@ seun I've been mailing the supermods to change my email address associated to this Nairaland account but no response yet.

I've lost that email address and I wish to link this account to the new email.

Is this not possible?

Good one. Everybody should support and hype his/her candidate in peace. But seun hope I can praise Asiwaju any time I like? Trouble for those on my neck because I support and like Asiwaju, but I'll miss the gbasgbos sha.

Good one Mr Seun.

We would appreciate more of these type of initiatives across board.

A Nairaland with ethical practices/standard will be so appreciated.

A fair and transparent treatment by your moderators would also be appreciated.

Thank you.

Seun:
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.

Seun. This rule won't work until you remove Mynd44 from those that will enforce the rule.
He has a track record of being partial, bias, tribalistic, partisan, and power-drunk.
He will misuse the power given to him and strike anybody that does not align with his political and Tribal identity.
I hope you review this and turn Mynd44 to an ordinary floor member.
Thanks.

Seun why is it okay for Igbo guys to constantly attack Mynd44?

Is that respect for the MODs? Or contacting them privately.

I have just served a ban for calling out Lalasticlalaa publicly for his evident bigotry.

Seun:

I told him that I have become convinced that he is biased because I asked him to host the GRV AMA which was good for Nairaland, but he refused. I have told him to work on his bias and try to conduct himself in a way that will convince everyone that he's no longer biased.
Thank you for your response.

But so far so good, he has become worse than he was before.
I know you won't tolerate anyone of your moderators to display their partisanship on this forum but time and time again, Mynd44 has done that and also giving the Hitler attitude.

Permit me to ask, is he bigger than getting suspended like Ishilove or he is a co-owner of this forum?
God bless Nairaland.

This is long awaited.

You will report a slur and comments against the rules of this forum, but the report will get deleted and the reporter often times banned but the offensive post left alone!!
Hope this will bring an end to this.

I've made major efforts over the years with varying success. I checked out mentally in 2015 after we were hacked but now I'm hands-on.
Why did you check out mentally? What does that even mean? Will Elon musk check out mentally? What kinda of business do you run you check out for over 7yrs?

Lies
Why don't you prove my lies? everyone knows what's happening between pocohantas and a particular supermod that is always shielding her from ban. that's why she feels she can talk to anybody anyhow she likes here.

Seun nobody should be against ban whatsoever, if anyone breaks the rule(s) of this forum let that person be banned including myself, their shouldn't be any form of partiality from now henceforth. 🙁

I'll advise you remove Myndd from the enforcing team cos he/she will only ban people from a particular region.
Please don't think in a old way. Why remove him/her?

DearGorgeous:
This is great, Seun. It's a step in the right direction.

The next step will be to ban any one that verbally abuses or uses derogatory words on the female gender. We birth. We give lives. We increase humanity. We make and keep homes. So it's very unfair to read some unprintable names they call us, only here in Nairaland! It might look simple, but it's a terrible offense against the female gender and humanity itself.

Some of us are low-keyed business tycoons, some are captains of industries, Managing Directors, Chief Executive Officers. Some are doctors, lawyers/barristers, Engineers, to mention but a few. Some of us are here just for the fun of it, and not because we're jobless.

It hurts me as a woman to see some Nairaland boys (they're not men irrespective of their age, because men are matured and don't usually resort to any kind of violence when handling the female gender), raining abuses on the women folks. Calling us whores and every negative word they can think of.

Please instruct the Mods to also look into those derogatory comments aimed at belittling or body shaming the female gender. And issue long term ban to anyone found culpable of such.

Thank you, Sir.
I've been worried about the state of the Romance section and why certain kinds of threads are the most popular there. We definitely need an active Romance section moderator.

Seun you can't deceive all of us. You allowed the hatred and bitterness towards the Igbo people when it suited you and your interests and haven achieved whatever you wanted, you're here trying to mend fences. Tell your Yoruba people that are always hating on the Igbo to stop. Also causion the particular mods that is always pushing any anti-igbo or Igbo bashing threads to the front page to stop. Rebrand nairaland and make it an issue based discussion platform and not Igbo hating platform.




I do not support every word or statement here!!!!!!!!


BUT you see this line ''Seun you can't deceive all of us. You allowed''
