I love camping but don't understand why some people don't take their neighbors into consideration.  What about people letting their car alarms off and can't find their keys... usually in the middle of the night?  What bothers you?

I could give you a big long list of things that bug me..  but the things I see the most are 1) people who don't pick up after their dogs...  we always have at least 2 bags with us when walking the dog incase he goes more then once...    and 2) The jack@$$ who can't walk 10 feet to check and see if he locked his car  (generally find them to be Japanese or European imports) and has to press the lock button not once, not twice but about 5 times in 3 minutes....

Drunks the ones who can hardley stand up and think the whole campground wants to party with them.

Loud Radios.  If I want to listen to music, I'll turn my own radio on, thank you.

Noisy neighbors during quiet hours....I hate it when other campers stay up well into the night, laughing and talking loud, with no regard for those who are trying to sleep.

I had noisy neighbor problems at a SP in VA.  My daughter and sons were right next to them.  I turned the boys loose at Zero-early-morning on those hung over inconsiderate a55 holes.  And I helped by ensuring I had nice loud pots and pans when making breakfast.

I hate the people who are out in nature and can't walk anywhere but have to drive to the bath house or walk thru our campsite instead of around the roadway.

I don't mind the diesel.....Provided they don't IDLE forever while they set up. 

Personally, I usually turn my headlights off when I am in the campground and just have the parking lights on. (provided I can still see)

Double L,

I have to say I don't mind the diesel either. Some folks just don't care about anyone else, but themselves. As can be seen by the other posts here, heck I'd tend to agree with all so far.

Loud Generators  >:(.    I just love the people that go camping and have to run a generator all day to keep the ac going....  I love even more the jacka** that runs a generator but puts its away from his camp so it is not as noisy with the exhaust aiming at my camp....  Yeah I want to hear that, thanks a lot.

Mine would be the people cutting thru our site, not cleaning up after their pets and the biggest is LOUD motorcycles.  Why do people find it necessary to scare every living thing running for the hills? Some of them even at idle are loud, why? :dunno:  I just think it's rude.  Put a muffler on it.  I'm not anti bike, just anti loud.

I make it a point not to let the little stuff get to me and ruin my trip.  Rather then get mad and worked up over the little trivial things people do without thinking, I kinda chuckle and shake my head and move on.
