Don't just ban the word, but the bot should temporary ban the tribal bst for atleast 24 hours

Dem go get sense

I met with an oath barrier, before I could comment on an Islamic post that was pushed to FP, but no one gets hindered to comment on Christian related post. How about that?
That speak volumes. Cos Nigeria is supposed to be a secular State last I checked. You could be flaming up the fire you're attempting to quench.
Your mods need orientation.
Parallel accounts need policing.
Penalize misleading headlines.

I'm still yet to take you seriously, Seun.

but when Seun said he had brought him back ,the next day homepage was filled with Obi’s post and anti APC’s posts .

The only difference between him an Mynd44 is that the latter airs his opinion on politics once in a while and once declared he’s Yoruba that studied at OAU while the latter does not comment on posts and always post snakes .
Is lala still a mod?

Quiet angry

Because other moderators always let you go scot-free insulting anything Yoruba, Tinubu and Buhari but mynd, I wouldn't surprise at you and your folks reaction
Corridon:
Until you remove the tribalistic Mynd44 as a mod I won't take you serious. His tribesman insulted me and I insulted him back but Mynd44 banned only me. I can furnish you with evidence if you are serious about this.

Fellow Nairalanders,

We have noticed the use of ethnic slurs and other derogatory names by a small but persistent group of political actors and trolls.

This practice of derogatory name-calling adds no value to the forum. It's bad for our mental health, our harmony as a community, and the reputation of Nairaland. It's simply toxic. It's absence and the absence of the people who use those slurs will not be missed.

Therefore I have decided to ban the practice entirely. I have instructed dominique, mukina2, Lalasticlala and Mynd44 to ban anyone who uses an ethnic slur or derogatory name on Nairaland. The antispam bot will also contribute to the effort. Please report any case that you see.

Modify your website rule to International Best Practices.
Imagine Nairaland doesn't have a Comprehensive Privacy Policy, Terms of Use.
Even the Community rule is outdated.
Ethnic slurs is not the only issue your site is facing, you need to deal with Mysoginist and Misandry content as well. Harassment is almost everyday thing on nairaland

This development supposed to come up even before the election campaign but all you guys including seun were busy cashing out from agbada pocket.
Any evidence of that? We accepted political ads, but I'm not aware of any other cashing out. I'll investigate anyone if good evidence is provided.
