Romance Section Reunion Thread (how To Move The Section Forward) by xynerise: 12:44pm On Apr 16, 2015
Good day Romancelander,

I have been waiting for a platform like this to discuss how to revive the fun back to romance section but I was disappointed. Romance section used to be competitive, educative, expository and awe-inspiring, but we have lost much of that.

I tagged this a "Reunion" because I need the assistance, experience and intelligence of the oldbies on this mission. Issues on how to move forward and restore back the fun to this section not forgetting to carry everyone along. Issues will be discussed and ideas from everyone is welcomed. We have potential young men and women to make this section regain its lost pride and fame.

I have come up with a contest tagged "You think you know your favourite Nairalander?" which will be discussed as we proceed. I need your assistance in this mission for all to enjoy.

Your contribution will be appreciated.

And the hate filled users be eliminated from the section

We will see to that but age restriction is a form of discrimination. Don't be surprised to get a good contribution from a 16 year old

Romance isn't meant for under 18s. It's meant for 18+
It's far from being DISCRIMINATION

This is fun for every reasonable person, besides how would you tell if they lie about their ages?

I guess the only problem we have here in romance section is immaturity.
Coz an individual is 18+ doesn't mean he/she is matured, i really pisses me off when is see some members who are old enough to be grandpa/grandma behaving like kids over here, opening dvmb and meaningless threads or trying to be ostentatious jez to seek stvpid attention.
If you wanna be funny, you can act funny in a matured way not behaving like kids, see the likes of buygala, tallesty1 and co they act funny in a matured manner but we have bunches of idiots over here that shows their boring talents here thinking they are funny, i won't mention names.

The truth is that there is no solution to the present situation of romance section except those kidults believe itz time for them to grow up.

Back in the days, this section was so funfilled and very interesting, but now, the opposite is the case. The rash of attention seeking, idiotic, meaningless and trashy threads that insult our intelligence is the bane of the Romance section.

The way forward is...frankly I don't know the way forward.

Romance section has lost it peak, its always going to be this way, the mature guys/oldies should have seen it coming.

What is this section all about? That's what we should ask ourselves? Romance-----relationships-heartbreaks,breakups,love etc

I believe the mentioned above had happened to some of us at one point in our lives and as romancelanders we come in here and share it. This same issues can also happen to anyone else probably the newbies/teens who joined recently. they too being romancelanders will come in and share it with us.

This makes the section predictable and uninteresting because same thing happens to different people not at the same time and they will always create thread for it.....to the oldies(this is boring have seen it before) in this case they avoid the threads and later avoid the section entirely.

I'm not a regular here so most threads are new to me but to some oldies they have seen it before.

My recommendation: if you are tired of the section deactivate or move to other sections, because everyday people are having the same emotional issues you had and they will share it as you did back then. OLDIES BUG OFF .....NEWBIES WELCOME TO ROMANCELAND.

About derailers and trolls? MODS DO YOUR JOB!!!

Thank you SIR FALCONEY.

I became very active on this section when it was at it's crumbling stages after the tsunami.

Although things were still going on fine then and the section was sane.

I will simply state the problems I see in this section and how things can be improved.

1)The rate of attention seeking threads and popularity stunts on this section has reached its peak. Such threads even garner more pages than intellectual threads.

The Mods should always endeavour to lock such threads cos to me it's just a waste of cyberspace. And if you've noticed,,such threads are where e-fights occur the most and e-enmity is brewed.

2)There are so many derailers on this section.
They are not helping matters at all. These derailers are just like the boys at alaba market who pirate CD's and spoil producer's business.

In the sense that whenever a thread is created they will just come to derail. Someone will just come to a thread where his contributions are needed,,rather he'll mention his gang of derailers and then they will come there to scatter that thread and fhuuck shìt up.

The Mods are trying on this issue but I think their efforts are not enough as these gang of thread destructors are growing wings and spreading their territories day by day as they get more members.

They know themselves. smiley

3)Members should be encouraged to organise more competitions/events which will be widely accepted by all. Don't organise events just because you want to boost your e-popularity but because you want everyone to join in the fun.

Right now,,we have only the Wooing Challenge as the Mr&Miss NL competitions are now wide spread all over NL.

However,,i think the organising of events should be accrued to people who have stayed in this section for a reasonable while and have seen the way things go down. A minimum of two years at least. They should also be very active members of the section.

This is to enable the success of the competition fully because he/she will have more confidence from the people that it will be organised based on the fact that he/she knows how things are run.

However ideas of events should not be hidden,,it should be communicated with the Mods through mail so they could be notified and give their own suggestion about such events.

No event/competition can be fully successful without the Mods.

#MyPiece.

I think the mods should give long bans to those who post senseless, ludicrous and derailing comments on sensitive threads, like this guy just did.

Of course you do. The mods have the major roles to play in making this section a place to visit. You are too tolerant on irrelevant and annoying topics and some even escape to front page. The amendment should start from the mods' modus operandi.
