Hehehe . I guess that's what this website does. No matter how urbane and civilised you start off as, there's always some twerp on here that riles you up to no end, and b/4 you know it you're mouthing curses that would make even the devil blush . It's called the 'nairaland effect'.

Guys, I used to come to the Politics section to read posts and comments from some very decent guys. Even though nairaland has more than its own fair share of cranks and bigots, there were a few guys who stood above that rot in their analysis and arguements.

In recent times however, these guys have "fallen my hand" (and I'm sure others will agree too) by joining the fray of insulting and tribalist posters, and blind supporters of certain politicians. They have lost their objectivity and now see everything right and nothing wrong with the politicians they support. In addition, they now use loads of gutter language in their posts and comments.

This is really an appeal to them to rise above the rot and do the right thing in spite of the increasing numbers of cranks and bigots we now have on this forum. Gentlemen, find your names below:

(1) Gbawe: Gbawe, in his objective days, was an analyst par excellence. He had the ability to make you see things you did not consider before. Not anymore. I almost do not see a difference between Gbawe and Eko-Ile and Ileke-Idi( Eko Ile and Ileke Idi are the epitomes of how not to behave on a public forum). Gbawe seems to have lost his objectivity. He is not a blind supporter of ACN, Tinubu and the likes. They can do no wrong in his eyes. Sir, please we need you to regain your objectivity and gentlemanliness you were known for. You are not Eko Ile. You are better than that. Stop the insults and crude words and let's have you back at your best.

(2)Katsumoto: Katz actually prompted me to open this thread. I used to read his comments on economic issues with so much respect . I remember one time when he opened a thread on Sanusi and his policies. In spite of the provocative comments by some other posters, Katz kept his cool and my respect for him went up by many notches. It was with great shock then that I read the rather uncouth and crude words he used on another poster (arsenefc). He used many unprintable and near x-rated words. Come on bro, this ain't the you I used to read with so much delight.

(3) Beaf: Beaf, you had the ability to make your points in such a funny way, I could laugh with tears in my eyes. Even though you were comical in your approach, you were not childish. The way you kept soldiering on during the election period when you were almost a one-man army supporting GEJ showed remarkable bravery. But now, you've become something else. You were never really objective but now you seem to have thrown caution to the winds. Your blind support for any and everything GEJ is just crazy sometimes. Nobody can be perfect and you need to be willing to accept that for a fact where GEJ is concerned. And then, I think you can pass your views about Aregbesola across without resorting to childish name-calling and posting really crazy pictures. Beaf, nobody is saying you shouldn't support GEJ, but I still believe you can be gebtlemanly about it and certainly stop being so odious. Don't lose your funniness but please don't be childish.

(4) Jakumo: Bros, you sabi write. And u sabi write sense in a very funny way. What I don't enjoy is how you constantly villify Buhari. You see absolutely nothing good in the man. It's almost like he is the devil and then you call him all sorts of names. I do not like Buhari myself. I believe you can make your feelings about Buhari known without the insults and all.

Thanks guys. Just thought to give you feedback. I know that pressure to give fire for fire can be immense with so many crazy posters here these days. But somehow I believe you can do your own things without going down to the gutters. Enjoy your day.

Eko Ile:

What else is new? The Ideal situation for you losers is for us let you lie unchallenged, distort history unchallenged and spew endless garbage unchallenged. You might want to get over it and deal with the fact that those days are gone.

The fact is, your silly thread lacks the same objectivity you are crying about simply because this is a public forum where opinions and views are certainly different, I don't need you to always agree with me and you don't need me to always agree with you. Objectivity and respect for other people's opinions cuts both ways.

You do have a thing or two to learn about objectivity, I don't have to betray my own thoughts and beliefs just to cater to you or sound objective to you, if you don't like my posts, ignore me and move to the next post, it's not by force and I don't put a gun to people's head and force them to read my posts.

This thread clearly indicates that you do not respect the opinions of the people you named in your disingenuous post, what ever they debate or argue is a reflection of their passion and understanding, it's def' nothing for you to discount just to suit your own fantasy of objectivity.

You don't see the people you named starting threads all over the place to accuse the people they debate of lack of objectivity. People debate with skills, references and passion and for you to discredit their contribution as lack of objectivity sounds pretty mindless, thoughtless and dismissive.

Get over yourself with your mindless and self serving intolerant rubbish, NL is more than big enough for 1 billion different views and opinions.

I'm not on NL to dance for you, cater to you or beg for your respect, I only own myself my own core convictions and beliefs.

DrummaBoy:

Beaf
The OP mentioned eko ile, he may not have listed her

Beaf:

Well, I guess I can grudgingly accept that you have a point. In my defense , I have to say it is not easy dealing with uncouth agent provocateurs hellbent on taking civility for weakness. Nonetheless, you have a point and this reminder is timely. Ultimately, I need to start avoiding distractive elements to focus substantively on educative and stimulating discussions. Thanks.

Obviously, objectivity lies only in the eyes of the flawed beholder.

afam4eva:

You should be the last person to be making this kind of statement. Unlike other sane human beings on this forum, your views are known. You should just build a program that will air your views on Nairaland when you're not around cos your opinions are stale.

BP:


Dear Eko Ile, I only mentioned your name in passing on how not to behave. I do not have issues with who you choose to support or not support. I only think that you can pass your message with decorum. I honestly think that you are one of the people who have corrupted nairaland with your rancorous and uncouth style. It has nothing to do with whether I agree with your views or not. For instance, I do not always agree with the things Gbawe says but one cannot deny the fact that he writes with so much intelligence and analytical reasoning.

By all means, hold whatever views you'd like to hold. We can't all see things the same way. I however think that it is not too much to expect you to be civil when passing your ideas across. No one is beyond hope and I still believe that you can still somehow reach into the depths of your being to find the ability to post on NL with some decency. God bless us all.

BP:


Recently, most of your posts on Tinubu and ACN are almost on the level of blind support. You have almost started playing in the same intellectual slime pit as Eko-Ile.

BP:

@Eko Ile. You are totally right. I shouldn't have responded to you afterall my post was to posters who were on the right track but allowed themselves to be derailed. You are not in that category. I am not sure I have read anything civil from you.

The post I made(which you have quoted) was made in an appeal to ekt bear to desist from behaviour like yours. I still insist that you represent the class of nairalanders that have polluted this forum. But you can change.

Show me one place where I have disrespected the opinions of others on NL. I'll be glad to correct myself if you can show me this example. Telling someone not to follow your bad example is not an insult or a sign of disrespect. It's just a piece of advice. God bless us all.

Eko Ile:

This thread itself is a blatant disrespect for other people's opinion, you have no right to question other people on a public forum how they express their thoughts or debate.

Before this thread, I have ever quoted you or exchange words with you on NL?

Have I ever insulted you or exchange insults with you on NL?

Of course never, but you still managed to quote my name everywhere to spew your hypocritical and self serving rubbish.

So taking a jab at me over what had nothing to do with me and while quoting other people made sense to you? it was civil to you?

That obviously was a disrespect and clear cut insult simply because I did not insult you, I did not quote you, I was not exchanging any posts with you, but you still inserted my name and qualified me as intellectual slime pit

Was that praise words or insult?

Couldn't you have made your point without calling other people's name, without throwing insults at other people that wasn't even talking to your talk less ever insulting you?

You really need to quit exposing your absent mindedness and hypocrisy. 

Your name and civility doesn't go hand in hand so stop the fake rubbish.


Get over yourself and your fake outrage, you are not paying anybody's internet bill.

Mind your own damn business and live and let live.

Damn!!1 I cant stand lying hypocrites.
