Lol, seun and his mods gave the garri crew special attention back then, any garri comment na to chop ban

DEIFIED:

I think that should be the second most turbulent or rather historic period on nairaland after the nairaland tsunami.

Defaramade:
what of Ogugua88 & sexkilz vs seun fight?

SeunWedsLinda:
you sef don tey for nairaland

DEIFIED:
yeah it was on my mind when i was posting that. I think that one will come third. Reason being , it was just some to nl top personels fighting, but that of the garri crew affected almost everyone on nairaland, even guest.
I can still remember that fight then, even what lead to it. The beauty contest was dope then, not the one they are organising now. Sexkilz and ogugua where a great organisers then.

Even with all the time you have spent on NL you still haven't learned to write in correct English.

Defaramade:
Garri crew was the most popular crew back then, It was seun and his tyrannical mods that killed that wonderful movement

I love that 'and today no single f*ck was given'

it's me SeunWedsLinda. I've been an active member of this forum for over 3yrs. I'm definitely not going to make list of top 1000 veterans in this forum but I very well understand the terrain here.
Nairaland has seen an advent of cliches trend and die like a whirlwind. It always appears irritating to some overly serious individuals. Who takes what happens online serious anyway?

As an active member of this forum, I've come to list out the top cliches I find hilarious. And I do hope the overly serious and matured ancient of days cut me some slack. Life is too short to get unnecessarily provoked at frivolities.

1. "I schooled in France".
I didn't find this cliche funny initially but as time went on, I was caught up in the fun and believe me, it's actually nice using this when some unknown person seeks media attention. The cliche was used to greater effects as it greatly reduced the constant moving of threads of unidentified personalities to frontpage. However it died silently due to abuse from unscrupulous elements who would use it in every thread. Reviving that cliche wouldn't be a bad idea would it?

2, "The people that give a fvck"
This happens to be the one trending. I may not know whence it came but the person behind this did a great job. It follows after much complaints from nairalanders about unnecessary threads gracing the sort after front page. Coupled by the recessive nature of our economy, arguably every nairalander has learnt not to "give a fvck". But the abuse of this cliche is inevitable hence I envisage it'll go extinct before mid February.

3. The End time crew
You see these set of people screaming "end time" in any thread that has to do with bizarre happenings. It was fun though but like the others, it was hijacked by people that do not understand the proper intent of the cliche.

4. Pics or adonbilivit
They'd request to see pictures like nairaland is a synonym of "gallery" in Android phones. You should thank the starters as this increased pictorial evidence of some threads to 90%. It made for the attachment of "(graphic picture)" or "(photo)" at the end of any topic created on nairaland. However, it died not due to abuse but due to unavailability of data to view pictures. Credit goes to recession for the death of this cliche

I must have forgotten some other cliches but these ones top my list anyday... You can add yours

DEIFIED:
and the most historical one is the garri crew, that period was hell for most nairalander especially the mods, you will see hundreds of hidden posts in one thread, it was like war then, even the spam bot was deployed by seun to be banning people.
Then if you create a thread before you come back to check your thread, the garri crew have hijacked it. Although there where no usless thread as it is this days.
It was that crew that brought the rise of multiple monikers on Nairaland, as the mods were banning them, they were creating more account.
I think a short story should be written about that crew on naira, with user sharing their experience from that period. I believe seun was threaten by those crew then. I sha partake a little sha.

There are other crews the op left out to. Like the "who you don help" crew although they didnt cause trouble much. And there was these cliche then, they call themselves awon werey club. I can still see some of them though.
