Big article today in the Strib talking about coyotes.

Post by: delcecchi on February 02/01/19, 11:21:02 PM
Folks talking about coyotes not too far from me on nextdoor.com   

I didn't exactly get accolades for pointing out that they are unprotected and can be trapped or shot at any time....

So what's this nextdoor thing?  Sounds like an adult dating site.
Title: Re: Words to live by....
Post by: Bobberineyes on February 02/02/19, 08:59:47 AM
It's a neighborhood app, or a surrounding community app that they pretty much talk about anything, similar to here in a way.

:shocked: :scratch: :tut: :laugh: No it's not that LPS, really it's just a site that's basically a message board of people who live or spend a lot of time in the same area. Bet there's 1 for Baudette or LOW. A lot of seasonal people use it for recommendations on all sort of things from places to eat, to where to get their car fixed, to plumbers, carpenters & such. They use it a lot to get the lake association news out as well. I see Boober beat me to it, oh well, I'll still add my .02

Just be careful with that app, guys. Don't put out personal info on it, like the huge gun and coin collection you have...and when you'll be gone on vacation. (Which is what people use it for) One of the Co-captains here in the neighborhood watch program raved that's the way to go to crush crime (he knows nothing other than techie stuff) Got a lot of people to start using it to let others know when they were away, watch their house, etc. a few years ago.
 I really fought against it, and ultimately pulled out along with my entire block due to possible issues with it. Odd, but houses on his block were broken into three times the next year... :scratch: What if yer sleazy nephew is over, accesses yer Email on it, sees that Joe next door is asking his house be watched while he's in Arizona for two weeks, because he has that huge coin collection.....IMO, it's disseminating personal info out there that can be used against ya. And it has been done a lot, according to some police statistics. Just be careful with it, guys. There's a lot of dirtbags out there.

That's not really an issue here either. Only 1 or 2 posts a week, maybe, this time a year. Might be 5 or 6 a week during the summer, so I don't turn it off.
Title: Re: Words to live by....
Post by: Rebel SS on February 02/02/19, 01:02:24 PM
It would be my educated guess that places like our #1 city with the rampant crime would be more of an issue....but, we're having a lot of burglary's and break-ins in the rural areas around here, too. Been a string of thefts of rural area construction equipment /houses that they just can't seem to solve...over 20 so far.  The people are always gone for a period of time when these places are hit...how do they know? They're getting it somehow.
In a tight knit, small neighborhood area, shouldn't be a problem, (unless you link to other unknown areas) but never put personal stuff out there. Not trying  to bash anyone's enjoyment, but, be safe, guys. It's hard to do in this day and age. That was the kind of stuff I was invited to neighborhood watch groups to talk about.
Title: Re: Words to live by....
Post by: Bobberineyes on February 02/02/19, 01:18:21 PM
Really isn't anything negative on nextdoor reb,  you sure were talking about the same app? Cuz nobody starts a thread on what they own/have or when they are going on vac. It's all talk on a lost cat, looking for help at this or that. Now and then someone spots a strange vehicle going thru neighborhoods and alerts everyone but that's about it. This morning an older lady broke her faucet,  posted she needed help and several neighbors said were on our way, no big dollar plumbers needed, lots of stuff like that. As far as this place goes, we've all said or showed way more on what we have than that app goes. My address isn't even tied to the app, just the street.
Title: Re: Words to live by....
Post by: Rebel SS on February 02/02/19, 01:21:07 PM
Yup, that was the app that the guy had everyone on down here, Boob. The App isn't negative; it's just how the guy wanted to use it. Still have his handout. This was three years ago; I hear some security issues/settings on the site have been changed since then. His idea was to tell everyone when you were gone, watch my house, etc. and post it on the app. Not a good idea. Suppose you can use it for whatever you want. What you are stating I'd see no probs with. May be different in another neck of the woods, I suppose.
Was just sayin'. .....Also the PD here advised the watch groups against it, using it the way he wanted...amnd most of the neighbors here agreed.  Things really vary from town to town/person to person.  It's whatever floats yer boat. Like everything else, it's a personal decision. Lotsa good folks out here, and some dirtbags in the mix too.

Post by: Gunner55 on February 02/02/19, 01:53:21 PM
Yup, pretty much just like what Boober's talkin about here too. :happy1: Neighborhood watch signs up all around the lake as well. I think it was the guy in charge of the bi-annual paper that the lake assoc puts out that was mainly responsible for getting ours going. Not positive on the exact numbers but the last time I seen 'em, I think they said that a little better than 1/2 the residences that qualify were signed up. Not really that hard to tell if somone been around up here either, just look at the mailbox, the cubbyhole next to it has 2 or 3 Shoppers in it. Probably not going to get the PD or Mayo to admit that all that diversity could be a factor to the higher crime rate either are ya Reb. :tut: :thumbs:

Gunner, I don't know that there is a nextdoor for where our cabin is on Vermilion.  There is a FB group for Cook so that might be it.   

So far I don't know that it would be of any help to criminals.  But if you want to help out some lady whose dog chewed up the floor boards, or some old dude, not me, who needs some free help hanging sheet rock you are in luck.
