For Daniel Houston to get worked up by a faceless forum shows that nairaland is not for him.


People that don't like divergent views or want their opinions to be accepted without confrontation don't life up to their full potentials. They are people pleasers.

Not giving 2 flying fvcks is what makes you an adult.

Good riddance

CASE CLOSED.

You know that is false, i don't hid or ban people for disagreeing with me or anybody here as long as its on topic and not insulting.

If dare you to point out any body or post i ban or hid unjustly you will never get one.

We need more moderators like you on Nairaland. This section is one of the sanest on this forum because of you. If we had more mods like you Nairaland will be a lot better than it currently is. I've been on the other end of the the divide and I know that modding is a thankless job, so keep doing what you're doing. Give no fvcks, take no shit and keep this section sane.

[s][/s]His farewell is not needed, i'm very disappointed with his behavior and next time someone opens a thread in this section i will moderate it differently and by that i mean not giving the op preferential treatment .[s][/s]

I have never moderated a thread so strictly since i become a mod about 8yrs ago. I banned a very single person derailing this thread, i hid so many posts even when Danielhouston replied rudely.

I locked this thread when the heat is too much and reopened it when he was ready to continue, i have never done this before.

He threatened to leave if i don't ban those attacking him and i did that, after few days he came back with the same bitterness rather than continuing his thread then he deactivated his account.

So my question to many of you is..what a hell do you people want me to do for King Danielhouston?

Are you people honestly suggesting that nobody has the right to disagree with him?

More than 99% of people here support him and openly compliment his work here but still he got worked up by just one percent of people who did not share his opinion, even when i ban those people and remove their posts still its not enough.

If you are intolerant to alternative view then public forum is not for you.


The same double standard and hypocrisy I highlighted but as expected my concerns were swept under the rug and my comment deleted, why ? Just to please a total stranger who turns out to be difficult to appease? ? Why do mods like you feel like kings just for the little power you wield? ?

Its a shame how you shamefully sided with the op(Daniel Houston) while whipping anyone who has a counter opinion harshly with bans ? How dare you man? What on earth do you feel like?

You were disappointed by DJ Houston? Exactly the same feeling I have about you

Absolutely nothing wrong with the forum that needs fixing, all public forum and social medias are the same, all we can do is moderate it and not allow one person to detect the dos and don'ts.


Why should a moderator delete a comment or ban a commenter just for countering an opinion?

It's a shame you are unwilling to acknowledge
some of the problems plaguing this forum

If we can just read through with open mind and not jump on the bandwagon of “he cannot take different opinion because people disagree with him” we will see that there is more to it. Why did Justwise have to hide many comments if they were just different opinions? Whether we like it or not there was a personal propaganda to chase the OP away. Some even opened a fake account just to attack the op. How can you call it disagreement when they are not offering any information, except to attack him? Same thing has happened on other travel threads. People hide behind different opinion to derail the thread and cause havoc until the op is frustrated. You can disagree without making it hateful. Why did someone have to call him Hitler? I’m just pained because I really enjoyed this thread as a ghost reader. Sigh

Could you believe Daniel Houston called me "a toxic person" just for disagreeing with him? You can verify it by checking previous pages. So dude just got what he bargained for and that he reacted very immaturely later was beyond annoying . Not to mention how the mod embarrassingly sided with the and also brutally clamped down hard on people who disagree with op, all in an effort to appease DJ Houston. Shameful

Ok now sweetie, we all saw what you did on this thread. You called his thread the most toxic and boring thread you ever read on NL. You accused him of telling fake stories. You attacked his personality and he never replied to you. Other people called you out. The moderator had to remove your comments because you were extremely rude on purpose. I never saw where the op replied to you. He only told someone not to give you attention and protect their energy. Let’s not do this. The proof is still up there! Honesty!

I only disagreed with him, which is perfectly fine. I was never rude nor disrespectful. that you only choose to ignore facts and trying hard to asslick DJ Houston is ridiculous.

You don't have to modify your comment, you've already muddied the water, so no need. And all this says a lot about you and the kind of person you are. Next time just see my comment, mind your business and pass.

Please lets stop crying over spilt milk.. Op has left the thread and NL as a whole (it is painful though). He isn't gonna post again. We remain grateful to him for the info he shared over the past weeks. They will still be useful in the nearest future.

....and lets free the mod. The guy tried his bęst. I'm sure he never wanted the thread to go South, being the reason for the preferential treatment he gave to Daniel.

Playing the "blame game" and unnecessary dragging of this "exit" matter won't do us any good. Daniel chose to deactivate his account of his own accord!

Life goes on.

Modify what? How can I modify a comment you already quoted. You came here accusing the moderator of banning you without a just reason and acting like a victim. When you were indeed a troublemaker and were only interested in starting a fight here, even when people ignored you. You made rude comments which were deleted. Now you want to tell lies and play the victim like many others. Have a good day.

I don't really think one can justfiably describe the moderator as being biased. Rather than actually pandering to the OP's views, the MOD was considering the greater-good of the quality of the information being passed to the generality of the readers. I believe he was guaging the pulse of the readers and decided to let the OP off on several occasions so that people might benefit.

Honestly, I wished Danielhouston could have allowed some dissenting views to ride, and ignore them. Since he chose to debate a few of those views, he should have just allowed some comments that weren't going well to just fizzle out, while he continues his narrations.

Well, there is no need to delete the thread. The information provided will continue to make a good reference materials for interested folks. 5-10 years down the line, a more mature Danielhouston may well check up this thread again, and laugh out loud at himself for taking life and criticisms so seriously! Other commentators will probably appraise themselves the same way about any unwholesome comments they made on this forum in some years to come.

Some of us now at near middle age or older, do clearly recognise the immaturities displayed by our younger selves and laugh ourselves silly. It's all part of growing up!

Overall, let's us all learn to use non-offensive words and expressions, while engaging with others with differing points of views. A fair degree of tolerance by all would be most welcome!

Long live Nairaland!

The insults have started to come in and it won’t end. Why can’t the admin close the thread as it is all over? Isn’t it more work for the moderator to continue moderating a thread that is over? All we have now is unnecessary comments and blame games. For how long?

Were you not the one pleading and begging him to provide you with Asylum information on this thread? You were one of the people asking all the questions and sleeping on this thread. You even cursed people for trying to derail the thread and accused the moderator of supporting the derailers. After getting what you want from the OP it is now “to hell with him”. Some of you need prayers.
yes i did and i also plead with him to stay check on it but it looks like we can't do without him so i stopped pleading

Why hijack another man's ship if you can build your own. You sounded nice and intelligent in your previous posts but this qouted post of Yours is foul-smeling...curried with envy and spiced with jealousy and hate.
we know his stories are not perfect, neither is he, but we appreciate his sincerety and commitment.

We don't pretend to not see his subtle weaknesses, but we love him like that, he is only human, so are we too and we perfectly understand.

Please let him finish what he started in peace, and maybe start your own thread if you feel you are a better writer and social manager.

This was an excellent thread and it is inevitable that it will get invaded by a few trolls. It's a good thing the OP has deactivated. The last few posts he made seems to suggest that he is mentally vulnerable. It's better he deactivated before his mental health is worsened by what goes on in a faceless forum like Nairaland.
