When Will Literature And Writing Section Get Justice??? by HumbledbYGrace(f): 7:26pm On Feb 27, 2013 |
[b] To Seun Osewa and the supermods of Nairaland. Well Iam a Nairaland fan hailing from twitter to facebook and I have to admit the Forum is very educative. I just have a tiny complaint though. I have been observing something very unpleasant to the lovers of literature. Someone once asked why do crappy stories hit FRONT PAGE and a certain someone replied him by saying the Forum belongs to Seun so whatever he says should be on front page should go but our section knows no JUSTICE at all. Iam always online, not because I have nothing to do but because I love reading. I read more than I eat!!! Ok, Literature section was dead before Cuddlemii took to the throne, that I have back up evidence from two moderators whom I won't name for all our sakes. And after waking up the dead section and making it lively, our stories always end up in the recycle BIN! Which is so not fair because all I see are stupid celebrity gossips and romance stories on FP. 2weeks ago a song which was very annoying made front page, it wasn't even a song. It was more like a kindergarten's winnie the pooh lyrics. I always throw taundrums at Cuddlemii but she is doing her job! Do we need to be friends with the supermods offline to have my stories on Frontpage ![]() Please go check the Literature section, we are only trying and need nairalanders support not their backs. All Iam saying is that the section should be looked at in a different angle. [/b] Seun I humbly beg you to look into these 3 Likes |

HBG, I feel your pain, but the Mods/Seun seem to prefer threads that can generate traffic to this site. It's not only the Literature section that suffers from bias, there are some quality threads in the Politics section that have never made the FP. I'll suggest that u take your thread to the 'complaints' sub-section of any section, for the mods to consider it FP worthy. My 2 kobo. 1 Like |

HumbledbYGrace: Okay. I guess you just have to hope that a quality thread will make the FP. Keep trying though. |

HumbledbYGrace: thanks dearYou're welcome ![]() There was even a thread that was created last year, which made the FP earlier this month. Lol |

@HBG, thank you for bearing your mind. I think I have an idea that will favour everyone. I will create a thread for FrontPage recommendations. The recommendation thread would have rules and criteria for selecting topics. Each day, I will select the first recommended topic from the pool of topics recommended and submit it for the FrontPage. However, the topic must be worthy of the FrontPage(.i.e. quality write-up, proper spacing, paragraphing, punctuations, etcetera) A comprehensive & descriptive outline of how this would be done, would be pasted later today. We will all work collectively to ensure we present quality threads for the FrontPage. I am sure Seun & the Super moderators have seen this. If not, I will inform them about it. I will take it up from here. Regards. 1 Like |

So someone moved my complaint here? If I needed it here I would have just trashed it to the complaints thread as we have it here too. Can someone tell me what the hell is going on here? @ Cuddlemii...That will not be necessary! The stories that hit front page were not better than the ones that end up in the RB ![]() |

HumbledbYGrace: So someone moved my complaint here? If I needed it here I would have just trashed it to the complaints thread as we have it here too. Can someone tell me what the hell is going on here? There is a huge difference between a writer and a poster. Much is expected of a writer! In all fairness, topics from the literature section make the FrontPage. But, now that you've brought it to our notice, we will ensure that quality write-ups make the FrontPage frequently. |

Cuddlemii:I get u |
Re: When Will Literature And Writing Section Get Justice??? by Nobody: 10:27pm On Feb 27, 2013 |
Cuddlemi,you said worthy of front page(punctuation,spacing etc)?? I once asked for the criterion/criteria for moving topics to front page...the answer i got was that it's based on supermod recommendation. Do you have a different criterion? |
Re: When Will Literature And Writing Section Get Justice??? by HumbledbYGrace(f): 10:29pm On Feb 27, 2013 |
Cuddlemii:I will be waiting |

centje: Cuddlemi,you said worthy of front page(punctuation,spacing etc)?? Obviously, any quality write-up is worthy to make the frontpage. But, I believe writers should set themselves apart. I am only using this opportunity to address other characteristics of a good write-up. Not to worry, the recommendation thread, that I would be creating today, should help us serve each other better. All suggestions to aid this process is welcome. Thanks |

Yes oh. Any mention of Tonto Dikeh is sure to hit the FP ![]() |

@centje, Cycle: members - recommends to moderator moderator - submits to supermoderator supermoderator - adds topic to the frontpage; also has the option of selecting quality topics for the frontpage. |
