@Seun The share button is useless. Change it to Dislike or something similar. Also, you probably need a custom reaction button that is unique to nairaland. I can think of a few if you are open to it.

Any bot that will not ban bigotry on this forum is a failed bot. And ban should be not less than 48 hrs

We shall also appreciate fairness and equity in religious matter by having Muslims and other non-Christians to swear an oath before being allowed to make comments on Christian topics like it’s currently applicable to the Islamic topics.

Thank you our dear Seun
I'm fully in support of this, good morning.

Dear Nairalanders,

I want to thank you for your continued feedback and patience as we tackle the crisis caused by our decision to use the antispam bot to enforce more rules on Nairaland. While the action helped us to tackle many chronic issues, it also led to disastrous ban of hundreds of innocent Nairalanders. To significantly improve accuracy and reduce frustrating errors, we have refocused the bot's tasks. It will avoid moderating complex issues that require human nuance that it cannot reliably provide.

While we work on further improvements, here are some tips to ensure your posts don't accidentally trigger the bot under its current, focused mandate:
- Keep your posts related to the thread topic.
- You can disagree strongly with fellow Nairalanders, but do not insult them.
- Don't put any type of obscene content on Nairaland.
- Do not encourage or call for violence against anyone.
- Don't spam or try to scam Nairalanders. We will not tolerate this.
- Don't illegally upload or post links to illegally download copyrighted music, movies, games, or software.

We believe these changes are a significant step towards a better balance – tackling clear violations more effectively while minimizing the frustration caused by bot errors on complex social issues. We will continue to monitor the bot's performance closely.

Thank you for being part of the Nairaland community.

Best Regards,
Seun Osewa.
I was banned yesterday for returning an insult to an APC Ronu on the issue of Gov Alia and Benue state. The miscreant wasn't banned as I found out.

WHYhuh

@Seun

I must commend you for trying to make the effort to bring some level of sanity on this website which I have used since 2005.

NOW, you have to quickly ensure an absolute BAN on all those "young paid troll farms" who have been deliberately and relentlessly referring FALSELY to President Bola Tinubu on a lot of NL threads as a "drug lord, drug baron, druggie, Iragbiji drug lord, Pablo, Escobar," etc. These are highly defamatory and an insult to those of us who stand for justice. I still saw one troll insulting Tinubu with that FALSE term "drug lord" in his post a few minutes ago.

In 2003, the United States Embassy in Lagos State through the Legal Attache of the Embassy CLEARLY stated in an official document attached right BELOW that Tinubu has NEVER been a convicted criminal in the FBI official central database of ALL the convicted criminals in United States' history.

It will never happen, Christians and atheist cause nuisance in the Islamic section hence why Seun placed an oath there but you won't see a Muslim going to a Christian section to derail, spam or cause nuisance.
AntiChristian is a Muslim who is notorious for being a nuisance in the religion section (Christian posts and toopics) check his profile, topics and posts before you start writing what you know nothing about.
Even his moniker says it all

Initially you claimed that Muslims don’t derail Christian threads, I gave you evidence you then claimed that it is only AntiChristian. Can you see yourself? Dishonorable people keep shifting goalposts

I'm not shifting goal post, just stating the obvious, go to Islam section and see how threads are being derailed by Christians, infact it's a little better than few years because the mods are banning them.
