wtech: Lagtech is creating a hard life for him and his generation , before he realises that it will be too late. And chaloner don't comment again , seem as if dragnet have ban the guy again because. The guy is bomb and gets infos ..... And I can remember that dragnet have not clear his name of the accusation of getting a laptop aas a bribe from lagtech but have the strength and will to ban the guy then. I believe that OP is not helping us here. Seun can you hear our voice and change dragnet if he can't associate with us and plan on how to end this mess.... In auto section the op there is always at d front and before you know the issue will be over but here we have someone who don't care , someone who think we are doing business on our own risk , someone who always remind us to read terms and conditions of nairaland : SMH Yes chaloner and those who choose to spread the false information of any item being given to the moderator have been banned for posting false information on nairaland, and also for disrespecting the moderator. The onus of proving and substantiating the allegation lies with the accuser. I guess if Seun refuses to respond and locks this thread, soon he may be accused of getting servers from the Op too?. My attention was drawn to this thread due to the abusive posts and the likes, I warned those concerned, some heeded but others did not and I had to enforce the rules, that's when I was tagged "lagtech's alternate id and also received a bribe". The way some people have handled/are handling the ongoing issue is really disappointing and if it goes on this way, they may not accomplish much. Similar thing happened with linkto's issue and people kept making noise and did virtually nothing, now someone wants to create a thread about the arrest of linkto of which he doesn't know how it played out... I'm more of a silent worker and I'm not the type that pat people on the head and I guess that's why majority of you feel offended, I like being realistic without unnecessary emotions and taking issues like this straight between the eyes more work less talk. |

Ahmed4002: but if I can understand much well. Most of the monikers doing shipping and procurement do pay their Tithe and even pay for naira land ads which at times you come across the link through the fp and that's how I get to know about the thread.
dragnet the best thing is for you to monitor such thread that at least reach about 10 pages.
First ask the op to provide CAC, real identity. then it would be safer.
I understand the rules clearly. before majority of those posting here started transacting with lagtech, verification was made. In fact I initially banned lagtech from the forum etc and the talk of 'not feeling people's pain' is wrong. No matter what has transpired, protocol would not be cast to the winds, and I've said this earlier, if you're losing money then there's hope but when you're losing money and losing your head, that's catastrophic! |

Happy new year. If you could tell lies and make the above baseless and unfounded accusations, then there's a question mark on your integrity. I have various options to respond to your accusation, I could put a spiritual tag on the statement you made that 'if what you accused me of is false, then from this day onwards and till xx years (xx being the number of views the accusation has got and will be getting) everything you lay your hands on will be a waste, that no matter how hard you work, you will never achieve the desired results.' I could just try to show you who I really am by share the post to those who are here on nairaland and really know who I am offline and you end up knowing how ridiculous your claim is. Them you will know your money you think you have can be regarded as 'change'. I don't take false accusations lightly but you know what? like I've been saying prior to this, you've proven to be a joker times without number, so I'll just laugh it off !  |

My business here is simple, nairaland has it's rules as seen in the attached screenshot and it's either you follow them or you face the consequence and this is irrespective of emotional attachments though consideration 'may' be given. The fact that you transacted here does not necessarily mean nairaland is responsible for whatever your transactions entail, would those that have been scammed through mails sue gmail or yahoomail for their failed transactions? would you hold MTN responsible for the fake distress call you received to send recharge cards to a scammer? If you can not post here in a civil manner and within the rules then send messages to yourselves via mails with whatever derogatory languages you wish and I believe Lagtech has a website, use it as you please but if you must use nairaland, do so within the stated regulations but if you break the rules,

Islam › Refuting The Arguments Of Those Who Celebrate The Mawlid By Sheik Salih Fawzan by dragnet(op): 9:09am On Jan 05, 2015 |
Those who think that this bid’ah should be continued produce specious arguments which are flimsier than a spider’s web. These specious arguments may be dealt with as follows:
[First Doubt] – Their claim that this is veneration of the Prophet (salallaahu ‘alaihi wa sallam):
[Refutation] – The response to that is that the way to venerate him is to obey him, do as he commanded and avoid that which he forbade, and to love him; he is not to be venerated through innovations, myths and sins. Celebrating his birthday is of this blameworthy type because it is a sin. The people who venerated the Prophet (salallaahu ‘alaihi wa sallam) the most were the Sahaabah (radiallaahu ‘anhum), as ‘Urwah ibn Mas’ood said to Quraysh: “O people, by Allaah I have visited kings. I went to Caesar, Chosroes and the Negus, but by Allaah I never saw a king whose companions venerated him as much as the companions of Muhammad venerated Muhammad (salallaahu ‘alaihi wa sallam). By Allaah, whenever he spat, it never fell on the ground, it fell into the hand of one his companions, then they wiped their faces and skins with it. If he instructed them to do something, they would hasten to do as he commanded. When he did wudoo, they would almost fight over his water. When he spoke, they would lower their voices in his presence; and they did not stare at him out of respect for him.” (al-Bukhaari, 3/178, no. 2731, 2732; al-Fath, 5/388). Yet despite this level of veneration, they never took the day of his birth as an ‘Eid (festival). If that had been prescribed in Islam, they would not have neglected to do that.
[Second Doubt] – Using as evidence the fact that many people in many countries do this.
[Refutation] - The response to that is that evidence consists of that which is proven from the Prophet (salallaahu ‘alaihi wa sallam), and what is proven from the Prophet is that innovations are forbidden in general, and this is an innovation. What people do, if it goes against the evidence (daleel), does not prove anything, even if many of them do it. “And if you obey most of those on the earth, they will mislead you far away from Allaah’s path.” [al-An’aam, ayah 116 – interpretation of the meaning] Nevertheless, in every age, praise be to Allaah, there have always been those who denounce this bid’ah and state clearly that it is false. Those who persist in following it after the truth had been explained to them have no proof. Among those who denounced the celebration of this occasion was Shaykh al-Islam Ibn Taymiyah, in Iqtidaa’ al-Siraat al-Mustaqeem; Imaam al-Shaatibi in al-‘I’tisaam; Ibn al-Haaj in al-Madkhil; Shaykh Taaj al-Deen ‘Ali ibn ‘Umar al-Lakhami who wrote an entire book denouncing it; Shaykh Muhammad Basheer al-Sahsawaani al-Hindi in his book Siyaanah al-Insaan; al-Sayyid Muhammad Rasheed Ridaa wrote a separate essay on this topic; Shaykh Muhammad ibn Ibraaheem Aal al-Shaykh wrote a separate essay on it; Shaykh ‘Abd al-‘Azeez ibn Baaz; and others who are still writing and denouncing this bid’ah every year in the pages of newspapers and magazines, at the time when this bid’ah is being done.
[Third Doubt] – They say that by celebrating the Mawlid they are keeping the memory of the Prophet (salallaahu ‘alaihi wa sallam) alive.
[Refutation] - The answer to that is that the memory of the Prophet (salallaahu ‘alaihi wa sallam) is constantly kept alive by the Muslim, such as when his name (salallaahu ‘alaihi wa sallam) is mentioned in the adhaan and iqaamah and in khutbahs, and every time the Muslim recites the Shahaadatayn after doing wudoo and in the prayers, and every time he sends blessings upon the Prophet (salallaahu ‘alaihi wa sallam) in his prayers and when he is mentioned, and every time the Muslim does a waajib (obligatory) or mustahabb (recommended) action that was prescribed by the Messenger (salallaahu ‘alaihi wa sallam). In all of these ways (the Muslim) remembers him and the reward equivalent to the reward of the one who does that action goes back to the Prophet (salallaahu ‘alaihi wa sallam). Thus the Muslim constantly keeps the memory of the Messenger alive and has a connection with him night and day throughout his life through that which Allaah has prescribed, not only on the day of the Mawlid and things which are bid’ah and go against the Sunnah, for that puts one at a distance from the Messenger (salallaahu ‘alaihi wa sallam) and the Messenger will disown him because of that. The Messenger (salallaahu ‘alaihi wa sallam) has no need of this innovated celebration, because Allaah has already bestowed veneration and respect upon him, as He says: “and raised high your fame.” [al-Sharh, ayah 4] For Allaah is not mentioned in the adhaan, iqaamah or khutbah, except that the Messenger (salallaahu ‘alaihi wa sallam) is mentioned after Him; this is sufficient veneration, love and renewal of his memory, and sufficient encouragement to follow him. Allaah did not refer to the birth of the Messenger (salallaahu ‘alaihi wa sallam) in the Qur`aan, rather He referred to his Mission, and says (interpretation of the meaning): “Indeed, Allaah conferred a great favour on the believers when He sent among them a Messenger (Muhammad) from among themselves.” [Aal ‘Imraan, ayah 124] “He it is Who sent among the unlettered ones a Messenger (Muhammad) from among themselves.” [al-Jumu’ah, ayah 2]
[Fourth Doubt] – They may say that the celebration of the Prophet’s birthday was introduced by a knowledgeable and just king who intended thereby to draw closer to Allaah.
[Refutation] - Our response to that is that bid’ah is not acceptable, no matter who does it. A good intention does not justify a bad deed and even if a person died as a knowledgeable and righteous person, this does not mean that he was infallible.
[Fifth Doubt] – They say that celebrating the mawlid comes under the heading of bid’ah hasanah (“good innovation”) because it is based on giving thanks to Allaah for the Prophet! [Refutation] - Our response to that is that there is nothing good in innovation. The Prophet (salallaahu ‘alaihi wa sallam) said: “Whoever innovates anything in this matter of ours (i.e., Islam) that is not part of it will have it rejected.” (Narrated by al-Bukhaari, no. 2697; al-Fath, 5/355). And he said, “Every innovation is a going astray.” (Narrated by Ahmad, 4/126; al-Tirmidhi, no. 2676). The ruling on innovations is that they are all misguidance, but this specious argument suggests that not every bid’ah is a going astray, rather there are “good” innovations. Al-Haafiz ibn Rajab said in Sharh al-Arba’een: “The words of the Prophet (salallaahu ‘alaihi wa sallam), ‘every innovation is a going astray‘ is a concise but comprehensive comment which includes everything; it is one of the most important principles of religion. It is like his words ‘Whoever innovates anything in this matter of ours (i.e., Islam) that is not part of it will have it rejected.‘ (Narrated by al-Bukhaari, 3/167, no. 2697; al-Fat-H, 5/355). Whoever innovates anything and attributes it to Islam when it has no basis in the religion, this is a going astray and has nothing to do with Islam, whether that has to do with matters of belief (‘aqeedah) or outward and inward words and deeds.” (Jaami’ al-‘Uloom wa’l-Hakam, p. 233) These people have no proof that there is any such thing as a “good innovation” apart from the words of ‘Umar (radiallaahu ‘anhu) concerning Taraaweeh prayers, “What a good innovation this is.” (Saheeh al-Bukhaari, 2/252, no. 2010 mu’allaqan; al-Fath 4/294). They also said that things were innovated which were not denounced by the Salaf, such as compiling the Qur`aan into one volume and writing and compiling the hadeeth. The response to that is that these matters had a basis in Islam, so they were not newly-invented. ‘Umar said: “What a good bid’ah” meaning innovation in the linguistic sense, not in the shar’ee sense. Whatever has a basis in Islam, if it is described as an innovation, is an innovation in the linguistic sense, not in the shar’eei sense, because innovation in the shar’ee sense means that which has no basis in Islam. Compiling the Qur`aan into one book has a basis in Islam, because the Prophet (salallaahu ‘alaihi wa sallam) had commanded that the Qur`aan be written down, but it was scattered, so the Sahaabah compiled it in one volume so as so protect and preserve it. The Prophet (salallaahu ‘alaihi wa sallam) led his companions in praying Taraaweeh for a while, then he stopped doing that, lest that become obligatory on them. The Sahaabah (radiallaahu ‘anhum) continued to pray it separately during the life of the Prophet (salallaahu ‘alaihi wa sallam) and after his death, until ‘Umar ibn al-Khattaab (radiallaahu ‘anhu) gathered them behind one imaam as they used to pray behind the Prophet (salallaahu ‘alaihi wa sallam). This was not an innovation introduced into the religion. Writing down the hadeeth also has a basis in Islam. The Prophet (salallaahu ‘alaihi wa sallam) ordered that some ahaadeeth should be written down for some of his companions when they asked him for that. In general terms writing it down during his lifetime was not allowed, for fear that the Qur`aan might be mixed with things that were not part of it. When the Prophet (salallaahu ‘alaihi wa sallam) died, this fear was no longer a factor, because the Qur`aan had been completed and arranged in order before he died. The Muslims compiled the Sunnah after that in order to preserve it and keep it from being lost. May Allaah reward them with good on behalf of Islam and the Muslims, because they preserved the Book of their Lord and the Sunnah of their Prophet (salallaahu ‘alaihi wa sallam) from being lost or being tampered with. We may also say to them: why was this act of “thanksgiving,” as they call it, not done by the best generations, the Sahaabah, Taabi’een and followers of the Taabi’een, who loved the Prophet (salallaahu ‘alaihi wa sallam) most and who were most keen to do good and give thanks? Are those who introduced the innovation of the Mawlid more rightly-guided than them? Do they give more thanks to Allaah? Definitely not!
[Sixth Doubt] – They may say that celebrating the birthday of the Prophet (salallaahu ‘alaihi wa sallam) is indicative of their love for him; this is one way of showing that, and showing love of the Prophet (salallaahu ‘alaihi wa sallam) is prescribed in Islam! [Refutation] - The answer to that is that undoubtedly loving the Prophet (salallaahu ‘alaihi wa sallam) is obligatory for every Muslim; he should love him more than he loves himself, his child, his father and all the people – may my father and mother be sacrificed for him – but that does not mean that we should introduce innovations, for doing so has not been prescribed for us. Loving him dictates that we should obey him and follow him, for that is one of the greatest manifestations of love, as it is said: “If your love is sincere then obey him; for the lover obeys the one whom he loves.” Loving the Prophet (salallaahu ‘alaihi wa sallam) implies keeping his Sunnah alive, adhering firmly to it, and avoiding words and deeds that go against it. Undoubtedly everything that goes against his Sunnah is a reprehensible innovation (bid’ah) and a manifest act of disobedience. That includes celebrating his birthday and other kinds of bid’ah. A good intention does not mean that it is permissible to introduce innovations into the religion. Islam is based on two things, purity of intention and following [the Prophet (salallaahu ‘alaihi wa sallam)]. Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning): “Yes, but whoever submits his face (himself) to Allaah (i.e. follows Allaah’s religion of Islamic Monotheism) and he is a Muhsin (a doer of good) then his reward is with his Lord (Allaah), on such shall be no fear, nor shall they grieve.” [al-Baqarah, ayah 112] Submitting one’s face to Allaah means being sincere towards Allaah, and doing good means following the Messenger and implementing the Sunnah.
[Seventh Doubt] – Another of their specious arguments is when they say that by celebrating the Mawlid and reading the biography of the Prophet (salallaahu ‘alaihi wa sallam) on this occasion, they are encouraging people to follow his example!
[Refutation] - We say to them that reading the biography of the Prophet (salallaahu ‘alaihi wa sallam) and following his example are required of the Muslim all the time, all year long and throughout his life. Singling out a specific day for that with no evidence for doing so is an innovation, and “every innovation is a going astray.” (Narrated by Ahmad, 4/164; al-Tirmidhi, 2676). Bid’ah does not bear any fruit but evil, and it leads to a person distancing himself from the Prophet (salallaahu ‘alaihi wa sallam). In conclusion, celebrating the birthday of the Prophet (salallaahu ‘alaihi wa sallam), whatever form it takes, is a reprehensible innovation. The Muslims should put a stop to this and other kinds of bid’ah, and occupy themselves with reviving and adhering to the Sunnah. They should not be deceived by those who promote and defend this bid’ah, for these types of people are more interested in keeping innovations alive than in reviving the Sunnah; they may not even care about the Sunnah at all. Whoever is like this, it is not permissible to imitate him or follow his example, even if the majority of people are like this. Rather we should follow the example of those who follow the path of the Sunnah, among the righteous Salaf and their followers, even if they are few. Truth is not measured by the men who speak it, rather men are measured by the truth. The Prophet (salallaahu ‘alaihi wa sallam) said: “Whoever among you lives (for a long time) will see many differences. Upon you is to follow my Sunnah and the sunnah of the rightly-guided khaleefahs who come after me. Hold on to it firmly. Beware of newly-invented matters, for every innovation is a going astray.” (Narrated by Ahmad, 4/126; al-Tirmidhi no. 2676). So the Prophet (salallaahu ‘alaihi wa sallam) explained to us in this hadeeth what we should do when there are differences of opinion, just as he explained that everything that goes against his Sunnah – be it words or deeds – is a bid’ah, and every bid’ah is a going astray. If we see that there is no basis for celebrating the birthday of the Prophet, whether in the Sunnah of the Messenger of Allaah (salallaahu ‘alaihi wa sallam) or in the way of the rightly-guided khaleefahs, then it is one of the newly-invented matters, one of the bid’ahs which lead people astray. This principle is what is implied by this hadeeth and is what is indicated by the aayah (interpretation of the meaning): “O you who believe! Obey Allaah and obey the Messenger (Muhammad), and those of you (Muslims) who are in authority. (And) if you differ in anything amongst yourselves, refer it to Allaah and His Messenger, if you believe in Allaah and in the Last Day. That is better and more suitable for final determination.” [al-Nisaa`, ayah 59] Referring to Allaah means referring to His Book, and referring to the Messenger (salallaahu ‘alaihi wa sallam) means referring to his Sunnah after he has passed away. The Qur`aan and Sunnah are the reference point in cases of dispute. Where in the Qur`aan or Sunnah does it indicate that it is prescribed in Islam to celebrate the Prophet’s birthday? Whoever does that or thinks that it is good must repent to Allaah from this and from other kinds of bid’ah. This is the attitude of the Muslim who is seeking the truth. But whoever is too stubborn and arrogant after proof has been established, then his reckoning will be with his Lord. We ask Allaah to help us adhere to His Book and the Sunnah of His Messenger (salallaahu ‘alaihi wa sallam) until the Day when we will meet Him. May Allaah grant blessings and peace to our Prophet Muhammad and his family and companions.

lagtech: Today is December 31st 2014. We thank all those who have patronized our business. We delivered over 2000 items to more than 150 people. We handled over N5 million worth of payments and delivered all items to their owners between April and November. We apologize to all those who have been affected by the multiple challenges that we have faced. We appreciate and thank all our customers who have not lost faith in us and have handled whatever delays they experienced with patience. Your goodwill and patience during this time will not be forgotten. Your comments, your messages, your prayers are valued more than you know. The Pharaoh that did not remember Joseph will not arise.
The last few months have been tough-but we are slowly, but surely resolving them. This month we have made refunds of over 300,000 naira to several nairalanders-many in full-some in part including to @adiniji, @labeke, @samalex2000, and many others and they can testify to this. We will still make refunds today and hope to complete all refunds within the next 2 weeks.
Several people picked up their items last week.
We expect about 8 people to pick up items today as well.
By the end of today-if the pick up holds as scheduled-there will be about 12 people left with items uncollected from air cargo(some of these people have also picked up items previously) and 6 people from sea shipping. All these items will be picked up anytime from Saturday.
The problems we have had are not insurmountable, nor limitless. They are problems and every problem has a solution.
We have nor had any intention to make anyone suffer due to delays in getting their items. We have also learnt our lessons in handling logistics and shipping-and these events cannot be repeated.
Peace and Joy to all men of Goodwill!!
Happy 2015 to everyone!!! I believe you owe the "sea shippers" a lot of explanation, its best you mail them and give them detailed info about what's causing the delay, though you may think its not necessary, you can't tell who may help profer solutions to whatever is causing the delay, from what I've seen here most of them are reasonable and ay understand if due explanation is given but just keeping silent and being diplomatic won't help. |

felibrain: I like your courage but you sound more like dragnet is a police officer or as if Nairaland asked anyone to invest his life savings in this. Did you pay the mod for protection when you entered into the business? If you had made profit would dragnet get a bottle of beer from you? Why are you sounding as if it's his job to go and probe anybody? Did you read the disclaimer at the bottom of the forum? Meanwhile I have a feeling that Lagtech is not owing you a dime (at least you said so), hence it's safe if you stay calm instead of raising fears and making comments that may cause people to lose out at the end. Thank you. I hope someone won't come here shouting dragnet is felibrain too  |

felibrain: No harm was intended in my earlier comment. I'm a man of integrity (you can Google my username). I'm not new to Internet business so I only gave an advice please and I'm sorry if that made you feel bad.
100k is not a small money so I feel your pain. I trade forex too and most times we sing this as our anthem 'only invest what you can afford to lose' (even when we know no one is ready to lose a dime). Again I don't think you should be asking people to limit their post on this thread and focus on 'offline measures' This is Money we are talking about, it all started here and has to end here. Your 'offline measures' may not produce any results as you may expect. By God's grace i read law and I know what I'm saying. You probably have never seen the person you are accusing in person and even if you have evidence of payment (which anyone can design in 5 minutes) who are you presenting it to and who will listen to you? So you see? Or you want to go spiritual? Aside from God no other crap works on anybody and God will do nothing if the guy is innocent and even if he isn't God do allow plenty of time to pass before giving any judgements (because a sinner can repent you know!). Bottom line is, Lagtech has not said you won't get your money, no one here can substantiate the claims that Lagtech is a scam. Until this is done, best bet is to. Keep the thread lively and pray things get resolved in peace. God bless us all in 2015 and help us to invest wisely and profitably. You truly understand... |

magicfinger1: dragnet,let's not derail this, u have the power to effect a positive change here. I maybe rash or harsh but it is because of the pains of the victims which I feel too. Nobody can hold down my 1k for 2 weeks ooo not to talk of 100k. The victims here respect u ,try and use ur position to help them and if it turns out that it wasn't enough then they will know u did ur best. Let's sheath our swords and work for the common good of every genuine victim here. Truce? we're cool... I have no problem with anyone and believe me I understand how everyone feels but that doesn't mean we should go overboard. I've had a few dealings with the law so I know when to slow down and when to speed up. |

magicfinger1: ok thank u, I agree my views are myopic. Are u okay now? Just do ur job and protect the name and image of nairaland. I have the appetite to s[b]tomach all ur insults on me[/b] ,but performance ineptitude and responsibility negligence is what I can't tolerate,so just do the right thing here. Compel the op to give detailed reasons of why peoples goods and money have been held hanging for 4 to 5 months. Thanks once again for the veiled insult. what insults? please do away with all the vocabs and stop the assertions. stop reading unnecessary meanings to my posts, they're as simple as they can be and void of insults |

I may sound harsh, but my ideology is always to estimate the worst case scenario then decide on the way forward while still hoping for the best from the failed situation. |

I'm highly disappointed by the reaction of some people here, I wonder how they would sustain their various businesses. unfortunate events happen in business, delays, shortfalls, inflation and the likes, when these happen and you can't keep your head and think of the way forward and result to wailings and lamentations then there is a problem.
person wey dey cry dey see road... but if you cry and you no open eye, you'll just compound your situation |

dadah04: @dragnet....the bolded comment is unbecoming of a mod,u can make comments without any funny or mocking tone...respect yourself and reserve these unnecessary comments like the bolded...Do the respectful same goes for everyone, you should also help pass the message across to all those going abusive and insultive. I do not believe anybody is losing their money here yet, though depreciation may occur, but if people lose their money and lose their heads in the process, then there's a problem. |

magicfinger1: look dragnet ,let's not drag this iSsue too far,all I am telling u is to do ur job. your job as a mod here is to protect the image ,name and integrity of nairaland, And I don't see how ur handling of this matter so far has justified that. The second is to protect the legal right of law abiding members of this forum within the confines of nairaland rules and regulations. There is nothing special about moderating on nairaland.I can give u 3 to 4 different examples on nairaland where mods have done more than enough to help victims to the best of their ability. Go to tripleA case in the auto section and see how the mods there helped ,go to the webmaster and see how the mods there have been helping people sort out cases like these,go too travel section and see how justwise has cleared up the place. All u could have done is to get in touch with lagtech to explain to you what is going on ,and u can come here and tell ppl what is the matter,this is what other mods in other sections do.NONE OF THEM makes jest or fun of situations like this. No one is asking u to ban the op or limit his posting right,but if u as the mod of the medium he is using to transact business steps in I believe he would have been compelled to tell people here the true situation of things. I have nothing personal against u,but I think u should be more positively active here and u should be on the side of innocent victims who decided to business in a section u moderate. If you have done anything to help ,then I don't think it will bad if you tell them what u have done on their behalf. But coming here to issue threAts of banning victims is like gagging them and not wanting them to express their disappointment and sadness. your view is quite myopic. If you understand the law to an extent then you may understand some positions being taken. |

magicfinger1: The only reason people are scared to tell u the truth is because they don't want to be banned from posting not that they like everybody is free to comment as long as the rules aren't broken. |
