I hope you enjoyed your recent interview. Please forgive me in the delay in responding to this, but I wanted it to be noticed by you rather. I work at Airbnb, and I empathize with your feelings. I, too, agree that hosts who list an extreme number of properties, and especially those who rent out properties specifically for the purpose of running a listing, are hurting our community. They are definitely not in line with our mission. Just the other month, several property managers were removed from the London market for doing just this: http://www.thememo.com/2016/02/16/airbnb-removes-hundreds-of-listings/ http://www.thememo.com/2016/02/16/airbnb-removes-hundreds-of... The problem with a blanket policies across the entire site limiting all hosts is that we have so many different use-cases. Some hosts will create multiple listings; one for when they want to rent out their entire home, and others for individual rooms in their home. Sometimes want to rent out their summer home in the winter, and their winter home in the summer. It is a difficult problem, so it makes more sense to remove hosts on an individual basis; either those who provide bad experiences for guests, or those who do not make a positive contribution to the community. Having neighbors be able to veto a listing sounds like a great idea, but how would you validate who the neighbors are? Especially in remote localities where internet access is limited?
