I can't believe I got kicked off an app!
Not this one. That Nextdoor one. Because I didn't use my real name and this unhinged...uh...woman reported me because...I don't even know why. But she called me vile and disgusting.
I'm pretty insulted, actually. I've never been banned from anywhere on the internet before!

A lot of people do on there.
Know what the really twisted irony is? If *I* were the unhinged one, I know who reported me and generally where she lives. Because of the app's rules.1 -
Very interesting - well I have been kicked out of some bars in my day if that helps lol...3

Lol, glad I could help!!!1

And because this is the only place I can vent, here's my strongly worded email to support.
First, I'm pretty sure I know who reported me and you might want to check out how unhinged she was before kicking off a person who was trying to help her. Or is hurling abuse at people not against the TOS?
Second, I get the TOS about real names but, uh, identity theft is a real thing and using your real name on social media is downright stupid. And makes it easy to get people's info. Do you REALLY want that to happen to someone? Do you want to be liable for that?
That's all I have to say.
lol it's not like I don't know how to get around all this idiocy. 😀3 -
You definitely brought the heat!!!0

😂 Living dangerously!1

LOL thanks, you two 1

You have to use your real name? That’s insane. How are you supposed to catfish people?!4

It is actually insane though, I’m not kidding about that. What is NextDoor anyway?0

This is 100% true.
(.... and whomever disagreed with her post, you're wrong.)
Nextdoor is filled with the kind of people who report co-workers to HR.
Nextdoor should just go ahead and change their name to ButtHurt.6 -

Hope you asked to speak to the manager3 -
Hey, I like Trader Joes!
But, god, they really are very thin skinned on the Nextdoor app. And busy bodies. And EVERYONE'S suspicious.
@hrichts It has something to do with being a community and being able to trust your neighbors? Like if you know their name, they can't screw you over? *eyeroll*
You also are supposed to disclose your general location. Both are there for all to see and I don't think you can disable that.0 -

How have I never heard of this app before?
Could I use it to borrow a cup of sugar from my neighbors without having to actually talk at them?2 -

only if you want to be called a communist. That seems to be the number one come back in our area.
A friend got into a discussion about fireworks, she was told her dog is a communist because he is scared of fireworks
From what I hear it is definitely full of crazies! 4 -

If you ever wanted to know which of your neighbors is the bat*kitten* neighbor, Nextdoor is the place to find out.1 -
i've heard of the app but never really looked into it. on paper it sounds like itd be a great way to stay aware of things going on, but in practice it sounds like its just another facebook mommy group?
the only real question i'd have is- do they actually show the number of and names of active users in your area before you sign up and commit to giving your information to them?
if not then i'd assume its all just another data harvesting operation.
basically its a joke if you sign up thinking its a great idea, then you give them all your info, only to find out literally nobody around you uses it3 -

I know my neighbour's name and that he's a drug dealer. Yeah, no trust there.
I think the intent of the app is to share info about neighbourhood things like lost pets and giving away free stuff, or people who need help with home/yard maintenance. I ended up joining a few months ago and so far it's been fairly benign, not Facebookish at all, mostly info about break-in trends and a lot of angst about pinholes in water pipes (??). But it sure generates a lot of email notifications about "messages" from my neighbours so I might get rid of it.0 -

Never been banned anywhere, but I got some sort of demerit on this MFP app when I first started, for correcting somebody's spelling. So now I ignore all the misspelt words and grammatical gaffes so I don't get penalized for other people's illiteracy.2 -
I use Nextdoor all the time and I changed my last name so it's a variant of my real one because there are some crazy-a$$ed people on that site.1
