I drove my upstair neighbor away by complaining to the office continuously by telephones and fax.

I think you should go talk with the management and tell them unless they do
something about this, or you should have the right to terminate the contract without penalty.

That's what we did. Not only did we get rid of the upstair neighbor, we also got the management to waive the penalty. We are set to move at the end of this month.

Didn't know you are a fellow bay area person. I guess they are huge Raiders fans. Get ready for Sunday football parties this fall.

You should check what the occupancy laws are in California. Most states have limits on how many people can live in one place. I'm guessing they're way over the limit.

it would be funny if they posted about this annoying white geek :)

on a serious note, what can you do legaly to keep them from disturbing you again? since you made a complaint to community officer, cant they be charged with something if your report again?

edit- i dotn think you can beat them at their own game..

if they can listen to the music for 5 hours in their house(which will be louder then to scsi freak) then they can withstand any sonic abuse scsi can throw at them.. and probably scsi will not last long.

I honestly don't understand how mentioning that they are hispanic makes them any more morons then if they were German or French. Loud neighbors who don't care about others come in all races and it does no good to mention it. Just calling them morons woud have sufficed. Still, I can understand your anger because I know what it's like to have people around me like that. If complaining hasn't done you any good there really isn't much you can do. I guess you could just try again and see if it gets you any further.


Oh and IGBT stereotyping people like that makes you look like a moron!

I TOTALLY know what you mean...

My highschool is in this weird region with a blend of upper middle class homes and GHETTO GHETTO livings. I mean, there's a frickin tweeter store across from an ALDI mart.

It makes it tough, different lifestyles.

SCSIfreek doesn't necessarily need to be home. Just crank his music to one song on repeat and go off and do errands :p

PC is so overrated. Is it such a crime to offend someone? I remember the good ol' days when you could offend anyone and everyone. Do I have to respect everyone? :)

Move man if you complain to the rental office enough about it you may be able to get out of your lease. My lease has a clause in it hat states the landlord is to provide a safe, peaceful, and habitable enviroment. Check your lease.

If they're from Middle- or South America they're most likely Catholics anyway, so you'd be doing them a favor by playing Christian crap. Just give them a nice, North American Christian welcome and put a few burning crosses in the garden.

my mom had a some neighbors below us evicted. She complained a lot and mention that they had more people then their lease allowed.

Look up renter's rights. If your complex can not do something about it. There must be a way out.
