So what is actually the real issue here? Because I really don't beleive that he odd whiff of dope smoke wafting over your way now and then is actually the massive problem you make it out to be. Is it more that their not your ideal sort of neighbours? Just seems like a lot of fuss over very little if you ask me. Live and let live. If it's really that big a deal for you (if you're so sensitive, how on earth do you deal with bbqs, bonfres, other peoples' cooking etc? ), shut your windows. Or, open your mind a bit, go round there for a free toke, and just chill. 8)
Wow, wasn't this established 220 or so posts ago?Sorry must have missed that amoungst all the dope is moral/immoral stuff. Should have known better than try to address the OP's post.
No need to apologise. I was just surprised is all.

So.. she says the stink is awful, and you think it's just the 'odd whiff' and she's some kind of awful snob.
So, despite the fact that you're not there and you haven't smelled it, you think you know all about the situation and are choosing to draw a very negative conclusion about the OP. And then post it.
Nice.
This is still ongoing?
Man up, and talk to them! Jeebus...
I don't think the OP's been back since the first page.. so don't blame her.
I've lived next to habitual weed smokers. Sat outside when they're there hving a puff. It never bothered me at all. Even the skunk I could hardly smell. So I'm surprised that it's such a big issue for the op, and am wondering if it's more to do with the fact that they just don't like their neighbours, and will use any stick to try and beat them with (online of corse). I thik i't smore about the neighbours being 'different' that the op doens't like.
as person who has tried to live healthily and helped others in the past to do so, it really has got to me.
They're not your concenr. Worry about somthing else instead, or just chill out andrelax. Life's too short.
So I'm surprised that it's such a big issue for the op
Still might be better not to judge character eh? You don't know what they are smoking and how their windows/flats are arranged or how the wind blows around their gardens.
Personally I find weed very pungent and acrid and not at all pleaseant even in small quantities, unlike tobacco which can sometimes be somewhat pleasant (when fresh, depending on the blend). Never complained about it though before you jump down my throat.

I just find it very nimbyish. Hardly 'judging character'. Th eop might be incredibly tolerant in many other rspects.

But but but but... 🙄

So what?
I agree with Molgrips. There's no reason to be snotty towards the OP when the full facts aren't known.
I used to live next to a guy who smoked really cheap nasty cigars in his little courtyard thingy and it used to stink out our place just because of the layout of windows and construction methods. Luckily he moved out before I had to pwn him with Bombers.

Quite, Its like a really poor troll that we've still made last 7 pages, was the OP's other moany thread any different?

I think that's exactly what it is. Nimbyism is a pretty negative character trait, and you just attributed it to the OP.
So what?
So you might not mind the smell, others might be more sensitive to it. Same goes for a lot of things. So you don't think it should be a problem based on your own experience, but it might be for her.
the OP's other moany thread
i think it is ok to object to your house stinking of someone elses smoke
FFS most smokers dont smoke in their own home
the OP's other moany thread
alright that was a bit harsh, but they've made 1 statement and buggered off...i need closure people! 👿
Possibly too busy setting up the new supply chain to waste time on internet bike forums

And even if they would, if the property is rented, they usually can't anyway. We have single glazed Victorian sashes on dd's bedroom window. Our last set of neighbours took to having their smokes just outside their back door. You could clearly smell it in his bedroom, even with the windows shut. To be fair, we asked if they wouldn't mind going a bit further down the garden which wasn't a problem - they were horrified when we asked anyway - and instead did all their smoking out the front instead. 🙂
It's easy to tell someone to chill out a bit when you're not in the situation. Constant drip drip of low level anti-social behaviour can start to do your head in, with individual incidences seemingly innocuous when described in isolation. Although, the last place I'd choose to ask would be STW.

She probably found the opinions of a number of cockends on the thread quite offensive and went off to do something else.

Find some way to help her relax?
