 EN: "I neither like being in large crowds"
Forse I don't like being in large crowds either. Credo che anche col 
"too" in fondo vada bene cmq.

"I, too, don't..." sě, ma "I don't like..., too" no. Si usa "either"
proprio per questo.

cosě su due piedi avrei detto "I too don't like being in large 
crowds".... ma da qui ad avere ragione mi sa che ci corre un bel po', 
purtroppo...

 proprio per questo.
Sicuramente scorretto, ma forse e' usato? (scorrettamente)... mentre gli 
altri che ha citato sicuramente no (se non aggiungendo le virgole al 
secondo, come hai detto tu giustamente)

secondo, come hai detto tu giustamente)
Non lo userei, mi suona un po' strano. Non credo sia usato in una
frase negativa.
I like it too (va bene)
I don't like it too (non va bene)
Dovrebbe essere...
I don't like it either .

 EN: "I neither like being in large crowds"
No. 

 I, too, don't like being in large crowds.
Why is the first sentence correct?

I don't like being in a crowd either.  Io lascerei stare "large".  A
crowd already means a large number of people.

 Why is the first sentence correct?
Without the typo it would be colloquially acceptable in speech. Although the 
'too' is misplaced, it should be after the 'I', the meaning would probably 
be clear from context. Without context you might think the person also 
doesn't like being in small crowds or some other situation. 


Giusto.
Also, consider the following exchange:
<<Your friend says: "I don't like my teacher"
- Wrong reply: "Me too"
- Right reply: "Me neither" (or "I don't like mine either").<<

It's not.
<<Agreeing with negative statements
Your friend says: "I don't like my teacher"
- Wrong reply: "Me too"
- Right reply: "Me neither" (or "I don't like mine either")
If a person makes a negative statement - where the main verb is made
negative using "not" - and you agree with what has been said, you
should say "Me neither".
Your friend says: "I dislike my teacher"
- Wrong reply: "Me neither"
- Right reply: "Me too" (or "I dislike mine too")
Even though the statement in this second example expresses the same
idea as in the first example, the main verb has not been made negative
using "not". <<
http://www.ukstudentlife.com/English/Study/Mistakes.htm
<<"too" is to use in positive context and "either" in negative or
interrogative context.<<

Does "la folla" really have to be "a large crowd" or "large crowds" (Ugh! È
simultaneamente in diverse folle?) Would not "a crowd" suffice?
"I don't like to be in a crowd, either" (Nota la virgola)
"Neither I like to be in a crowd"
"Nor do I like to be in crowd"
Tutti gli esempi sono corretti, ma preferisco il primo.

> Tutti gli esempi sono corretti, ma preferisco il primo.
If someone were to say to me. "I don't like to be In a crowd",
replying with "neither or nor", I would simply say:
"nor/neither do I"  I wouldn't quote the question again.
The only thing I can think of where "nor/neither do I like to be in
crowd"  would work is if there was another statement before it.
"I don't like <whatever>, nor/neither do I like to be in crowd"
