Long after a decision was made to have King Soopers anchor the Eastbridge Town Center, comments are still being made on a post on the popular Next Door<\/a> social media site. The original post was meant to mobilize an effort to block the grocer in hopes of a natural grocer moving in to the space, but the movement never gained any real traction. What has gained lots of traction is the number of comments posted after the original post. \u201cI really wish the original poster would just take it down,\u201d said Stapleton resident and Next Door<\/a> member Sara Johnson. \u201cI have to see all of these useless comments. The store is there and it is fully operational. If you have a problem with service at the store, start a new post. It\u2019s ridiculous.\u201d Resident Amy Youde would also like to see old posts removed from the site. \u201cIt ends up showing how petty people can be,\u201d said Youde. \u201cOnce a situation is resolved or done with, the original poster or even an administrator just needs to take it down. Do they get some sort of pleasure in seeing how many comments they can get? What a sick, sick world we live in.\u201d Next Door is not planning any changes to the current format. \u201cIt\u2019s a social media site, and therefore, we do not moderate unless something is highly offensive,\u201d said Next Door Communications Director Paul Baltus. \u201cWhile we at Next Door don\u2019t condone the type of behavior and comments we see, especially in the NE Denver Market, it is our policy to allow users to moderate themselves.\u201d Comments on outdated posts have become so annoying, Next Door has lost some users. \u201cI was done,\u201d said Megan Heller. \u201cI would see these topics that were months old, and someone would be commenting on them. All it was doing was feeding the beast. Nothing was getting accomplished. It became a waste of my time, like watching a soap opera. I decided my time could be better spent.\u201d Next Door users may have better luck killing off John Black than killing off these outdated posts.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
