Why don't you just take that epistle down once and for all...



All those rule & regulations na wash... (you self ma know say na wash).

Na today ¿¿

In other wards “insult Christianity but not islam”

this is the highest form of ignoramous display i'v read from u seun. U have to modify that nonsense rule 17 or nothing else. Ur reasons r filed with naivity. Nor be ur fault seun. St..p.d

Seun do something on no 17 cus Islam is a religion the same as christianity, so any body can post offensive comments against other religion but not against islam. Seun I am disappointed, its better u tell us u are a muslim or that the boko boys have threaten u

Ok o

Seun: My Fellow Nairaland Members,


Rule 17 is the most controversial rule because it sounds unfair. My fellow moderators have debated this rule at length and it could not be changed. We cannot extend the prohibition against offence to other religions because that limits your freedom of speech, and we cannot remove that rule without jeopardizing security and the safety of lives. Sorry about this.

Best regards,
Seun Osewa.

YOU MUST REALLY THINK WE ARE STUPID !!!

Seun: My Fellow Nairaland Members,

Your mixed reaction to the "new" rules have not gone unnoticed. While most people actually liked them, many people had one complaint or the other. To address your concerns, I have modified rule 1,4, 13, 15, and 21. I believe you will be pleased with the changes: https://www.nairaland.com/1026/nairaland-forum-rules-regulations

This rules are not as new as many people think. They are essentially the rules we have been enforcing all along, but they have been expressed in a more compact form to encourage you to actually read them. I created the 1st draft on the 7th of April and my fellow moderators gave me a lot of feedback which I incorporated into the rules before publishing them yesterday.

Safety of life?? Na wa ooooooo in dat case expunge religion from dis forum afterall...ur mods are athiests

let's take a vote. Expunge those voted against. . . .i beg oga seun,float nairaland so we all have a say.

I am new on nairaland, how do I comment

I think the final rule should be against moderators pooling the front page with suggestive pictures of celebrities and asking us "Who wore it best?" These photos leave subliminal impressions on the minds of viewers (mature or not) and do not add any value to the forum: there are too many perverts already; don't inflame inordinate passions in people today and cry foul tomorrow when a close associate of yours is violated. This is my sincere plea!

This rule 17 is inconsistent and what you do with this is to actually patronize Muslims by saying they need special protections otherwise they'll go on a murderous rampage. That prohibition does limit the freedom of speech on this forum. Though it is within your prerogative to decide whether or not to grant posters here the freedom of speech, I think more speech is generally preferable to less especially when the reason for limiting speech "offense to religion".

To the Muslims out there who keep shouting about "Islamophobia", do you think this rule portrays your religion and its adherents in a good light? Is it "Islamophobia" to hold Islam to the same standard as other religions? How about holding Muslims to the same standards as other religious believers?

Don't blame the guy.. Christians do not pick up machetes and guns because of a sentence, cartoon or movie cos their God fights for himself. Muslims on the other hand...

When it comes to religion it's better you treat all parties involved equally or exclude them completely. I will take the latter in my opinion.

While the rules r okay,but no 17 is my problem,if its good for islam,then it should be good for xtians,pagans,Buddhist,etc,I believe in equal rights n justice,tanx#original niger delta dan dada#

you are actually creating more problems on this forum than solving, in the face of justice and equity all should be treated equally, you have now given more leverage to muslims and non christians alike to insult christianity!!!

rule 17 is the crux of the matter.

What kinda bull**** post is 'rule 17 can't be changed cos it limits freedom of speech'? The entire 21 rules limits freedom of speech! Maybe Christians should place a fatwa on your head since you (in conjunction with the goons) have termed only Islam a sacred religion. Our request is simple: Modify the rule or Scrap it totally. We don't want your apology, guys still dey vex. Meanwhile, who be the majority NLers wey support this dictatorship?

Seun na useless yoruba man whr too dey fear those aboki. How dare u support Islam n throw Christianity to d cleaners. Am so bitter abt dis bullshit.Guy sit up make person no pour u acid. Na wetin?

BarryX: Try Removing that Long list of the New post ! It makes commenting boring not that people read anyway cos I don't! If the rules are not new why the emphasis ! Still not impressed but it's your thing .. Do it the way you deem fit

I understand that it's inconvenient to have to scroll through the rules before each post, especially on mobile phones. This will be fixed soon.

Seun:



I am very sorry about this.

Take that 'sorry' and shove it where the sun doesn't shine. Coward. I do not understand why everyone is so afraid of those Muslims.

If my oga at the top do not include christianity in rule 17, then I will tel the whole world that he is a member of boko-haram

Seun:



I am very sorry about this.

What is this guy saying for God's sake? U mean its okay to insult any religion but Islam..Rule 17 defies every form of logic and reasoning..Highly dissapointed in this fellow here.

Nairaland is becoming complex and confusing day by day... Smh.

21. Please post in proper English and spell your words correctly.



seun wetin be dis? no make i vex ooooo,me wey no sabi type simple and correct English nko?? Spelling sef,na last i carry??
oya my Oga,wetin I go do na?

Seun your rule nos 17, no command, no sharia law nos 17 is totally unacceptable to xtaians because any insulting words thrown at our saviour nd God will lead to a serious religious war on NL, pls to avoid this rephrased that decree or abolish it totally. Our prophet Moses told us to take an eye for an eye, nd a tooth for a tooth, silence is not cawordice. Thanks.

you go fear constitution. Not all rules are written to be obeyed

Seun:



I am very sorry about this.

Show that u are sorry by changing the rule no 17. Any body who apologize without making amend of his offence is not worthy of forgiveness, bear that in mind Seun
