I have a cat that acts like a dog, so there may still be hope! (@Thanks for pooping all over my dreams@)

@You could probably just delete NextDoor@

You know, I have been on Nextdoor for a few years now and never have seen any drama. People ask for recommendations, report crime, update power outage, cellular and internet issues, etc. There's a shady dude who has been banging on doors at zero dark thirty "looking for his wife" and that was reported so now we all know about him. He's an idiot to do that in my area because we're all armed, but whatever. 

I've heard others say Nextdoor is a cesspool of drama and stupidity, but my area hasn't had any issues with it. I did get kicked off a Facebook group. It like a Duval County Ask Your Neighbor type group, but for my area. 

Now THERE is where the drama was. These people (mostly women) were getting seriously bent  over the craptastic internet choices and lack of customer service and starting a new complaint post every other day. After a few months of this nonsense I finally told them they should get together as a group and make a formal complaint to the local office because complaining on FB wasn't going to solve the problem and complaining to customer service wouldn't do any good. And I was polite about it. You'd have thought I'd told them to go prostitute themselves or sacrifice their children. I was banned for three days and I was like, screw it I'm not going to be a part of that group of hens, so I left the group.

I am a patient person until I'm not, then it's over.
