and always shuts the porta-potty door softly and quietly early in the morning

Thanks for this!!! It's an amazing thing.  Those porta-potty doors slam quite loudly.  So how do you train 2000 campers to close the door softly in the middle of the night, or early in the morning? 

Set up a noise activated camera and post their picture the next day.  LOL

Should we make some signs that say "Please close door softly at night"

or something like that?

They may not be able to see the sign in the dark.
Better yet would be to insist the porta-potty vendor install hydraulic dampeners so the door can't slam. Thumbs Up

But that would leave too much time for flys and smells...
maybe some foam tape to dampen the noise at the point of contact....
It would still squish closed and help a little,

we could duct tape wads of TP to the contact points to soften the impact, the wads could double as an emergency roll and a slamed door would be a signal that the TP needed to be replentished.   Thumbs Up

How about duct taping pieces of sponge to the door?  We should try it on one. If the experiment is successful, people camping near the portopotties can fix the one's that are in their neighborhood.

That brings me to another thought I had about the porta potties and considerate festivarians - although I had a feeling once the potty mouth got started we wouldn't get off the subject, but since we're still on it....

A funloving and considerate festivarian always ...
leaves an extra roll of TP in the bathroom when they see it has run out, not directly under the urinal, or on the ground, (or in the urinal), but over on the side in the back away from the urinal, but they of couse would also try their best to have good aim.   Wink

I actually do have some foam tape, like the double sided stuff,
Hanging around, I will bring it and see if we can come up with a solution
