Nice move but also ban useless topics from coming to FP like celebrities showing off their clevages and body parts, worthless topics, please. It will also make nairaland a better platform

Why is Dygeasy when you need him?

Dear Seun,

I think you have a long list of things to ban

1. Snake threads
2. Tiwa and Tbillz threads
3. Olosho threads
4. Tonto Dike threads
5. Ponzi Schemes

The list is endless. I believe we are adults here and can make rational decisions, so take note.

Regards,

Concerned NLer

You cannot dictate to humans how to live their lives . I have been on nairaland for years and I have never for once visited some sections like food and fashion. You can create a thread on the dangers of gambling if you do not like it, but forcing people not to air their opinions on a legal entity is not only discriminatory but also a denial of fundamental human right... Right to expression.

Seun:
Dear Nairalanders,

We are thinking of completely banning the promotion of forex trading and sports betting on Nairaland.

Forex day-trading and sports betting are fundamentally fraudulent because they're promoted as a quick way of making money whereas due to mathematical facts, the only people who make money are the middlemen and marketers. The "investors" almost always lose their money.

In our experience, it's not enough to warn Nairaland members about the dangers of forex day-trading and sports betting. The promise of quick profit is just too much for thousands of vulnerable Nairaland members to resist. The only way to protect them is complete censorship.

We believe that the complete ban of such content will make Nairaland a better platform for discussing legitimate entrepreneurship and finance.

What do you think? Please click 'like' if you like the idea; thanks.

Please educate us...how do you associate traders with scam?

Are they trading with or soliciting for other people's money?

Personally, I abhor forex trading but I will not write off the ones who engage in it.

You're correct but banning isn't supported either. Seun has a hidden agenda in which he's not telling us, as a matter of fact, I've been less engaged in NL recently. Seun and his mods advance hate threads by promoting it to the FP, yet he wants to ban forex and betting so as to make NL a better platform... Who's deceiving who?

The only level of sanity is to create specific threads for all that junk, YET, create a different section (like politics) and move it on there... Also, add in a user acceptance agreement that way they're aware of the risk... If he wants to take it a step further, he may decide to vet any company that wishes to advertise their business by making sure they're registered. This is the best you can, anyone of an age that willingly engages in gambling should have an understanding of risk/return. You cannot avert risk, you can only mitigate it...

Nonsense. Sport betting owners are advanced thieves using the internet to rake money from gullible people. [s][/s]
