GodMode: N this is y I am so pissed. I have a problem with this mentality. Its like everyone wants to go to heaven, but nobody wants to die. We all complain dat Nigeria is not doing good n we have a chance to be good, but no we will rather be satisfied with what we have. Nairaland is not google, not yahoo n doesnt plan to, dat is complete bullshit. After all we been thru. After how people treat us badly around da world n we have a chance 2 shine n prove people wrong, but u would rather settle. Everywhere we go people look down on us, n now it is our turn to change dat, but u wouldnt. Look what could happen if NL was more ambitious? Do u know how many people we can feed? How many Boko Haram terrorists we can stop? How many corrupt politicians we can expose? We can change the world n make Nigeria or Africa da giant dat it really is. If NL was ambitious, we could hire more unemployed people. 2 Likes |

GodMode: Definitely true.but Im not telling NL to downgrade, Im telling NL to upgrade. Like NL allowed Whatsapp n 2go to come into their country n rule them easily. Look at how LINE, WeChat n others are dominating the Asian market but couldnt dominate American n European markets? Look how Google n Facebook dominate American n European markets but couldnt dominate Asian markets. They could only do it 2 Nigerians n as long we may boring, dull n not creative, they'll always will. |

Nature129: Even the mere fact dat something as simple as a blog can b ranked at da top sites in Nigeria means dat we lack creativity. Like name another country (superpower or has the potential 2 b a superpower) whereby blogs are their top sites? |
Webmasters / Re: Do You Think Nairaland Will Still Be Nigeria's No 1 Forum In 10 Years? by davidsmith8900: 9:08pm On Apr 28, 2015 |
Godmother: Dat I agree with but lets not 4get dat NL celebrated its 10th bday in March but doesnt even have up to 2 million registered members, while Facebook has 11 million Nigerian users. Like y cant NL upgrade itself from a forum 2 something else? 2 something better? NL shound have messenger service by now. It should have a great search engine, but it doesnt bcuz we lack creativity. 2 Likes |

GodMode: Konga n Jumia get about 1 - 1.5 million day users. NL gets about 1.2 - 1.3 million. Konga n Jumia are just knockoffs of Amazon n Ebay. No creativity really. Just a different market. How many Nigerians can afford things on Konga or Jumia? |

GodMode: South Africa, Egypt, Algeria might have good internet penetration rate but dats only because these countries have a lower number of population n have more non-black people investing into their economy. Dats like saying I have 10 kids n my friend has 3 kids. If 5 out of my 10 kids pass WAEC, compared to 2 out of my friends 3 kids, does dat mean dat his kids are smarter than mine? Dats a 50% to 66% difference. |

GodMode: So then what will be the product or idea? How will it make those who go to Nairaland daily, 2 now come 2 their site? How will it make da other 80 million internet users come 2 their site. A creative idea is a must. |

ramdris: Number 1 in African forums. But lets be honest which other African country has internet penetration rate like Nigeria? Nigeria has more numbers, we just need more creativity. |
Webmasters / Re: Do You Think Nairaland Will Still Be Nigeria's No 1 Forum In 10 Years? by davidsmith8900: 8:37pm On Apr 28, 2015 |
GodMode: Yeah Nairaland just need 2 step up their game, make updates n be more innovative. It has potential, but it is not using it. |
Webmasters / Re: Do You Think Nairaland Will Still Be Nigeria's No 1 Forum In 10 Years? by davidsmith8900: 8:35pm On Apr 28, 2015 |
GodMode: Im not downgrading Nigerian programmers n 4 da record, those are the ways in which I make my money too. Im just saying dat we need 2 be more creative. Do u know how many countless threads Ive seen posted where people ask each other on Nairaland 4 ideas n its like everybody usually has the same top 3 ideas? Nairaland doesnt have competiton from creative programmers dats y it remains at the top. Its like a big fish in a small pond. |

GodMode: The only thing keeping Nairaland at the top is the same thing dat will cause their downfall, which is LACK OF CREATIVITY. If there were more creative developers in Nigeria with betta ideas, Nairaland wouldn't have last this long. Alot of us are not creative, we just follow others n dat is sad. Look at music...When did Nigerians start cursing each other in music?... Look at fashion, when did it become cool 2 sag?... Look at languages, when did we start calling our sisters hoes n bitches? Back then we had tribal marks 2 identify clans but now we have tattoos just 2 look cool. 1 Like |

denzmark: If they continue like this, then no....What ppl dont understand is dat not many Nigerians use da internet daily. Nairaland has da first mover advantage but needs innovation to remain at da top. Out of 82 million internet users in Nigeria, Google Nigeria only gets 5.2 million daily, while Nairaland only gets 1.3 million daily. Even Konga, Jumia n Linda Ikeji get about 1 - 1.5 million daily each. If someone comes with a betta forum, not a copycat or knockoff dat targets d other 80 million, Nairaland will be ghost like MySpace n Hi5. 1 Like |
