UPDATE
-So the person's television played til about 2AM last night. I contacted the office, and they called his apartment. Someone answered the phone, claiming not to be him. They called his work number, and the person said it was not him. They knocked on his door, and no one answered. The office is getting suspicious, since he lives by himself, yet "someone else" answers the phone when they call him. The office is going to update me tomorrow.
I live in an apartment complex, and we have this downstairs neighbor who has lived down there for over a year. He is actually a pretty nice guy. We have had no problems with him until recently. Starting about 2 weeks ago, he decided to play his television really loud. Usually, it does not bother me. Basically, as long as I am not studying or sleeping, it is not a problem.
So last week, I'm trying to watch television, and I cannot even hear my own television (since I do not make it loud, as a courtesty to those living above me or below me). Basically, I found what channel he was watching, and was able to use the sound from his television to watch the show. I felt that was too loud.
I went downstairs, and could hear his television as I was walking down the stairs. The noise actually sounded like 2 people talking in the hallway. I knocked on his door, but he did not answer. That is probably because he cannot hear the knocking over his loud television. At about 11PM, I called the courtesy officer at my complex, and he went down there, but the guy never opened his door, and the television noise went til about 4AM. I reported the incident to management, and they sent him a letter yesterday.
Well, now today we are back to the same problem. I cannot read in my apartment becuase of his loud television. The courtesy officer (off duty police officer) just went down there, and the guy would not open his door again, so it seems we are back to square one. I am going to talk to management again tomorrow, but the manager is quite anal, and will probably think I am being a pest. Any advice on what I should do? This problem seems to occur 3-4 times a week now, and must stop. Ideas/suggestions?
