Afrodoc2 you need to get involved with this, no?

Why do you need him to get involved in this? To be honest, I don’t see much to disagree with in Dayo’s post—especially regarding Henry’s mediocre performances at the CL.

Blue kpele. You just dey collect am wotowoto lol

semid4lyfe:
Bros, sorry about the spambot. I can only imagine the frustration that comes with posts being blocked and being wrongly banned. I'm certain S.e.u.n is doing his best in that regard so bare with him.

You're also right about the local share. It unshares a post when you refresh the page. S.e u n acknowledged the issue two pages back so I suspect thats also work-in-progress.

Stick around, the user experience go soon bam I promise you

Thanks, Semi… Hopefully it doesn’t take too long, sha. Unfortunately, for some of us—myself included—NL is the only social media platform we actively use. At this rate, I might have to give it up and just stick to reading posts occasionally.

Anyway… Ká ṣá máa wò.

Post like a saint you chop ban. Cough ban. Sneeze ban. Piss ban. Kaka ban. Na wetin happen?!!!!!


Fix it abeg!

semid4lyfe:
As per the spambot, na that one I no know. Moderation no be black and white. It requires human nuance, interpretation, comprehension and understanding, something I don"t think an AI bot is capable of........but make we see as e go be.

While he’s focused on attracting Gen Z users or increasing the number of active users on the platform, he shouldn’t forget that retaining the existing community is just as—if not more—important. Addressing the nuisance caused by the current spambot is one way to do that. We’ve been raising this issue for over a month now with no noticeable improvement. Slowly but surely, people will start to lose interest. Unless, of course, the goal is to drive away long-time members—in which case, the new spambot seems to be doing a pretty effective job.

By the way, the local share feature still isn’t functioning properly. I tried using it earlier, but nothing happened.

Ibime:
External traffic that will be banned by Spambot soon as they make an innocent post and immediately leave due to the poor user experience with Spambot?

It's obvious (as he has admitted) that Seun is not a regular user of Nairaland

What pictures or videos does Nairaland host that anyone will want to share externally? Nairaland is a text based site and simple copy of the URL is all that's needed if you want to copy a thread to a friend. Besides a key feature of Nairaland is anonymity which you lose by sharing posts

The owner of this site needs to open a burner account and use it regularly as a normal user ( not a mod) instead of abandoning it for Elon app. If he knew his user experience, I'm sure he will not make all these decisions we are seeing

Share externally ke, as if na video or picture

Bro!!! Omo… I’ve never seen anything like this before, o. Honestly, anything that doesn’t improve the user experience is dead on arrival. So far, all the changes I’ve seen are a big no. I’m still trying to figure out what the actual end goal is, sha.

PrinceEma:
He said his top guys

Show us your energy against pro 1 ranians.

Only a dull person will deny his own agenda.


We know onesidedness when we see one. Bros take it elsewhere

Chaiiii… emojis, kwa? You’re doing a fantastic job replacing the resident copy-and-paste merchant on here. Keep wailing—you’re really on a roll.

My guy, you’re too old to be acting like a small pikin. You goofed by using that chess post. Just admit it was a mistake—either because you don’t know enough about chess in the first place, or because you’re too dull to realise it even after being corrected.

And just in case your emotions are clouding your reasoning: I’m Nigerian. I’m neither from Iran nor Israel, and honestly, I couldn’t care less who won or lost the war—as long as it’s over and done with.

At this point, it’s hard to tell whether you’re being deliberately dense or just painfully slow. Either way, it’s not a good look.

PrinceEma:
Victory lap?

But you dont have this energy for the pro 1 ranians. Keep your onesided preaching to your self.

Your top men are taken out....and you think it equals to civillian infrastructure eliminated on the opposite end.

All I did was correct your post—I didn’t commit a crime, bros calm down.

My top guys are in my village and in Nigeria. Unless you can name even one of them who died in your war, kindly leave me out of your imaginary agenda. Or do I need to start posting in your local dialect before basic logic starts to register?

Like I already said, I corrected your misinterpretation of that chess post you were waving around like it’s some kind of victory badge. Since your memory seems to be short, here’s the post again:

johnjay4u:
Don't be deceived by media.
Iran was the bigger loser in this war.

If you play chess, you will understand better.
Israel lost pawns while Iran lost bishop, knights , pawns inclusive etc
Only queen and king were saved.

I explained that you completely misused it. In chess, unless the King is actually taken, the game ends in a stalemate—not a win. I also pointed out that pawns aren’t just filler pieces—they can become bishops, rooks, knights, even queens. That’s basic chess. You quoting that post to back your point just showed how little you actually understand the game—or nuance in general.

Not everything is black and white like the pieces on a chessboard. But you? You see the world in extremes, and it shows.

Please, don’t let your dull ness be the dEARTH of me.

Congratulations Larride! Happy Birthday to your daughter 🎂

PrinceEma:
He say na stalemate ...leave that fantasy land.

It doesnt matter what you wished....the per s1ans ..have been thought a lesson they will never forget.

Even their telegramm channel disagrees with you

Stop embarrassing yourself, my guy. Your agenda clearly won’t let you read and understand any post properly — including mine.

I basically told you that using that guy’s post to support your point doesn’t make any sense, especially since he was referencing a game of chess in his analogy.

I’m not interested in who won or lost the war. You’ve got your fellow pro-Iran folks to argue about that. What matters most to me is that the war has technically ended without further escalation.

If you want to keep doing a victory lap over the dead, that’s your cup of tea — not mine.

Emaprince:
This guy said it best...

It’s pretty clear you don’t really play or understand chess — otherwise, you wouldn’t be making such a misinformed claim about who won based on that post.

The post you quoted clearly shows it was a stalemate — meaning no winner and no loser.

And just to clarify, pawns are far from irrelevant; they’re just as important as bishops, rooks, and knights because they can be promoted — even to a queen.

Abeg, before you try to take over from our in-house copy-and-paste expert, Olodo-in-Chief liveLongNprospa, try verifying what you’re sharing first. No need to set yourself up like that.

By the way, feel free to continue with your agenda.

GloriousGbola:
i would say it is important that distinction is made because the mob is already trying to politicize the issue

peter obis brothers business in lagos was demolished is different from
mr x business was demolished in lagos

allegedly politically motivated action vs random lagos leasehold fkery

💯

GloriousGbola:
the story has plenty of kleg

he did not name the company
he did not show picture of the facility before
no video or picture of when the demolition was happening

he says it is his youngest brother but from a google search he has two siblings Reverend Fr. Fabian Obi and Reverend Sister Martina Obi.

the reverend is his older brother



and this has absolutely nothing to do with LASG so for all we know if a demolition actually occurred - it may be his fellow businessman behind it

To be fair, in Nigeria, the term ‘youngest brother’ can refer to a younger cousin, relative, or even someone who isn’t a family member — maybe he even has an unofficially adopted brother lol. But your point still makes sense sha.

A documentary about a war that hasn’t even properly ended—barely 48 hours into the ceasefire—and it’s already out? Now that’s hilarious! 😂😂😂

Unlimited22:
I'm seeing (albeit unconfirmed as yet) reports that tankers are already refusing to sail thorough the Strait of Hormuz

Oil and gas prices, fuel prices... What happens?

There’s no confirmed report yet — but if it does happen, the fallout will hit us all. Yes, even the warmongers clapping from the safety of their screens.

And since we’re here, let’s not forget one of the many side effects of these endless wars — a point even Ibime has vaguely alluded to. Beyond a handful of Western nations, much of the West is already grappling with the aftermath. Maybe Ibime can update us on the small boats crisis currently gripping his own country — or explain how the average white Brit/Brit feels about Middle Eastern refugees who, even after years of resettlement, still reject British values. I’d imagine that if the conflict continues, even more refugees will be heading for the West in the near future. Just one of the many “benefits” of these endless wars.

Ibime:
Well, its not every dog you bring into the house, some are meant for outside. Merkel has done her best in good faith. Her legacy is lifting hundreds of millions of Eastern Europeans and East Germans out of the poverty Russia left them in, but she also allowed her good faith to build Russia up again economically, and her World War 2 guilt to allow a million Iraqi and Syrian migrants into Germany many of whom have different values. But all in all, she fought a good fight.

izzou:
[color=royalblue] I'm a Christian, and by default, I have a soft spot for Israel in this conflict.

But sacrificing people's lives without end of stupid. Iran shouldn't have nukes, but I don't mind 1,000 or 5,000 of my people dying.

As it is now, there is no end to this bombings in sight. I wonder how many Israelis would be killed and displaced in the next 3 months.

Let's enjoy the ride. Fordow has been demolished.[/color]

Omo… I’ve come to realise that even the self-proclaimed pacifists on this forum are only pacifists when they’re not the ones expected to get their hands dirty. And let’s be honest — 90% of those cheering this war on here have likely never experienced real violence or witnessed it unfold around them. If they had, the kind of joy I’ve seen on both sides while celebrating this conflict wouldn’t be so loud.

While they continue applauding the next chapter of destruction, here’s a grim reminder: in today’s warped calculus, even being a STEM graduate working as a scientist can make you a legitimate target. You and your family can be murdered in your sleep and labelled terrorists or sympathisers — simply for doing your job. You’re no longer seen as a person. Just another statistic. Easily erased.

Here’s a snapshot of what “strategy” has brought us in the past:

Afghanistan (2001–2021)
• Estimated civilian deaths:
- 170,000–243,000+ from direct war-related violence
- Millions more displaced, starved, or left without healthcare
• Deaths caused by Taliban, US/UK/NATO forces, and drone strikes

Iraq (2003–2011, extended US ops through 2021)
• Estimated civilian deaths:
- 200,000–300,000+ from direct violence
- Up to 1 million including indirect causes (infrastructure collapse, disease, displacement)
• Peak violence: sectarian conflict (2006–2008), ISIS insurgency (2014–2017).

And yet, the same politicians and NL pundits keep pushing the same tired lines — “stand with this side,” “You hate Isreal if you don’t support the war,” “Iran having nukes will be the end of Isreal.” But history has shown us exactly where that road leads: Afghanistan. Iraq. Libya. Syria. Same blueprint. Same devastation. Still no lessons learned.

Las las… this isn’t my war. I have no ancestral ties, no political stake, and no interest in fuelling the noise. Neither do most of those shouting the loudest. But if there’s one thing that remains clear, it’s this: both sides bear responsibility. Both have blood on their hands. Both are keeping the cycle alive.

izzou:
[color=royalblue]Well, good news.

There would be World peace and Israel can now live in sweet, perfect, peace, after what Trump did this morning

3 months down the line, we would see what has come out of this.[/color]

History doesn’t lie. We’ve seen this all before — the invasions, the regime changes, the civilian casualties. None of it ever brought lasting peace. If anything, it fuelled deeper instability across the Middle East. But sure — rinse, repeat, and call it strategy.

Since the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq — and with continued conflicts elsewhere in the region — the world has witnessed the ripple effects: mass displacement, waves of refugees arriving in the West, and the spread of extremist groups into new regions like Africa. These aren’t distant consequences anymore. They’re global. And they’re growing.

By the way, be warned — if you don’t loudly pledge allegiance, you’ll be branded a coward before you’ve even finished your next post. In today’s warped logic, neutrality is betrayal. Refuse to cheerlead the bloodshed? You’re suddenly pro-Iran. Question the narrative? Clearly, you’re sympathising with terrorists. There’s no room for nuance — just blind loyalty and louder shouting matches.

BlueMann:
Andrey Santos has a grand total of zero minutes from two games. Even Essugo got a few minutes the last game but Santos can't get none?

Look how quick flamengo were moving the ball, compared to our slow and mostly predictable passes. Smh.

Is a very poor coach!

Nothing wey anybody fit tell me.

James was played in midfield today, especially when we have actual midfielders begging for game time.

Yeye coach! It’s not like he even plans to win the competition with his unimaginative, boring style of play.

Ibime:
It's OK. Continue your "peace" protest

Thanks! Continue your warmongering party.

No make any sense.


By the way, now that the U.S. is about to step into the fray and the UK might follow, I hope you’ll be enlisting when the time comes — not just hyping the war while expecting other people’s children to die in a fight you wouldn’t join yourself

40 nonsense

Ibime:
What's a tired talking point about a country masterminding indiscriminate murder of 1,400 of your citizens, blockading your ports on the red sea and firing rockets and missiles into you daily from your North, South and Eastern border.

Or you think everywhere has been calm just because Iron dome has been shooting them down?

It's best you just keep it moving than raising vacuous talking points while holding up peace placard.

My guy, I no know who pour sand for your garri wey dey make you dey whine for my mentions like person wey just start their period.

All that your shalaye na for your pocket. You’re not Bibi, and you’re definitely not Israel’s spokesperson. The official reason for this war is that Iran is supposedly two weeks away from getting nukes. Everything else na extras.

Abeg, respect yourself.

liveLongNprospa:
Lol
Having a bias is not a bad thing.
Being a coward who can't embrace their bias is actually sad.
It's okay to be pro-iran.
Just don't hide behind being "neutral".

Nobody will beat you

Since you’re such a mind reader and you’ve clearly caught me out, why not take your time to articulate it — without sounding like you borrowed the brain of a tadpole?

Ibeme:
He posts like someone who don't know what's been going on, just tapping into the universally agreed principle that "we all want peace" without knowing wetin dey ground.

What else is really going on, aside from innocent people dying on both sides and politicians doing what they always do?

Is there something you actually want to say to me — or are you just repeating the same tired talking points from people who believe this war was somehow inevitable from the start?
