I think people need to lighten up.. While I agree people should be considerate, it is a two way street.
I know I've shown up after dark to a campsite, and there's nothing worse than nosy neighbors staring at you while you are trying to be quiet, rush and get setup properly so the kids can get to bed.
Maybe you should consider going over and helping out, that would make everyone happy, as you won't be starring at headlights, and the camper will be set up quicker.
I've noticed common courtesy/respect has gone out the window.. I'm apparantly part of the "me" generation, yet I've noticed it's the older generations that prejudge everyone.
Just this past weekend, we were camping with a group, and the sites were not designed for 30+ ft units. There were other campers that were in the sites across from us that were less experienced, and were having issues backing up. Instead of staring and making fun of them, we got off our asses, and helped them. Weird concept..
Oddly enough, most of the "other" campers we helped out, greatly appreciated the help, and specifically said, most people just spectate, which causes more frustrations on their side. So someone who normally is considerate, might have forgotten to turn off their headlights because they are rushing, trying to get setup.
