Website about bad neighbors

| I started a website recently for people to share their awful or amusing stories about bad neighbors (largely inspired by some of the things that I've read here in this forum!) -- if any of you that have had nasty experiences with neighbors would be willing to write up a story for my site, that would be great.
Moderators, if this is a no-no, please just remove. Not trying to be a spammer, but I've been a member of this site for years, and read this forum every day :) I've "lived" through a lot of your trials and tribulations, and would really, really appreciate it if anyone has the time to write anything for my site. Thanks!

| If I was web savy I'd start one about bad landlords also. All posts would have to be reviewed and give the landlord 30 days to respond because some Tenants that are bad will fabricate things. Then allow the public to search by city, state, name etc. Tenant get screened by good landlords. Tenants expect the landlord to be fair, and obey the lease. Little do they know many landlords are slum lords. There just isn't any real good way for the tenants to do background checks. |

| There's something kind of like that: http://www.apartmentratings.com Landlords can't respond, I don't think, but still, it does give apartment hunters a pretty good sense of how good/bad an apartment complex is. |

| I left a comment about my current complex at apartmentratings.com when i went back there to update my review,instead of my update being accepted,i was sent to a page that claimed that my ip was banned from their site./ and i can't leave or update my review now. but i noticed that they didn't delete my post.so obviously there wasn't anything inappropriate in it. i tried to update it again tonight but i still get this message that my ip is banned.but let me say something about apartment review sites.i don't go by them at all for one reason.how many people do you think that really are satisfied with their apartment decide "oh i think i'll go to a site to place a good review about my apartment complex"...like..not most people.in fact,it's the person that's disgrundled that's more likely to decide to get on the internet and leave a comment about their apartment complex/. My complex is the quietest complex in this area.no boomcars,no crime to speak of and modest rent.but to read the reviews about the place ?? totally reverse of what i just typed here.people complaining about guns constantly being heard all over the place at nights and so on as though this were a ghetto.these are lake front apartments that are totally quiet ,nearly 24/7..once in a while the low hum of a car's radio passing by.but that's just once in a while.and crime? one of our local cops recently told me the only calls they get from out this way is the occasional suspicious person in the parking lot in the middle of the night and he said that it's generally one of the residents just going to and from the coke machine or laundry room and so on. i've lived here for over 5 years.no gun shots..no crime..no constant noise.but if you read the reviews of this place there's quite a different picture that's tainted..i mean painted. and imho it's disgrundled residents who've been evicted ,probably for their noise and so on.loud noise isn't accepted here in this complex late at night.people will complain immediately./i just don't trust most apartment rating sites at all.like i said..i believe that they too often are postings from former residents who've been evicted/. |
