Hassan6734 is banned from Somalia Online.

Hassan6734 is banned for repeatedly breaking our rules.

Fabregas_Bruv is banned for repeatedly using foul language on the forum.

**********Cadow-charles, the next time we see you using vulgarity on this forum, we will have no choice but to ban you. This is your final warning! Please respect the rules of the website and stop the insults and the personal attacks. Please read the golden rules of the website if you have questions. Thank You************

MARX, the glitch is now solved. We don't quite know why your profile data was corrupted like that after we thought this issue was solved a while back. Please let us know if you are still seeing that error again. Thank You!

Quality is important. We will not tolerate individuals who ignore our golden rules. The ban list will be updated regularly. Dr. Ligle

*******this is the third time we saw Qalbi-Adayg insulting other nomads. We have no choice but to ban this individual who made a habit out of afxumo and personal attacks *************

nomads, this was an unplanned outage caused by hard drive failure, the timing of which was not of our own choosing. Apologies for the inconvenience. we are still trying hammer out few glitches. Bare with us if you don't mind ...

Nomads, we had a meltdown of our dedicated unit and recovery was tedious and not pleasant as so much of drive data was corrupted. Recovery from backup was arduous but now complete. Please do let us know if you are having problems with viewing certain sections, posting on some forums, reading your PM or user data (ratings, post count, etc). Asalamu Alaykum.

Our brother Macruuf went on a short trip to Nairobi. I skimmed through old threads from three individuals as per Macruuf's note to Admin and I must say I am disgusted. To those who have been taking advantage of Macruuf's situation, I am giving you a serious warning; please respect the tradition of SOL and stay civil. Attacking nomads, calling them names, mentioning clan names, using vulgarity or running around the forum with indecent conversation will not get you anything but a ban from SOL. Your insults and attacks will get reviewed no matter when. We keep checking old threads because we don't have the luxury of editing things live. The record is out there for us to review at a later time. Again nomads, please respect the forum and stop violating SOL rules. PS: The ban thread will be updated.

Layzie, Marcus, Faynuus, Nephtys please respect the rules of the website and quit making both direct and veiled personal attacks against one another. This silly war of words is getting out of control and is compromising forum quality. I will personally block all four usernames from SOL if the insults against other nomads don't stop. This is the last time I am going to give a warning on this pathetic "groupie" stuff. Kala xishooda oo ixtirimaaka isugu dedaala. Is jiid-jiidadka aan micnaha lahayn joojiya. Hadii aad khalad kala gasheen, fadlan isa saxa oo ku xarbiya inaydinaan xeerka SOL u degsan ka dul tilaabsan sidii ciyaalkii. NOTE: I am astounded to see grown-up nomads involved in the same silly "groupie" politics that we saw in the early 2000s. C'moon, this is 2008. Odeyaal iyo Habro sidii ilmo yar-yar isla ficiiltamaya waa ayaan darro. This topic is closed.

Nomads, please respect the rules of the website. No personal attack please. None will be tolerated. ********Didi Kong is banned from SOL for using vulgarity and insulting other nomads. *****

Ebyan and Wisdom_Seeker, you are both banned from SOL. You've brought your immature squabbles here more than once, and it is time to put it to an end. Good luck.

Guys, let us stop the insults and the childish name-calling. Don't bring your filthy language here please. Moderators are getting tired of grown-ups acting so childish everyday. If you don't respect the rules of the site, we will have no choice but to block your access to this site. It is not fair that we have to clean up your vulgar, ignorant comments when you clearly understand the rules of Somalia Online. Thank You.

Site will offline for 30 minutes starting in couple of minutes. Please bare with us as we inspect our server case fans. Thanks
