Someone left me a negative Wi-Fi feedback because we were talking about a trade, and I wasn't able to get back to her for about a day because I was feeling very under the weather. I'm very upset because of this, as I don't want people to see it and not want to trade with me. Any advice? :(​
 
I asked a mod for permission to send that feedback, and they allowed me to do it. I'm sorry you were feeling under the weather, but the lack of communication was extremely frustrating, especially when you were talking to other users.
If you have any questions, please PM me to address the issue privately. Thank you!

Tell a mod, and they'll help! I had this happen once, I have a short term memory, and forgot. The person left me negative feedback, we did the trade, she gave me positive, I PM'd a mod to have it removed, and they did!
 
contact a mod to get it taken down because they gave you negative feedback unfairly. it says here that feedback should only be given after in-game interactions, which you obviously didn't have.
 
Not all negative feedback needs to be taken down, sometimes you just have to take it and learn from it.

And no, feedback can also be given from a lack of in-game trading (which is what appears to be the situation). It's kinda dumb tbh how everyone instantly assumes that the presence of any negative feedback is the result of a mistake or someone being unfair...
 
Report it! When you report things all the mods see it but it takes them a longer time to get to PMS!

You left them an unfair WIFI rating back so really you pretty much worsened the problem! If you just reported it you wouldn't get in trouble but now YOU left a unfair rating back!
 
I swear you're only allowed to leave negative feedback if you've actually played with the player?

The entire point of the wifi feedback tool is to root out the unsafe/annoying players so that we have a preconceived warning of what they might do. Surely leaving feedback for someone on the basis of a hypothetical trade is abusing the tool?
 
Feedback System
General Principles
The feedback system is used on The Bell Tree for Animal Crossing online gameplay, Animal Crossing transactions, and forum bell transactions. Feedback should only be given for legitimate reasons. A negative rating should not be made as a response to feedback itself. Illegitimate ratings can be reported to the moderators and abuse of the feedback system may result in suspension.

You broke the rule....

Agreed. Leaving her negative feedback as a response to getting it wasn't the appropriate thing to do.

I also thing that despite this, Kayla's negative feedback she received should be removed, since giving someone neg feedback because they didn't message you back is illegitimate and frankly a bit immature.

I thought the same thing. It'd be good if a mod could clarify the situation... :confused:

For example, in an auction if someone wins and then doesn't communicate in any way to the auctioneer thus not paying for/collecting the goods, it is legitimate to give them a negative wifi rating even though they haven't actually played together. I see this as a similar situation.

I looked through the rules and didn't see anything related to this.
 
Oh thanks! This is for everyone When hosting an auction for your items or moving villagers, you must follow through with the sale unless you explicitly stated that the auction results are subject to be changed. Otherwise, the auction winner may give the host negative feedback for failing to complete the sale. The auction winner may also receive negative feedback if he or she fails to follow through with the purchase. Include as many rules with your auction as you feel fit, such as starting bid price, time limit, and bidding increments.
 
Feedback should be used for transactions that go wrong too. The rule says don't use it as a "response," referring to a response to other feedback.

That being said, I removed both feedbacks as it looks like it was made out of impatience.

Thanks, I'm sorry for leaving the negative feedback for them as well. I thought that's what you should do, but I see how it's wrong now. Thanks for clarifying! :)
