BB gun (slingshot works good too and makes a better more challenging game out of it), fish oil (or exlax) and nails....solves all those issues. Not part of your RV park assault camping kit?

Since this happened at two places I've been to; teenage pranks. Seems bored teenagers with little parental supervision go and turn on all the hot water faucets in the shower houses, then you go to take a shower, and - no hot water. My wife tells me it's not just the boys doing it either, she's gone to take a shower and found all the hot water left running in the women's side too.

I would think automatic shut off shower valves would be a good solution; and cheaper than reheating all the water you lost.

Somebody mentioned a deaf eye. That's not how it goes 'bro.
I get if someone has super bright lights that shine in your window, but if it's not impacting you, why even care?

My biggest pet peeve at RV parks has been horrendously loud diesel pushers pulling in right next to me late at night, waking me up then continuing to run at high idle for like 30 to 40 minutes. I don't have anything nice to say about those people or to them. Most end up leaving the next day because they were just passing through, but it has happened to me a handful of times and is ridiculous.
I really enjoyed traveling around and seeing different places and RV parks when I had purchased my 5th wheel 10 years ago. Most places weren't even 50% full, many less than 25%. You'd have empty spaces all around you. Now they're stacked up like cordwood. I don't enjoy it anymore so I quit. I only use my private campsite when I want to go RVing. There's plenty of space and none of the annoyances.

What about in the AM when they start the engine and let it idle for a long time before leaving???

A common irritation & totally unnecessary.
Ever seen construction equipment or farm equipment started started & left to run for 15-30 minutes before running up the RPMs & put to work?
Start it up, put your shore power stuff away, idle on out of CG. By the time you get to the road the engine is ready for whatever.

That does get old, I start, hook up and idle out to the road,,, the 6.7 is ready to run at that point..no need to idle any longer , unless in a class A and have an air leak and waiting for the chambers to fill
