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 strong 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.

1. is regulated by the Lagos State Lotteries Board with the company name: Get Altitude Nigeria Limited.
2. Merrybet Gold ltd is regulated by Lagos State Lotteries Board. Seun I was amazed when i saw, Sports betting are fundamentally fraudulent" main reason why u had to suspend "our betting thread which over the years, have moved from season1-season10 some one should correct me if i am wrong, i think this move is undemocratic, unnecessary, and out of place.

To start with u will agree with me that sport betting is legal in Nigeria. so why will u use the word "fraudulent" are u saying the Lagos State Govt, who regulates these Companies are supporting illegality?? only u can answer that, abeg those political ads u run for your site during election na towards "legitimate entrepreneurship and finance" even when u know say politics no epp any body for Naija...money made via traffic wen those threads (betting)wer running abeg please donate them to charity..since the source of the income was bad, minus and plus, calculate and remove such... wonder why u should be the accuser, defender, judge, over your own case.. forget those likes over thr u are 'Mr. Seun who owns Nairaland' do you expect less, no mtter the post, suggestion wethr good, or bad, you will take the shine (fact). betting is an individual thing and for pple who are over (18) so why call it fraudulent wen it is even recognized by the government.. it is only in business i know they use 'investors' as recognized by u.. only if you know the kind of fun we catch on those threads i wont judge you.. your signature speaks better '''''''''I'm not very active on Nairaland right now''''''''' u are not active yet you went to close an active thread that has moved from season1-9,10 over the years. U need to know we catch a lot of fun from those threads than the joke sectin sef, nairaland no be betting site now so why carry sand enter garri now....why u know ask questions, from pple wei dey use the thread egbon, instead ...if people don't make money why do they still ply you are quilty of rule 7. of Nairaland " Don't say, do, or THREATEN to do anything that's detrimental to the security, 'SUCCESS', or 'REPUTATION' of Nairaland". closing that merrybet and other betting bla bla, thread is detrimental to the success of Nairaland...

JerryQ:
Let me first try to clarify something. Forex trading and Sports betting are two opposites. We don't bet in FOREX we trade intelligently. I have been trading FOREX for 8 years now and its one of the best things that has happened to me. Though i made a mistake at the start by trading on borrowed money. It took me the next 2 years to trade out that money and paid back the debt. The problem we had from FOREX trade in Nigeria then was we were armatures in a professional biz.I had to start all over when i saw my real state to learn from those that were trading profitably. This took years of learning. Finding the right person to teach you is not easy. i now have friends world wide that have helped me in my profitability. So please never think FOREX as betting or gambling. for the record i don't do sport betting, never and will never God helping me because i hate gambling. A picture says a thousand words. ( please don't write to me here asking me to teach you, i wont see it most likely cos i might be studying something profitable in a FOREX forum)

lestat:
Frankly your point doesn't make any sense! Is sport being or forex trading illegal ?? No not in any country in the world!
I think what we have here is an outright abuse of perceived influence because you think you have something against the said practices there by you want users to justify an action you have already clearly decided to make.
Now is the ban on sports betting and forex trading beneficial to your website users? No it's not!
Because your user base are not the major clients of sports betting and forex comoanies.
Infact I don't know anyone who has gotten good sports betting tips from your website.
Infact your website is so insignificant in the sports betting genre because I know for a fact that the major players don't advertise here as they do on other sites like Linda Ikeji and Bella naija.
If trully you care about nairaland users first take steps to curb the tribal hate and religious hate that your website activity encourages!
Don't come here and play the sympathetic cronner when in reality there's probably some other reason you want to ban these.
I guess maybe because they don't advertise with you?
Mr Seun take steps to curb hate posts that your website encourages these are doing more damage to the country than all the 100 naira my gateman looses every weekend to bet9ja.
