Good Day Dear Blog fam…
This is the first time I’m sending in a post for publication on this blog and all I’m asking for is not your advice but your vote.
I want aunty Eya to put it to a vote, yes… I only noticed recently that our comments are now being gated. I remember just one person advising that
on the blog this week, and now we have it.
Amongst the reasons I love being here is that:
(1) My comments gets on immediately
(2) We don’t have to beg before our comments are posted unlike other blogs
(3) This is the new age communication and information travels instantly and real-time, even Facebook doesn’t gate comments.
Note: On other blogs where comments are gated all sorts of stuff’s are eventually posted and all sorts of battles and bickering still takes place.
Gating our comments will end up reducing our communication time, it’ll make you spend more time on a single post and it will most-deff create an “I don’t care” attitude towards some post considering the gating.
If you feel the same way like I currently do, please vote for “free-commenting”. Our strength must be in our “unity in diversity”. We must “disagree to agree & agree to disagree”.
And please Aunty Eya, if this vote fails to pass note that the day my comment(s) get barred of delayed I go vex, I go para. In fact, I go create “Blog Boko Haram” just to fight that injustice.From:
Ben Ehimen Iyoha (Ace Bentley)
**Your vote can be the winning vote.
Please use the comment section to vote. Counting will be done tomorrow.

yup am in support of the free comment,yesterday I was somewhat annoyed when after commenting it took aunty Ojay 20years to post d comments,and I never saw mine.
If u're doing it to curb the hateful comments,I'll suggest u delete dem once they appear here. to me I even love it more when am attacked,feels gud to know and giving someone a reason to spare a thought or pay attention.
Ace my Oga at the top,u got my vote. Domo sir
~BONARIO~says so via NOKIA3310
I love the fact that my comments show immediately on ths blog. And I think the hateful comments directed@ the post shld not be deleted, cos some pple just come here to read comments n cool off after a hectic day.
Comments also brings traffic to d blog, but there are exceptions ,when a comment gets too personal or is directed@ another person's comment,it shld pls be deleted.
Thanks for supporting this my brother from another mama… My vote also goes in for free commenting.

Free commenting please.
Yes o! Free commenting especially because of emergency cases.
Thanks Ace for this, i definitely vote for FREE COMMENTS.
Aunty Eya, i was planning to e-mail you but i guess i might as well air my views on this post. sorry if i'm diverting from the main am of this post. i noticed you deleted Ahdaisy's post yesterday just when i was about to read it. when i checked i also noticed u had deleted the post about 2facedonating his trad weddng stuffs to charity.
I dont know why u deleted those post but i'm guessing people were at each other's throat. Why do you have to delete posts because pple are bickering at each other? if they argue and disagree on every single post you put up will you delete all the posts? if so, then i dont think you are ready to blog. i love your blog because i feel we are a close knit family here. people disagree to agree and even blood sisters argue and have fights. we dont have to agree on every single thing. we have different upbringing, attitude and perspective so it's expected in a forum like this that pple will have different views and some people could take it personal. the thing is people have already formed an opinion about certain people here and deleting posts will not change that opinion. their disagrements and dislike for each other will always play out on every post you put up. moreover, this blog is a tonic for high BP. i personally love reading the comments cos they keep me sane. #nuffsaid#
Exactly my broda Ace!!! I support d fight against gating our comments,its so annoying!! I dnt comment on other blogs cos of this "waiting to approve comments" and yes it makes an issue linger 4 too long…Minyl Aunty Eya,u really dnt knw what gud u've done or hw u blessed and touched many pple's lives, pls and pls dnt let dis over sabi pple make u do things dat r not necessary… I undastand sum pple have been cowards but doz of of us dat still stand 4 d truth appreciate evry bit of u…ok,what happens when ur kids r around and u hv lil or no tym to approve d comments we go wait taya na..pls let's nt spoil dis fun here,biko! Ema abinu,eehhmm…I dunno d hausa version •ː̗̀=))ː̖́•ℓσℓ•ː̗̀=))ː̖́•….
Oya Nuff said… Bye
Free comments
No gating pls
I vote "FREEE COMMENTS"
Eya pls free our comments.
You cannot stop people from bickering and bullying, its up to us to be matured minds.
i believe most of us are mothers/wives/responsible adults, lets not act in any manner that we cannot in front of our kids.
Anyway, people pls dont frustrate Eya my darling ooo.
#FREEOURCOMMENTS.
****Mufasa Said
Free comments pls Oo°˚˚˚°!
Free comments
free comments oo
Free comments o, aunt Eya!
No gating. Free comments. Delete d very offensive ones.
Funny enough, I enjoy d drama that goes wit d blog atimes.some are really funny. I'll also advice u do more food posts than cases.its thoes advice posts that brings d tension.
I VOTE NO GATING.
I'm also in support of free commenting, I think just like in everyday life and interaction ur bound to meet people that their opinions differ from urs it's left for u to decide what advice u will take. I know some people can be rude and offensive but this is an online community you should not take to heart everything people say after all they don't know the first thing about you and are probably just making assumptions. If someone makes a comment u don't like just ignore them. I believe we should all just try to "agree to disagree once in a while".
Thanks
Free comments pls!
Abeg open d gate 4 our comments make it dey enta…..lol
Free comments pls!
Free comments plz. Thx
Free comment pls
I used to be of the opinion that comments should be censored but I realised that there really is no point.
Like I said in an earlier post, there'll always be cyber bulling and it exists everywhere. The most we can do on here is to ignore such comments and keep it moving.
Agreed, people are entitled to different opinions but the fact that some people take it too far shouldn't be something that worries anyone. Not everyone you know in real life likes you so why let some unknown person on the internet get to you?
I vote for free comments as well. It makes for a free flow of dialogue. It's unfortunate that people sometimes go too far, but that's real life for you.
Just delete offensive comments ok?

Eya I vOte for GATIng of comments. Block them all and let us wait. Shey they were all asking for comment censoring here. Time don reach. Ntooooor!
Free comments pls
I VOTE FOR GATING!!!!!!
Please GATE the comments and do away with all trash and hate ones before posting.
Madam Eya, keep the comments with you, you can boil them all and wack no wahala.
I vote for FREE commenting! It was like blog commenting utopia for me when I discovered this blog. Apart from the wonderful recipes which were the main attraction for me. People need to learn or be mature enough to deal with cyber cowards – IGNORE them cos what they are really seeking is attention. When they don't get it, they get bored and skedaddle. LIB, even with her gated comments, you still see people commenting at each other's throats. Believe me, the rancour is usually what attracts traffic to a post.
And for anyone feeling attacked on a post, I recently read somewhere that sticks and stones are only thrown at ripe fruit hanging on a tree in order to bring them down. No one bothers with the green, unripe fruit. So, if your comment gets maligned or attacked, rest assured that you must be doing something right! 🙂
With that said, as the blog owner, Eya, please feel free to delete any comment which is reasonably considered offensive or outright insulting.
I vote for freeeeeeeeeeee comments o Anty Eya. Free our comments jor
My wife and I VOTE FOR GATING.count this as two votes pls?
TOO MUCH FREEDOM IS BADt, GATING PLEASE.
Free comments biko
pls ooo we want free commenting..pple shld learn to be mature and be respectful towards each other even in the phase of disagreements. maybe they will learn that on this blog. pls count my vote oo…#free commenting…
Free commenting!!!!
Hahhah…where have I been since morning? Ace Bentley for President!!! I like your style joo.
Yes Aunty Eya, free comments pls. I have developed a good thick skin. Only delete comments that attack a person's person. Or comments that are very offensive to right thinking people.
Free comments pls
Free comments
Free commenting pls. I support that
Immediately I saw d post I opened immediately to come n vote for free comment. But thank God I was not disappointed as a lot of people r in my camp. I will still add my vote for free comment though we have already won.
Hey girl! How do u do? I saw ur post d other day where u were pouring out ur heart on someone that is stalking ur life. Well u shud learn from linda ikeji. That girl has d thickest skin I have ever seen. She will still post the comments where they abuse her d most. N trust me people send her threatening mails. So my advice is that u should learn to ignore. I know its not every one that can ignore but when people like that provoke u just thinking of people like linda n ignore them.
Cheers
Tope ur so on point.I vote free comment. Aunty Eya God bless you. Omo
I vote for gate comments.
Life is not just about attracting traffic to your blog…Every blog should have a particular design that it should take. Let Nobody compare your blog to Lindas…both of you are different and with different reasons for starting the blog. Who told you that you can't be sucessful if you don't do it Linda's way. Trust me,nothing can stop a succesful blog even if the comments are gated. The most important thing is that you are making a difference with your blog and one day people will look for a blog where different opinions are respected and there are no hateful comments and comments are decent,diverse and responsible and they will come to your blog. Just because LIB is sucessful and allows haters and damaging comment even to her person does not mean you should tow that path. I will still be here no matter what is agreed on,whether gated or not. Your blog is your story and your vision and trust me if it is bound to be a success nothing can stop it….Just do You. Just like in the real world,some people can take hateful comment and laugh at it,some will hear such and cry their heart out,while some will ignore you and keep positivity around…likewise blogs. There are enough blogs like Lindas out there,they allow hateful comments and yet they are not as suceesful as LIB because they chose a style that works for someone else without thinking if it will work for them. Keep your blog fresh,bring in new things,tips,hearty discussion, make it relatable and the sky is big enough to contain more than one person. Thanks. GLADDENED HEART
Some people think that blogs are avenues to voice out frustration building up in them but pls you need to see a therapist instead. Even at that,there are enough blogs to do that or go open a twitter page and start tweet thuging people but don't think every blog is for that. Aunt Eya pls delete comments that are hateful and attack a persons fam. I see some cyber thugs have started infiltrating here.
Free commenting gini. Sssmmmh. Gated comment joor. When there are no rules and regulations,there will be jungle justice. A line should be drawn jare. Meanwhile this is not a gossip blog.
I vote for free comments pls. Some people come here to learn and as well also see what others have to say or contribute. Even though some people have to learn that whatever anyone writes or contributes is just his/her opinion and it's not being forced down anyone's throat. So pls let's allow everyone have their own say without attacking them, this isn't a debate competition. That's my own opinion sha.
I vote for free comments joor aunty Eya..stop deleting comments except dey are too nasty.. If I may ask why did you delete adhaisay's post?
FREE COMMENTS PLS…in caps,me and my unborn triplets. ooo so count it as four.*shinesteeth*
Abi ooooo
Since pple are emboldened by the cloak of anonymity to make deeply offensive comments, another thing you could consider is to somehow bar anonymous posts.
Pple could use a cyber handle and not necessarily post with their real names, that way we would be able to attach names to comments and folks might think twice b4 resorting to verbal abuse.

Free Comment ooooo
Abeg Aaunty Eya, FREE COMMENT!!!!!
The chikoo
I vote for Free commenting
I took down Ahdaisy's post because she regretted it and felt that the more it stayed up the more people would want to comment. She expected the Anon would apologize but after a while, when she didn't see any apology, she asked that it be taken off.
Btw, I just saw an apology to her on this post.
Freedom…
Comments @ the speed of light…
Aunty eya, Free Comments pls!
But here is what I'll suggest,just like virtuoso up there, Remove the option of anonymous comments,cus I've noticed most of the bile comes from ppl who use the cloak of anonymity to start wahala.
If u must comment,use a handle! That way we have a name (fictional or not) to attach to a comment! That way I'm sure the hate comments will reduce!
God bless u aunty eya! God is ur strength!
