This is getting fucking stupid.
Having placed a suitably worded poster to the inside of the main entrance to this building, offering an amnesty for the return of my stolen mountain bike, I am now angered further to discover that not only has the notice been forcibly removed from the door, but that the door was left ajar once again. It is bad enough that I have become the victim of a motiveless crime, and an inside job at that, but that I now have to contend with at least one neighbour who gives the impression that not only are the communal areas theirs to command (by theirs, I am referring to one individual), but that said individual feels they are somehow superior enough to warrant the removal of my polite but firm notice. Just who do these c#nts think they are?
Right now, I am more annoyed and frustrated at feeling powerless to prevent this from continuing further. Resolution must be sought. And soon. The last two tenants in this apartment were pressured into leaving because of this neighbour, or so I have been informed by another party. I am left trying to ascertain why this person is allowed to remain living here when it is obvious we are dealing with an mentally unstable person here. I feel the removal of the notice is almost as bad as the theft of the bike, however, it does serve at least one useful purpose. Why would anyone innocent of the crime react in this way? There were no names on the notice - theirs or mine. In fact, I may consider uploading the notice to my host account later to see what other people think. There were no insulting remarks other than the obvious ones, and even these were worded as appropriately as I could. I feel as though I am being forced to 'put up and shut up' here, and it is not a nice place to be. The landlords have been made aware of the theft, and I am keen to find out all I can about this other tenant. Said individual is not going to bully us into vacating, particularly as we have done absolutely nothing to warrant this unacceptable behaviour. This individual referred to the last tenants as 'up themselves' from the very moment we were seen moving in. I found this rather interesting, to say the least. I then learned that this apartment was empty for over a year prior to us taking the tenancy. This is all getting too much, and I will not stand for it. I am not saying that the neighbour in question is directly responsible for the theft, but that a certain amount of collusion must have taken place. As stated in my previous post, I live on the first floor of the building, and the only people aware of the bike being there are the other two neighbours and any visitors they may have. It may well have been an opportunist incident, but whoever stole my bike must have known it was there to take the risk of entering the property, creeping up to the first floor, taking the bike and leaving. The bike is not visible from outside.

It looks like this is going to be one hell of a bumpy ride from hereonin, dear readers.
Subsequently, your suggestions would be most welcome. Obviously, I do not wish to fuel an already smouldering fire, as I am not even certain of what sparked this off in the first place. Suitable negotiations are unlikely too, as this person is most unapproachable, not to mention downright shifty. The past reputation of this character means I must tread carefully. We are dealing with an unstable person here.

Thank you in advance of your valuable time and energies.
