Moving to islam section

So it doesn't get too nasty. If the sexuality section gets too nasty, the nastiness will spill out of the section.

Alas, NL is a one man business for now.

The only problem with Nigerian mental health specialists is that, sometimes, they fail to check for causative factors. For example, if a person's mental challenge is caused by a stroke or infection or reaction to a drug, they may not do the proper tests. They'll just give you the regular treatment. So I feel it's a good idea to consult both mental specialist hospitals and very good teaching hospitals for a more complete understanding of what's happening to your brother. Always get a second doctor's opinion. Good luck.

The sexuality section does not appear on google search pages.

Can any doctor in the house make more enlightened recommendations, please? Most of us are not experts.

Some of these issues are caused by things like head injuries and infections and untreated dental issues.
There is nothing better than taking him to a good hospital. Don't listen to any stupid advice others may give you.
If the doctor at the hospital you took him to doesn't have a clue, take him to a better hospital.
What's wrong with the specialist hospital you took him to? Take him back there or take him to LUTH or Aro...

nasty45: ^^thanks u both....sleepin pills?sure that'l work?is there sth like a drug related test in the hospital?thanks y'al for your advise...been tinkin if there's sth i can giv him to sedate him a lil

You should have taken him to the hospital by now, instead of embracing the worst advice on the thread. Please, get him to a hospital right away. And please, don't administer drugs you know nothing about; you could end up making things worse or killing him. Drugs do interact with sedatives.

Ishilove: How can you keep up when you are too tight fisted?? You want to carry the whole load on your head because you don't want to employ people to help you... Stingy koko.

I have two employees, but they don't reply posts for me.

Check your email.

Chedarking: What now happens to all the bigoted, evil, racist statements on Nairaland?

All the abuse spilling over 5 pages?

And all the stupid posts about celebrities and their mothers?

Are you gonna hide them too?

Stop trying to impose your personal opinions on a public forum...even if it is yours!

You may ban me now.

Why should I ban you when you're just giving me your opinion? We certainly plan to deal with bigoted, evil, racist statements too.

[quote author=solidbroda]when u ban everybody in nairaland, ur eyes go open. If nah so yahoo and fcbook dey ban people without warning, maybe they would have massive followers? Anyway, just do what's is diplomatic and not tyranny[/quote
I'm confused. Isn't this thread a sufficient warning?

[quote author=Okija_juju]Seun,

I think you are going about this the wrong way. As the resident Eze Mmuo of Nairaland, I really do not see how enquiring about the relationship between a thread (which more often than none are absolutely useless threads that even hit the frontpage) and the price of Garri can be misconstrued to be 'wrong'..

'How does this affect the price of Garri" is simply a figure of speech particularly an Idiomatic expression that simply means "How does this affect anything'. I really think that you should reconsider your stand on this subject matter and treat it as just another one of those things. Otherwise, anyone who posts any message that is remotely divergent from the topic of a thread should be banned.

I would say thanks for your cooperation, but seeing as you have not once cooperated on any of my requests in the past from 'Creating a Photography thread, to making an Igbo man a super Mod to even stopping the ethinically charge Tribalism against the Igbo Nairaland community', I would end this message with;

Thanks and Hope you surprise me for once in over 5 years on nairaland.
[/quote]It's gone too far. People now ask about the price of garri on every thread, and it's not as if they are sincerely interested in it.

uihebom: Why don't you carry a chair to the market so that it will be easy for you to monitor the price of garri.

Excellent suggestion!

DICKtator: @op:President of the NL garri association. Your head dey there!!!. I salute you!!.
While serving your ban, hope you spent time researching on issues that affects the price of garri and how such issues can be ameliorated.
I fully support the movement.
Garrinomics is here to stay.
It is the Renaissance- era of NL.

P.S:_{but how does this affect the price of garri on a serious note?}

I'm actually asking myself the same question!

Take him to the best hospital you can afford. It's probably treatable. It's not a spiritual problem and may not be the drugs. Get medical help.

You've been unbanned o.

[quote author=~Bluetooth]Not everyone was raised an asshole. . . . . . .Some of us actually know our rights and seun must respect that.Stop sounding like a bootlicker here.[/quote]Actually, I respect your rights. I really do. You have my word on this. What was your complaint about mukina2, by the way?

Korrection: when are we having NL get together party?? abi you be spirit?

I am not a spirit. However, I have serious issues and I have to hide myself for now in order to not to be mocked. No parties!!

SamAfrik: Well I'v been on NL less than 6mnths & av nt come across 'bad words/pix'.
Think mgt shd decide if they want quality or quantity. NL is by far beta than in terms of intelligent posts, I dont even bother reading comments on naija papers anymore.

Aww, thanks. I really appreciate this comment. People like you make the work we do worth doing!

Chedarking: Is it just me?

But I can imagine Seun and his army of Mods sat at the round table formulating new banning strategies.

Muki sat at his right hand taking notes, maclantunji doing pressups and Sexkillz sharpening his cutlass...while Seun prepares his holy rules based on the bible, the Koran, and Ugo C. Ugo.

And all this after a successful mission to eliminate garri sellers at iyanapaja market.

The mods must be crazy...

That's a hilarious mental picture! We would rather not have to ban anyone, though. It's a thankless job.

Zeus I: Good, so when should we commence on the reporting? Because frankly speaking, some persons up-here elicited the act of tribal sentiments in me, thus: resentful comments, but, i assure you, i am very versatile in adapting to changes, i was trained for war as well as in diplomacy, i can be polite as well as rude. If tribal sentiment could be reported, i will begin reporting right away, seriously.

You can start reporting right away. Thanks!

P Beni: I'm pretty sure Mr. Seun and his silly, partial, tribal, numbskul Mods won't do anything about the complaints on tribal insults. Infact, they pretty much enjoy watching people from different tribes insult each other.

No true. We welcome vigorous debates on ethnic issues, but we don't welcome insults or other types of personal attacks.

mko abiola: Such comments n pix makes nairaland interesting.
Atimes insult makes NL interesting.
I can now see a boring nairaland.
Y is seun not responding

Could this be true?

[quote author=~Bluetooth]I think the whole idea is about conflict of interest and suppression of the rights of nlers in a contemporary democratic society.Seun and his mods derive their power from the forumites' obedience to their orders and they are afraid of a classless site.They see themselves as a ruling class while everyone else is seen as a subject class. This ruling class oppress the subject class by using the instruments available to them such as ban but they forget that power is not monolithic.You cant cage or bully people forever.we are in a free society,we've got rights and NL must respect our rights. Say no to ABSOLUTISM on NL.This is a free society not Animal Farm.[/quote]It's about commercial interests imposing certain standards on us and punishing us heavily for not meeting up to those standards.

sweetcocoa: Is he scraping sexuality section or what?

No, that won't be happening anymore.

alexola20: I think Oga Seun is more like a d.ic.k-tator with many rules.For my papa sake,this is just internet forum,yesterday was garri palaver today na different tory.Maybe Seun should consider banning everyone from commenting on topics/threads on nairaland.So that we can just come here,read and pass without giving our own opinions on matters that matters.

I am personally committed to making sure Nairaland serves as a platform where every Nigerian can speak his/her mind and be heard. I'm not a dictator by nature. I don't look forward to controlling people or telling them what to say. But as a commercial site, there are certain standards imposed on us by our various partners.

ujchief: What? I reported some tribe bashing thread to ur mods at the complaint thread of the Politics section yet nothing was done! Do u mean we should ignore the complaint thread and make our complains here?

I'm sure the moderator will do something about the thread soon. If not, send me a pm.

yam: i thin the issue is dis there should be proper guidelines on the do and dont on the site which should be stated clearly and obvious before anybody intend to be a member then he/she knows clearly what the site is all about.

Good idea. We're actually working on a new set of rules and regulations, but I'm not satisfied with what we have so far.

Mavor: So is nairaland now a religious site or is your pastor disturbing you? Why does free speech have to be censored? The old nairaland doesn't use to be so restrictive and suffocating. I wonder where you are getting these new ideas from. Foreign discussion sites like nairaland which exists in free societies are not like this. As far as I am concerned, if someone comes here and sees something he or she doesn't like,then the person should get the fu<k out. Free society. No one forced you to come here. Hope the popularity of your site is not getting to you bro. If I come here and find out that I can't have an adult discussion or I must be chaperoned, I go just waka. Pure and simple. You will start losing members one by one as a result. Pornographic pictures I can understand, not free speech man. Cheers.

Personally, I am a very liberal person. I hate censorship. However, there is a factor I can't discuss openly pushing us to do this.

ganye1: Is there no rule against insulting tribes and religions of others? Some of the comments go as far as advocating genocide against some ethnic groups and adherents of other religions. As I am new on NL are this type of comments acceptable or they are not acceptable but there is nothing that can be done to stop them?

Posts advocating genocide are not allowed. They should be reported by members and removed instantly by moderators.

Maleeq: The nifty, but oft-ignored [b]"Report" [/b]link on every post should suffice for reporting such posts!

Sure, but this is a special experiment and up to this point, it has failed completely!!
