I have been on NL for less than 2 months. I always try to improve upon myself, so I'm throwing open this honesty thread, following Tudor's advice on https://www.nairaland.com/nigeria/topic-368196.0.html#msg5148215 : As Tudor said,
What do you really think about my method of info presentation in my posts? Please vote, and (all kinds of) comments are also very welcome. Thanks. -Maven P.S> My previous ID is currently unable to post, due to an allegation of spamming the forum. I am using this until that is resolved. Thanks. |

@manmustwac: Thanks for your comment. Mavenb0x: I never posted spam, it must have been an error. Then I opened a Get Satisfaction ticket but I have not yet gotten any response. |

@ OP If I were u, I would not be bothered. peoples opinion does not define you. . . .it only expresses what they see. . .their view might also be beclouded. my point is dont take people\'s opinion too seriously. . . if u enjoy ur posts. . . .nothing should stop u from making them. |

@Noetic: Thanks, bro @Candylips: Maven is my name. @SeanT21: It's me, sis, the same person that tried to offend you within three days of joining Nairaland 'cos I was playing a prank :p I posted something twice mistakenly, and so my posting privileges were revoked. I have appealed but no response yet, so I just re-registered with a zero instead of an o: mavenb0x. You can confirm from the signature on my previous profile: https://www.nairaland.com/nigeria?action=profile;u=423534 |

I thought you said you can never be banned welcome to nairaland I think the chief writer of unnecessarily long posts often times designed to confuse is Pilgrim.1 a.k.a viaro. |

noetic15: Do not mind Noetic, although other's people's opinion should not define who we are, we cannot live outside of societal acceptability. it is natural to care about what other think about us. That is why people who are in the public eye pay public relation offices so much money. A bad reputation or a wrong perception can have serious consequences on all facets of our lives like our home, offices and even Nairaland (ask Becomerich). Like the saying goes; if you want to hang a dog, give it a bad name. Now back to the topic at hand. Yes i think your posts are sometimes too long, you should realize that most people have very short attention span. You can hardly keep their attention for more than 5 mins at a time. I think you are a matured, pleasant, intellectual but overly religious person. |

I certainly agree with wirinet\'s submission. . . , but still advise that u dont work urself out too much to please people. |

I think the issues you try to resolve are the culprit here. Most questions on NL now seem to me to carry a trap or mischief. Short answers oftentimes cannot cut it at the risk of you looking evasive. More importantly (and I'd bet my nose on this) is that I think your intellect makes you look at most people as needing extra tutoring to catch your point. I think I also had that problem till I came here and found people discussing science using words I'd never heard before. Nigerians are very intelligent and very educated. Point is, the more intelligent they are, the less you need to tell them before they get your point. Anything over that and they see it as boring since you made your point eons ago (forgetting some don't get it as fast as they do). Just do your thing but address the big brains here (the sophistication of their vocabulary will identify them) with less words. Tudor and Bawomolo are prime examples of such really intelligent people. Just consider their vocabularies. And dem plenty small here. PS: That is also why they never get satisfied. They need complication to function |

Maven, just be yourself: there are over 400, 000 peeps on this forum and so you will find all sorts. If a long post inspires even just 1 person, its worth the while. Many may be impatient, but believe me there are many quiet readers who lap it all up, get inspired and go away silently. I'm not saying brevity is not good: am saying Just be yourself. You are talented: and it is the prerogative of the talented to be eccentric or idiosyncratic. To hell with democracy. That being said although i love you to bits and am broken hearted that you have consigned me to the wastebin, i do think that an excess of dogma within your propositions is also a turn-off. One love. |

DeepSight's another one of them. Notice the vocabulary? See the dis-satisfaction? |

@KunleOshob: LOL I believed that if I abide by all forum rules, am satisfactorily civil, and I didn't spam I would be ok. But I never imagined that my internet connection could temporarily fluctuate, causing me to refresh and submit my post 2ce, and cause a ban for me! Thanks bro! By the way, Viaro is a guy, so I am not sure he is pilgrim, unless pilgrim was a guy in disguise (highly unlikely). @wirinet: Thanks for the advice! And for the compliment, that's so nice for you to say! Sorry I haven't been so nice to you, I have a lot to learn in communication, as Tudor has said. Overly-religious (Sigh) I am not half as religious as i ought to be, as it's by their fruits you know them, and not by their many green leaves. What you can see of me right here is just many green leaves, it's in reality that you can see that my ripe fruits are not yet half-as-religious enough. |

@noetic: Aye, Aye, Cap'n. I catch your drift, so I'll drop anchor between your mark and wirinet's @nuclearboy: You are absolutely right on the 1st point, sir. I will adhere very well to your advice (Your 2nd point is very true, I am often thus-accused in reality). The most intelligent people I think I have met on NL so far, I met them all here on the Religion threads. You guys rock! I have learnt so much from all of you (one way or the other) and I mean it. Thanks, everyone! |

@DeepSight: If a long posts inspires even just 1 person, its worth the while. Many may be impatient, but believe me there are many quiet readers who lap it all up, get inspired and go away silently.Yes sir! That was my perspective, but now I think I am going to be more ascetic with words That being said although i love you to bitsAwww!!! DeepSight, you make me wish. . . Okay, now, let me be ascetic with words at this point and am broken hearted that you have consigned me to the wastebin, i do think that an excess of dogma within your propositions is also a turn-off.But that's not so! I never consigned you to the bin, sir! The only people I ever did such with are Viaro, Krayola, Pastor AIO and Olabowale and we're all good now (except the last guy that still likes plaguing me, I try to ignore him). But no comment on the excess dogma, Lord DeepSight. @Nuclearboy: LOL. You sef!!!! |

Yes,your post are too difficult to read through because they are too wordy. People's opinion matters. Why should you spend too much time and energy typing what the majority can't read through?You may have valid points but they need to read through before they appreciate your points. |
Re: "mavenbox's Posts Are Unnecessarily Long And Boring". Please Vote. Thanks! by JeSoul(f): 4:34pm On Dec 21, 2009 |
Maven, your posts are long and many times I don't have the time to read through. But that being said stick with the good advice people have given you to just be yourself. Like I mentioned to you once, brevity and verbosity both have their advantages and disadvantages. Noetic, it is not a problem jor . . . as long as na christian woman wey go steer him in the right direction issall good! |

Why was the poll changed? Is this some sort of fraud to make you look good? I think the point has been passed across overwhelmingly. . .your posts are unnecessarily long and boring. pls show us some love and spare us this cruel unusual punishment. Others like viaro and olabowale should take note. |

@Tudor: In case you didn't notice, all the polls on Nairaland seemed to malfunction one or two days ago, I think. It seems they were all reset or something. And thanks for voting YES again. I can see you just did. @JeSoul: No be like that o. My grandma used to say (She is Yoruba) "Oun ti eniyan o ba ni je, won kii fi run-mu" i.e. Don't sniff what you won't eat. I extended the saying to "Don't eat what you won't swallow, and don't swallow what you won't digest". I know how I can be, so I try to keep detached as much as possible. Noble cause sha |

Mavenb0x:lol, I hear oh jare. One must be able to draw the line. There was this friend I was trying to lead right, few conversations and meetings later I thought we were making some progress. Until he asked me if I'd like to go away with him for the weekend and "talk" its dangerous when opposite sexes are involved. This is why Jesus had 12 male disciples, no need to throw in a woman in there and throw all of em outta wack all in the name of false equality. |
