No, this is purgatory

I can't defend others because I don't know enough to form an opinion, but assuming Poco is what you claim she is, then she was made that way by men. You see, Poco, Laveda, Coco and a few others whose names I can't remember have seen hell at the hands of men here. I have been here long enough to know this.

If they were weak like the others, they would have folded long ago because it wasn't easy for them back then. So, men are responsible for whatever they are today. You can't keep maligning people unprovoked and expect them to stay the same. They either match your strength or exit the forum; Poco chose the former.

Thank you for being unbiased. I dey always dey my own jeje and they would be dragging me. Yet they expect me to fold? I no fit gree for anybody o. A decade on these streets came at a cost.

pocohantas:


They should use the report button more.

Everytime they come up with these threads, I have always volunteered my account for auditing of misandry. I hope they can do same.

Lol they be trying really hard to undermine ladies complaints with these threads but who cares, I wouldn't even volunteer my moniker because I'm guilty of misandry and own it with my full chest, only as a reactionary measure sha.

No, this is purgatory

Majority of what we have here is the male version of twitter feminism, nobody should take them serious.

If you were indeed a misandrist, best believe he would have attached links to your threads. They know they have nothing on these females except say we have enough craze to match them. I own that one with my full chest. If they bring war, I am very capable. I am not virtuous at all.

There is a difference between occurances and a trend. Do you really think a page would be enough if one starts collating all the anti-women threads on this platform, especially in the romance section? At least, you were able to name some specific people and tagged them with whatever label you've chosen. One can't even pick a specific set of names if the table is turned because it has become a norm for most guys here to insult Nigerian women all because they want to "belong". Nobody has an better view of this platform that the owners who monitor it very closely. If they are out to tackle the anti-women trend, it's because they can clearly see that it has become a very serious issue on here. I've seen many people create threads like this just to undermine that effort, but that only goes to show how deep-rooted the problem is.

When we say black lives matter, we're not saying that others don't. We're only identifying and addressing the lives that have been treated differently for long. When Seun says he's out to wage war against the anti-women trend, it doesn't mean a war against men and certainly doesn't mean there aren't threads like the one you referenced. It simply means that he and his team have observed something that poses a threat to the existence of thier platform and they are facing it head-on. There'll always be some people bickering on both sides, but when it becomes a dangerous trend where everything leads to the abuse of a whole gender so constantly to the point where they have to leave the platform for you, then it begs for attention.

When you open most of the threads up there, you'd see that most times, it's always the OP versus other commenters. But when you open the anti-women threads, the whole page would be full of other guys joining the OP to insult women. That is already a movement. Even in unrelated threads, you still see people typing "Nigerian girls are useless", "fear women", etc. A lady cannot create a thread here to seek advice without being abused for things a guy would easily get a pass on. We see threads of crimes committed by guys every single day, and no one mentions anything about gender, but once it's a lady, everyone would be on about how women are this or that. How are you not worried about this dangerous dichotomy? How do you expect our sisters and daughters to feel about themselves when they read these things? It's time to grow up and know that always calling out the opposite gender doesn't make anyone more manly. If anything, it's boyish.

You have spoken well.

Pocohantas and cococandy were so bullied and attacked back then, people of weaker character would have left the forum. Instead, Poco especially turned into the dragon lady that she is today. These days the trolls are learning to avoid them because they give them back 10 times. The reason why I wasn't particularly a target was because I kuku no send their papa right from the outset. I always let them know that the baga who can bully me, online and offline has not yet been born (although I too collected small. Apparently I am 45 years old, divorced, was fvcked to an inch of my life, my womb mercilessly shifted and my legs spread from Timbuktu to Kafanchan by a Nairalander in a hotel in Ondo state).

They have gone unchecked for too long and the admin allowed the forum to turn to a sickening cesspit. If this was how it was when I first registered, i would not have lasted as long as I have. I would have exited a long time ago because of the toxicity. So many reasonable Nairalanders have long left because of the rubbish going on unchecked.

Nah, I know them well. If they have anything to take you down, they won't hesitate to post it. They are that hateful and demonic.

What's all these posts about misandrist, misogynist for, don't you guys have life outside nairaland, the energy you guys and girls use to argue irrelevant things is so alarming

You sabi them well well. I see some of them encrypting my moniker now and I am like, very good. Avoid me. We all know I like trouble. The ones that persist have numerous alternates to keep up.

Funny enough, it was the way they kept mentioning you that drew me to you. When Nlders single out someone for death, I try to look deeper. Same way I checked out Mynd.

I still remember that story.

I'm not sure there was a woman who was active back then that didn't collect?

It all began as harmless banter; I was part of it. We'd share jokes, yab people, and many were in on the fun. We organized programs, engaged in various games, and it was enjoyable until the attacks took a targeted turn. Initially, the yabing was for fun, and we would yab someone without even checking the username. But as it escalated into an agenda, the once light banter morphed into full-fledged attacks.

On any thread you opened, the comments from Poco, Coco etc would be replied with damning accusations.

I was like, 'Nah, this is getting personal.'

Poco was a gentle soul back then. She'd report and threaten with arrests, for where. It was chaotic. There was a particular guy with numerous alts; I feared he might physically harm her because his own too much.

Aunty grew weary of playing the nice girl and sprouted fangs, and surprisingly, it worked.

The language bullies understand is bullying.

Nairaland was a blast until known individuals invaded it with unknown usernames. I'm not sure if it will ever get better

Mynd na werey from the outset. He and I were targeted because we once modded the Romance section and gave them a very tough time. After I left, they came after me. Lol.

Funny enough I had someone check some of these people offline and behold, so many of them are nothing to write home about. There was one in particular owing so many loan apps but he was always online capping trash and forming online millionaire. I am not a vindictive person, else I would have gone down really dirty with them. Awon ashiere.

Person don dey old pass some things so nowadays I simply report to the mods and move on.

Thank you!

It’s so refreshing to see people who have been on this forum for a while and who have a good understanding of what’s actually going on speak up and say the truth.

Some of these newer accounts don’t even know what’s up. They just heard poco and coco are man haters and ran with it.

I checked one online and when they showed me his picture to confirm it is him, it matched what he posted on NL to show me he is made. His diction has heavy h-factor. Offline he sounds so confused and meek. There was one time they called him and I was right there. I wondered where all the bravado went to. You don't want to know his actual life. But on Nairaland he claimed Zenith Bank came to his house to update his NIN. At a point I was like, won't this one die of debt over legal fees. My conscience come dey bite me sef.

Na babes wey dey fall for their lies I pity.

Indeed person done dey old. They shouldn't sha mistake it for cowardice. An old woman never forgets the dance of her youth.

They can fool many people, but they can't fool everyone. The newer accounts are same people. They just want you to think it is different people after you. There are not many new accounts on NL.

That one with the numerous alts is psychologically unbalanced. No jokes. He is the one who went around formulating different lies about female users on this forum. It was much later I discovered that he owned the alt behind the Ondo fuckathon story. By that time I was already too distracted with life offline to go after him.

Like you said, the only language bullies understand is the language of violence, but I believe the section can be sanitised with the presence of a no nonsense mod like Mynd, or someone who had their time the way I and sexkillz did back then. A mod wey no send their papa

God, I remember those people! I went after some of those people!

They've finally brought the campaign back to Nairaland. The decision to deal with misogynists has got them panicking. They've been running a campaign on Twitter (since last month) to try and change the admin's mind.

You have always handled them with the kind of maturity that leaves them frustrated and foaming at the mouth. Me, I don't have the patience and inclination. Since they want to be unfortunate, we will all be mad together. Nigeria is stressful enough as it is and my one little escape should not be made uncomfortable by some badly brought up, hopeless bastids
