People Knocking on my door while I'm not home?

Ummmmm... should it be possible for someone to knock on my door and try to get in if I'm not home?  It has happened 3 times in the last couple of minutes, and I'm way out in Ix... I submitted it as a bug, but I wanted to get ya'll's opinion.  Is this something that you've seen before?

  • Yes, this is perfectly normal. It's to allow friends in to share in the bounty of your yard or to have them drop things off, etc. Just press "No" when the prompt comes up if you don't know the person or don't want to let them in.

  • Weird, never saw it before today... must just have been a fluke that that random person banged on my door when I was out.

  • It happens often with me. If it's someone I don't know I ignore but if it's one of my close friends I allow them in.

  • Yep, be careful letting strangers in.  They can take anything you have laying around while you're not there...

  • I banged on someone's door by accident while trying to catch an elusive butterfly ... there is, unfortunately, no unknock, or "Ooops" command to let the homeowner know you aren't casing the joint =)

  • I've done the same (accidental knocking).  Thankfully for me, the homeowners were offline every time.  I'm sure I'll feel very mortified if it happens again and the owner is logged in. D:
