10 Things Nairalanders Should Stop Doing


4. Stop Mocking Others Grammatical Errors
The reasons why errors are contained in some people's write-up is not because they are grammatically poor but simply because of their typing speed, impatience, anxiety and keypad layout could also be the major factor. Why not sieve the errors and pick the meaningful things on the thread, and if need be to make corrections, do it in a kind manner

10 Things Nairalanders Should Stop Doing

1. Stop Advertising Your Virginity
I observed that people who are virgins chose to outrightly shout and advertise just to show to everybody that they are so disciplined and determined** you don't need all that abegi**


2. Schooling In France
This poo does not sound like a joke, it rather makes you look immature and dumb

3. Rushing To Make The First Comment On Threads
Studies have shown that those who are in a hurry to make the first comment on every thread barely make sensible comments. Many a times, these people make comments before thinking

4. Stop Mocking Others Grammatical Errors
The reasons why errors are contained in some people's write-up is not because they are grammatically poor but simply because of their typing speed, impatience, anxiety and keypad layout could also be the major factor. Why not sieve the errors and pick the meaningful things on the thread, and if need be to make corrections, do it in a kind manner

5. Quoting A Long Post
Quoting a long post can derail a thread. If you think you want to make an opinion about a long post, why not mention his/moniker and explain yourself out

6. Not Every Thread You should Comment On
Nobody is an island of knowledge so you can't have an idea and solution to all problems that arise. When you have no relevant advice to give, why not view the thread and fuccck off rather than posting poo or displaying the greatest height of illiteracy

7. Stop Condemning Threads
I must say it is not easy to undergo the stress of typing and racking your brain to bring up something, only for someone to storm on the thread and start saying the write-up is bullshit

8. Stop Referring To People As Being Jobless
This is kinda annoying. Not all addicted Nairalanders are jobless as you think. So are self employed and can't do without nairalanding every hour, so why refer to others as being jobless when you have no ides of what they are doing for a living ** it hurts**

9. Stop Condemning The Moderators
Some people will condemn Seun and other moderators that they are not doing enough. It's not easy to maintain a forum where internet tigers will want you to make a favourable policy

10. Respect Other People's Way Of Talking
Some can't write in epistle, some aint really good in English Language while some aint good in punctuations. It does not make them less intelligent nor render them useless, so there's no point outrightly telling them to obtain a Jamb form

That guy's diary is annoying! angry
what do i think of this naff jibe? Not much of a cop. I'm easily insouciant to what you think.
But, let me nippily say that less infernal people discuss ideas, not a person's diary that is no skin of their noses. Ditto for a person's diction. Have your dictionary for a dinner.

cupidhero: i think those who love using big words when writing a dairy is just plain stupid.
if shedding ones thoughts in ones choice words (accumulated from a patient period of study) is plain stupid, then you are blandly asinine since you are also fleshing your conjecture in your own choice words. Spare me the rabid comprehension argument. Who says avid readers don't figure sense in what we write. Only less than studious fellows find incubus making sense of our write-ups.
Come to think of it, a diary is for an audience of one. My diary is solely for me. Not for you to make a meal of. nosey-parker!

cupidhero: Big words don't make you intelligent.
neither does using "small words" make you intelligent. Intelligence has zilch to do with a man's knack for the letters. Einstein, soyinka et al spoke and wrote in english every bit your idea of "big words", yet they were no less sapient than Achebe who wrote fairly simply.
One thing your ilks always fail to grasp before setting indolent thumbs to worn-out keypads to spew out flimflam is that every writer, every speaker has a distinct style of writing, of speaking the random readers/listeners will come to appreciate. Just time. No true writer deliberately sets out to impress. If you think it's relatively effortless to write in and speak with "big words" in a manner of speaking, try it and you will see how fatuous of a clown you will make of yourself.

cupidhero: Write to convey a sensible message instead of writing to impress the fans of Hon patrick obahiagbon.
permit me to borrow the words of the bible-holding, holy faves - if our gospel is lost, then it is lost to the unbelievers. If our messages are meaningless as it were to you, it only means you have a dearth of perspicacity. And you have a need to read more avidly to pick up more words. We weren't taught synonyms et al in school for the purpose of just to read and pass it. They were taught for some plausible reasons. And one of them is to equip you to comprehend write-ups like this, like mine.
It might interest you to know that while you might cavil at the lofty writing and speaking styles of soyinka and patrick obanhiagbo respectively, a few of us find them perfectly relaying meaningful messages. Nobody is impressing anybody's fan. We write sponteinously in 'big words' just like you write sponteinously in "small words". If writing sponteinously tantamounts to impressing Patrick's fans, then it is safe to conclude you are also impressing your patience Jonathan's fans..

cupidhero: True intelligence starts with you not being a conformist. be yourself and stop sounding like a worthless piece of literary art.
and you are not a conformist? Why do write 'simply'? Are you not conforming to the popular trite notion that it is better to write simply? What does that make you? A non-conformist? If anything, you a conspicuous example of a conformist. True intelligence is certainly not your perquisite.
Yes, we sound like a wortheless piece of literary art for employing vocabs. And you sound like a lame pupil who just left primary school with no vocabs.
You snivelled in vacuity as if these so called "big words" are french words, that they are not in the dictionary. What i expect you to be pedant about is to spot out grammatical errors.
I'd be glad if you can confidently pin-point grammatical errors in what i have written since you seem to find fault as if there is a reward for it.

If you are as intelligent as you want to make your sheepish, suggestible disciples to believe, then you shouldn't be here writing about me. For intellgent folks discuss about anything but people

Epaul, Your diary is yours & not mine. I'm sorry for criticizing it in public. I unfollowed it weeks ago. I should have left it at that. Just a quick question, do you talk like this in real life?

That's if they'll first google some of his words and see how they are relevant to the context used. It's not our business though, it's up to Cupid and Francis.
