As A New Member to NaijaPals, I am still navigating around the site, making observations, etc. My first impression was that it was strictly for those who reside in Naija only. However, After Browsing, I finally came across someone who was here U.S. As I read the Forum topics I can't help but wonder if the site is Age Restrictive??? Is the site geared for the target age group of 18-24 only? Does anyone know what the original intent of the Site Owner is in regards to Age Specific groups? Just out of curiosity, I'd like to know....Perhaps some of the members who've been here for a while can answer.
My 2nd questions is: How many members make up this site? Does the Admin offer a Suggestion/Feedback option for members?
So far these are a couple of questions I have. I welcome responses that are positive and free from any marginalization. Since I didn't see a Thread devoted to members being able to Post random musings/questions I created this one. Thanks Thaigboprincess

Over to you guys in admin. Tell us what in the history of journalism or internatioal communication the meaning of moderation really is what are the little ones so interested in knowing more about their country of origin picking up from the so called adults . ??

who told u dat NP is for only those living in Naija? 2ndly, to the best of my knowledge, all sites dat contain adult materials/topics are age restrictive to minors 3rdly, we ar abt/ova 200 000 or so, i'm nt really sure. 4thly, the idea of "target age group of 18-24 only" is jst in ur head, cuz there are lots ppl on this site older/younger dan dat age bracket.
2.0.

Mr. Toks, I think you got defensive for no reason. Nothing is in my head. if you read what I posted they were questions.

Hmm I take it there isn't an option for Suggestions/Feedback on this site? Or if someone knows where that is please let me know. I noticed the time is significantly off, are the owners or administrators based outside of the U.S.?

Who do you work for? Are you happy with naijapals? Why is it important to you to know where the owners and administrators reside?

We all know dguy is THE man here. So who cares about the rest?
IM now a member of this side for several years and i like it, if you read proper it will say Nigerians and friends so im a friend as im not a Nigerian.
To me i have learned so much here. Ok there might be some difference here from time to time but thats just the fun of the side and you just have to take this or leave it. If there are minors here its up to the parents to supervise them, this is simple out of the hands of the founders, kids are clever enough to change there age.
Advice to you Just have fun learn from this side about Nigerian culture etc and enjoy this site and dont take it apart before you even start here.
Cheers

Some of the Questions put forward earlier were answered by Toks E and D-guy am sure a simple email to them would guide anyone right if there is more to know .
Indeed a feedback link would be very healthy. Unless you let people know . some of these things do not come automatically as there are different standards everywhere.
This is the NET and u can hardly guard it to your satisfaction . Once you sign up and agree to the disclaimer the onus is on you to ensure your wards aren't exposed to unwanted materials
If you can be an igbo princess then you are definitely Nigerian and this is one of the best things that have come out of Naija in recent times . I know of other sites but not as groovy . Beef up security a little more perhaps . YES they can !

Omatu and Princedee you two amuse me. Displaying Paranoia only makes you look like you are devoid of responding in a normal manner. Seriously, I'd advise you to both Work on Inter/IntraPersonal Communication Skills. Otherwise, you give the impression that you suffer from a Schizoid Disorder. Since when does it Become a Crime to ask questions? Oh, I forgot that at times back home one may be subjected to "Jungle Justice". And I am Proudly NAIJA!

Igbo Princess, what exactly is wrong with schizoid disorder? Is mental illness a crime? I do not have such disorders. There is nothing wrong with asking questions. I asked you questions as well. Answer them.
