Hello Guys, Happy New Year To You All, I’ve been a member of this platform for a while and i decided to develop a simple app for it (its not a web view, uses an api), the main features of the app are

The purpose of this project is to promote the radar community.
I would like to ask for permission from the admin(s) if I can continue this project,
Thanks . @lordbanks, @xolubi
Big Cabal: See me see trouble o! How do you cope when these guys bring one improvement or the other to your product? I mean this happens almost every other day!
Nairaland welcome to the club! I just ignore them.
Big Cabal: Even when the suggestions makes sense?
Nairaland: Sense? What sense? Now I can see you’re a child. Let them go and build their own and make the sense there.
Big Cabal: Bro, this community thing is tough o.
Nairaland: Joker. Tough is when your moderation goes so badly, you cry yourself to sleep. And have series of nightmares where you’re falling into a deep river. Wake up to find that in your terror, you’ve wet the bed. That’s tough.
Lool.
That’s true actually; “Mr Nairaland” seems to be an expert on this.
Though I asked, I don’t think I was really expecting @lordbanks or @seyitaylor to come up and say, “Good one, son. You have our blessing.”
I’m sure no one is thinking of banning you. It’s a free world and the screenshot actually looks good, so well done as it appears to be decent work.
However, just thinking as a founder of a startup, if someone mentioned to me that they’re building an android and IOS app of my product, I would be intrigued as it raises all sorts of questions. Should I employ you? Should I release/rejig my road map? Warn you off? Bless your work and let you continue (I own website but you have ‘ownership’ over mobile)? So it’s not quite straight forward, I think.
Now admittedly, radar is not exactly the same (since it’s a community of some sorts) and over time it might be expected that members would play a key role. DuckDuckGo is a good example of a startup staffed almost entirely by former community members.
