Fortunately or unfortunately (depends on how one looks at it), the MODIFY button is still available on posts to the logged-in post author. Until Siena or Seun or whoever decides to disable or restrict this, posts won't be cast in stone. Posters would still modify their posts - either maliciously (unfortunately) or with good intentions (fortunately).  cleaver talk. and to add to this, i agree with you that every body is entitled to freedom of speech and expression, so it shouldnt be an offence if anyone changes his mind and decides to modify or withdraw his comment as long as it is allowed. On a more serious only if folks would recognize the following:
1. There's nothin like 'my thread' or 'our thread', once a thread is created, it is open for contribution by everyone, that's why it is called a PUBLIC FORUM.
2. There's no monopoly of knowledge on any issues. Admittedly there might be subject matter experts but that's not to say that someone out there might not have a very useful info or insight on a particular issue that has not yet been given by the SMEs.
3. You can look good with your posts and display of knowledge without necessarily making someone else look bad.
4. There would always be contrasting opinion to yours, learn to live with that. If in doubt refer back to No. 2
5. While giving a contrasting opinion, do it with a sense of responsibility. Don't use it as an opportunity to hang the previous poster, even when it is extremely obvious that his/her post was wrong, full of errors or outright gibberish.
6. While you sure can post anything (well not really - almost anything) you want, save readers an insight into your private matters. "kunle i got your email on abcde, ," "nkiru, I'm yet to read that stuff you sent me thoroughly", "ahmed, i'm sending you a text now, reply me once you get it", "chika, I'm still checking that info we discussed about in the pub yesterday", Cmon. Save us some white space, like anybody really cares. If you guys are really this close, then keep such correspondences to email/sms/phone (since you have it, why not use it).
7. Before posting, THINK THINK and THINK, being a public forum does not mean a license to display your ignorance. If you're not sure, doesn't hurt to check other sources for more information. Google is your friend. Remember THINK again - just before you hit that SEND button.
8.Concerning visa applications queries, like my guy Dantcemu said "you can't submit your application or appeal on nairaland". If you situation is really important to you - learn to research. cmon there's vfs, homeoffice, BIA, travel.state.gov, ukvisas, ait and other authoritative websites on immigration matters. Learn to read through all these and be informed yourselves. The subject matter experts didn't get there in one day, they knew what they know by reading and researching themselves. Be informed and educate yourselves on the issues that concern you, in that way, if you ever need to ask anybody anything, it would be from an informed standpoint and there would hardly be any room for them to put you down.
9. Don't clutter threads with no-brainer one-liners. LMAO, LOL, ROTF, ,   might be cool, but seriously is that the only thing you can post in response to a serious thread. 
10. Don't try to insult people and pass it off as wordplay, one from my friend (my friend? well not really) D-Reloaded here. It's not cool at all.If you have to correct someone's post, cmon give them a little bit of dignity at least. Remember No.2
11.Cliques (if there's anything like that - I doubt) won't help this forum. While you might have a preferred list of posters you'd wish to always respond to or acknowledge, bear in mind that once your post makes it out to the board, it's game for everyone - I mean everyone. If that post is really meant for some selected few, then SEND THEM EMAILS (I'm sure they should be on your distro list if they're really that close to you). Best you can do if someone's desperately seeking your attention in a distasteful way - IGNORE THEM.
the travel section would be a better place.
This is not an exclusive list. Open to anyone to add to the list. wisdom is justified by its fruits. to add to your reasonable contribution, i will like to address pahtakee and friends with the content of the comment which i posted on another thread trying to create an avenue for peace deal, no offence: @partaki and funky, whatever has a beginning should have an end. but in the case with your grudges against whoever he is, i am yet to understand the beginning of it all, and i can't see you putting an end to the struggle. this is nairaland, it is an internet world so there is no need for anyone to entertain a resentment strong enough to justify personal attack at such lengthy period. ok lets say vicjustice offended you, if so, did you inform him of his offence and see if he would not apologise? or, let say your allegations about him are right, why didnt you report to the moderator instead of taking the law into your hands? there is no way you can win a case like this in a court. God save us if everyone has to take the laws into his hand, then nairaland will become a battle ground and that would mean that no noble person will want to be a member. taking the laws into ones hand is a typical nigerian behaviour: if you have grudges with anyone, talk with the person. when anyone offends you, inform him of the offence with integrity and see if he wont apologise. and if a person breaks the rules of the forum, then report him to the moderator and let the law take its course. if all these are observed, there will be no need for personal struggle over nothing. please, lets let peace reign. one love |

@ty4real,
Come June you should be sitting for your exams, go and read. Remember your visa expires in 2011 and you need to have qualified by then otherwise you may have to resort to contracting a sham marriage to get your red passport as one of your close ally's boyfriend was planning to.
Goodluck and all the best with your exams.

@ty4real, another good news from me, the schools I chose are among the top 10 schools in the UK, I took funkybaby's advice and checked myself and even went an extra mile to visit some of the schools personally So, so, make you chill, don't extend too much and when u qualify you can apply for the new post study work experience (replacing IGS) giving you 2yrs instead of resorting to sham marriages and continous extension. |

[quote author= Vicjustice This is not far from the truth. First of all, you originally created this thread to favour your some certain people including two notorious ones whom you obviously observed are random trouble makers, and then, you modified it at the suggestion of one of them. I for one believe that you enjoy all these developments otherwise, you would have taken action. And for the fact that these people are have allowed to continue with their slandering attitude for such a considerable period of time, i'm somehow concerned of the possibility that you're partial, let me not mention the sarcastic comment you once made in support of their opinions. We trusted you, Siena, but don't disappoint us. Vicjustice, please don't draw me into your arguements. Feel free to quote me in any instance, where you feel I've been biased. Why would I enjoy these "developments" as you call them? I do have a life off the internet. As for actions, what do you want me to do? Since you're so wise, make a suggestion! As for trusting me, please tell me where I've betrayed a trust. To a certain degree, I trusted you too, and you have definitely let me down. |

Hello good people,
Please can i use my old passport which expires February 2010 to apply for a two years visa renewal.

You can go on and appy for the visa renewal on the same passport,what embassy asks for is at least 6mths validity and this old passport will be fizzled out by 2010,so if bythen you have a valid visa it will be transfered to your new passport,so thers no cause for alarm but you can try and include the two in your application and let the ECO decide which on he will put the visa But just make sure you put put the old one or you include reasons why you couldnt include it should in case you decide not to include the old one!Cheers |

@ ty4real
Thanks for the reply to my post.
I really appreciated that.
I don't intend getting another passport
I just want to be sure i can use my current passport
to secure the 2 years visa without any qualms
My passport expires February 2010 and the 2 years visa extention
might terminate by May (base on my calculation) 2010, that is 2 months
after my passport expires.
Take care

Your old passport is as good as a new one as long is it's beyond six months of validity at the time of visa application. So, feel free to use it, no prob. |

For those with visa related issues, few resourceful sites below, endeavour to go through relevant ones for information that might apply to you.
Note: Please do not ask me anything on visa issues. I won't be of much help. I don't know that much but what I need to know I'll sure find out one way or the other. Take time and do your due diligence, then come back to the knowledgeable guys in the house with questions that are really worth their time and while. |

de-fraternise indeed make we hear word, i'm sure they're now licking their wounds somewhere. BB has purged the house of the fraternity, she did it all by herself. long live nairaland!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Are you looking for someone to teach you internet manners? You should go and spend your time knowing how to intelligently fill up the UK Visa application form rather than sitting on nairaland poking into matters beyond your level. @ Vicjustice@hotmail.com, You should be utterly ashamed of yourself. A married man, who claims to be a doctor, in his thirties, yet you spend your time sending silly and puerile emails to members of the forum begging and whining and as well throwing childish insults. 3am you are on nairaland posting your idiotuc rants and lies, is your white wife not shagging you? Simply because of you the UK Visa Appeal thread was locked and you proudly stated that. Bloody retard! Go and get a life and stop thinking your life exists on nairaland! @ Mc Omo, These internet ''adetes'' have a long way to learn. Have you forgotten the days of fraternity glorification from some members on this forum? |

@Pataki admin2008 is definitely Vicjustice . . .  really, I must do this because this is where we all started from . . .especially where big bumper started haranguing me . . .allow Vicjustice wallow in his stupidity, at least we have seen bigger dolts, cretins, nincompoops, doofuses, name them the annoying thing is the fact that he sends mail attacking people, whilst claiming innocence here on Nairaland, his foolish stories of how widely travelled raises serious credibilty ratings for him . . . WHY CANT ONE JUST BELIEVE HE IS A SCAMMING WANNA-BE BASTARD and just ignore him ? |
