Uniqueness of Nigerian Circle
Nigerian circle is one of a kind. It is different becuase it relies majorly on Nciers (Nigerian Circle members) to run it. Members are allowed to Post articles, news, comments, videos, announcements etc. All these are then approved by a seperate body which helps keep the standard of nc. Your contribution to nc (Nigerian Circle) does not go in vain as you acquire nc Points (Nigerian Circle Points) for your efforts.

Whats are ncPoints?
These are points you acquire while you are on the site. You can acquire points from the following : Making shoutouts, posting on forum, submitting an article, submitting an event, submitting a slang, commenting on members profile, rating members topic, commenting on slangs and articles submitted, logging in, inviting members using our invite form etc. You can also use your NC points to buy more shoutouts, delete bad ratings on your topic, delete comments on your feedback, get your own personal color for posts in forum, get your own personal backgroud for your profile, acquire tickets to events and much more. once you acquire ncPoints you need to claim them else they will just be piling up in our ncPoints Bank. You should regularly check your ncPoints by going to Accounts >> ncPoints to access the ncPoints area.

Posting in the forum
Posting in the forum is the most common way of communicating with other members. Our policy is free speech for all but we also realise that good conduct is very important. Due to some events in the past we now have a monitoring team overlooking all posts. No vulgar language is allowed, no virtual bullying, abusive language, discrimination, touts, slurs, racism or any form of bad behaviour will be tolerated. Members will receive a 2 warning after which they will most likely be banned by the Elders of the forum
