Nearly everyone I've interacted with in the AC Fandom has been beyond sweet to me.
I've always had great experiences with trades, and about every person I wifi with I'd like to wifi again with just to hang out because they seem that nice. Well today I didn't have such a great experience on tumblr while trading.

I decided to make this thread so you can post about trades gone wrong or anything that has ever upset you in the AC fandom.

If you tell stories about trades falling through, etc. don't include the other persons info at all! Thanks!

The only truly bad thing that has ever happened to me from letting someone visit my town was, that they brick seeded my Wild World game. Dx
 
Just the horror stories I hear online makes me really paranoid that every single person is going to do everything they can to steal my stuff or annoy me.
The only negative experience I've actually had myself involved Club Tortimer. One guy was purposely scaring away the bugs and fish I saw, and another was hitting on me. Not too big of a deal though, since I could just go home.
 
Not really a super bad experience but I was helping someone I follow on tumblr out because they needed to get petitions done in another town and they wanted some apples.

They had gotten themselves about four stacks of apples and about five of the signatures when my internet connection, being the less-than-good thing it is, decided to cut out on me. It reset her progress entirely. I apologised profusely and let her come again and luckily, it went okay that time.

It was still annoying though.
 
95% of the time, everyone has been great. It's just a pity that a few bad people can spoil your experiences and make you cautious about visitors, etc.

I've only had 2 bad experiences really. The first was a new friend of my daughters ACNL game came to my town and wanted to 'look around' but told me to carry on doing what I was doing. She ran off, stole a few hybrids then asked me to save then invited me to her town. I checked the minute she left where my hybrids were gone so I know it was her that had took then. When I turned up at her town, I caught her planting my hybrids. LOL.

The other time I was trading one of my villagers for a dream villager. My town was full and the traders wasn't so the plan was for the trader to come to my town, collect my villager, leave, then I TT to the next day so I could get my villager. As soon as the trader had collected my villager, they said they had to work on TTing my dreamie out - I waited over 3 hrs, and the trader said my dreamie was being stubborn and not leaving. Haven't heard from them since.

However, saying that, I posted a request thread asking for that dreamie, and at the end of a very long day looking for my dreamie someone here PMed me and gave me my dreamie for free! :D

Faith restored. :)

The ones I've completed trades with here and on Gamefaqs were awesome and went without a hitch.

My only bad experiences were on Club Tortimer. I've had someone beg me for a million bells and when I said no, this girl called me names, told me I sucked and then disconnected. Other moments were just a bunch of annoying, immature kids there, though majority of the time, that is what CT is made up of.

Ugh, I hate Club Tortimer- I don't go on there anymore. And you're right, almost everyone on there is so childish. My last visit to Club Tortimer I saw a girl giving out her cell phone number to a guy she was talking to on there. That's so dangerous!
 
Oh, and I don't think this would count as a bad experience- but I get really annoyed when someone has a villager that isn't very popular, ie.) Drift the Jock Frog and in exchange only will take their dream villagers like Marshal, Julian or Lolly. It's so inconsiderate, and the chances someone would give up Marshal for Drift is very low (unless Drift is your dream villager). So the poor villager gets sent to the void, because of the persons own selfishness thinking that someone will give them their dream villager for a villager nobody wants! Ugh!

The only bad experience I've had was the drama between my (AC) friends. It made it harder for me to play.
 
The only one I had was someone who came to my town for just a few perfect apples and then ended up taking baskets and baskets without even asking and tried leaving without saying bye so I switched off the wifi and deleted her LOL. I'd give her a bad rating on here but I forgot her username, eh
 
It's not a big deal but a couple of sisters (annoying brats really), came to my town through some other friend and they stole my hybrids. I didn't notice at first but then they were always trying to talk to me and almost cry if I ignored them. I helped them a lot and they repaid me by stealing! They're gone from my friend's list those two!
 
Negative experiences with Animal Crossing? Oh, you don't know the half of it! Telling you the tale of my own experience would be far too risky.

aggh i know right?! i freely have random hybrids and jacob's ladders everywhere, and i get so paranoid that someone will just take them. i don't want to follow that person around the town either because that's kind of creepy, lol.
but anyways, my bad experience was that someone really wanted to do a tour with me at Club Tortimer. they were constantly like, "omg tour tour tour tour" i already did two tours with that person. and then i said no because there were a lot of beetles on the island and i was trying to catch a lot of them. it was just like omg jackpot everywhere so i didn't feel like doing a tour. then they got all childish and start chopping down all the trees. then i just got mad and left. i've never really had any other bad experiences except for that.
 
Club Tortimer:

"Where are you from? How old are you? HOW OLD ARE YOU?! HOW...OLD...ARE...YOU?!?!? TELL MEEEE!!! You can't leave until you tell me your age! HOW OLD?!?!? Be my friend?"

*wi-fi switch*
 
Minor Club Tortimer stuff (people temporarily keeping me captive there, only lasted a few mins) is the worst I've had. I only go to Club Tortimer to look for items, so I hurry in and hurry out to minimize the chance of people holding me captive there.
 
Only thing I've really had trouble with is one person came and dug up all my things.

Also, is Club Tortimer really that bad? I've hopped islands tons of times and I haven't encountered the bell beggars or odd questions once. I've had a few people ask me for FCs and ONE person chopped everything down and dug everything up cuz "she was bored" but other than that I haven't hit what everyone has been talking about.
 
Oh here is one

Once upon a time,
There was an moron named Roxer9000,
He grew hybrids!
He ran over a hybrid He was about to give to his friend.
 
The only bad experiences I've had so far are people being annoying or disrespectful when I go to Club Tortimer.
 
A person or two I've come across have a major sense of entitlement with me when it comes to my bells and items because I have a lot of them and I'm usually very generous. I can't stand entitled attitudes though.
