An avid follower of Nairaland probably a decade ago will understand that Nairaland has lost her savours, interlectual caps and social media as the name goes. Those days as a teenager before l lost my account had men and women of substance whose wisdom and knowledge displayed on comments were another form of school. Even a passer-by will learn from every contribution made. Comments were rich in substance no matter the fallacies.

Comments were based on reasoning and not all this disrespect, insults, tribalism,hatred and teenagers masquerading daily which has made these gentle men and women go on ghost mood.

l agree that some of them are advanced in age now with families and may not be in and out of Nairaland but what happened to that culture?

These people were beyond just interlectuals but will assist you in almost everything. But look at Nairaland, these people who are highly placed in various governent agencies, NGOs and businesses by now that will be helping teenagers but are all on ghost mood.

The annoying part is how people now disrespect others for little or nothing. However, l pity the teenagers, undergraduates and graduates who failed to understand that some dudes here are millionaires and highly placed that can be of help.

This generation will know CAPLOCK. l miss you dude

Seun what happened? I think you deserve a piece of the blame for not policing this platform well. Some of your mods are highly compromised with enforcing and banning of a thing.

I missed the good old Nairaland.

Many have withdrawn their comments and opinions and decided to keep quiet because of the numerous vituperations of the little ones.

There is wisdom in silence.

Many of us still follow occasionally.

Y' all shouting NL has lost its value don't even know what you are saying.

Till tomorrow you will still find comments that are full of substance and intelligence on NL but y'all just want to be claiming 'woke' and 'I too know'.

Even with the bants, the sentiment and tribal disagreement here, you will still find high level of critical reasoning here.

So y'all should stop the NL has lost its value talks.

Since 2011 that I have been on this forum I have always been seeing substantial comments and many intellectuals are still here.
Except for some few 'baby adults' who think NL is where to brag about Yahoo Yahoo business and their imaginary extravagant lifestyle.


NL is still full of highly intelligent people and if you think because people are divided along tribal and religion lines then NL has lost it value, then I will tell you that your assertion is wrong.
Don't blame NL blame your government who have succeeded in dividing Nigerians and it is not only NL you will find tribal bashing, it's everywhere, Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, on the streets and even in the Office.


I don't know what y'all want tho.


The only thing I will suggest to Seun and his mods is that when you ban someone, don't just show for long you are banning him/her let them know why you are banning them so that they won't repeat the same thing when the are unbanned.

Nairaland went down when this ethnic animosity started by Igbo 'Biafran' dullards began. Then the Yoruba 'Afonjas' responded.

That was the end of Nairaland.

NL nowadays is for the toughest...

If your level of tolerance is low, if your cup of anger is almost full, if you are unable to overlook attacks, trolling or abuse, NL is not a place for you.

People stopped proferring solution to Nigeria problems, all what they now do is blame game.

It's natural that humans will always disagree even twins do.

Northerners have proven beyond doubt that common agendum is above individual interest and that's lacking in South.

Nairaland let me know of post-election crisis in 2011 before it got to my base in the north. Most atrocities in the north were not reported in dailies. I was in the north then. Then I was a guest in nairaland. Comments I read in nairaland caused me to relocate.
