The hustle is very real fa..... lol well I kinda have a thing for people finding their daily bread as long as no laws are broken its all good men.

If you have ever been in a place of hunger you will never ever, look down on anybodys hustle, as long as it is legal and they are not stealing or doing olosho.

They will not only have my respect but support.

I do not expect everybody to see things from my perspective so its alright if you dis-agree.

It is just a social media platform and regardless that I come here to read and learn, I would put the need for others to earn a living before that luxury.

1BABYSHOESNG has spammed the whole section with adverts.Why cant You compress your adverts in one thread instead of All these.
Royalroy,pls look into it.

Ogbeni leave matter. It is this kind of reasoning that has turned Nigeria into the shithole it is today. When people refuse to do the right things, obey rules and regulations and follow laid down procedures, we have an environment conducive for the establishment, growth and nuturing of chaos, disorderliness and total fuckery.

Nairaland rules 1, 6 and 18 states categorically that users should create and post topics in the right section and not fracking spam the forum. All these adverts have made this section a hot mess that puts people off from visiting. The OPs complaints is akin to the suffering Lagosians suffered for years before Fashola took the bull by the horns and cleared Yaba, Oshodi, Tejuosho, Ojuelegba etc and restored a semblance of sanity to these areas. Prior to this these areas were congested, jam-packed, filthy, disorganised and every other negative adjectives you can think of. UNILAG is my alma mater and I always HATED passing through Yaba because of how rowdy that place was. Thank God for Baba Fash who didn't allow sentiments to stop him from doing the right thing, vis clearing off street trading and indiscriminate parking that made these areas hell on earth for Lagosians.

The first world nations we admire so much and are sleeping in their embassies here to hustle their visas (including the Canada you currently reside in) were not built on sentiments. Discipline, courage, accountability and obedience to rules were part of what got them to the positions they occupy in the global scheme of things. Nairaland is a microcosm of Nigeria where users are disregarding rules, posting their ads anyhow and anywhere, spamming the forum and typically being the undisciplined Nigerians they are. Try this _shit in Reddit and see if your account is not permanently banned.

There are sections dedicated for advertorials but no, they must come to this section and dot the cyber landscape with their scams and spams.

Anyway, the blame lies solely on the admin and moderator. RoyalRoy sometimes disappears for weeks on end leaving this section at the mercy of traders, porn_ vendors, trolls, spammers, copy and paste bloggers and other members of the Allied Nuisance.

Justwise transformed Travel section to the most organised section on Nairaland, and if this forum had one mod like him in every section, Nairaland will be a more entertaining and educating site to visit.

Long story short, shove the sentiments aside and stop supporting rubbish.

Umm, this is awful. Pollution to my eyes. If you look at the threadstarter all the threads on that list are from one person. I see other people with advertising threads as well but many of these threads are being posted by this person.

Who is the mod here?

the hustlers [as you call them] are just uncouth nuisances
i see them on whatsapp groups as well. sending 40 pictures at a go of some useless item no one is interested in buying. I ALWAYS call them out, at which point they start pretending they do not know it is rude, while telling me i can contact them to buy.

i ask them what would happen in the group, if everyone decided to be like them, flooding peoples phones with unsolicited messages

it is the same thing you see on regular nairaland threads where betnja agents and adult website admins spam every FP topic with messages

i live in festac, and i see the same behavior play out in the real world. every single corner is turned to a parking lot for used cars, or a flea market/bazaar. the entire place is an eyesore.

A person who is unprofessional in the way he markets his wares, will also be an unprofessional business person. the moment your hustle makes you a public nuisance, there is a problem.

the end result of this nonsense is that people will leave this forum, and the hustler will , like a virus, have to find some other avenue to spread to, pollute and destroy.

These examples you give are quite funny.
It is the responsibility of the government to provide an enabling environment for people to do business.

In a society where everyone is their own local government, you generate your own light, water, even road and fence(security) what do you expect.

I am yet to see a business owner on this thread supporting your idea , I am sure because you are a salary earner it looks to you like everything is okay.

The Nigerian mode of living is the survival mode, the same mode of living animals in the jungle survive by, the average man on the street is not hustling to buy a car or build a house, they are hustling to feed not even themselves but their children.

If these people find a way to make some money and not carry guns please try and respect their choice and how dugged they have become in earning an income in a legal way.

The Nigerian environment operates like a jungle so dont expect the average person to pretend it is heaven , it is not.

and who are you to tell him to give it up?

calgaryFriend:

Typical Nigerian.. Always giving up.

czarina:
Abeg get out.

Logobenzz:
come and make me na..
Bloody dictator.
Always feel like they call the shots.
Smh!

calgaryFriend:

You have made an objective observation, then have the mod contact the person and let them know they are overdoing it.
I do not have a problem with a few business threads here and there.

If it's just one person spamming thats a different issue.

theButterfly:
The mentions here alone should alert the mod to the thread. He himself should've done his job w|o being called to. I don't care anymore.

czarina:
Nwanneni, fuvk off

czarina:
Oya, keep flogging the issue. Typical "Calgarian".

Logobenzz:
Nwanneni,Yes.
Bleep off?not really!
I wonder why you had to show me you were raised in a police barrack with general latrine toilet to pass a message
Tells me how your thought process is like

calgaryFriend:

It's just an intellectual discourse, people cannot always see t hings from the same angle.

By exchanging views with people particularly t hose who have a different opinion than you, you get to expand your horizon.

It's one of the few ways to become a little more emancipated.

No need to bicker about this.

czarina:
There's nothing intellectual about the "discourse" with you. You're way too sentimental for one BTW.

Logobenzz:
I stand with you on this.
9-5 people always feel their definition of life is ideal.
It's a pity honestly.smh!
One hennessy for you baba
