isale_ggan: Moderator On Duty,

Can you please un-ban my isale_gan2 moniker, and un-hide my post in this thread:
https://www.nairaland.com/1226926/oga-top-guys-babes-pictures.

I made a post with pictures. The 3rd and last image was kind of big, so I went to modify/remove it, and coldly got slapped-down by pyguru.

There was nothing out=of order about my post. It was simply a comparison between the popularity of the phrase "My Oga At The Top" and the "Don't Tase Me, Bro" craze in the USA a while ago.

Unbanned.

Sorry about the ban.

Dear Mods,

I appreciate your efforts at keeping the politics section "clean", but the rate at which posts are being hidden/deleted of recent, in this section, is quite alarming.

Politics by its very nature is characterized by differences in opinions and very vigorous disagreements, and yes some name callings. Even members of our house of reps have almost resorted to blows during debates - that's just the nature of the beast.

I submit to you that less than 5% of the threads in this section contain vigorous debates and vigorous "fights". I appeal to you to hide only the most hideous posts and those with "obscene" language. Leave the other "fights" alone let the political fights remain in view because they are parts and parcel of politics.

Those who do not want to read those posts can go to the Romance, Culture, Auto section, or other sections where they will not find political fights, which by their very nature will have tribal components. I submit to you that some of these political fights have therapeutic effects.

I'd recommend that you try not to allow threads to contain as much as 2 or 3 pages of "insult ridden posts" for 6 or more hours before you address them. If posts are that offensive, I'm sure someone would have used the "Report To Moderator" button to file a report. Address those reports as promptly as possible, else the whole affair would seem like censorship.

Deleting 2, 3, 4 or more pages of posts in a single thread after they've been in full view for up to 9 - 12 hours, seems to be over the top. Please delete only posts with the most egregious violations. If una like make una put Parental Guidance warning like "Rated PG" in front of the section, or color code certain threads (or label the thread some how) to warn NLers that the thread is a "hot" thread. Make una let us be, we can handle the fights. cool

By the way, you guys are doing a good job, we all know that many Nigerians are cone heads who enjoy trouble making. cheesy

Thanks OAM4J for sanitizing that stewpid thread. Please always hide such insultive posts on time not when the deed has been done. Some animals in this section needs to be taught that there domain remains in the Zoo angry.

@ndu_chuks, I am not holding brief for the mods in the politics section. Rather I'm just replying u as a fellow nairalander. I don't think it would be wise to ignore the insults, bullies and tribal bashings here on NL due to the ffg reasons:

1. It engenders hatred
2. It leads to thread derailment
3. It has no iota of intelectualism in it
4. It discourages people of substance from posting

Even our house of rep members don't resort to tribal bashing. They still remain on point even in their fights and arguments. Thus I think the hiding of insultive/tribal posts and the punishment of the poster is justifiable. However I think more pro-active measures should be taken to prevent the late response of the mods when such offenses are committed.

I don't think we are in much of a disagreement at all and I agree with most of your post. Offending posts should continue to be removed and bans used to encourage posters to follow rules. I was primarily suggesting that only the most hideous posts and those with "obscene" language be removed. This is because "insultive" is a subjective term, and not all tribal posts are offensive. Bigoted posts will always be offensive and I don't have any problem with hiding those. Nothing wrong with good 'ol vigorous exchanges. Note that not everyone is blessed with the talent of expressing his/herself succinctly, without being too disagreeable, as you are.

My post consists of suggestions which may or may not be accepted by the Mods. I'm OK with their decision either way. I continue to appreciate their works here.

Responding in kind doesn't justify your action. Two wrongs do not make a right. You should always report insults to the moderator.

Thanks.


@Obinoscopy

Thank you.

In addition to all you said, we only hide off topics/insultive comments which add no value to the thread. We dont hide heated debate that is on topic.

Afam...in case you haven't noticed, in the last couple of days there have been numerous threads started by disgruntled elements complaining about the marginalization of ibos in all walks of life- Incuding Nairaland, Lagos, Portharcourt, The North, The South, and Outer Space.

This is a very disturbing trend that further demolishes the already dwindling reputation of the black jews on this forum and the world at large.

Maybe you should have a word with the King of Nairaland Jews - Mazi Onlytruth with a view to arresting this frankly irritating trend.

Do not address me as Mr man
I will not accept that from you .You should learn basic courtesy and how to relate to humans.Who do you think you are?
I won't accept it from the owner of the site how much less you?
Fortunately the site does not belong to you so you cannot act capriciously for ever.

You "changed your mind" . You are now God?

If the ban is deserved I will accept it ! i do not need any fake Alamieesigha style reprieve from You! all we are saying is make the rules CLEAR and be transparent.

What is a "tribalistic assertion" ? and how is that different from a stereotype.

It is my view that Ibos whine and complain more than everyone and I said so.
If that flouts any rule make the rule clear.
I do not like you and will not accept you speaking to me in such a rude and condescending way. It is clear I am on your TO BAN list.This time you were Too trigger happy.

What I would like is a review by a non biassed MOD of what I wrote and constructive feedback on if and how it broke any rules
