleted.
 
It's shanes website, I still don't understand why people feel they should have the right to post on there.

He has a specific feel he wants his website to have and he achieves this by manipulating the message board to conform to his standards.

he is a dictator but he isn't taking over boards and forcing people to participate under his rules.

I find dockerland good for a laugh, useless for opinions and arguements.
