@Wale……….'Don't ban people cos a certain girl prefers em' to you or bcos you can't get the attention you want from females'. I am quite surprised by this statement. Both of you are obviously in a truce over a babe. Interesting what you people have decided to turn the site into. You people are really putting me off from getting to that site again, if trivial issues like girls can be the cause of such great animosity between the 2 of you. Just curious, the supposed females in question, have you gotten to see them? Both of you are fantasing over what you have not even seen, how funny and very childish, I think both of you should grow up.

@ Seun, I think you sould leave your opinion out of the forum and let people express themselves freely, thats not to say they should abuse the forum by using languages that are not reasonable. For example, Dipo has his personal beleives and makes it known but he does not impose it on other neither does he mind if anyone disagrees with his personal opinion. Thats the way it should go.

The probs I belive is that majority of the contributors are very young people who do not act with maturity.

As for education, though not so important in business, can give you an edge. It also gives you a personal sense of acheivement. Its never too late moreso that you are still very young.
Keep the flag flying, wishing you all the best

This one na serious matter, I hope Seun and Wale will not go to the wrestling bout soon?

Wale,
Hmmmmn Interesting.

Girly issues too.... interesting.

Ademife,
1. i know name calling is lowly, but so is bullying and coercion by banning.»
2. Seun has to succeed in other ventures to be truly successful according to «entrepreneurship principles» which he subscribes to.

An aveage nairalander (1year or more ) fears Seun. We need to stop cowardice in Nigeria, this is how the likes of IBB started. Because he is smart and owns nairaland does not mean we should all bow to his dictatorship. For all those that still don't get my point.Here goes:
SEUN SHOULD STOP USING NAIRALAND TO FORCE HIS IDEOLOGY ON PEOPLE.
Don't ban people cos a certain girl prefers em' to you or bcos you can't get the attention you want from females

Don't ban people cos they think entrepreneurship is not for everyone

Don't use the excuse of «Nairaland rules» for you personal beef

If you never come across seun on Nairaland, then everything will be fine.But its funny how we seem to meet on different threads, and i wont suck up to him just because he is the admin. I dont even have a problem with Seun being a professor or a drop-out, my point is that he should know better that critiquing is common place in the social sciences. If he's gonna edit post and ban people because they raise an academic dialogue that opposes/critique his supposed capitalist mentality, then he should stick to his field of engineering.
Those that want a list, here goes:
Clocky
Loverbwoy
Walelead
Havila
All intellectuals who argue sensibly, all banned indefinitely.
Debosky
4play
Davidylan
Gamine
All banned many timesfor trivial reasons which mostly include disagreeing with Seun. How can you run a public forum where everyone fears YOU.
I used to praise Seun as well until i realised that he uses his position to intimidate nairaland members. That, i dont agree to.He should ban people that disobey rules,cause a nuisance and insult other members, not bully people that are of similar or higher mental orientation. And if you ask him he will pretend as if he does not know what you are talking about,» Oh, you must have disobeyed the rules of Nairaland».
I still reccomend Nairaland.com to my friends but warn them not to ever disagree with Seun.

Wale,

whatever d beef is between u and seun, i think u should either grill it or fry and have some meal 2gether!

Loads,
Well said.
Wale,
I've learnt in life that to «listen to all men but also filter all i hear on a screen of truth and take only the good that comes through». However, with the way you responded to the article, people would most likely be seeing the animosity you have towards seun and would not listen to the points you're making no matter how valid they are. Calling him a mere engineering drop-out i think is a little off the edge on a public forum like this. By the way, The Bill gates and the Duo that started «google»as well as other successful IT related businessesmen didn't achieve their level of success from completing school so it really doesn't matter. I understand how you feel about someone being dictatorial on a forum that is intended to serve public interest but there are better ways to go about issues like this. You never can tell, you guys might just have a lot to offer this generation if you put your isues aside and do a few projects together.

Wale,
Most great businessmen drop out but that does not mean they are not brilliant. If you are a businessman you really dont need a certificate to succeed but if you are chasing a career then that is different.

The moment you register your name on his site then you have agreed to go by the rules. Lets encourage the man. I have personally gained a lot from nairaland and still gaining. And I hope the site continue to go from strength to strength.
