1. Derailing
~ This is a very common vice on this section. You see people just purposely deviate from the subject and main purpose of a thread for no reason.
Some even come in groups, and start "greeting" themselves and discussing about their daily activities not minding what the thread is about.
This can be frustrating for whoever created the thread as well as those who would want to gain a thing or two from the thread.

2. Engaging in E-fights
~ This is another common day to day occurrence on this section.
You have people throwing insults and jabs at one another all in the bid to frustrate or belittle the other person
Some people even go as far as perusing the english lexicograph, looking for "big" words to use trading words with a fellow romancelander
This doesn't just dent the personalities of those engaging in these fights, but it is also deteriorating on the image of romance section as a whole

3. Trolling
~There are some people that have been accredited with this title.
More often than not, you see people just create topics that are totally silly and preposterous, just to gain attention. You see some fabricate cock and bull stories that don't correlate, just in the bid to wrongly convince others

4. Using curse/swear words
~There is a reason why the Nairaland admin censored some words but most of people just evade the censorship by perhaps adding an extra letter or using some punctuation marks or non-english letters.
Please using curse words doesn't tell well on our characters in terms of being civil or well mannered, whether you use it in written or spoken form

5 "Woman wrappering"
~This is demonstrated in various ways. For example you see guys creating threads just to exalt the physical attributes of a female nairalander.
Some notable guys are guilty of this.
You see them create threads just to the emphasize on the size of a ladies mammary glands or her buttocks or just to accentuate on their so called infatuation with her.
Other times you see guys just support a lady on a comment she makes not because she is actually making sense but because he just wants to win her favor.
Come on guys, playing sycophant to a lady only diminishes her perception of your worth

6. Making comments that are of a sexual nature and posting explicit pictures
~Please guys there was a reason why sexuality section was created.
Let's submit ourselves to the law


7. Getting banned and creating another moniker just to announce your return
~Most times you see people just 2-3 mins after they are banned, create a new moniker that bears similarity to the former one just so they can announce to their friends and "haters" that they are back
Although this can be very hilarious at-times but your just have to affirm to the fact that its wrong
Whether the ban received was deserved or not, you shouldn't just create another moniker to announce that your return
It reeks of childishness of a high degree

8. Jumping on threads just to insult the Op or make mockery of the thread
~This is also another annoying thing most romancelanders are guilty of
You see some people just enter a thread and say things like
"Useless thread"
"Op, you need sense"
"Senseless thread"
Or they post a meme that's even says worse things
Its true that some peoples thread can be really aggravating at times, but we can be more constructive in our criticism

9.Insulting the moderators
~ Moderators are here to fulfil there obligations and make sure that everyone in this section adheres to the rules, so its overly wrong to throw insults whether directly or indirectly at a mod just because the person was doing his/her job
The moderators are humans and at times they may be a bit erroneous in their judgements but that shouldn't warrant insults


10.Keeping personal beefs
~This is a faceless forum, so I see no reason why someone will be hating on a fellow nairalander but sadly some are still guilty of this
You see them attacking some people without even being mentioned.
Some directly bash the comments of others just because they have beefs or are not at terms with them

Please guys feel free to add yours

NB: I am also guilty of some of these points.

Attention seeker! Dis topic has been created and recreated so many times! Na wa oo

This $hitz happens in real world, why not virtual world?

Yes, they are monikers, but it is real people with real emotions with real issues behind them----despite the differing 'personas' people MAY assume.

I have probably violated some of those rules, but there you have it.

Bicker, derail, wrap, sexualize, troll, mock, insult, hate on (hatorade), get banned and jump on the band wagon and do it all over again.

That's life--real or virtual.

Thank GOD you knw you are...

Space booking or " buying plots". It makes no sense

missclasssy you're guilty of no.7, ur other moniker is missclassy

Most importantly, we need to stop creating threads as senseless as this one

Missclassy, If u check my post on Disgusting things people to gain popularity on nairaland, u will discover this thread u just created will make people bash u. Saying the truth on this forum is waste of time and energy. I applaud your effort dear.

11) Hypocrisy..... op is guilty of every single point made.

Hello missclasssy

How are you this evening?

Lol dnt forget woman wrapping with male moniker.

D1ck:
All these traits you listed are the characters you exhibit @ Op.

You derail with your Daveguy50 acct.
You engage in E-war, troll and seek attention with your seriousbabe acct.
And you have the most monikers on this section. And you have the guts to open this kinda thread! Smh 4 u

First of all, my missclassy wasn't banned. I deactivated it myself

That's wasn't even what I initially meant. I was expatiating on the fact that some people deliberately create similar looking account to their banned account, just to make fun of those that banned them or those that led to their being banned

And without these things Nairaland won't be fun again. We must not be serious all the time na.
