| A Query For Seun And The Mods by tsmith(f): 2:11am On Oct 23, 2013 |
This has been on my mind, so I might just as well get it off! I do not support or agree with the closure of Ivy blue initial depression/suicide contemplation thread. Here someone reached out in times of need and was lucky enough to get help from the people and kind words on the thread. I remember making a couple of posts on this thread only to find out later that the whole thread had been closed, and all posts hidden. There was no notification whatsoever to contributors, nor justification in my opinion. Do you know the thread could be just the solace that She(or others) draw on period of lows! I have read several times ppl say a thread has encouraged them, kept them going etc. A good example is the 'Adjusting to a life as a widower' thread by Serubawon, this thread has been on for 7 years and the OP himself talks about how the thread had continual helped him through his journey after losing his wife until now that he's found love again. I was not surprised to hear she did succeed in killing herself, nor amused when the thread announcing her death was closed. I don't get what you are driving at as mods, but I will advise that you get experts in matters you are not well versed. You can afford it, and can please stop relying on pro-bono mods off the forum. I think nairaland has passed the level whereby mods or Seun himself act as demi-gods; you own a great responsibility to the followers and nairalanders that have made the forum what it is today and not just take actions like you are dealing with kindergarten kids. Like everything that has a beginning, their is potential end. Actions like this can truly bring a downfall to the forum. Remember, once it was Hi5 etc, but now its FB, twitter and who knows what it would be tomorrow. It would be your loss if you closed down my thread or fail to respond to the issues raised 8 Likes 1 Share |

[quote author=Royal Roy][/quote] I don't completely agree with your explanation. As at the time her suicide contemplation thread was hidden, ivy blue was still very much active on the nairaland n other threads, like the french one. Also, account deactivation or not, I thought one couldn't close a thread, only edit posts etc. I don't buy the idea of as a result of her account being deactivated, it therefore affects every other posts on there. As part of my burial plans, I have asked that my hubby announces my death on nairaland. Nairaland to me had become more than a faceless community and there are relationships I've established here that deserve to known if I die. My hubby contrarily doesn't do nairaland, Facebook etc but would without a doubt want to carry out my wishes. Is that the same way you would close down the thread without asking for prove? Or what prove is admissible in your courts, a Web link or newspaper sighting? Not everyone is going to go the Bawolowo way Yes I appreciate n totally understand rumours shouldn't be encouraged, however there is something called benefit of doubt and innocent until proven guilty. We complain about the govt not having regards for human life n rights, but yet do same on a supposed learned n forward looking forum. A bit disappointing in my opinion. 3 Likes |

tsmith: Don't you think you're going a bit overboard here? I understand that you feel very strongly about the thread you mention as per it's potential usefulness in helping others in similar situations - to draw strength from. But at the end of the day, no matter how supportive (or non-supportive) a poster's thread is, it is their decision ultimately to have it closed down if they so wish. A person deactivating their account will also lead to their named posts (if I understand this process) so that seems to have been the case here (I think). Anyway, I'm just stating my opinion here - but it'll be interesting to see how this pans out... 1 Like 1 Share |

To each his own, its a free world. I never said I was normal; I'm extremely unique. @ Efemena - you are right I feel rather strongly about the thread and issue. I have stated my observations with facts and chronicle, it's for the mods to accept or deny. In the same vain, I have noticed a bit heavy handedness and flippant acts/statements from mods etc (not directly to me, as I don't have a problem playing by the rules) however at the rate Social media is growing, I'm only looking at the bigger picture and potentiality of Nairaland. Seun needs to start thinking of getting professionals in rather than fishing for members that are happy to volunteer time. This is nothing but a word of caution. 3 Likes |

Hey! Mrs, Soraya meant she Ivy blue commited an e-suicide, inorder words she bought a golden rope tied her Online life on Nairaland,and hung it 2 a ceiling fan, 2mins 2 that her tongue pulled out like this  Abeg Nobody died in reality. Leaving that thread open may lead to the girl behind the Moniker, dreaming the Seun in his masquerade regalia was pursuing her with a Cutlass and finally rested it on her head. Who knows, she might not wake up after that. Guess seun realized that, come fear, close thread. 1 Like |
