How do you feel about people walking through your campsite?

I get off my chair, walk up to them and punch them as hard as I can in the face, men, women, kids, bears, dogs, squirrels, birds, mt.lions, raccoons, skunks, cats, park police, bees, I don't care. If they say, growl or anything back I punch them in the head again. This has worked well for me over the years.

I don`t mind walking through other peoples campsites.....they don`t own the site and should be happy I`m in their presence!

I want to be there when you guys meet....


hopefully there are no firearms involved....


Nope no guns! Just my 2 cannons!!!!

What a rookie! Do you think you are the first person to shoot cannons at me while I am camping and then have to punch the cannonballs out of the air mid flight as the enter my space? You need to do better than that. Also I will punch those cannons back to Gettysburg

We had a funny experience this weekend. While sitting outside we heard loud voices in the woods behind us. About 8 adults and kids came out of the woods into our campsite. They seemed to be quite inexperienced hikers (flip flops) and had gotten lost. They were tired and thrilled to see campers. They kept telling us they were so sorry to walk on our site. We were all laughing together reassuring them it was fine and asked if they needed anything. They just needed to find their campsite.

As long as they bring me a cold beer I don't have a problem with it.

I go camping to chill out and relax, not get worked up about minor stuff like someone walking through "my" campsite. I usually give them a "how's it goin'?"

x2 its just not worth getting upset over. Unless they are waking directly next to your camper

Luckily nothing came of it...just boggles my mind how rude and self centered people can be some times. If she would have pulled up and said, "Hi, would you mind if I parked here for an hour or so while my grandson uses the playground? My knee is really bothering me..." I probably would have said, sure it's no problem. But to just pull into my spot...3 foot from the side of my camper and proclaim she can park wherever she wants...no. That's not cool.

Exactly. It is amazing how well things go if people are polite and ask.

If they are a child, I just ignore it. If they are an adult, I invite them to have a beer with me. I could care less if they walk through our camp or not.

damn, I like this. I need to stock up the fridge for this weekend then.
