Alright so the landlord is coming over tomorrow and I thank you guys for your advise, but I would definitely appreciate any more you have seeing as this is the first neighborly confrontation I've been in. (never lived in an apartment before this one)

It's not what you know, it's what you can prove. Next time the neighbors are blasting music down the hall and the guy above you is stomping, document it with your video camera. If you can walk down the hall outside your apartment and record the music volume getting louder as you approach your neighbor, even better. When landlord shows up and idiot-upstairs is blaming you, play the video. Idiot-upstairs is revealed as the idiot upstairs, and you're off the hook. Meanwhile idiot-upstairs has a black mark on his tenancy.

And no matter what, when the property manager is there, DO NOT lose your temper.

No NO nO ok maybe my first suggestion was a bit too extreme for you, so i will gladly give another.

Go into your sock drawer and remove one sock, then get yourself a snooker or pool ball. Drop the ball inside your sock and twirl ot round. Joila you now have a homemade flail which you can use if he turns violent. I see your a canadian so feel free to switch the snooker/ pool ball for a hockey puck.

Tip: Only strike the fleshy parts like his hamstring or rump you dont want him having bruises he can show to the coppers. Have fun.

THIS.  Many times over.  "But, I KNOW it happened."  Sure it did - can you PROVE it to anyone? Witnesses, video evidence (as Marshalleck suggested), anything other than you, yourself saying "But, it's this way...."

Blah just put a bar of soap in the sock. Or beat them with a sack of oranges, I heard that leaves no proof behind.

You need to treat other has equal and not has annoyance . Because it's will bite you in the ass eventually. There's also 1 big rule when you live in appartement .No Gossip .  Also ranting at 3 am when there's no noise can make thing really go nasty . Especialy if they can hear you whole rant . Just from the sound of your video gave me a great idea of what type  of resonance you might have . I lived in such a place that i could hear my neighbor typing .

The other day i was just  whining about my neighbor in my backward doing random stuff and my neighbor could hear what i was saying.

You seem rather young . Young ppl like you often come has arrogant with too much pride. Prove them otherwise and don't pretend that you're the messiah and none of it is your fault. Youd be surprised at how much you can annoy other ppl without even noticing it. Calling other idiot or hoser won't help your case. You need to be positive.

They probably think you're making noise for a reason . If you just raise your shield and charge them they will just bring the tank.

Remember  they're people just like you. Today we're so focused on ourself that we forget about other feeling.

I'm certain if I wasn't quiet enough, then the traffic itself would drown me out.  But I deal with his loud music and constant screaming (He fights with his girldfriend A LOT, to the point the whole building can hear their screaming matches) and I have never complained once about his noise. I was hoping for the same in return.
The landlord should be here in an hour though to sort this out.

Point out to the malefactor that you are innocent of the charges levelled against you, go down before him on one knee and swear it upon the Qun and with your honour blade scar the flesh of your chest so that he may know that this is a matter you are willing to take to the blood.

Then say this unto him: Though falsely accused I am neither wrothful nor vengeful, this tribulation though false has only served to strengthen my commitment to the greater good. We are bound by the ties of fellowship and must endure cheek by jowl so let not our compact be riven by inconsequencialities lest our blood rises and we rage until blood has washed the rancour of these wounds clean.

Let us join together and with our shared strength guided by the Qun apprehend the guilty together.

Anaan esaam Qun.

Fairly well I think.  The advise to treat him as an equal and not as an annoyance played into my favor as he did the exact opposite, so I believe the landlord took my words over his. Also, I just got footage of my neighbors down the hall blasting a loud movie and then the guy upstairs stomping. So I'll show that to the guy upstairs as well as the landlord.

Dont fix what aint broke, its a common weapon carried by football hooligans as you can keep it safely tucked way in your trouser pocket , it also doesnt show up when you pass through the metal detector.

Btw if you ever get assaulted down at your local supermarket in the fruit and veg section your second suggestion will come in handy

[Eternal Phoenix]

I had such neighbors before. I threatened them with violence and they stopped, by coincidence, they also moved a month later. Am I a bad person for using threats? Maybe but no one is perfect and everyone in this world is out for themselves so you might as well be out for yourself too.

These same people were being loud and making noise at NIGHT TIME too, they didn't give a damn about me and didn't care that I actually needed to get up in the morning for college, so I applied that same thought to them and they shut up. Such advice is certainly against my Christian beliefs but hey, I'm no saint, I don't think I'm a bastard though.

I generally treat others as they treat me. So selfish people get treated like dirt while people who show respect to others also get treated with respect by me. Humanity p*sses me off a lot of the times. Why do people even need to have music/TV loud? They're not deaf, they're just stupid and think loud music makes them cool.

If you've got the recording of their loud noise, then it's likely the landlord will tell them to STFU and if they continue (and you have proof of them continuing) then he would most likely evict them unless he's an ass**** too.

If the landlord is an ass**** then you could always go for my suggestion....

A good poem about neighbors and walls...


MENDING WALL
Robert Frost

Something there is that doesn't love a wall,
That sends the frozen-ground-swell under it,
And spills the upper boulders in the sun,
And makes gaps even two can pass abreast.
The work of hunters is another thing:
I have come after them and made repair
Where they have left not one stone on a stone,
But they would have the rabbit out of hiding,
To please the yelping dogs. The gaps I mean,
No one has seen them made or heard them made,
But at spring mending-time we find them there.
I let my neighbor know beyond the hill;
And on a day we meet to walk the line
And set the wall between us once again.
We keep the wall between us as we go.
To each the boulders that have fallen to each.
And some are loaves and some so nearly balls
We have to use a spell to make them balance:
'Stay where you are until our backs are turned!'
We wear our fingers rough with handling them.
Oh, just another kind of out-door game,
One on a side. It comes to little more:
There where it is we do not need the wall:
He is all pine and I am apple orchard.
My apple trees will never get across
And eat the cones under his pines, I tell him.
He only says, 'Good fences make good neighbors'.
Spring is the mischief in me, and I wonder
If I could put a notion in his head:
'Why do they make good neighbors? Isn't it
Where there are cows?
But here there are no cows.
Before I built a wall I'd ask to know
What I was walling in or walling out,
And to whom I was like to give offence.
Something there is that doesn't love a wall,
That wants it down.' I could say 'Elves' to him,
But it's not elves exactly, and I'd rather
He said it for himself. I see him there
Bringing a stone grasped firmly by the top
In each hand, like an old-stone savage armed.
He moves in darkness as it seems to me~
Not of woods only and the shade of trees.
He will not go behind his father's saying,
And he likes having thought of it so well
He says again, "Good fences make good neighbors."
