I have observed some posts by Nigerians in this forum which, in my opinion, are too sensitive to be posted for non-Nigerians to see. One of such posts is this: Bad government instigate more crime

I understand that we, as Nigerians, have our challenges as a country and we also have our bad sides as well, but believe me when I say this: corruption and scams are not only peculiar to Nigeria.

We should consider the implications of certain topics we raise about us on this space. The world already holds unjustifiable stereotypes about us as Nigerians, thinking we are all scammers. Discussions like this coming from us will further validate their negative perception about us. You can imagine if the forum members stop dealing with Nigerians because of one scam story from a bad egg.

Let's not spoil the collective reputation of Nigerians in this forum with what we post or do.

Let's not wash our dirty linen in public.

Some topics should be limited to the Nigerian local board.
Op I think you're making a point here because it sounds crazy for someone should be spoiling or making the entire world to be having thathave negative perspective about nigerians, it doesn't sound good a lotat all.
However,
Members of the Niger local board should be more sensitive and careful to some certain things posted on the general board to avoid putting our global image at risk.
