I think what should be banned is the religion section.

That's where most of the youths get the whacky idea that they will go to one imaginary mansion built somewhere in the sky when they die.

I agree. With seun... The first time I decided to try sport bet due to predictions on nairaland, I lost my stake of 50k... A lot of vulnerable people loose alot, especially those that don't know much bout games... Mayb its the betting companies that pay them to make people loose money

Dear Seun,

I think you have a long list of things to ban

1. Snake threads
2. Tiwa and Tbillz threads
3. Olosho threads
4. Tonto Dike threads
5. Ponzi Schemes

The list is endless. I believe we are adults here and can make rational decisions, so take note.

Regards,

Concerned NLer

Why did you bet what you cannot afford to lose? Before you make any decision in life, be aware of its possible consequences. This is not restricted to betting alone but every decision we take in life (they are risks too)

Seun:
Dear Nairalanders,

We are thinking of completely banning the promotion of forex trading and sports betting on Nairaland.

Forex day-trading and sports betting are fundamentally fraudulent because they're promoted as a quick way of making money whereas due to mathematical facts, the only people who make money are the middlemen and marketers. The "investors" almost always lose their money.

In our experience, it's not enough to warn Nairaland members about the dangers of forex day-trading and sports betting. The promise of quick profit is just too much for thousands of vulnerable Nairaland members to resist. The only way to protect them is complete censorship.

We believe that the complete ban of such content will make Nairaland a better platform for discussing legitimate entrepreneurship and finance.
