Why is it that ER Forum attracts disproportionately more Tigrai Tigrign folks?

Post by eden » 14 Apr 2020, 21:30

Just look at the threads opened on any given day, 80% belong someone that’s Tigrigna speaker.

This is an astonishing percentage indeed but what is the explanation? I’m genuinely curious, beyond curious.

Is it that they are over participating or the non Tigrai Tigringn of Eritrea and Ethiopia severely under participating? Should we blame them for forum being ridiculously skewed?

Fuzzy math!

There has to first of all exist a tigrai- tigrigni thingy, to be able to measure it.

That idea, at least in Eritrea, died when Wel- Wel gave it up!

Brother Deqi,

thanks for the warm welcome. You guessed it right. The death of the General is a fatal blow to our endevauer. It hurted me and many others and the sad part is that he was humiliated by our own people. to bad we still have weyanne brainwashed donkeys in Bahr dar to deal with but it is a good awakening.

I raised the question for a reason?

The reason is: if we are able to explain why the Tigrai Tigrign Eritreans and Ethiopians here account for the extremely high volumes of threads/ posts relative to the non Tigrai Tigrign Eritreans and Ethiopians, then the same explanations may point to the root causes of the dysfunction in Eritrea and Ethiopia.

Mind you, there are 15 non Tigrai Tigrign Eritreans and Ethiopians to 1 Tigrai Tigrign person on this earth.

Remember, for every 16 threads initiated, 14 come from Tigrai Tigrign forumers and only 2 from non Tigrai Tigrign. This is based on my conservative 80 percent assumption.

What is my point? Here’s my point: This forum can be taken as a simulation to investigate problems and come up with solutions on the ground for the two countries with population over 100 Millions.

Look, it’s not even that I’m criticizing one group. I mean, is the problem even the excessive participation by Tigrai Tigrign forumers or is the problem the serious lack of participation by the rest?

Honorable Jimmy,

Yes, sir!! Every citizen of the least important killil Tigray starting from Eden lowlanderu is tormented by my signature and we know that very well. By the way, there is not body like the snake Eden who got devastated really bad by the sudden passing of her beloved Zena...I remember when the Lowlanderu used to call little Zena as Nay Tselemti Haben. He is gone too early :lol: :mrgreen: :oops:

You advice is well taken, brother and I will skip my signature this time around. Because of the upcoming Easter Sunday Holiday, we might also consider to give this agame snake a special offer that Eden has been obsessed with "Tigrai Tigrign" for quite long time: Eritrean citizenship :lol: :mrgreen: :oops:

As per Honorable Jimmy's request!! :lol:
Signature is skipped for Eden's sake!!! :lol:

It’s not like ER Forum has always been dominated by Tigrigna speakers. Sure, many Tigrigna speaking participants were there always but on percentage basis, I don’t think it ever stood out as much as it has now. It’s beyond my comprehension 80 to 90 percent of threads on any given day come from those with one language background in a region with close to 100 different languages.

Why is it that ER Forum attracts disproportionately more Tigrai Tigrign folks?
Well there were many Ethiopians who were actively participated in civil discussions in this forum through out the years. Unfortunately, ER gradually became the battle ground of the Tigrai Tigrign families on both sides of Mereb river. Majority of Ethiopian participants got sick and tired of mebeshasheq, agg.ame this and agg.ame that. Whoever comes giving different of opinion is automatically an agg.ame. Yaballo of Borna is an agg.ame, saddaca of Agaro is an Agg.ame, revelations of Debre Berhan is an agg.ame, Zak of Dawale is an Agg.ame in the eyes of Agg.ames of the north side, of course.
So Ethiopians slowly started to abandon the site so ER to become Tigrai Tigrigns' fentezia house.

Eden,your maths stinks. You are counting a person who has no life at all except posting nonsense on ER as many people because he posts hundreds of nonsense in an hour. People have life Eden. On the other hand, you might have a tiny truth. Yes, recently Tigrena speakers have dominated ER. Those Eritreans who write feedbacks on ER seem to have a hatred — I use the word hesitantly — towards the Tigrean political elites. If you add Tarik to that group, it is a totally s different story. He wants the whole Tigreans to disappear from the face of the earth.

We had couple of good intellectuals here mostly from the amhara. But they don't post any more and also many of the oromo. Most of the debate here results into insults. The Eritrean tigray [deleted] for tat cyber war is entertaining though I laugh allot with the jokes here. Its just some times that people post starving people to score political points that's just inhumane.
