Neighborhood Features - A Plea from an Aranna Homeowner

We at 5100 Aratikaya Kaya Block live our happy Glitchen lives as friendly and sharing neighbors to one another. Why, we've even taken the neighborhood relations one step higher as we attempt to beautify our neighborhood with garden gnomes to welcome guests from outside our neighborhood, adorn our very homes and doorsteps with ornaments we find visually appealing, and even go as far as leaving treats outside our neighbors' doors for them to appreciate and enjoy.

This is, however, not without peril or risk.

Several Glitchen days ago, our neighborhood has been lovingly visited by other Glitches and while they are perfectly at liberty to take anything that is lying unclaimed on the ground (or on the trees for our case), we have found it rather disappointing that such claim was made without an attempt to give something back for the seeming generosity of the Glitches who have left behind said items in the neighborhood (even if it was not meant for those who took it). While our local homeowners have decided to attempt some meager safeguard by putting in sufficient greetings and notices for our dear visitors, I come before the rest of the Glitchen and to the Giants themselves with a plea:

We would like to request that all the items being left within a neighborhood block be only for the people who live in that neighborhood block.

We strive to become a happy and harmonious neighborhood and I'm sure all neighborhoods would want to foster good relations with their neighbors. I believe it would be for the betterment of everyone if said feature would be granted possibility.

Thank you very much. Other Glitchen are free to share other problems and experiences they have had with their respective neighborhoods and suggest or add their thoughts into the matter as well. May the Giants hear our plea :)

  • It hasn't happened in our neighborhood YET, but we have had several exchanges of food/drink among neighbors, and I rather like walking out the door and discovering the occasional gift.

  • Yeah, it really feels heartwarming to emerge from your house on a new day and find a couple of drinks and food on your doorstep - also to go up your neighborhood and leave stuff outside your neighbors' door :)

    And trust me when it happens, it's disappointing. We've gone so far as to station a garden gnome (courtesy of the guy who lives near the streetsign) that announces 'whenever you take stuff, please give something back in return' just so people would know :(

    I believe in solidarity between neighbors, and I hope the Giants understand our plea

  • I agree with this suggestion.  I left some presents for a friend who lives in a different block from me, and she never got any of them because thieves came along and raided all the houses.  Same with housewarming presents I left for my neighbours in Mucid Memes when I lived there.  =(
