sukkot:
dont mind these demonic deluded americans. you will save yourself a few braincells if you ignore the drivel they come out with all the time to try to boost their own egos. just ignore it and your life will be easier.

Reyginus:
True.

sonOfLucifer:
How you doing?

Logicbwoy:
Reyginus, dblackninja and co,

This is why i saw that both the nairaland admin and many nairalanders have problems

Imagine this thread making front page-

https://www.nairaland.com/3072783/student-oversized-suit-project-defense#45094890

Making fun of a poor student just because he probably wore the only suit he had. It could be argued that the suit was funny but in no way should a thread of bad taste make the front page.

This one and the other thread about huge breasts that made front page

Reyginus:
Their is Poverty of Philosophy in Nairaland. Business over morality. That explains it.

If you can tune to TVC News now you'd see why the President has been silent.

An0nimus:
It's all about traffic and the paper yo. Man gotta make bread. lol 'See how this man proposed to his girlfriend' (Photos) . Even goal.com now does click bait headlines

Logicbwoy:
Which one be TVC news?


Nairaland is not even always business before morality. How many pages or views did the yellow suit thread make?

Sometimes, nairaland is backwards culture over common sense.

Reyginus:
Tinubu owned Television Continental.

Look at the Olajumoke story. Whatever Pampas she puts on we get to hear about it. Why? The people love magic and your money is save on that account. They are simply giving people what they want. Look at the love for Poor Quality Music. The display on Front Page. They don't know these are corrupted Music. I'm not talking about the words in them but the sounds behind them. If your music lacks harmony it becomes corrupt. And we love it that way. But how many people know this?

Logicbwoy:
That is the thing.

1) The clickbait does not even work. There are atheist threads (which are considered bad for business) that generate 2 times the pages and views that these front page threads do.

2) The clickbait is borderline immoral- entering into cyberbullying/shaming- imagine if those people (the woman with big boobs and the boy in yellow suit) were nairalanders- it would violate rules 2 and 10 of nairaland itself

Logicbwoy:
Yes, I know that the threads on front page are there to generate traffic butmy complaint is that some of the threads that make the front page are silly and do not generate traffic.

An0nimus:
I want to believe the owner MODs look at relevant stats from time to time. Maybe that's why they are sticking with this style. Personally, I've decided against clicking on them 'see photos' celebrity threads. Wetin concern me and Anne Idibia wey wake up come snap picture for her husband house?

Like Rey has said, it's what people want that is sold to them. It's the same thing in music. If we were managing a similar business we might do same.

Reyginus:
I think they know better. They can't just be pushing silly topics that do not generate traffic to the front page. It can't be a lose lose situation.

Logicbwoy:
They do. There was an analysis of the women bashing threads. What it showed was that feminist threads do better than those "10 things" threads that bash women. Those "10 things" thread make front page more often and yield less traffic.


Reyginus, you should know me by now. I don't do things without evidence or at least, logic.

Reyginus:
Okay o. I know the ethnic bashing thread are optimus prime.

Logicbwoy:

Tufanja:
Ooh...someone is deceiving himself.. Shall we provide him evidence and logic of that, Rey?

Logicbwoy:
Yes, please, I love to be spanked corrected.

Tufanja:
Lol, no worries, we will provide correction pants

Logicbwoy:
Here is another silly thread that made the front page and did not even yield traffic

https://www.nairaland.com/3071590/5-reasons-not-attend-private


Problems with the thread
1) The thread managed to generate 6 pages. Atheist threads that are deemed "bad for business" make at least 10 pages if they hit the front page)
2) 4 out of 5 of the OP's points are false. The only truth against private universities is that they are expensive.
3) The OP is written in poor English/grammar which not only violates rule 21, it is also a huge point of hypocrisy as the op complains about people who can't defend their degrees. The silly op cant even write Englishg.




I give up. Seun, abeg, make me a mod and I guarantee you better frontpage threads (err...after I ban ishitlove permanently )

Reyginus!! More panties!!!!!!!

Reyginus:
Lol. Just tell him you need a Job.

Logicbwoy:
I dont need a job......but nairaland needs the dark knight mod. A mod that Nairaland deserves.

Reyginus:
Lol. You'd notice I ignored that part. Just let him be. I don't want to dry clean anything this afternoon.

Reyginus:

Reyginus:
Lol. I know you prefer everything without pants.

Tufanja:
What do you want to do this your afternoon? I was just thinking about going out for a coffee, you mind to join ?

Logicbwoy:
You mean that you dont want to wash panties because you're tired?



But seriously, why did you ignore thAT part? You hurt my feelings! You dont believe in my logic? Then why am i logicboy?

Reyginus:
Lolololol. No, because I don't want to make the Jordan go dry. Their is no need to make a Pharaoh out of anyone.

You know it's arguable. I don't agree with all your logic so I can't really affirm that part even though your intentions may be good.
