Everyblocker brags about taking injured bicyclist's bike


How's this for those sweet kitty and rainbow loving net-neighbors in Rogers Park, who keep NBC Corporation's net-ad revenue flowing on Everyblock. This posting takes the cake.
Jen Pavarotti said: "Sheridan Road is dangerous. That's how I got my carbon-fiber Gary Fisher bike. A guy got hit by a bus and the ambulance left his bike when they took him away. No one knew his name so I got the bike. It's a Procaliber. Best bike I ever had and retails for $3k."
Talk about lowdown and nasty.

David in Rogers Park said, "that's a dick move if there ever was one...."

Tom 2422 said, "Jen return the bike... bad samaritian..."

Oak said, "Is bragging about owning stolen property allowed on EB?"..."

With all the new membership on Everyblock full of phony screen names, touting how wonderful the neighborhood is, we've got one net-neighbor who bragged and boasted with glee about taking some guys bike after he was hit by a car and taken away in an ambulance. 

And, not one CAPS beat facilitator who comments regularly on Everyblock, like John 2431, called her out on this crime. I guess he was too busy being a Rogers Park cheerleader?

BLOGNOTES: Looks like Everyblock is turning into just another hellhole. What are your thoughts on how the moderation team and new boss, Brian Addison, runs this NBC News Corporation website the last month or so?

Looks like Jen Pavarotti just got banned and her post removed.

hahahaha, what a bunch of loony tunes over there.

The moderation on Everyblock is pick-and-choose. Every single thread that gets posted goes off-topic but they don't do anything about it. I guess it's because they need the numbers and comments going to keep the bossman at NBC happy? Glad you're back. I enjoy someone who will put his real name to stories in the hood.

Everyblock Rogers Park has got to have one of the highest participation level for a neighborhood. Now however its being dominated by extremely boring people. Good to see someone is still causing trouble over there (either this person is really dumb or is making up stories)

Fuck Corporate America said...

What shocks me is true blooded old timer RP residents like to claim to be anti-establishment. Everyblock is so far from that. Yet, these so-called RP'rs continue to support the site. Talk about a bunch of hypocrites.

Like Lincoln Park was 20 years ago, Rogers Parkers are the new Yuppies in Chicago!

The crunched bike was like a cheeto bag, just litter on the parkway. Jen did community service is the way I see it.

There was another guy who bragged about cutting a cable lock on a homeless guy's stolen grocery buggy, too.

Good Lord, it's only a blog. Get a life people . Grow up. It's like high school on here (and there).

Oooh this is getting exciting. I wonder who else will die in the great purges of 2012!!?? Methinks there will be something big happening on EB soon. I feel a storm coming.

A United States Post Office worker who delivers my mail is commenting on Every block trying to get people to use his side job on Federal Government work time.
No wonder our mail service is sooo slow and we paid too much to send a letter.

Read this Craig.

I found this on my "sock puppet" email by EveryBlock Sarah. (They don't want to use EveryBlock Becca for some reason):

Hey everyone, we have reason to believe that Mage Lord Mithandrel is a sock puppet who has created duplicate accounts (including the Kent account in this thread).

This post also doesn't fall into the category of neighborhood news so we're going to go ahead and remove it.

There are a few other sock puppet accounts that our team will be taking care of shortly, but if you think there are others out there (particularly those who have joined recently, within the last month or so), please don't hesitate to contact us at feedback@everyblock.com so we can check them out. It's not fair to those of you who do want to be constructive contributors to have folks creating multiple accounts and posting fake or off topic messages. Thanks for your help and patience.

Let's talk about how Everyblock claims to be hyper-local. Sarah lives in New York, according to her Everyblock profile.

So, now we've got a New Yorker moderating a Rogers Park website.

Ole' Feebs is at it again on EB. She's playing Ms. local shopper now, asking for imput on her lame story's. While she's been muted by a bunch of peeps, some fools still fall for her crap she posts.

Craig Gernhardt said...

I know Eddie, and this is really lowbrow for him to post a personal job advertisement on government time. My guess is he hates his job, and wants a better gig for himself.

If the government fires him for pimping his side job on government time, I'd take his job in a second.

At least the neighbors would get their bills delivered on time.

Craig Gernhardt said...

Oh, and I also take pictures. Hire me. This blog and photos are my resume. I'll even take a photo of you crapping on the john, if you so like.

Dark Lord said...

If you took a job as a postal service delivery guy, Craig, you'd run it into the ground just like you did with Gay Chicago.

Craig Gernhardt said...

Dark Lord, at least I got company.

Just like Chuck Renslow ran GayLife to the ground.

Just like Tracy Baim ran Outlines and the Gay Phone Book to the ground.

Just like Malone Sizemore ran Gab to the ground.

Just like Dave Cosatanza ran Chicago Free Press to the ground.

Just like Mike Macherello ran Boi to the ground.

Craig Gernhardt said...

Oh, and let's not forget Jeffrey McCourt. He ran every piece of media he touched into the ground.

After reading all the previous comments I am reminded that it is so good to be in this hole we all call "hell".

I have never liked a single post that this dirty slut "Jen Pavarotti" has posted. I think if one were to open the OED (Oxford English Dictionairy) to the word SHREW we would see a picture of her

Now there's a whole thread dedicated to your praise and so many people love you on EB, it seems.

Dear Anonymous Fucktard you Cretin. Who do you think cleaned up Morse? It was Craig. Who do you think kicked ass and got the police to shape up? It was Craig. Who do you think has brought Rogers Park back from the slums? It was Craig. We should elect Craig as the next Alderman. Moore is a nobody. Hail to Craig.

Suzanne you teetotaling Republican wench you don't understand the benefit of booze. It lubricates the body politic. You need some lubrication from a lubriciously laudable lunk like Craig. Let down your hair and get with it. Party time girl.

Post more pictures of the pit bull you rescued. How is she doing?

What is this thing about Christine in the bath tub all about? Is something going on?

Luv this blog. You rock Craig!

People are wondering why we're bitching about Everyblock instead of ignoring them:
High profile sites like this advertise often and everywhere and people flock to them hoping for some helpfulness, instead they find rampant fucktardery, incredible untreated mental illness and liberalism so flaming, it would set your drapes on fire to keep your browser window open too long.
Places like this need to shape up and be fair or be GONE.
I know I don't even screw around with places like Fark anymore because of ever-online bullies who lord over it with a meaty, cheeto stained fist.
I'd rather disseminate my own insanity the hard way, uncensored.

Emily said...

We love you Craig. Just give the puppy back to Marie. Kiss, kiss.

Everyblock becca strikes her censorship button again. She removed your thank you post but left Joe Moore's up even though they were written by the same inactive user. She has a bug up her ass for you. Good work Craig. Keep pushing on.

THEY BANNED WILLYBEANS!

Hey folks. This message shouldn't have been posted on the site in the first place plus there are a boatload of inappropriate comments so we're going to go ahead and take it down.

Also, we're pretty sure there's some funny business going on with several of the accounts in this thread including WillyBeans and CaptainRogers, so we'll be permanently deactivating those accounts.

As Jeffrey mentioned, it does take a lot to get banned from EveryBlock because, at the end of the day, we'd much rather see folks change their behavior for the better as opposed to having to remove them from site, but creating fake accounts intended to mislead others is a surefire way to get shown the virtual door (so are repeated comment policy violations despite several warnings but that's another issue for another day).

If you guys see other users who you think are involved in shenanigans, please don't hesitate to contact us at feedback@everyblock.com. We do try to give users the benefit of a doubt, so in some cases, it may take us a little while to close down a suspected sock puppet or fake account, but it's helpful when others bring these individuals to our attention so we can at least keep an eye on them.

Thanks.

Let's see: PMR said Everyblock is now dominated by "extremely boring people". Uh-huh, because hearing about the step-by-step process of how to remove a fucking sticker is SOOOO exciting!
And where exactly did Eddie Pedroza say he was he was going to do photography WHILE delivering your cock rings? How do you know he posted that comment WHILE delivering mail? I thought you were all about the FACTS, Craig. And, I'm pretty sure you can have a side job while working a full time job. You guys will stretch whatever you want into your own versions of the truth.

WillyBeans said...

I love you, Craig. You're the BEST! You've single handedly fixed almost EVERY SINGLE problem in Rogers Park. Yep, just you. Nobody else has helped a bit.

And you let Christine Kreutz share your bathtub. That's hot.

Let's form a drum circle...

If any local mental health agencies are hurting for clients, they could just recruit from Everyblock.
One of Panera's "money insecure" clients who was pissed I was trying to take away his free ride said I was going to get a "beatdown" next time he saw me, and claimed I went in and had a racist tirade in their lobby complete with screwing with wheelchair bound folks, when I was in Chinatown far, far away.
If you come at me, you better come correct.
