Posting on Neighbourly

Courtney from Loburn

Does anyone else find it frustrating that Neighbourly acts so Gestapo- like and won't let you answer a post that comes up on Neighbourly??

Sometimes people just don't always understand how to post on neighbourly and they don't open it up to everyone. Especially when offering an item for sale.

Twice lately I have wanted to buy something from this forum and it came back that they are not in my neighbourhood so I can't contact them. I phoned one person and they did want to sell it to me, but I had to look them up in the phone book and call them. Not everyone is listed in the phone book, though.

If we're being neighbourly, and let's face it, we really do need our neighbours these days, why is Stuff so limiting and domineering. You used to be able to message someone who had something you wanted to buy or discuss with them, but now you can't get in touch at all.

I put it to Stuff and Neighbourly that you aren't being neighbourly at all!! Why can't you add a feature that one could get in touch with a person who isn't from your neighbourhood or why can't we all be neighbours with a restriction available when you only want it in your area.

You now can't even answer a post now.

THIS ISN'T BEING NEIGHBOURLY

Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

In The Post’s opinion piece on the developments set to open across Aotearoa in 2026, John Coop suggests that, as a nation, we’re “allergic to exuberance.”

We want to know: Are we really allergic to showing our excitement?

Is it time to lean into a more optimistic view of the place we call home? As big projects take shape and new opportunities emerge, perhaps it’s worth asking whether a little more confidence (and enthusiasm!) could do us some good.
