I don’t have the app but I’m on the Facebook group and it’s the usual, dog poo, who’s car is the it’s blocking me in and has my parcel been delivered to you with photo.

The recent drama was the Cencus and people knocking on peoples doors and what colour vest they were wearing. Some woman ranted for hours about it and refused to answer if she’d done the cencus because how dare someone knock on her door and surely it wasn’t legal. Some else said ‘Hun they are not allowed to do that, report it’ It actually says on the government website they will 🤦🏻‍♀️

Now it’s all about the building of 700 houses and the traffic.

Our local fb group is all about foxes and helicopters before covid...

I miss those days. Now it’s about spaces for people.

This is fab 😂 may have to download Next Door now!

Our village Facebook group consists of:

- how DARE people have bonfires
- how DARE people have fireworks (and 100 comments with various updates that are either in the 'my dog is shaking and my indignant rage probably isn't helping them' or 'sod you lot, my dog couldn't care less'
- lost cats (including one women who must have about 5 cats and posts at least a few times a week because they've been out for more than 10 mins)
- obligatory bigot who blames everything on Johnny foreigner
- suspicious vans & people
- unruly off lead dogs harassing other dogs

I can never work out if the level of pettiness makes me laugh or despair 😂

I downloaded Next door to be nosey, saw who was on it and hastily deleted my account.
It’s like the Facebook group but ten times worse as it’s the whole area accusing the poor Hermes man of casing houses.

I feel like downloading Next Door now too 🤣

It is funny whenever a helicopter is out on the FB page. There'll be about 500 comments of people going 'it's over my house now' 'here now' 'it's been over mine for 20 minutes' 'I've not even heard a helicopter'

Whenever a police or ambulance goes past with the sirens on someone will always post about it. Then there will be a few angry people like 'you are so nosey!! Have some compassion!!' Proper kicking off

My local crime watch page also tends to take pictures of people not picking up their dogs poo. Those posts can get a bit rowdy. I think I remember seeing one girl comment that she'd pick the dog poo up and shove it in the owners face 😂

OMG we have this here in Belfast and there is a guy who must be like the mod or something for our area, i swear he is never, ever off it. Always posting big long posts about absolute nonsense. He is never done saying that there has been a report of someone attempting to break into someone else's house. Seems to be happening every other day yet weirdly doesn't tell the police, just us. I feel like he only does it to get people to interact with him.
One my neighbours is constantly on it writing about the graffiti at the end of the street (she got the council and police involved and they came painted over it but they just graffitied it again and again the council painted over it, just saw yesterday they have spray painted it again 😂... it isn't even her wall and it's in a small car park that is genuinely nowhere near her house), she posts about people leaving stuff beside their bins and not in the bins, New Years Eve she posted asking did anyone want jam jars for their window sill to put candles in.. she then decided to take it upon herself and go into all our front gardens and place them on our window sills regardless of if he asked her to or not. Very awkward when I went into the living room and saw a small selection of jam jars lit up on my window sill :ROFLMAO:
Then there are endless posts about missing cats
Endless posts from new people in the area all saying hi and introducing themselves.

Best one has to be a woman posting to find out what chippy was nicest in the area as the one her and her mum normally go to was closed for renovations. Loads of people were replying with their favourite chippy and one woman was getting so arsey because someone had said that the chippy she liked wasn't that good. I couldn't believe people were getting so worked up over someones opinions on a chip shop!!

Oh and yesterday, some guy posted a picture of a little black cat and asked did anyone know its name because he always sees it and its very friendly. A woman commented on it and said the post was suspicious and he was likely looking to steal the cat 😂 The fella was like ''excuse me? Hardly suspicious. I have my own cat. I just wondered what his name was because I see him alot. Crazy woman''

I genuinely never post on it but I do enjoy reading what has been posted on it. 😂

There's an old chap on ours who pops up every now and again causing trouble. I love him! I think he's lonely and thinks I'll amuse myself today and cause some trouble! He never replies to anything, just comes on, drops a bomb and isnt heard from for a few weeks, whilst everyone goes absolutely mental in the comments. Only reason I've kept the app!

I had to come off it, multiple requests for someone to fit an outside tap,( I don't know if that's an euphemism ), one bloke posting terrible Dad jokes every day , some one else posted a picture of his dinner every day and one weirdo was supposedly reporting me to the police for bullying and harassment when I asked him in a perfrctly civil manner why he was opposed to people wearing masks during lockdown. I came to the conclusion I don't want anything to do with my neighbours they are all weirdos. 😂

I'm in another country where the equivalent is a site called "Neighbourly" -- and the content is much the same as what's been posted here! It gets very tiresome ... just endless complaints about everything and loads of bludging ("Does anyone have a near new King-sized mattress and 60" smart TV they're not using that my poor parents who lost everything in a flood and weren't insured, could have for free?"). (Sympathy for them losing everything, but why did they not have insurance?!).

I live in an apartment complex that has a FB community page which used to be great, but just in the past year or so serial whiners have moved in and seem to post daily looking for things to be outraged about. One of the pools has been emptied for maintenance - there is still another one that people can use - the reasons for this needing to happen at this time are very clear, yet people start whining and asking if they'll get some of their body corporate fees refunded as a result. The communal gardens have also come under the spotlight recently, with some complaining there isn't enough colour. I'm just waiting for someone to complain about the noise of tennis balls being bounced!

Slightly off topic but I absolutely blew a gasket when I stayed at a relatives home abroad over Christmas and I was woken at 3am to the noise of a tennis ball bouncing. I was in the windows trying to find the culprit and pacing about in a fit of rage. Turns out my brother in law has the most annoying snore ever and he sounds exactly like a tennis ball bouncing!!

Imagine if I'd been on their neighbour app. 'Sorry about the angry post last night lads. Turns out Ben needs to see ENT' 😂

The dog poo drama in the local Facebook group by my mums really escalated. Someone was taking it upon themselves to spray paint bright Orange circles around the dog poo to ‘shame’ the owners but it made the place look even worse 🙈 Cue 100’s of comments of people kicking off 😂

They used real paint and not a chalk one?! 😮

Yeah this was a few months ago now and you can still see faded circles everywhere long after the poo biodegraded / washes away / whatever it does when left outside 🤦🏼‍♀️ It was some old lady thinking (or not thinking) it would help

Our poo police are much more sensible and have hung really pretty 'pick it up' ceramic signs with a poo bag dispenser attached to them on a load of lamposts. Someone swiftly posted a photo of a giant curd directly under one with the caption 'you're all taking the piss now' to which my favourite poster responded, 'I think you mean not taking the tit' and a war erupted.

I know a lot hate it but the app is absolute gold.

Omg this thread has me in stitches. My neighbors complain about everything too and argue all the time. When I served on the board in my building (we must have eighty tenants) someone wanted to set up a Facebook group for our neighbors and I was a hard veto after seeing the sh!t going down on NextDoor. I stopped reading there after a neighbor got snippy with me when I linked her to the post she was looking for. She accidentally assigned the handyman a racist last name 😂
I don’t visit the website anymore but I still receive highlights. If a cat so much as takes a wee outdoors, I hear all about it. 🥲

I had never heard about this app until I read this. Downloaded it and was kinda disappointed.
All I have is chippy recommendation, fixing this and that, looking for tree surgeon and dog sitter and a woman that needs to move because her son has an extra y chromosome and there's too many cars????

Where's the drama?! Will keep it for a few days and hopefully it all kicks off otherwise it'll be deleted 😂

Ohhh, almost some drama.

Lady wanted a dog walker, someone offered to do it for free but got ignored and had a right go 😂

Some complaint about kids playing with stones??

And my favourite of the day, someone posting a picture of the bottom of a door asking if anyone recognised it because their package was taken there 😂
