last night, around 10:15 the people above us started to pound on the floor again (most likely trying to tell us to STFU). my roomie was in his room playing vids, listening to music, with the door closed. i was out in the living room watching tv (at a low volume) and talking with the lady friend (yes.. we actually were talking). neither of us were able to hear the music, his door is probably 15 feet from where we were sitting, and probably another 20-25' from his door to where his pc is. how are the people above us able to hear that music, when i couldn't even hear it in my own apt.
this isn't the first time that there has been a problem here. about 3 weeks ago we go a 'noise voilation' from the apt. managers saying that they we were disturbing the other residens with our 'pounding bass'. (the speakers that my roomie has are logitech z340's.. hardly pouding bass, and at the time of the first incident they were cheap ass logitech speakers with no sub.) about 3 days before we got that letter they had been pounding on the floor again.
by no means have we been loud. even the neighbors across the hall from us have said how supprised they were on how quiet we have been. but then we have these bast!rds above us :| and it's not like they don't make noise. every morning we hear them get up, take their showers, fvck around in the kitchen and pretty much hear every footstep they make, yet we arn't being assh0les and telling management about them. :| (note these people are a single couple in late 20's early 30's).
we (the roommates and myself) have decided to go up there tonight when we are all done with class and let them know they are fvcking insane (well.. not like that) but we plan on explaining that it is impossible for them to be able to here us, when we hardly make noise, and even if they do, how can they prove that it's coming from below... and not above or from the ajacent apt. if they decide to be dicks again, well simply explain that we can hear every move they make and it's very disturbing in the morning while we are trying to sleep, and plan on reporting them to housing management.
thoughts? suggestions? comments? i'm sick of having to worry about living in my own apt. people like this need to loosen up a bit. 1015? seriously. :|
edit: just got off the phone with the apt. management and the lady that i spoke with said that they haven't heard any more complaints from them, and suggested that the noise was coming from somewhere else. she said that she was going to speak with them and ask exactly what is the problem is and the noises that they claim to be hearing, and would call me back before 5pm tomorrow. she then assured me that we would not be evicted for complaints made against us when we arnt doing anything wrong. (ie; listeing to music at a reasonable level)
ether way, i'm still going up there tonight when i get home.. and plan of giving them my phone number so they can call us and tell us to be quiet instead of banging on the ceiling.
