sexkillz: When you all are done bickering, you'll act accordingly. The tribal talks end on this thread.

We are taking this issue very seriously. Good bye to 2 week bans. The minimum is 1 month, and no amount of pleading will make us unban you.

Desola:

Your kinfolk will shred mine into pieces?

OamforkingJ, I hope you turncoat can read this. Otherwise, when I respond to this lunatic, you will regret the day you were ever voted in as a moderator.

Mo n ja e no warning nisin o.

Issokay.

Issorai!

ilugunboy:


You are Ibo....

So before I read your message...I judge your by you tribe...

So scram away with your holier than thou posture here!

Katsumoto: @ OAM4J

Can I be honest with you?

It appears your objective is antithetic or incompatible to/with Seun's objective. You (mods) can't be suing for peace while Seun is promoting incendiary and mischievous threads to the front page. I realised this many months back and advised that promoting incendiary and inflammatory threads to the FP made no sense. Afam replied that you chaps would look into it.

Nairaland is a microcosm of Nigeria; as Nigeria is sinking, so is Nairaland.


@ Mods

The politics section is not kindergarten; banning anyone for more than 30 minutes is counter productive, illogical, and immature. Since you can't stop folks from registering new accounts, what is the point of unnecessarily long bans? Perhaps there is an aim of getting more registrations even if they are multiple registrations from individual users.

OAM4J:

Our goal is to make sure that people focus on the main issue on every topic no matter how volatile the topic is. Turning it into Igbo/Yoruba war is what we will no longer tolerate. We dont put Igbo Vs Yoruba threads on home page, we wont even allow such threads in politics section anymore.

For instance we can discuss the implications of Fashola's actions without turning it into Yoruba Vs Igbo war.

Banning for long makes sense. We dont need troublemakers coming back every hour to continue giving us troubles. When they create new monikers and continue causing trouble we simply ban the new monikers forever. Its takes us few seconds to ban and remove their posts compare to the time they use in creating those monikers and making the posts.

I CONCUR Ola Johnson!

pls fellas, if these ibos dont stop their spamming , lets introduce ours of Babalaje of NL/Iyalaje of NL. ..and lets see how they(moderators and Seun) will react to our reciprocating to Ibos excesses on NL.

...Starting from NOW

sexkillz: The best thing to do when you see a tribalistic and hate post from anyone is to report it. Failure to do this and replying in kind will earn you the same ban being meted out to the person you reported.

Pls take this issue seriously. We've had enough. Take your tribal nonsense anywhere else but NL.

deeptesting: Well, I have been watching and reading from the sideline, I hope the moderators will grow some balls and ban ethnic bigots forever,blocking their IP address from accessing Nairaland. Nigerians are hospitable and peaceful people, we have to stop this ethnic and tribal bashing before it ruins us. Meanwhile, I have vowed never to put my state of Origin in any official document in this country, my legal team is ready for a legal battle with any institution or authority that will deprive me of my fundamental right as a citizen of this great nation. If we fail at the High court,we will go to the appeal court,if we fail at the appeal court, we will go to the Supreme Court,finally if we fail at the Supreme Court,I will give up my nationality.

biafranqueen: I really hope you guys are serious. I know an American white that I was trying to recruit for a certain business he googled leasing land in Nigeria from that he went to politics sections and told me it looks like a tribal war will start anytime! He was so appalled at the amount of tribalism and started talking about Rwanda and Liberia he thought it was the western influence, but now he is seeing a different side I was really embarrassed and quite speechless. This website is getting a lot of media attention if Forbes.com was to come back and check on progress am sure they would change there tunes. This is really making all Nigerians look bad!

biafranqueen: yes they should block the IP's that is brilliant we must stop making ourselves look ignorant this is not good for bringing in investors.
