My friends recently moved in to. Beautiful house this past December and the neighbors to one side have been calling the cops nonstop for tiny shit that isn't even worth calling for such as.. living. They think any of us that visit are hauling ass past their house because our trucks are loud. Not obnoxious loud but what do u expect when a truck is going up a steep hill? They've literally ran out to the road screaming at me for driving 20mph which is 5 below the limit. I've given up and neutral drop every time I pass now.

Don't break your drivetrain doing neutral drops now.

We have a similar problem with the jerks who moved in next to our private shooting range. They'd bitch and call the cops when we had our night matches. Here in PA they don't have a leg to stand on. The club was there 1st, and there are laws against harassing shooting clubs for noise.

 

Of course, shooting my cannon doesn't help.

I always go by 10pm to 6am it should be quiet-basic common courtesy. 730? And over a dog barking? They need to move out of the neighborhood and buy land if that bothers them.

People would have a problem with me then. I dont get home until 10:45 PM from class, truck isnt the quietest and then i have to let my angry dog out

This is actually kinda sad.

 

I wonder if some people are even interested being a' good neighbor' and if they actually realize that there are always two sides to the story.

 

Both sides are important. No neighbor should think he's the one who's right.

 

As for me I am a really quiet person, I like it clean and organized and try to be a so called 'good neighbor'.

I believe that 'this one neighbor' of mine like anybody else thought about himself so too.

 

As I said, I am really quiet, trying not to p.ss anyone off.

My neighbor though didn't really feel like being quiet and (just an example) used to play his electric guitar regulary on a Sunday morning no matter what time it was.

 

So being a working person waiting for the weekend to come to get some sleep I had a difficult time, so had my husband (working 24/7) and my daughter (high school student in her final year).

 

Asking him to be a bit more understanding he said he can do whatever he likes and that was it.

 

Since we're renting at that point I asked my Landlady for help and she wasn't too happy about the situation.

She tried to deal with it but again he wouldn't listen.

 

So when I read some of the posts I had to laugh a bit because:

I asked my LL if I could go just down to my neighbors and knock on their door asking them to not play guitar at 7am on a Sunday morning. And she said 'Omg, don't do that. That would be an invasion!' WTH? Invasion?

 

The fatcs are:

I/we really needed some quiet time. My neighbor needed (obviously) to play guitar no matter what and my LL couldn't do anything about it.

 

Great.

 

If I would have known that he's got a gun (like some of you guys) how am I supposed to deal with that?

 

These days way too many people are all about their rights and they do whatever it takes to p.ss others off just for fun BUT do not realize that there could be a simple solution for everyone. Having fun & being a good neighbor.

 

I do not want to be too scared to ask my neighbor if he could do or not do something. I do not want my neighbor to get back at me just because.

 

Why would someone think it's a good idea to get back at the neighbor(s) over and over again.

 

If you don't want me to call an officer or the city then work with me. Be a neighbor.

 

I know very well that I have to deal with noise and that it's called living. That's just fine.

But don't be a sh.itty person and expect me to give in just because you think you're the one who's is right.

 

There is no right. There is no wrong. We can get along better when we think about the others around us.

 

I have lived in many places and at the end of the day we all want the same. Don't we?

 

...yeah go ahead and show your neighbors what a tough person you are. What's the point? There is non, except you like to p.ss someone off because you can.
Get a life.

 

I love neighbors because I can enjoy a good BBQ, chat or have coffee and ask for help or even offer help.

That's the real fun - in my eyes.

...looking back I remember being told to move 'if I don't like it'.

 

So question is who is supposed to move? Do I have to move into the woods because I don't like the noise in the morning? Or should my neighbor move into the woods so he can play whenever he wants to?

 

I've been asked to tolerate pot smoking neighbors. I've been told that's just the way we live, that's just the way it is around here.

And yes that's true. I agree.

 

But sometimes I feel like I have to tolerate everything. Even if it means I cannot open my windows for fresh air because I have to deal with the (in that case) pot smoke (which I find disgusting).

 

The best I can do is to watch out and think twice. Is the TV louder than usual because of Grandma or because of some teenager. My guess is that I'll tolerate Grandma's noise more than the one from the teenagers. Just because they could/should know better.

 

Okay, gone now :)

This statement confounds me. I guess you think every gun owner pulls their gun on people who knock on their door?

I don't feel that every gun owner pulls their gun on people that knock on their door, and I completely agree with her statement.

 

Why? Because I believe that any self-righteous, over-entitled loudmouth that espouses how everything is "their right" to do poses a significantly high risk of being ignorant enough to believe that brandishing a weapon at someone at their door that is asking them to understand that they are disturbing their neighbor is ALSO their right. Even if they DON'T escalate right over the line and discharge that weapon at that point, they've still shown that there is an absolute lack of reasonability on their part.

SnakeEyes,

 

I am sorry for not being clear!

 

It was stated by someone that he hates it when people do not try to solve an issue. And I totally agree, I know exactly where he's coming from. Sometimes it's just not as easy as it seems.

 

I can assure you that I don't think that every gun/weapon owner would pull the trigger the moment I knock on their door. That's not what I meant.

 

The twist is, at least for me that I prefer to get things off the table, if possible having a beer afterwards. But I don't know if the other person feels the same. My neighbor wasn't that kind of person. (Not saying he is a bad person though!!)

 

The reality is that nowadays some people feel offened right away or seem to have some sort of need to protect 'theirs'. People react different than they did 25 years ago, kind of overreacting - that is my expierence.

 

As soon as my LL said don't do that it's an invasion I felt pretty much helpless.

 

So put this together:

 

I got a 'noisy' neighbor. As a good neighbor I am supposed to talk in person to my neighbor. My LL basically says No. Some people have weapons and do use them (please don't tell me about the rights of having a weapon - thats not my issue!!).

 

What's my option?

 

By the way... we also had a neighbor across the street who did shoot ...he was upset at his girlfriend and he just shot - they picked him up the next morning. :(

 

I believe that a lot of weapon owners are good people. I'm still scared of the ones with a short temper :)

 

cheers!!

No offense, but sounds like you might need to move. If you have guitar playing pot smoking neighbors and you don't like to get high or jam with them, you're in for a world of hurt.

 

You can't win every battle nor solve every problem. Your LL isn't giving you good advice. If you walk over with a 6 pack and a joint, I bet you can work something out.
