Seun:



I am very sorry about this.

PapaBrowne: With rule 17, Seun is actually using sarcasm to take a jibe at Islam.

The rule reads thus: All other religions are peaceful, so no problems will be created if you express yourself freely.
Islam on the other hand is globally accepted as violent, hence we must all try to prevent violence by restricting our freedoms when it comes to issues of Islam.

Ishilove:
So freedom of speech equals bash christianity? So freedom of speech does not extend to Islam but it extends to Christianity? So people are free to blaspheme and make a mockery of christianity all in the bloody name of freedom of speech? I am deeply offended by this Seun, and your curt 'sorry' does not change the fact that you are dishearteningly biased.

Black Peni5: Nairaland is slowly becoming an Fully Academic Forum. If these rules had been enforced strictly in the past, I can assure you Nairaland wouldn't have had as many members as it has today. Most people come here to have fun and not necessarily to debate, argue or proffer solutions to Nigeria's unending problems.

I'm still offended by rule 17 as it makes me understand that other religions can be freely insulted except Islam. Also rule 21 implies that poorly educated people will be banned from this forum.

Meanwhile you could also insert an unregister button for those people who may want to opt out of this New Rigid Institution.

Seun: My Fellow Nairaland Members,

Your mixed reaction erm.... Point of correction, its plural, so you should have gone with reactions 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 These, remember rule 21 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. the mods are as well ignorant by pushing tonto dike's pix th the fp whereby they ignore insightful ones

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 my foot , and we cannot remove we didnt say you should remove it, add Christianity and don't be partial!! that rule without jeopardizing security and the safety of lives. Sorry about this. [b]you need to be sorry for urself oooo[b]

Best regards,
Seun Osewa.

YOU MUST REALLY THINK WE ARE STUPID !!!

gothrones:

You have written lots of dumb posts over the years, but this takes the cake. Can you see the irony, bias, and stupidity of your remark? What is so special about a group of devils who find it amusing to bomb others in the name of their backward religion? And you claim to be an atheist. Idíot!
