No, what you did it suggest the OP reward a neighbour who is putting themselves out to be difficult with a payment of £400 pw for up to 2 years - that is the daftest thing I have read on here in a long time.
This smacks of someone who has made a daft suggestion in a post and then has to run with it just because the alternative is to admit they weren't thinking straight when they posted it.
If you read further and subsequent posts you'll see the suggestion was to make the point.This smacks of someone who has made a daft suggestion in a post and then has to run with it just because the alternative is to admit they weren't thinking straight when they posted it.
Which, a good few on here agree with. Greasing wheels isn't daft. It's what developers do everyday of the week. Why should this be different?
Had you suggested offering them 'something' to ease their pain that would have been different - you didn't.

Take the post in the context of the replies and you'd clock I threw a figure out at random.
A starting point for discussion if you will. If the Op will have a home worth £4m after, it's easily fair. If it's £200k, then clearly not.
But, you keep playing the man and not the point. It's far easier than engaging in a discussion.

The Party Wall Act specifically requires works to be carried out so as to mitigate unnecessary inconvenience to neighbour's. It also covers costs and compensation for damage.Take the post in the context of the replies and you'd clock I threw a figure out at random.

Given this legal framework exists, paying significant sums to try and avoid a Party Wall dispute doesn’t make a great deal of sense unless works are time critical. Particularly on the level you were suggesting.

So you have made a ridiculous suggestion of rewarding an unnecessarly difficult neighbour with £400pw for up to two years.When people laughed at it you then claimed that was just a starting point for discussion and you really didn't suggest that.
When that didn't work you then raised the value of the property to make your ridiculous suggestion look less ridiculous.
When that didn't work you claimed somebody not accepting your BS as playing the man and not the point.
Don't worry, I think you got away with it without anyone noticing
