LogoDWhiz: I'm really happy with this kind of setup.

I have some issues with the setup tho.
It won't be nice if some selected few can make advice(s) on a particular situation, remember, we all have different life experiences and we judge based on that. So, giving this important responsibility to a selected few will limit how diverse the response(s) could have been.
I think I support Seun's opinion, let there be a general thread, post the link there, and if you have similar situation you can recommend the link and then the issue will be discussed and advice will be given.

I hope I made sense.

I also agree with the idea solely due to anonymity.
Peeps will be more free to say their issues.

But it will be nice if we can really verify the credibility of the to-be counsellors, cos it would be bad if they use informations made privy to them to judge users or used against them.

Excellent idea. What I'm proposing is that one of the requirements for counsellors to review a counselling request is if a general thread on the request had been created by the nairalander in question.

For instance, if a lady needs counselling concerning her cheating boyfriend, she'll need to create a separate thread for it and then post the links in the Counselling Thread. This way she can get advice from both the general public and from the counsellors.

In addition, I'm recommending that counsellors can choose to offer counselling services to some already existing thread even without a request from the OP. The counselling services will be done on the Counselling Thread.

For nairalanders who don't want to expose their identity or who don't want to create a general thread, they can be anonymous by sending their counselling request to a designated anonymous mail. Then counselling will be provided on the Counselling Thread without revealing his/her identity.

1one: No single guy or girl should be a counsellor.. And by single I mean Young, Hot, intelligent, good looking but still single and searching.. The reason is because you don't put a Goat as a sentry over a barn of yams.


And for those who are single but in relationships.. and are still being considered as counsellors, they must be in serious relationships with suffient proof that their relationship is stable and healthy... Their partners must also come and register on Nairaland if they are not already members.

These are my own suggestions for now.

Thanks for your suggestions. They've been noted. Most of our Counsellors will be married folks. Though there will be a few singles in the mix.

Ok folks.

Thanks for this wonderful discussion we've had this morning. I was very impressed with the civility and maturity displayed on this thread.

For the chief complainant, I understand your grouse and your perception of the supermod's bias. But I want you to know that it wasn't our intention. We didn't see the thread that brought about Oritsejiofor's rejoinder thus it was only the latter that made frontpage. I requested you show me the thread but you couldn't, probably because such thread wasn't created on this forum.

Please if we have subsequent issues concerning the homepage, let's direct it via the appropriate channel: mail supermods.

Thanks and enjoy the rest of the day.

Happy nairalanding .

1United1: Cohorts you said? Smh! Okay didn't you see the breaking news about the ownership of the jet? Did you lot not turn blind eyes to it?




https://www.nairaland.com/1904785/arms-smuggling-jet-caught-south

A similar thread graced the homepage: https://www.nairaland.com/1904170/two-nigerians-israeli-smuggle-9.3million

Again, we don't want duplicity of information.

1United1, I'm still waiting for the thread that led to the rejoinder (a thread where el Rufai and Lai accused Oritsejiofor). Is there any?

1United1: Are you a SuperMod?

MzJackBaueress: why are you putting your mouth in this matter? You are neither mynd44 nor Obinoscopy. You should learn to mind your business.

What he said actually made sense. Obliging your request will amount to duplicity of information as the rejoinder also admitted Oritsejiofor as the owner of the aircraft.

MzJackBaueress: yes I do! How's that the topic of discussion?

Thanks for owning up. I'll address this matter (your flouting Rule 19) later.

1United1: With due respect Sir, when has the bold become the criteria for pushing threads to the front page? If my memory serves me right, the thread, Enugu the pride of East amassed about 17 pages before it was brought to the front page!.

Methinks there is nothing wrong in bringing it to the front page for other interested forumites who are yet to know the owner of the jet have their view!

Thanks

I think it's late sending the thread to the homepage. The thread on the homepage said Oritsejofor owns the aircraft so I think it would amount to duplicity if I oblige your request.

However if there was a thread where el Rufai and his cohorts accused Oritsejiofor, whether directly or indirectly, of using the aircraft to purchase arms then let me see it. It might grace homepage.

MzJackBaueress: since you said you didn't see that thread,let it be known to you that from henceforth,I will start mentioning your name on threads I think deserves front page. You better be alert!

A PM to the mods/supermods would suffice.

jmaine: For breaking rule 19 . . . .

Really? She/He has an alternate moniker?

MzJackBaueress: I owe you no explanation neither am I ready to exchange words with you. Kindly push the thread mentioned by the Op to front page! You cannot ignore the thread and push the other one which is a continuity to front page. It is FRAUD!!



You can ban me if you want. I don't care!!

Why would I ban you?

1United1: Why has the thread about Oritsejafor admittance of owing the controversial jet used for smuggling arms yet to make front page:
https://www.nairaland.com/1906118/president-oritsejafor-admits-ownership-cash-stacked

But his speech attacking el Rufai swiftly made the front page?
https://www.nairaland.com/1906507/seized-aircraft-attacks-el-rufai

Seun: We are talking about National Security and it would fair, if all the information are made available for Nairalanders to read and be informed!

It seems is now a new trend on Nairaland for rejoinder to make front page while what led to the rejoinder remains on the obscure section!

This is very wrong!

Actually I'm just seeing that post (https://www.nairaland.com/1906118/president-oritsejafor-admits-ownership-cash-stacked).

However, I don't think it is obscured. It has amassed 6 pages and close to 4000 views.

As regards the bolded, you are right. What led to the rejoinder shld have made frontpage. But the thread you mentioned (https://www.nairaland.com/1906118/president-oritsejafor-admits-ownership-cash-stacked) wasn't what led to the rejoinder. It's el-Rufai/Lai Muhammed's sponsored thread that should have graced the homepage. I'm yet to see one.

MzJackBaueress: You keep spelling Obynoscopy wrongly. It is Obinoscopy! Mention it well and let him see the fraud they are doing to nairaland.

Fraud? Ma'am can you care to explain?

cirmuell: Actually I don't really know much about people over there, but I just feel there will be more serious people over there than here, judging by the types of threads & comments one come across here sometimes.

my nominee: chaircover

iconize: OrlandOowoh is a professional love counselor.

nikkypearl: Lalasty dear!was bou' typing yo name when I saw yo mention!

I would recommend

1 Tallesty
2.Temigrace
3.Mizmycoli(bet her mouth too sharp)




If any one suggest KRALL!then I give up



*Runs outa thread*

Missmossy: Nice initiative i nominate madam Chaircover lets see how it goes.

Noted.

krall: would one individual's problems be dealt with satisfactorily before everyone moves on to the next one, or each counsellor is assigned to each individual?.

Each individual will post their problems/concerns and each counsellor will deal with each of them one by one.

krall: can it be done? Guests being able to comment on only that thread? I think it would cause problems.

How?

cirmuell: Nice idea bro, wish I know who to nominate though.

p.s you can only get those you seek in family section, don't even try 'romance'.

So who are ur nominees from the family section?

MizMyColi:
Why the mention.....
please don't ban me, I wasn't trolling

No, you weren't.

krall: i want to be a counsellor. i am proficient in human psychology & guidance counselling.

CORTANA: DickDastrdly is an honourable and honest married man.
He is a responsible family man too.
I nominate DICKDASTARDLY as the Councillor!

MizMyColi: For Married Folks
I recommend Cococandy and Pickabeau1

lalasticlala: obinoscopy this would b nice. Meanwhile I recommend nikkypearl & egopersonified as part of the counsellors, I think they r both married.

pickabeau1: As counsellors I nominate greatgod2012, TV01, chaircover, bellong and crackhaus

1one: I recommend Nikkypearl as part of the counsellors...

It's just that....

Her.....

Posts..


Can...

Be..

Very...

Looooooooong a times

But I still recommend her, she get better head.

softsparkyy: For single folks I recommend MizMyColi and MizMyColi.

softsparkyy: And aisha2 though she can be so raw and blunt sometimes.

spanzed: perfect!!!I nominate Rozzay and Temigracie does girls are matured...RESPECT

egopersonified: aisha2 all the way. Time might be a constraint though. But sometimes the posts of a strange username makes so much sense that I go back to check if the moniker is familiar.

Noted.

Seun: @Obinoscopy:
How about asking people to post threads about their relationship problems
and then encouraging counselors to contribute to those threads?
Wait a minute, that's what this entire section is for.

This thread doesn't stop nlers from posting threads about their relationship problems on the Romance Section. The only difference between this thread and the other threads is that we have a selected/limited number of counsellors here. Also there's the anonymity possibility in this thread. Even guests can be part of this thread.

pickabeau1: Obinoscopy

Please can you hide unserious posts

Or else trolls will destroy this thread

The mods in this section are up to the task .

Hi Lovers,

I have an idea. Why don't we create a thread where nlers can seek for counselling on their love affairs. They can choose to be anonymous by sending PMs or sending a mail to a designated anonymous email address or they can choose to post their problems here on nairaland.

I'm suggesting we nominate prominent/respected nlers as counsellors (I'm recommending mostly married folks and a few single folks as counsellors). The mods will ensure forum rules are followed while I along with the counsellors would be the coordinator.

So I need your views on how to perfect this idea of mine. Who are your recommendations for counsellors and what rules do you suggest we include.

If everything goes according to plan, the Counselling Thread will be created by next week.

So folks, the floor is open for suggestions!

Clitoral erections? Hmmmmmm.
