1) They add you to a mailing list without your permission and they refuse to remove you when you ask them to do so.

(2). They pretend the inanimate handle they created is a human being with emotions.

5) The spectacle of African website operators and their writers who pretend that they have a copyright in material that they lifted without permission, acknowledgement, or authorization from the original authors and creators.

6) To know that a website operator copied and edited the code for his website from other sources, usually well known sources, and then to watch him labor under the misapprehension that employing all manner of strange and user-exasperating scripting and tricks would prevent �his� site from being copied and edited by others, when indeed all that he has succeeded in doing is to create serious wahala to legitimate users and render most common browsers prone to crashes at his site. Then,
7) To know that all that he has done could be defeated in seconds, flat.

8)They will write concretely fierce on the internet as if they have guts, but in practical terms, they crawl behind closed doors to feed from the crumbs of the caliphates and "generals" in Aso Rock.

9) The BiafraNigerian yahooligans and others, as they practice their belief that whatever their desire may be, if they put a great deal of emotion into it and state the desire online, it will come to pass on the ground in BiafraNigeria.

11) They go to the Internet and from there they copy audio recordings onto cassette tapes. They take the tapes back to Igboland and playback the tapes in a cassete player. They then lie and deceive our hapless Igbo and Biafran people, telling them they are listening to a radio broadcast from Washington DC.

12) They create a free yahoo mailing list and convince themselves that they have therefore formed an organization, and the list owner who created the list has thereby become the leader of every person in the list.

They claim to be tough and hard, hard men, but deep down they are sweet and mellow--can't even hurt a bird.

17) You know or you should have known that an original Voice of Biafra exists and has a website located at http://voiceofbiafra.com. Yet, you go ahead and create another website and you call it "Voice of Biafra International" (VOBI) while also purporting to make radio broadcasts therefrom. Then, you turn around and pretend that your "VOBI" is older than or has superior rights to the original Voice of Biafra.

19) They pretend that they are averse to advertisements on Biafra-related websites. But, they rely on the advertisement-ridden Yahoo mailing lists as their primary mode of communication in their "Biafra actualization" activities.

20) Your uncle who is older than your father goes online and tells his friends that he was born in 1969. Then, when he visits your house, he complains to your father that you are disrepectful to him, your elder, even though you were born in 1968.

21) A website operator tells us the hokum that if he permits persons with strong pro-Biafra views to air those views on his website, advertisers will withdraw their ads from his website and he will be forced to shut down; and therefore,
22) that persons with pro-Biafra views should be banned from websites that cater to BiafraNigerians.
BNW has established that advertisers are just as willing to accept revenues from people that call themselves Biafrans as people that call themselves Nigerians.

23) They will tell you all sorts of stories and their experiences in combat during the Biafra War but yet they cannot recall which particular sector they were engaged in battle.
24) They will tell you they are Biafrans to the core, but take a close look and you will find out they are all job-seekers trooping to Aso Rock and waiting for their own turn.

25) They copy a bunch of articles from egbeomoduduwa1.com, kwenu.com, vanguard, champion, etc., and they re-publish the articles on their own website. Then,
26) they recycle the names of the authors of those articles in a list on their website and call that list "Our elite team of contributors." Posts: 162 | Registered: Mar 2001

29). They have abandoned their families and responsibilities for the battles in cyberspace.

What else can I say? When the tyrant Sylvia had me banned for life, none of you came to my rescue. I had to beg to a point of falling on my knees for a fair-minded Webmaster to reinstate my posting privileges. Now that I made it back without losing a limb, I'm cautious and watching the bad guys.
Anyway, here's another internet irritant:
30) They deliberately make misleading and inflammatory remarks, and when caught they say "I'm Sorry!"
My name is Mota Ogallala Tekumseh, the proud native-American!

You were banned? Are you sure? So I take it you received an e-mail from the Webmaster giving you a reason for being banned? if so can you send me a copy via PM.
As to why we did not come to your rescue when you were allegedly banned, how can we when we did not even know that you were banned.
My friend go back to the main forum and start doing your thing. See you there.
