The leads are harassing and bullying and enticing anger onlineThey delete other posts and harass the posts from those they do not likeI am in Walnut Creek and I have contacted Nextdoor and they continue to do nothing
NextDoor in the Highlands/Cherokee Park area (Louisville) is dominated by a small contingent of leftists who personally and savagely attack anyone who expresses a contrary point of viewThese people are elitist and not an insignificant number are, I believe, soft racistsWhen a parent posted about the Jeff Co Pub Schools being unresponsive to a complaint about a teacher, I suggested that greater choice and even vouchers would permit parents of minority and economically disadvantaged children to achieve better developmental outcomes and a frothing contingent "reported" me to NextDoorWhen, in response, I conducted a NextDoor poll asking whether the site should promote (yes/no) a "free, open exchange of ideas on community issues so long as the dialogue is respectful" I was assaulted with some of the most vitriolic commentary I've ever seen on blog site for being political in raising that issueOne of the people who attacked me, incredibly, is a minister in the Episcopal Church in the Metro Louisville area, who when I suggested his very ugly comments were un-Christian accused me of "playing the Christian card." Priestly garments and persona, I guess, are checked on the way out of the church NextDoor is poisonous to civil dialogue and community amity
Received this after having an issue with a trollHe then private messaged me and we "worked it out", or so I thought
I went to login a few days later and could notI emailed support and received this reply
For the record: I never used a fake nameI sent back the postcard they sent me, confirmed my address, etcetcPretty hard to fake things when they send a postcard to your address
My reply to their email was that they can keep their system and their sociopaths and to delete my account completely as per their privacy rules

I have been disappointed by Nextdoor's "selective" user guidelines and monitoring practices for some time nowI was horribly harassed and stalked by two different persons over some political issuesDespite multiple attempts to get some resolution from Next-door they didn't even bother to get back to meThe perpetrators broke just about every Next-door rule multiple times, and yet I was left to fend for myselfIt was so bad that we considered hiring a lawyerWe even installed a second security system in our home because of itIt was quite obvious to me that Next-door was taking a political stance against the particular citizen's committee of which I am a member, and that they appeared to favor persons connected to a big money Bay Area developer who does not even live in our communityIt was a big disappointment and shock to residents who saw the exchanges on what they thought was supposed to be a safe "neighborhood" venueMany of us also got the impression that subscribers were randomly suspended or removed from next-door for very minor infractions, while others who consistently committed severe policy violations were allowed to remain undeterredUse this site with extreme cautionYou're on your own if you have a problem with it
I can't see a site being helpful for community policing, especially when neighbors don't do their part anyways, so social media for a neighborhood or any neighborhood in fayetteville, nc will never work This may work in tight-knit communities where people actually care, but social media? Stick to facebook and facebook has groups for this very thing that does not provide your address information to be shown to everyone in surrounding communities to be able to accessI guess many live in a perfect world with no pedophiles or sexual deviants around them I would rather they not know my name and address And, this can backfire allowing so much access to those around you that you haven't taken the time to get to know in person firstI wish people would stop relying so much on online methods for communication - there already so much distraction and a HUGE disconnection in humanity This does not bridge communities or bring people closer, if people assume so, they're delusional, but they can keep assuming soLastly, I've requested this site to remove my information completely and to no avail
The time when I joined/created an account it was because I got a postcard in the mail with one of my neighbors name on it that was saying how my neighborhood is currently using a system called Nextdoor to link the neighborhood and for people to add on there like missing dog or items for sale just sounded like a great community thing that I loved the idea of although after getting into it and seeing how many of my neighbors and people across the country had joined I loved it but then I started getting phone calls from people and texts saying like "stop inviting me to nextdoor it's getting really annoying" and I just was thinking I didn't invite to anything and then I started seeing how they were sending postcards around inviting people and the worst part is the post cards had my name on it like I was sending them and wrote them also nextdoor started getting a hold of my contacts through the app on my phone and sending out invitations "from Me" taking away my integrity with many people and customers of my business they are just taking peoples info and also hiding behind other peoples name to invite more people to give up there info about the most unethical business i've seen
All this app is , is people posting pics of every car that pisses them offa bunch of soccer moms bhing about everything and banning anyone who argues with themI disagreed with someones post and got bannedthere was no arguing yelling or cussing I just simply disagreed and someone banned me nextdoor blocked my account without even letting me knowcrappy communist app
This website is wonderful in the hands of civil, decent, polite peopleSurrounding neighborhoods share gardening tips (and sometimes even excess veggies), exchange recipes and tell others about relevant community eventsI know more of my neighbors since joining months ago than in the last years of living by themJust like every single other environment, real or virtual, one may encounter loud, grumpy, opinionated bigots among the decent folkThis site is designed to be of the people, for the people and by the peopleEvery member may select settings that will either share or hide their addressesIt does not share private information without permission, even though there are people who libelously claim that it has when they can't figure out how to use a computerIt was perfect, and then we added fallible humans to it, and it became only as negative as its members made itI haven't heard a whisper of anything negative happening in any of the score of surrounding neighborhoods where I amI would (and have, over 1,times) recommend this awesome, friendly and community-minded site to anyone
I am tired of receiving an avalanche of messages everyday from Nextdoor silversaddle There is no apparent method for discontinuing membership The information contained in this system is mostly meaningless and a waste of time I have tried to unsubscribe, it only works for one message at a time
Leads are bulliesTrolls have a fertile playground with no accountabilityNo matter how much good you can do or have done for your community, one ambiguous comment can get you deleted in this totalitarian landscapeLeads protect their friends and they unite together with their friends to "mob" other usersReporting them to Nextdoor is a waste of timeThey do nothingLeads are the most powerful clique and THEY decide whether you can eat at their lunch table or notNextdoor is no longer news, goings-on, curb alerts or neighbors helping neighborsSooooo many people have stopped using it that Nextdoor practically begs it's users to recruit, send out postcards, get the word out to recover some of their user lossesBEWARE: hypocrisy IS the name of the Nextdoor1) you can't post commercial or promotion....but Nextdoor can to get you to buy things from their sponsors and monetize user traffic2) Report stuff that Nextdoor will never handle and get reported and booted off for things you never did3) Include yourself with your neighbors, but only if they allow you into their clique4) Free speech does NOT apply on Nextdoor5) Don't bully because bullying is Nextdoor and its' leads' privilegeETC...ETC...ETCLet me tell you how bad it's gotten....the police depts, schools, cities, local clubs and organizations, etc won't even use it anymoreIt's become a snake pit....where bullies and trolls quickly run off the good people....leaving a st pile of bullies and trolls left in the Nextdoor trenches and then they start turning on each other and it becomes a horrible disaster worthy of morbid curiosity
My account was suspended after many years as a member due to violating community standards and not using my "real" name which is *** ***They asked me to send in my driver's license which is incredibly insecure to do via emailI asked if they could simply utilize the county GIS data to verify my name on the deedIt happens to be *** ***k which in when I purchased the house was my father's name which I no longer useI conceded and said go ahead and change my name to the name on the deedThey stated they couldn't use GIS data which is public record and to mail in my driver's licenseI didThey claimed they never got itI emailed multiple times and they stopped respondingdays later my identity was compromised by someone in california attempting to open a bank account in my name using my driver's licenseNextdoor caused my identity to be compromised and now ignores emails
I have been suspended TWICE from Nextdoo*** Presently, my account has been revoked (probably because I ask them questions) Both times I was suspended, I have asked to have them QUOTE MY POSTS VERBATIM that led them to suspend me I have requested a verbatim quote of my allegedly bad posts I have NEVER received any response from them SPECIFICALLY as to why they suspended me They have NEVER been able to quote anything I've written that violates any of their guidelines Never Yet, they always defer in vague terms to their own Guidelines which they say I've violated Ask yourselves why they cannot answer simple questions The answer MIGHT be that there are simply bots working there
Nextdoor.com claims to offer a safe and secure online space for neighborhoods to form a communityThey claim to only allow in users who are "verified" to actually live in your neighborhood, and claim to disallow fake user accountsThis is patently untrue, as our neighborhood has been fighting a Troll who creates multiple fake accounts per day with the sole purpose of harassing, intimidating, and threatening the other residents in our neighborhoodNextdoor.com is unable, or unwilling to deal with this issueAs customers, we have no way of actually discussing the problem with Nextdoor.com as they will not accept calls, and all emails and complaints are met with form letter repliesNextdoor.com continues to advertise their service as safe and secure
We have been having problems with a moderator on Nextdoor that is censoring everyone he does not agree withSince I challenged him, it seems that Next door disabled my accountI had already verified my account two times when it was disabled and I received this messageHi***, I’m reaching out to you today about your Nextdoor accountIt looks like you’ve signed up for a personal account at your business addressYou’ll need to follow a few steps before I’m able to restore full access to your personal accountRespond to this email with your residential address so that I may update your profile, as these are our membership requirements for a personal accountWe’re required to put a hold on your account until we can get these details updated, but if you can provide me with your residential address, I’ll get your personal account updated and reactivated right awayVerify your residential addressClaim your Business Page on Nextdoor, if desiredFinally, while we hope you maintain a
This app/website is THE WORST for getting proper help Even after claiming my local business and getting recommendations, it tells me that I cannot post because I don't have recoommendations When you try to contact them NO ONE gets back to you It's a great site for keeping in touch with neighbors, but in order to actually get proper help, it's like pulling teeth I've been a member of this app for months now, and they're doing NOTHING to improve their comminications It totally stinks
As a Founder & Lead, I spent a lot of time setting up, recruiting and editing my neighborhood A recruited over people to the site and shamed my city into participating on Nextdoor After years my account was deleted because I left negative comments concerning sponsors (*** *** *** *** ***) because of personal dealing with each company that was backed by many more comments from my neighbors It's sad that Nextdoor censors its users with such a heavy hand and protects compaines from real opinions of real customers
I was a user of the Nextdoor application for neighborhood communication and the issue began when a post of a proposal for neighborhood expansion was sharedIt was a heated topic with majority against the proposalIn the Nextdoor application, there are volunteer Leads from the neighborhood who can delete comments based on their interpretation of the community guidelinesA Lead of the Eagle Ridge neighborhood named Shaun***, who is pro-expansion, made great efforts to target and delete comments that did not suit his agendaHe targeted myself and other outspoken people and deleted their comments and even entire whole posts containing useful informationI messaged Shaun directly to resolve the issue but it continuedI then contacted Jennifer at Nextdoor Support and she was unwilling to help with the bullying and harassmentThen I continued contacting them and I received a response from *** Senior Neighborhood Managment SpecialistShe did review and notified Shaun of some o

I purchased advertising as a NextDoor Neighborhood Expert under the Real Estate Section of their websiteWhen I was solicited to purchase this advertising it was indicated I would be the only advertiser in the zip codes I had purchasedNextDoor used the phrases when advertising this placement: "Become the face of the neighborhood" , "Neighborhood Sponsorships are sold on a first come, first served basis." "Adam, there are only a few spots left", "Zip codes are going fast", "Develop a strong presence as the neighborhood expert in the markets that matter most." As you can see, all of their advertising for this placement indicates the zip codes are exclusiveNo where in the signing up or billing area did it state the advertising was non-exclusive and in the terms of service contract it did not state so eitherAfter I signed up for the advertising they created a FAQ stating the advertising would not be exclusiveA further indication this issue is prevalent and they are aware of the co
