Taken off of nextdoor here in las vegas hope I can live without it. Posted pictures of
TOLD ABOUT AND POSTED VIDEO
Dogs in the area off leash and craping on my lawn. That must be a no, no, bad idea. Many of the neighbors were pleased and joined in, after stepping in dog crap and being chased as they jogged. Shame, shame on me. I will now go to the HOA and see if it does any good. Also animal control to report the issues. Don't say anything negative or you are out no warning out you go. Hey nextdoor bye, bye, bye will miss you but after 75 years without you I can do it. You are like a bad dream byeeeeeeeeee

At first I thought this was an interesting app if you lost your puppy and were looking for a new mechanic then I realize it was just another way for them to sell advertising space and to put a bunch of loser lowlife no life people in charge of monitoring who puts one on Web. I actually ran an add for my garage sale and was told that I was running a business out of my house. I explained that I was moving out of the area and would be having three or four sales before finally gone. They actually sent one of their people to my house to check out the sale where he rudely and obnoxiously be rated me in front of people and sat in front of my car while he telephoned the Nextdoor app people to complain about me. Next the man sat in his car in front of my house and just stared at me. It was creepy. Next they booted me off and sent me a letter saying I was being put in timeout for couple of weeks to think about my sins against the next-door app. Seriously people its just another way to get your email addresses so they can advertise for local products at a profit and sell them to you. Do not fall for the scam they also ask for you to put a credit card upfront. Now why would they want to credit card? If you want to ever size something just use craigslist.

If you're not a LIBERAL or IMMIGRANT you're posts are BANNED! It's that simple... They are a 'no free/conservative/GOD/truth/thought speech' (unless you're with them) gang, who must get together every Saturday night and go over notes of 'America First' neighbors. And it's spreading like a wildfire. My X-college roommate said the same thing is happening in his city/state/neighborhood. Controlling each neighborhood like an outpost, one city at a time.

I don't think who gets censored, suspended, has their post removed, has anything to do with conservative, liberal, white, black or brown, or whatever, at least from my experience.
I am on my second suspension, and it seems like anyone who doesn't like the opinions you express can usually get it removed and even get you suspended no matter what your opinion. I seriously doubt whether they really consider the content and whether it violates any of their Guidelines. It is just easier to remove anything which someone decides to report. Actually, it seems to me that these Guidelines are so inclusive that almost anything can be construed as violating at least one of them.

Day one, my experience is these people are rich elderly crackers that aren't happy just living in a nice neighborhood, they need to control something or someone and cry the whole time they are rooting their nose up your corn-hole. The moderator is a clown and chooses to only display what he sees fit so forget about responding to any false posts unless you are part of his illuminati. These tools need to get over themselves.

DON'T WASTE YOUR TIME, IT DOES NOTHING BUT DIVIDE NEIGHBORS!

I have just been blocked by nextdoor after having been signed up from the time they began in 2011. They have decided that they require my full name instead of the initials i use in spite of their own policy:
"Notable exceptions:
We recognize that some people are primarily known by something other than their given first name:
It would be acceptable for the catcher of the San Francisco Giants to use the name "Buster Posey" rather than Gerald Posey, the name on his birth certificate.
It would be acceptable for the football player "J. J. Watt" to use his initials as his first name, since that is how he introduces himself."

When women have abusers and stalkers or even live alone, they would rather not put their full or correct last name. Only recently a "neighbor" that has PM many women to harass them was called out on his behavior. All of a sudden after 2 yrs my last name is problem. Which means he was trying to research me. He has already shown up at 2 neighbors houses unannounced and has mailed a burnt card to someone else, all who have called him out on his behavior. I cannot follow what is going on and how they are handling the situation on the site because I refuse to put my real last name. I suppose after some people get hurt or worse will their rule on real last names change. Like they think all neighbors are good and just want to chat with you. This isn't Mayberry.

My personal opinion of Nextdoor: Seems like a great tool for officials and HOAs to keep tabs on residences. Names and locality is mandatory when registering and privacy seems questionable. After following a few discussions, there appears to be a trend of very biased and controlling behavior in comparison to other public forums. It seems Nextdoor caters to elite, sensitive-phonies, with hidden agendas, whose feelings take priority over candid discussions. It seems when opposing views differ from certain members; the gate keepers will let you know and it doesn't take much to land in the principals office; almost like an attempt to control or persuade public opinion on various topics. It appears the Leads take it upon themselves to decide who does or doesnt have access, without justification by most standards. Seems their monitoring is quite subjective and wrong to me, but I'm not an attorney. I closed my account after a few weeks and warn people. Better served as a local bulletin board. This is my personal opinion, but my gut tells me somethings not right with this web site.

Against my better judgement, I received a post card to rejoin Nextdoor.com. Nothing has changed - a handful of bad neighbors continue to misuse the urgent alert functionality and the Community administrators come down on those who express frustration about the misuse.

Example: One lady posted an urgent alert at 2am the week of Christmas looking for someone to embroider T-shirts. Several folks complained and voiced frustration, and those complaining/voicing frustration were censured because 'urgent alerts' are 'subject to interpretation'.

The terms of usage that everyone agrees to when signing up clearly state how 'urgent alerts' are to be used. If the administrators are not going enforce the community behavior standards, the site will continue to be less than useful to the community.

I have no idea why anyone would give nextdoor.com a bad review. Could it be that it can vary by some nextdoor.com neighborhoods? I take what I find useful and turn off notifications for any that are not. It's a way to establish a feeling of community if our busy lives.

I was invited to join this site by my neighbor. I thought it would be a nice, friendly, helpful, neighborhood site. We have always got along very well with our close neighbors and this seemed like a nice way to kind of stay in touch with the rest of the neighborhood or check out events, free things and helpful local information of vendors, businesses and services. I had seen many postings from individuals that had either a small business or offered services like cleaning or dog walking in the area. Which we thought was a good idea. I posted ONE small friendly post about cleaning services and was slapped down by a very power crazed, control freak of a "Lead" in another neighborhood. Quite frankly he reminded me of some sort of nut extremist that wanted to come off as a CEO VIP of Nextdoor. I felt bullied, upset and confused not to mention it was an honest mistake on my part. How could I know after seeing all the other postings that this supposedly was not allowed? Why are there advertisements from big corporations then? This happened on what I thought was supposed to be a friendly local NEIGHBORHOOD site. However large companies were able to advertise as well and if someone asked about a service then you were allowed to advertise or if you didn't get caught you were allowed to advertise. It was crazy!
Another one of our area neighbors posted about her lost kitty, which was declawed and normally was an indoor cat. She was ripped into for the kitty being declawed and I mean these people and this "Lead" just were insane. My poor neighbor adopted the kitty and had no part of declawing it. However it was like she was some sort of new target for people to jump on! It seems the "rules" of this site only apply to those the Lead chooses. Very bad experience and if I could have given a -10 review I would have.
