Anti Social Behaviour
Posted: Wed Jul 03, 2013 9:09 am
I read with interest several postings where people complain of smoking in the restaurant / pools and maniacle cycle riders using the complex as a velodrome, and being a non smoker and non cyclist, I have both smpathy and empathy with the postings, however no one seems to care about what I believe to be the worst anti social behaviour, and that is groups of people who have obviously had a good time in town, returning to the complex in the early hours, normally the worst for wear with drink, and instead of keeping moderately quiet, they decide to shout , scream and laugh loudly, bang doors when entering the buildings and worst of all decide to throw themselves in the pools. Either way myself and my young family are constantly awoken by this extremely selfish and inconsiderate behaviour.
Now dont get me wrong, groups of people are on holiday to enjoy hemselves, and good luck to them, and they are free to do whatever they like,within reason, providing it does not affect the well being of others. I have seen young guys, obviously out of their box on booze, slide down the chute in the main pool whilst sitting on a sun bed. Without doubt it is a recipe for disaster, and someone will get seriously injured or could even die. Booze and swimming do not make good bed fellows. The security is non existent, and the elderly guys are not up to the job of trying to remonstrate with rowdy crowds, and why should they ? If I dare to ask them to be a bit more considerate, I am often spoken to in a threatening and intimidating way, more often than not, in a Eastern European or broad brogue accent.
Some of the postings are saying that they are, and could, loose rentals because of the smoking and cyclists. What about the long term resident / owners who dont rent out but are subject to anti social behaviour by visitors who rent and are only over for a couple of weeks and couldnt give a toss? Could I make a suggestion that those owners who do rent out leave a note in their apartments for their clients, asking them to be considerate when entering the complex late at night and to think of others so that every one can enjoy the sun and all that our complexes has to offer ! And can I ask that Fort Noks trys to impose some form of rule / security, or at the very least, place some signs up and make vistors aware of their responsibilities.
