Dis Guy:
I meant front page not First page, they can make it stick to the first page though

another thing is moderators are not online 24/7, so be patient as much as we want to help we shouldn't be overly aggressive!


computer software remove post that have web links in them most of the time, to reduce spamming, the admin
is responsible for reposting those deleted comments- will try to forward it to the admin and moderator
So why don't they stick it on the first page? So the messages on the front page displaces one another automatically, is that what you're saying?

You will be surprised that if you put this thread on other sections it'll get deleted. And who told you they can't make a thread be on the first page? All those section rules that are always on the first page, how do they do it? Is it God that puts them there?

I have to register my displeasure at moderators and sub-moderators of this section, but most especially at Seun. I am really disappointed. This is supposed to be a Nigerian forum, one of the most popular at that, and a fellow Nigerian has a problem - one which the government that we know can't do anything about - however, the powers that be on Nairaland have decided to turn deaf ears to the clamor to save a child who we don't know what could become of him in the future.

I agree there are more adverse conditions than this boy's, but this is what we've been alerted about here. We know Nigerians can run different kinds of scams at different levels, but when it is verified must we turn deaf ears? Of course not. The least Seun and his employees could have done was put this thread on the first page but he has chosen not to do that, however, if it were to be some tribalism and asinine threads, they will make it to the first page. I had to look at the first two pages of this section and still couldn't find this thread until I had to go to my bookmark. Is this really right?

Seun, and I'm not being apologetic about it, I'm disappointed in you (only because I believe you know about this thread). The moderators, I am ashamed of you all. You're nothing to write home about. It's funny that y'all come out here and castigate the government when in fact, most of you can't make do of the little capacity you are placed in charge of. I wonder what would happen of some of you mods are to be governors or senators, or even the president - I know it'll be hell on earth for people beneath you.

If there are over 300,000 members on Nairaland, where 96% of them are Nigerians, and we can't get enough and substantial help for a Nigerian in dire and urgent medical need, then Nairaland is not worth the popularity and credibility it's accorded. Subsequently, it has failed woefully at an important facet. In fact, this fund we are talking about can be raised on Nairaland alone, and you, Seun, will be handed the money to put in the boy's mom's account. But I guess I'll have to wait till another millennium for that to happen.

This is sad. It is frustratingly disappointing. God help us all.

Just wanted to know the angle you're coming from before answering. You can't tell me you're totally clueless what it entails. tongue
Anyway, I judge indecency on character or habits or what you say, also the way you dress and how you present yourself.
Indecent people hate to be told they are not decent. I don't see people in shades of gray cheesy tongue. It's either you're black or white, hot or cold, no "inbetween". Nevertheless it's possible to be decent in an aspect of your life but indecent in another. Yeah, we are not perfect but we should not use that as a reason not to strive to perfection.
These days indecency has been substituted for self expression.
If you smoke, sorry that's an indecent habit. grin
If you cannot construe a single sentence without saying f**k, that's a straight ride on your path to indecency. grin
If you cannot dress according to the occassion at hand due to self expression, you're leaning on being crass and indecent. grin
If you just have to drink to stupor, sorry that's an indecent behavior. grin
Tell me if these are indecent too:

Going to church too much
Going to parties too much
Joke around too much
Getting upset at every little thing
Eating too much food at a time
Drinking too much water
Having too many boyfriends/girlfriends?

If you are addicted to anything intoxicating, its indecent!

If you are not addicted to smoking, then why do it at all? undecided

There's a reason why smoking is considered an anti-social habit. There are 'no smoking' signs everywhere I turn to. Drinking's intoxicating, but its not anti-social!

Moderation or not, smoking is frowned on . . adddicted or not.

I wont want to date/marry a smoker. I wont want to intorduce a smoker to my family . . I'm not saying I wont ever smoke or I've never smoked, I'm just saying its not something I'll be proud of!
So if I'm not addicted to what's not intoxicating, then it's not indecent? OK! I still haven't found a reason smoking is an anti-social habit, and I believe the only reason smoking is detested is because of the risks it poses to health. You choose to smoke, and if you choose to be addicted to it, then it all borders to choice. . . . well, if choice now equals to indecency then I'll understand.

Smoking isn't allowed in public places because of young kids who get to try everything they see -- this is so understandable. So if I'm addictive to sex, am I indecent? Remember also that sex isn't meant for public eyes, and smoking just might fall a little along into this category.

And your last statement about not being a smoker or whatnot, that's a classic 'obamanian' answer grin grin

I'm not addicted to something that is intoxicating. undecided
And everything intoxicating is 'indecent'? What if the person isn't addicted to smoking, is that 'indecent' too?

Ujujoan:
It's a bad habit that reeks of indecency.

Just like:

Exposive dessing

Drinking excessively

Sleeping around with men/women

Bad language

e.t.c

Even though decency/indecency's relative, there are some generally accepted behaviours and generally 'unaccepted' behaviours!
You choose to eat certain foods and not to eat some; same goes with drinking, and as well as smoking. You choose to smoke and not to smoke, and because it's an addictive habit doesn't make it indecent. Do you want to tell me you're not addicted to doing certain things? Do we say, hitherto, that what those things are indecent?

So you think smoking is an 'indecent' behavior? I thought it was just a choice of habit, or habitual choice. Oh, well, it's in your opinion right? grin grin

But in that case,he must have either been married before or not the kind who likes commitment.
There must be something though.Just tell me,are you sure if he isn't rich you would be with him?
Sometimes its important for you to sit and ask yourself questions.No harm meant.Be sure he doesn't have a wife somewhere.[/Quote]

For where? Don't mind the gold-digger. Ask her what he thinks of the man? The first thing she'll say is, "he's caring", "he's kind and understanding" Rubbish!!! Keep deluding yourself and think you're fooling NLers. grin

Romance › Re: Why Do Igbo In Yoruba Land Hate To Give Their Daughter To Yorubas by TheSeeker(m): 7:42pm On Sep 28, 2009
scantee:
My elder Brother was in love with a yoruba girl and finaly decide to marry her, the girls father swear that it will happen over his dead body, this keep them from getting married over five years, they where trying to convince the father to accept the proposal.

the worst is that the father cant even given a reasonable reason why he dosent want her daughter to get marry to an igbo guy, but he keep shouting OMO IBO OMO IBO my brother has to apply all the startage he has to win other family members hart. and they finaly give him green card. but do you believe that the father of the girl refused to attend the wedding of her only dauther.
Tell me about it. I once had a yoruba girlfriend and what stopped me from taking our relationship to another level with her is because her mom kept saying incoherent stuffs about Igbo guys being human eaters, money ritualists, etc. How retarded and backward-thinking can anyone ever get than this, and worst of all, her mom is a professor, well-traveled and supposedly exposed, but I guess education doesn't make you see better all the time, right? As I stated earlier, it's predominant in both tribes; while Igbos may have a tenable reasons to back their claims up judging from the past, Yoruba lacks better point to convey home what they are trying to say.

What's your own definition of the term?
I asked people's opinion, but why didn't you leave yours?
Romance › Decent And Indecent -- What's The Difference?! by TheSeeker(op): 5:46pm On Sep 28, 2009
Decency -- I have heard people use this word all the time to depict what people really are like, maybe in their own terms, or just plain blanketing. The same goes with indecency. In your own terms, definitions, experience - or whatever you choose to use as a yardstick - what does a 'decent' guy/girl mean? What does an 'indecent' guy/girl mean? Give your explanations if you have any.

Going by your expression, can a supposed 'decent' guy have a relationship with an 'indecent' girl? Also, can an 'indecent' girl have a relationship with a 'decent' guy? Should dating exist between only 'decent' girls and guys, and also, between 'indecent' guys and girls, going by your explanation of course.

He's using the new Bible written in Iran, you ever heard about that one? An excerpt from that book says, "There's hope, even if you commit the most abominable sin, to make it to heaven," and that's what our dear pastor N2D is reading.
