Recent one here; OMG Someone is shooting 44 Magnum in the alley, I found the shell casings!


I replied back; probably just scrap brass that fell of the metal collectors truck.

Oh, and don't create your profile with your full name... use initials or partial of your name.

Yea I've been on it for a while. Thornton is having a huge amount of diesel trucks being stolen. I ;ive at 144th and holly and there have been like 5 or 6 vehicles stolen in the last month or so.

^^^^this
Thornton, Northglenn and Broomfield have been hit hard. Supposedly 29 trucks in recent just in those three cities.
It started with 2000-2005 Ford Powerstrokes but now they are going for every kind, stock or lifted with rims, ect.

So there is a lot of garbage on Nextdoor (like the lady who reports every living thing that walks through the open field behind her house), but the Nexdoor site for my neighborhood in Colorado Springs recently integrated with the CSPD and now CSPD has an actual representative (Detective?) who works specifically with the nextdoor members to work on neighborhood issues like car break-ins and suspicious persons. We recently had a rash of car break-ins and vehicle thefts and the CSPD rep worked with people in the neighborhood through Nextdoor to collect evidence and build a case. Turns out, it was these guys: http://gazette.com/4-youths-arrested...rticle/1583896

This rash of crime in the neighborhood prompted several people to organize an effective watch program (which even included nighttime volunteer patrols for a few days... which directly led to the apprehension of the individuals in the article above) and has greatly raised awareness for crime and safety in the neighborhood. Thankfully, our Nextdoor has a few very good moderators that keep the drama to a minimum and it has been a very effective tool for the area.

Nextdoor drives me crazy. Had a guy within a week of moving in complain about someone who's dog pooped on his yard and the owner cleaned it up. He "didn't need the extra weight on his lawn while the new sod was rooting".

I'm going to have to check this out and see what the neighbors are saying about me.

I have it.. i refuse to post on it anymore. The 'mods' there are triggered worse than the mods here..

We had a good 5 week run of people posting 'did you guys just hear gunshots by such and such...'

I have it, pretty low usage for my neighborhood and surrounding neighborhoods.
