- Votes from accounts created before the 1st of April 2015 and with less than 300 posts as at 1st of April would also be counted as invalid.

With all due respect, this rule negates all code of practice if put on the "weighing balance' of logic.


My reasons are:

1. If it's not part of the rules to have more than 300 votes to participate in this contest as a contestant, I don't think it conforms with logic to ask the voters to have 300 posts to their name before they can vote.

2. The moment you register on this effigy of a forum, you automatically adopt the name "nairalander" irrespective of the number of posts you have , and you stand to enjoy all benefit and protection enjoyed by every member(both old and new ).

3. If a nairalander can post , place advert , increase the traffic of this forum irrespective of his or her number of posts, and can only do this mostly as a registered member, then , I see no reason why he or she should be denied an opportunity of voting simply because he or she hasn't posted up to 300 times on the forum.


suggestion


1. Number of posts required to vote should not be a criterion or pre-requisite , rather , time of registration.

2. If possible, and if the rule must stand(I.e if you guys insist) , I think it should be slashed to 40-50 as against the extant 300 posts ceiling set.

3. It's not every nairalander that post regularly. We have people who are as old as Seun on nairaland but still have less than 20 posts. Should they be denied a right , despite their loyalty to this great forum , just because they have a few posts? It shouldn't be so.



Seun , I know you are altruistic towards the members of this forum, I hope you exhibit that trait as regards the points raised here.

seun will note it no worry

beetches and condoms! what a rule!

you should address it to dygeasy.

don't forget to vote Lanicky oh

40? Like seriously? No way!

Maybe 150 or 200



Atleast those who think they can bring out their inactive 'pseudo' accounts have been dealt great blow

No room for multiple voting


Nice one organisers

The reason for the rule is put in check the excesses of multiple voters, though not entirely but to a significant extent. There are many nlders who own up to 40 monikers that can even make a goat win if it contested for this pageant.

that rule cannot address the issue unless if it's made flexible.

'I concurrently concur with the concurrence'.

Phame:

To some extent, it will. Maybe not 100% but Atleast to a reasonable percentage

My exact thought! Most times i click on threads willing to comment only to find out someone else with the same opinion as my own has already posted a comment, i just like the comment and leave d thread- that deos not mean i am not active! Only for me to see that i can't vote because I have not made up to 300 comments.

during the last general election in the country, not everyone with voter's card could vote. Due to many reasons. Some, their fingerprints couldn't be verified.
You see? Not all of us can vote sir

I just turned 18 two weeks before the election doesn't mean i can't vote. So why can't new members vote? Number of post should be reduced to 200 posts!

True talk. I second.
