First of all, Nairaland is interesting as it can get, but we all know there is enough room for improvement apart from not listening to how Tonto Dikeh didn't flush or how Cossy cannot cook, some of these would make Nairaland really interesting (at least for a week):

Users revolt: This happens to most wonderful sites. Even though it would be quite difficult on Nairaland considering the Nairaland's moderators (police, judge and executors). Come to think of if. For example, Seun smokes too much port and decides that charging users on use Nairaland would be cool, now that's a movie I'd like to watch.


Celebrity on Nairaland: Would it not be cool if we had celebrities on Nairaland? Like Don Jazzy, Wizkid e.t.c. Interacting with their fans. Say Don Jazzy decides to tweet that he would be on Nairaland tomorrow answering any question you could have. Seun, that's an idea and yes, you are welcome.


Democracy: Yes, imagine the day when user's get to decide on what stays on the front page and what leaves. Like social bookmarking sites. Digg.com, Reddit.com e.t.c. Honestly some front page thread gets you thinking. Is this mod phriging retarded or what?


Re-brand: I have been on Nairaland for a while now and this is the same design since i have known this wonderful site. No offence but Nairaland looks like a site desingned if 1997. Like new design, new logo. I know its the content that is keeping Nairaland but it wouldn't hurt to get a better looking site. Would it?


Takeover: It wouldn't be such a bad idea if some really rich company decides to buy Nairaland. That would be nice. New features/design for the users and Seun smiles to the bank. Win-win


Celebrity Silence: Not hearing about Tonto Dikeh, Cossy, Yvonne Nelson, Wizkid e.t.c for a month. Yes, i know that is impossible. That would really be swell. Moderators please arrange a meeting and see what can be done about this.


Football Silence: I wonder why every match that is played is always on Nairaland's Frontpage. Is this livescore or what?


Armageddon: Nairaland goes offline for a week. A little chaos never hurt anybody. Imagine you log on to nairaland one day and no-thread, not a single thread. And we find Seun apologizing that his database was corrupted or a virus attacked his servers or whatever. Some people would die, like literally die.


Banning of Bans: This would make Nairaland 10/10 crafny (That, crazy and funny). With this amount of Moderator's on Nairaland. Nairaland is still crazy and funny, just imagine what would happen is there was no censorship. It might get ugly, but it would still be interesting.


This thread makes front page: This is not going to be really interesting. This is here for two reason: 1). Its cheap pandering to get me to the front page and 2). i have run out of things to say. So what do you think would make Nairaland really interesting?

Lol! Nice one but you have to bribe me to recommend for front page

What's ur price?

This used to be the case in the earlier years of nairaland when making the frontpage was judged by the threads with the most posts, Basically trending threads get to make the frontpage. But these days, any thread the MODS think will be interesting make the FP.

Nairaland has not always looked like this. It used to look like the default SMF theme but this particular design was designed ti improve user experience. Nairaland is more mobile friendly, fast and easy to access.

A company once offered to buy nairaland for $1 million and the owner refused.

A cool, original thread from you 3 times a month in this section.
Let me know..

The celeb point had already been raised. Im working on it

This is gonna get interesting soon

The part were its SMF, fast, mobile frndly i understand. But the part where new features have not bin added i do not undastand. Sms integration, social network integration and a litle experimenting would be nice. What do i know? Nairaland is doing great as it is

Afam4eva: A company once offered to buy nairaland for $1 million and the owner refused.

Really? Wow! Which company? Maybe the reason I didn't take the mouth-watering offer was because nobody told me about it.

Seun:

Seun:

Manny's Corporation...

You said you wouldn't sell, isn't that you claimed?

@Seun, c'mon. Smaller sites have been bought for more than $1 million dollars. I would value nairaland at $500 million. Take it or leave it

I smell fraud at work here

Mynd_44:
I smell fraud at work here

What kind of fraud?

Believe me, I'm far from fraud, I hold a U.S. credential (I won't say which one), I won't loose it for a fu.c.king fraudulent activity..

Btw, please this isn't about me, it's about NL being an interesting place...

manny4life:

Ole!!!!!

Erm... Seun over to you

Mynd_44:
Ole!!!!!

Have you ever seen the movie "The social network"? How am I a thief? NL has potentials but Seun doesn't wanna explore them, so if a consortium buys him out and develop it, how is that thievery?

Haha, I've been joking o, yall shouldn't take it serious abeg...

Afam4eva: I can't remember the name of the company that came calling. They also owned Kalahari.

Hmm, well.. I guess they weren't serious or Seun is just playing games...

Well, research their parent company's name... That's a good start.

I believe NL is worth more than a million dollars jorh

Mynd_44: I believe NL is worth more than a million dollars jorh

Well, it's one thing to be worth $100million and it's another for people to actually wanna buy it that amount. Sites such as Facebook, Twitter, even Yahoo are testament of this fact. That a house worth $1million (book value) doesn't mean that when it goes on the market (market value), that's what it will be sold at.

well my point is that if I was Seun, I would turn it down too

Mynd_44:

Oh ok...

To me, imo Seun doesn't wanna loose this priceless possession of his(I wouldn't either), not that he doesn't want to sell.
