WebmastersRe: Let's Talk About Rejecting Web Jobs by Afam(m): 10:53am On Feb 22, 2008
A very good topic.

The ability to look a client in the eye and say no to a web project even when money is on the table is hard but worth it. As long as you have a good reason to say no to a web project then it is all well and good.

Interesting points on outsourcing too. I would not outsource a project to someone I cannot vouch for, in fact even if I can vouch for the person what happens if the person decides to mess up the project for some reasons?

If you cannot do it, let the person look for someone else that way no one will blame you when something goes wrong.

Sometimes I ask clients to provide their account numbers so I can refund any money paid if I notice they are becoming too problematic. It saves one the stress and wahala of managing difficult clients because your best clients will never give you problems.

We are now where we should have been.

I maintained from Day 1 that interswitch will not last because they failed to learn how to implement an online payment system, getting and configuration a payment script is certainly not enough and it is not surprising at all that we have gone round the bend on this one.
WebmastersRe: Why Web Hosting Companies in Nigeria Should Reposition for 2006 by Afam(m): 12:09am On Feb 15, 2008
niyyie:
There is no reason why Nigeria cannot do it. A substantial percentage of websites in Egypt and South Africa are hosted locally.
We just need to get our act right.

NB: Too bad some of the "web hosts" mentioned earlier in this thread have closed shop.
Why won't they close shop when they fail to face reality and talk as if they are in control of people that should spend money for their services.

The same thing is happening to a lot of web designers and developers who after bragging about doing big projects disappear completely.

A lot of Nigerians are talented but again until reality is faced many will continue to misfire.

The average nigerian home already pays so much more for electricity than people who actually have 24/7 power supply do.
Can the statement above be substantiated or must people just come up with crazy statements that may just be outright lies?

@the identity switchers,

I may be many things but I will never stoop so low to switch and fake identities neither will I continue to register new usernames anything I am banned from a forum.

When people have no shame anything becomes perfectly normal and cool.

You guys stink, you are all common criminals as far as I am concerned.

PoliticsRe: Us Intelligence Chief Retreats On Iran Claim by Afam(m): 10:13pm On Feb 08, 2008
TayoD/Tayo-D, pahtahkee,

You guys are simply criminally minded that is why you don't see anything wrong in faking identities all the time.

About the topic, I saw a post with the name 4 Play and clicked on it, immediately I realized it was the same I-man who may have been using many usernames here and I felt that it was not fair that some people here use multiple identities because at the end of the day you cannot even be certain that you are dealing with real people but with multiple personalities of a few people.

So, I cannot waste my time discussing with criminally minded rogues like you people.

By the way this topic was lying idle until I responded to it while making it clear that you people should stop this shameless act.

Anyway, criminals don't see anything bad in what they do so I am not surprised that you see your actions as normal, silly things.
PoliticsRe: Us Intelligence Chief Retreats On Iran Claim by Afam(m): 1:01pm On Feb 08, 2008
4 Play/I-man, TayoD/Tayo-D, mr pataki/pahtahkee,

Since you guys believe it is perfectly normal for you to use multiple IDs on a discussion forum after being banned then it means that you guys are shameless.

Must you use a forum when you cannot abide by the rules set by the owner? You guys sound desperate as if you don't have any life outside this forum.

It is such desperation that is affecting you people and has blinded you guys into thinking that using/hiding under different user names is a cool thing.

Continue with your shameless acts, it is only sad that such multiplicity of identities may have put a lot of people off on this forum as you never know who is making a point and who is supporting the same point since some of us here can actually have up to 3 or more usernames at the same time.

Tayo-D:
@Afam,
This has nothing to do with hypocrisy. It has to do with telling you what to do in order to confirm or dismiss the notion you have. My last statement should not be read in isolation from everything we've said thus far. You made an accusation which you should provide a proof for. I told you how to get the facts you need. Do I still need to dig up those facts for you? If I just show you a statement without you knowing how I dug up that statement, don't you think it will provide more room for more speculation. That is why I feel you should make the research yourself.

Since we've diverted this topic long enough, here's the info you wanted. It is my first posting with this username on Sept 25, 2007 - @topic,

Okay I am back, albeit with a new user name. No thanks to the Obatanlapitipiti of nairaland. I was banned for bringing attention to his hypocrisy on the topic about King David.
Ok, not everyone sleeps and wakes up on the Religion Section so there is no way I would have come across that considering the fact that many of you that try to pretend to be good christians are filled with hatred towards a people which is pure hypocrisy and sycophancy.

So, on the issue of I-man/4 Play, he could not deny it when he was exposed, if you want proof just ask him and I am sure he has been embarrassed enough on this forum so should be able to respond to you, truthfully even if this will be his first time to do so in a long long while.

pahtahkee:
Shut up, you this dog! Even a slowpoke can decipher who is behind the name. I don't blame you. It is just your constitution to always remain daft. cheesy
Can you imagine? Someone who is constantly switching identities is beating his stupid chest that even a slowpoke should know he was switching identities. Wonders shall never end, maybe tomorrow armed robbers will brag that people ought to know them.

Tayo-D:
@Afam,
If you are interested, you could easily find this yourself and so will anyone who cares to research into issues they are interested in knowing the facts about.
That I chose to respond to you does not mean everyone will do the same. As for Davidlyan, everyone know he changes identities when he is banned and he never tries to hide his true self. As for 4play/Iman, I have no proof to assume it is the same person. The burden of proof is left with you the accuser. That is the way logic works.
How convenient, I make a statement and you insist I should provide proof, you make a statement and when asked to provide proof you veer off and tell anyone that cares to research, you see the same level of hypocrisy that I have been complaining about?

pahtahkee:
Discussions are based on topics not on the discussant personality.

Afam learn to keep that in mind!
Another stupid person hiding under different identity. When you guys are banned for whatever reasons why not stay away, is it by force to use a forum especially when you cannot abide by the rules set by the owner of the forum, you guys are pathetic.

Tayo-D:
@Afam,
No I'm not. I used TayoD up until the time that user name was banned by Seun becuase I told him he was a hypocrit. I created a new user name Tayo-D, a close resemblance to the intitial one and my first posting on using the new ID was to acknowledge that I am the self same person. I have never used TayoD since I began using the new user name, and both are with the same signature.
Are you saying you have no proof? So quit making accusations without proof. this forum is for those who make their points while giving reasons for that stand. No one learns from people who make a point without providing the backgorund and the information that led to that position. And by the way, armed robbers have been knwon to be prosecuted in court by those who fell victims to them.
Good for you. Can you reproduce your first post where you specified that TayoD and Tayo-D are one and the same person?

Maybe you need to invite your friends like 4Play/Iman and Davidylan/4Him,PTH etc to explain why they were hiding under different usernames until they were exposed.

Perhaps you will do everyone aworld of good if you provide both.
Are you guilty of using multiple IDs on this forum?

Tayo-D:
If it is so glaring, it shouldn't be any bother for you to provide the proofs then.
If you use a gun to rob people all the time and ask me to provide proof don't you think it will be difficult to do so even though I am on the side of truth?

Afam,
Do you have proofs for this accusation? It will be nice if you can offer more than unsubstantiated claims. This accusations are getting so repetitive and not in good taste. let's all try and grow up a little bit.
You want proof that some of you have been using multiple identities or proof that people that do so are not criminally minded?

You must be kidding me if the former is what you are referring to because the facts are there for all to see.
PoliticsRe: Us Intelligence Chief Retreats On Iran Claim by Afam(m): 4:10pm On Feb 07, 2008
Why would someone continue to use and switch identities online if the person is not criminally minded?

Makes it supremely difficult to discuss issues as you may end up wasting your time with fraudsters and scammers.

Good luck but this is repulsive.

More Information as some requested:::
The development of IT is leading all into having an online presence for either your company, organization, personal, etc. This trend was also integrated by our educational sector. All her activities went online as well and saved all the stress experienced offline. Now, having gone online, computer literate personnel are needed to make this their new system of operation work out. Computer literacy and Internet literacy especially now became a rubicon which most be crossed by anyone seeking or wanting to take part in their online activity. Here lies the whole thing. Since education is a national thing and not confined just to a particular state or location, there is the impossibility for them now to deploy staffs to take care of their online activities. They instead made it open that any Computer and Internet literate person could take charge of their online activity now creating a self employment for all interested. They make estimates and reveal the amount of expected returns for the year then encourage people to take the advantage and earn as much as they can (i.e. their own piece of the "National Cake".) What need I say next?
Do you know the meaning of scamming? Or even spamming?

So you are advising people who are already online to learn how to manage websites they did not build or what?

You posted this same misleading offer in at least 7 different sections of this forum and all the time luring people into sending you emails only for you to ask them to pay N3000.00 and you stated that you didn't want to sell anything on this portal?

Go and see my contribuion on power. it can be simpler than that.

We need 50,000M at 65MW per each local government ( of 774 local govt)at costs of $50billion costing each local goverment N82Billion naira or $65Million dollars.
Over and over again I have made it clear that your analysis or complete agreement with what you saw on inyang's site is fundamentally flawed but you have turned a deaf ear and have continued to quote this meaningless number.

Thank God that someone else has pointed out the same thing.

We often assume we have the right answers to every single problem but we forget that we must first try to understand the basics and honestly and objectively begin to make suggestions that are easy to implement.

Before one can get a handle on our energy requirement in Nigeria energy efficiency and energy conservation must be taken serious as it does not make sense to claim that I need 10MW of electricity due to the appliances I currently use now when the need could crash to say 3 or 4MW if I used energy efficient appliances which will be cheaper and easier to generate than the 10MW.
WebmastersMicrosoft Offers To Buy Yahoo For $44.6 Billion by Afam(op): 1:34pm On Feb 01, 2008

Microsoft offers to buy Yahoo for $44.6 billion

33 minutes ago

NEW YORK (Reuters) - Technology giant Microsoft Corp (MSFT.O) said on Friday that it had offered to acquire Internet media company Yahoo Inc (YHOO.O) for $44.6 billion in cash and stock.

Microsoft said it had offered to buy Yahoo for $31 per share, which it said represented a 62 percent premium above the company's closing stock price on Nasdaq on Thursday.

"We have great respect for Yahoo, and together we can offer an increasingly exciting set of solutions for consumers, publishers and advertisers while becoming better positioned to compete in the online services market," Microsoft Chief Executive Steve Ballmer said in a statement.

Yahoo was not immediately available for comment.

Microsoft said it had identified four areas that would generate at least $1 billion in annual synergies for the combined entity.

Yahoo shares rose 56 percent to $29.95 in premarket trading on Friday following the announcement. U.S. stock index futures also jumped after the news was released.

WebmastersIs Your Website Task Focused? by Afam(op): 7:49pm On Jan 31, 2008
Not many website owners have a clear understanding of why they even have websites in the first place going by the many purposeless websites out there today in Nigeria.

It seems that suddenly people are owning websites simply because their friends or business associates have websites.

It is actually a good thing that people are taking to owning websites either for business or for pleasure but again if a website does not serve any useful purpose why waste disk space, bandwidth and scarce domain names?

A website is supposed to help the owner achieve one or more things whether in the area of providing information about products and services, e-commerce or reducing support costs by implementing self service functionalities like knowledge base or frequently asked questions.

Either or all of these bring convenience to the customer or prospective customer and greater efficiency and cost savings to the website owner if done properly.

But these days you may end up spending up to 3 good minutes trying to figure out what a website is all about. If you are not being informed about the new website or the redesign you are being informed about how the business is the no 1 in the industry.

As a website owner you must realize that the customer or prospective customer is really not interested in your internal process or your company's achievements, save that for AGMs and take over talks.

People visit websites to find information be it news or product description, get bargain prices on goods and services, get support from service providers, read reviews of products they may be interested in buying.

If your website is not making it easy for anyone to do any of the tasks listed above then the blunt truth is that you are wasting your money and wasting the time of the website visitor.

So, take a look at your website and see if it is really helping anyone achieve a task and if it is not you should either get an expert to help get your website back on track or shut it down unless wasting money is no big deal for you.

As a website owner please inform your web developer that his/her job is to help put together a fully functional and effective website for your use not to showcase his/her many design skills that may have very little bearing in the website itself.

Often times, web designers and/or graphic designers rush to implement the latest design techniques or features even when these are to the detriment of their clients.

The only way you make money from this scam is to collect N3,000.00 from unsuspecting Nigerians just like any other scammer out there.

From the very first post you would have stated that your "information" cost N3,000.00 and not tricking people into sending emails before being sent to your website where you ask them to pay you money.

There are a lot of ways to make genuine money online, this strategy is fast becoming history.

I knew this was another information selling scam out there.

A simple email to the poster returned the following

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Dear XXXX,

Thanks for your mail. I am happy you responded in time so as to join the
winning team to keep raking in more funds, growing richer. This is not a
"get rich quick" scheme but it is based on your personal endeavour. One
promise I am making to you here is that you will never be disappointed and
will never regret being a part of this scheme.

Welcome to this Cash Flow System. It is a system that provides an endless
stream of income starting from today you are discovering it till whenever
it ends. For me, as long as there is Internet connectivity and as long as
our educational sector is concerned and most importantly, as long as
Information and Communication Technology is concerned, revolution will
continue getting to become better and will never reverse her flow.

Our Ministry of Education unknowingly created this opportunity for anyone
interested to start raking in funds from her invention. I personally
recognized the opportunity and called it a Cash Flow System and turned the
idea into an Internet Gold Mining opportunity. So many people who have
learnt it are now making a lot of money from it. You too can do the same
as well. Seminars are being offered also on the subject and are held at
the rate of even N10,000. (Confer with Success Digest Extra (A forthnight
published newspaper from Success Attitude Development Centre of Dr. Sunny
Obazu-Ojeagbase)on their November 2007 edition of their newspaper).

What I am telling you here is a reality. In fact, once you can click on a
mouse, you are where you want to be. You simply turn from being an
Employee to an Employer in a matter of hours. IT IS A BIG TRUTH. I would
have just told you the whole thing in a matter of some seconds but if I
don't educate you properly on it then I am making a big mistake. It will
be like converting a possessed person and not telling him/her where or
what next to do from that point.

A tip of the iceberg here.

Have you wondered the amount of money schools make from their online
presence not to talk about examination bodies? Figure it out. I guess
online presence has created created this opportunity. What else do you
expect me so say here? I have opened the hidden secret now to you.

Lastly, this whole idea has been packaged in a manual comprehensive enough
to guide you start off and run this Cash Flow System. Check this website
for more details.

http://www.iconsystemplus.com/cfs2008

I hope you will enjoy what is in stock there. Don't be scared about if
this is real or not. You have a 30 DAYS GUARANTEE to run this Cash Flow
System and confirm if it is real. If you try it, practicing all that was
thought and you still did not make anything out of it, kindly inform me
and you will have your money back.

http://www.iconsystemplus.com/cfs2008

A promise I'm making is that you will never fail and this package will
never fail you. NEVER!!! I PROMISE YOU THIS.

Marcellinus Okeke
