I just moved out of my parents house into a really nice luxury loft in downtown buffalo. Im 23 and my gf is 22, The majority of the complex is made up of 30 somethings but my neighbors on one side are also some 20 something college students (one is a long island girl and the other is some wigger kid) anyways, during the day and night usually once a day they start having sex… and the girl is REALLY loud like i can hear her clear as day in my apartment and a little bit outside her apartment. at first it was funny, but day after day its gotten annoying. Its gotten to the point that when i have people over im just hoping it doesnt happen again because its kinda akward. and i dont know what i would do if it happened when my parents of my gfs parents were visiting a week ago i banged on the wall when they were doing it and they quieted down a littl bit, and i hadnt heard from them all this week, but today ~10 am they started going at it again with my gf home alone who called me at work to ask me what she should do. and she just turned up her music to compensate… we are always very considerate of noise levels in my apt, and i didnt bring a surround sound to the apt because of this anyways, what should i do here, should i complain to the landlord? or leave the neighbor a note? BTW, its so loud that you would think you are in the same room as them, its that clear ---

Got some thin walls huh, yeah I would drop a line to your landlord… Something along the lines that you pay enough money to live there and not deal with that crap. ---

Sounds like they are having a good time…ask to join? lol. Seriously though. It would be kinda awkward, but talk to them and tell them to keep it down or you’re going to file a noise ordinance against them. Its that simple. You pay to live there and have the right to a quiet living environment. ---

Know their names? Have people over, start drinking, then start yelling shit at them. “Louder Stephanie!” “Fuck her in the ass Jeremy!” “Jeremy, cum in Stephanie’s eye!” “Stephanie you bad girl!” “Stephanie, have you ever tried skiing airtight? Because I’ve got 4 more guys here ready to go!” Or whatever the fuck their names are. You may have to do this once a month or so, but hey it’s fun! ---

they’re not gonna shut up no matter what you do. It’s not like the guy is going to stop fucking his g/f just because the neighbor is complaining. Talk to the landlord and see if he’ll reimburse you the cost of that acoustical stuff. Then next time they’re making noise, record it, and play it back at them through your stereo. Or throw a nyspeed party and we can all cheer through the walls and yell out positions they should try. [Next page](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/expected-noise-level-from-neighbors/19060.md?page=2)
