Nairaland forced me to get closer to nigerians which I'm not used to in real life,
   I use it to get fun each time I'm bored, especially when it's time to fight D-reloaded or Hotfunmi will make my day.

Hi 2 all, let's try to be sincere, some of us have made great friends through this forum, a lot of fruitful business deals have been made thorugh this forum and quite a lot got their first jobs thorugh information posted here. So who says nairaland has not changed lives.

I got introduced to Stock market through this forum and I know how much I've made (and lost!). I was influenced to get my first satelite dish through posts on Free - to - Air and ever since then I've been an addict to FTA.

Personally, I think the strong point of nairaland is the ease with which one can easily share and access information and the oppurtunities that come thereafter.

Its kept me sane these past months,,, (esp with not being able to access messenger or facebook at work)
I've been so crazy busy and tied to a PC this past couple of months that my social calender is dusty,,,
Nairaland is my sweet escape,,, i only have to log on and read some mindless rubbish to hav a good laugh,,, 
Changed my life? that hasnt happened yet, but it has made it more interesting  grin

Re: How Has Nairaland Changed Your Life? by dee02(m): 3:29pm On May 11, 2008
I met my number one ENEMY on nairaland becoz until then i didnt have one
I bet he/she is an old grumpy clueless fu/ckhead who sits down in front of a clapped out computer fidgeting, playing with his/her Instruments and picking up the NOSTRILS intermittently while waiting for me to put a comment down! (which can then be fed upon, taken too serious and blown out of proportion)


On the other hand, my girlfriend aint too impressed becoz she just cant get her head round the whole addiction, but then shez addicted to FACEBOOK!

I think we changed Nairaland, Nairaland didn't change us, If not for people that post their minds and quoatas it will probably be in its shadow, To me I have fun especially when am bored and trying to get escape Nairaland and NVS are there for me.

One Love.

Re: How Has Nairaland Changed Your Life? by lalaboi(m): 5:48pm On May 11, 2008
it certainly does change some ppls lives i surpose!  nairaland is as addictive as heroin!
ppl com here for a lot of things! some come here for gals, some for ''cyberfight'', some come to share usefull info and data, make friends, even d yahoo guyz use this site and so on.

it changes lives in a way that u go to college get back and d next thing u do is stay glued to ur monitor! laughing and ppl around think u r in sane! they look at wot u r doin and they dnt understand!  am sure that happens to a lot of ppl.

i was once an addict! but i thank God am not nemore! lol! u get tired when ppl start takingg d piss! no one shows respect and d whole thing starts changing u! and yea u meet good friends and pretenders who sometimes u cnt wait to talk to again, friendly or ''fightinly'' {dnt mind my oyinbo, its in my dico}

evritin just dey ok sha!  bt wen u reach 1 stage, u go just fashi am say ''u get better things to do''  unless u jobless!!

It got me to notice some wicked Graphic Gurus eg. Gamine, Moondust, Sirgai, Justbones, Raymond88, Damseremie, Smartsoft, Realborn, Oyb - the list is almost complete!  grin

Anyways, it's been challenging learning different stuff from these dudes and chics, and of course I'm a better guru myself!

Cheers

I have had so many laughs on this site.
Re: How Has Nairaland Changed Your Life? by oYaTo(m): 9:05pm On May 11, 2008
@ HR.hotness I'm in d same shoes as well. . .can't access messenger/facebook at work, and Nairaland happens to fit in nicely. . .

Never a dull moment grin

I can log in at any time and have a good laugh.

Also the fact that u can be totally free to yab anyone anonymously, and at the same time dish out advice while staying objective. . .I guess that's why online forums like nairaland will continue to thrive.
Re: How Has Nairaland Changed Your Life? by vicade(m): 9:15pm On May 11, 2008
