abba190:
which one be anti-women trends?

See the Romance section.

GoldenGTV:
How do you intend to defeat tribalist?
These one's have come to stay or you'll keep deleting comments or ban user's?

I'll be watching keenly.

We will ban then and delete their tribalistic posts. We will ban everyone that uses ethnic slurs.

Thazard:
Seun I think phone numbers should be use for registration instead of email.

I think you are right about that.

Fellow Nairalanders,

I'm pleased to wish you a Happy New Year!!

2024 will be the year of Nairaland's resurgence. I will face Nairaland squarely like I used to before the discouraging Data Loss Incident of 2014. I will hire more hands to help us to improve Nairaland.

The problems of Nairaland that we should have solved years ago will be solved.

* We will defeat tribalists, trolls, & spammers.
* We will complete our advertising platform.
* We will improve the UI and UX.
* Home page topics will be educative & fresh.
* We will reverse the anti-women trends.

However, I must warn you that things will get worse before they get better. Please stand with us and fight for us as Nairaland faces the tough challenges of 2024, which have already started.

Happy New Year and thanks for using Nairaland!

Seun Osewa,
Nairaland's Founder.

disqualified based on your username.

jmoore:
You dey recruit person but you no wan pay am.

They need to prove themselves first. Reddit doesn't have paid moderators as far as I know, but we do.

Fergie001 has been recruited as a section moderator. Section moderation is unpaid, but it's a stepping stone to paid supermoderation.

Beverlyjean:
Seun...this person posted this...I reported it since yesterday....people like Mynd44 will overlook this but banned another person for 2yrs for the post below... now u see why the igbos are not happy and believe that u are also a tribalist ... I reported this post and u and ur mods did nothing and this same person now opened a new thread calling on other tribes to descend on igbos ....I have said it and will continue to say it...yorubas are tribalist , both online and in real life

See the attached screenshot. Mynd44 did the right thing by banning him for one of his tribalistic posts. However, he did not go through his posts to delete all the other tribalistic posts like the one you saw. This allowed the post to continue to cause harm and created a wrong impression that the tribalist has not been punished.

Two things to do differently: (1) go through every tribalist's history and hide all the tribalistic posts. (2) indicate that they have been banned.

raumdeuter:
The mods are doing their best but when people are dedicated to their act there is nothing the mods can do. It's simply to find creative ways of passing the message they are trying to.

Moderators can ban the crap out of them. It they have multiple handles, those handles can be terminated (10 year ban). There have been two times when a supermod bizarrely informed me that he/she has stopped banning the worst offenders because they usually register new accounts. So if a new member innocently broke a rule, they'd get banned, but if a known offender broke a rule, he/she would just ignore him. I was like 🤯

Roland17:
Right there is an exchange between Seun and a handle where Seun openly admitted a Supermod blatantly refuses to ban tribal bigots because they bring traffic

Actually, tribal bigots don't bring traffic. The less toxic a platform is, the more traffic it will attract. That's why I had no financial concerns whatsoever about banning the crap out of tribal bigots on Nairaland. But the supermods didn't cooperate, so I had to do a lot of it myself. Once I got tired and left it to them, that was the end. If you ask them they will insist that they are doing the job, but the data says otherwise.

I thought they said inflation in Nigeria was caused by expensive food? Now they are saying our food is cheap? Both cannot be true, can they?

SlavaUkraini:
Even if you are not Tribalistic, have you not noticed that mynd44 is a Bloody Tribal Bigot?
#mynd44 must go [/b]

Mynd44 is pro-APC, but he is not a tribalist. In all our extensive and explosive interactions, I have detected no hint of tribalism whatsoever.

I'm overwhelmed right now; phew.

I'm overwhelmed right now; phew.

I would like to address the allegations on Twitter about tribalism on Nairaland or that I am some kind of tribalist, because I was told that not addressing them means that they are true.

The more extreme variants of that claim are being pushed primarily by south-eastern tribalists who feel that south-western tribalists have the upper hand on Nairaland in their battles with each other.

Whenever they are banned after breaking rule 2 of Nairaland, they will go back to Twitter to lament about how Nairaland is against their tribe and how I'm personally working against them.

I urge you to disregard any accusation against me or against Nairaland if the accusers cannot prevent hard evidence to support their claims. These people make things up, and people just believe them.

For avoidance of doubt, I have always been a supporter and admirer of south-eastern people. I will never have any tribalistic bone in my body. I am a human who views people as humans first.

The micro-kernel of truth in the mountain of lies is that Nairaland is under-staffed. The staff I have do not moderate as efficiently as I want them to. They also struggle with following my instructions.

So if you go to Nairaland looking for tribalism, you will find it in certain areas, just as you will if you search Twitter for tribalism, because of people whose main business online is tribal trolling.

However, I want Nairaland to be better than Twitter. I want to improve the consistency of moderation on Nairaland. For this reason, I am in the process of recruiting more people to help.

Nwaotu10:
I had a dream where a black hen was handed over to me by my late Dad.

In the dream, it appears he visited someone and the person gave him the hen, so he handed it to me.

I wonder what the dream means.

It means you miss your Dad and you've been looking forward to eating chicken during the holiday season. When you're eating Christmas chicken, you should remember your Dad and talk about him with the rest of your family. Remember his support and generousity.

tivta:
I keep dreaming of my good old days In secondary school, gisting with classmates etc these are the only good dreams I seem have. What do you think it means.

You miss your old friends and the times you had together. You should probably reconnect with them, if you can.

RUGGEDWEAVER:
Good morning; please help me interpret this dream.
I dreamt that I was really doing well (first time of having such kind of richness in my dream) and I help a lot of people and not my brothers (they didn’t help me when they had something back then ). Everybody was really happy with me that I have made it… except one of my brother, inside the dream he said I should help him and I told him i don’t have so while he was eating he gave me some meat to eat as well but I collected it and trow it away then I woke.

This suggests that you harbour negative thoughts about your brother. You need to have a long talk with your brother to resolve your issues.

ademijuwonlo:
Hi, Please I need interpretations to my dream. Thanks in advance.
In my dream, I was using my hand to disturb/play with a bucket of water in front of a house and as I was playing with the water inside the bucket, long grasses were joining itself to my fingernails. Please, what does this mean?

You are a potential green thumb - someone who is good at growing plants. You need to start a garden in your compound as soon as possible.

You need to call or send someone to the motor park where you boarded the vehicle and the one where you were dropped. That's where they are supposed to deposit lost items.

iHart:
Suen is no longer banning people because its reducing traffic. He got it wrong when he allowed tribal wars to go on here. Many meaningful people left and the majority of the bigots remained. If he decides to ban the tribal bigots, he can't bring back the good people. So what is driving the forum now are just this banters and bullies.

The supermods have refused to take care of the tribal bigots. Just recently one of them was telling me that she doesn't ban them because of traffic after I clearly said that the people who engage in tribal slurs will not be missed when we ban them. I will start penalizing them harshly.

HardMirror:
I am now a proud father of a Set of twins. A boy and a girl, perfect combo.

Remember I am an atheist, so no need to say any prayers if you want to congratulate me. God did not do it. Good things happens to everyone and anyone not just people who believe in a god. And bad things can happen to everyone and anyone even if you believe in a god.
2023 has been my best year. A job that pays me in $$$$, A wife that is a jewel and a set of twins. What more can I ask for.
The best women are the ones who don't make noise online. Love you plenty plenty my lovely baby.

Cc lordreed hahn hopefullandlord seun make una come rejoice with me

Congratulations!

We need to see the car in motion. Could you provide that?

Prigidypogodo:
yes oooo

What do you missed
how much do you love this beautiful forum ?

Thanks for this beautiful thread. We had to to suspend it from the home page to get our message out first; sorry about that.
Read it here: https://www.nairaland.com/7945193/nairaland-partially-back-work-progress

Dear Nairalanders and Advertisers.

Nairaland's server was taken down by our host's abuse team because of an abuse report that wasn't attended to on time.

After rectifying the error, we brought the server back for a few minutes, but they decided to take the server down again. Since then, we haven't heard from the abuse team, yet the support team keeps insisting that only the abuse team can help us.

So we had to transfer Nairaland to a temporary host in order to bring it back to you. A VERY time-consuming process. We are not fully back, even though most features of the site are working. We still have a long way to go. Additional downtime is likely; don't let it alarm you.

There's a lot more to say, but I have to go back to work to ensure that our return is permanent. Please forgive us for the stress we caused. We appreciate the love and support that you showed us during the ordeal. Nairaland is too important for us to let this happen again.

Best Regards,
Seun Osewa.

SoftP:
