What makes a good neighbor
Unless it's during an event, I'm not that bothered if neighbours visit. For me it's more important that they have well designed towns that provide me inspiration. Also unconventional uses for items

I look for neighbors who visit regularly when it matters OR who have great towns. Occasionally, a neighbor will fit both categories -- this is even better.
For this event, it obviously helps to have neighbors who visit regularly. Most of my neighbors are really awesome about visiting, so I'm flush with emblems and don't really mind the inactive neighbors. That said, I have had to cut some inactives and a few parasites recently. Specifically, there is something un-neighborly about tapping the lodge once and not coming back. I don't mind it if you're still trying to get the prizes, but if you're over 35k and have all of the prizes, there's no reason to play in the most overly douchey way possible when neither of us need the extra points. Your neighbors have helped you get to where you are, so have the courtesy to come back and finish your taps.
One guy in particular was a monster visitor before this event. I noticed he was only tapping the lodge once each evening, so I put him on hide for a week in the hopes he would change his ways. I finally had to cut him loose as he was pushing 50k emblems and kept at it.
