Bad AC Experiences?

Wow, I never knew that Club Tortimer was that bad. I actually purchased a membership whilst I was on holiday, but I had no internet at the time so I couldn't really use it, but shortly after I came back I restarted my town so I lost it. But after hearing all of your bad experiences of it, it makes me not want to try it out now so... ;;

I've not really had any bad experiences, though. I mean, I've had careless people in the past before telling me to weed their town for them because the TT'd like 300 years into the future or something ridiculous like that or running over my hybrids. I was never too keen on letting them come back into my town... But that was all so long ago. In truthfulness, I have never really had an awful experience. I think it's just disrespectful when I see people stealing and running over peoples towns or disobeying the rules of their town... So what if it may seem stupid or harsh in your opinion, it's their rules and how they want to play, so just respect it, you know?

Although by the looks of it we have a pretty nice and respectful community here on The Bell Tree so I'd never really mind letting people visiting my town.
 
Isabelle not letting me place a PWP where I want it.

Rocks.

But mainly just when I stupidly add someone I don't know very well and open my gate to all friends, they come over and don't leave even though I ask them. I get very paranoid and just switch the wi-fi off and just act like it was an accident. The only reason I get so paranoid is because I had stuff on the ground outside of my house because I was cleaning it and my storage out, as well as hybrids, and I know that someone I had in my town ran over some hybrids and took a few things. Luckily I managed to disconnect before they could leave, but it was a very close one.

Edit: Also another thing is how I both love and hate how villagers can move in from a friend's town. Twice I've had villagers I very much disliked move into my town because my friends neglected to tell me they were moving out. One time my friend came to my town and I didn't even think it would matter, but apparently their villager still came over to my town anyway. So now whenever I am going to visit or have a visitor, I'm sure to ask that person several times if any of their villagers are moving out or not.

Only had one bad experience as far as I can remember (beside ones on Club Tortimer)

It was yesterday and my 'acquaintance' asked me if I wanted to play and I gave him a rare wetsuit and hat, and then he asked if he should rest. Um, hell no. And I told him not to run in my town and he ran and stepped on my white carnations. I ended it anyway and pretended it was an internet problem.
 
I've never had any bad experiences in my town so far because truthfully I'm reaaally careful about who I let into my town.
I've had a bad experience about 99% of the time I've gone to club Tortimer though. It gets really annoying when I'm island hopping for rare items and someone disconnects me because I didn't want to tour with them. Or when I'm trying to catch beetles and people purposefully scare them off.

Also, in particular there's something that I was wondering about- if it just happens to me or other people too.
I'm a guy and I have a male character, but I have a girls' hairdo. This results in countless people asking me why I have an "lolllol weeerd girly hairstyl" and if I'm "really a boy."

My TPC card is blue. My name is Judas. Why do you keep asking if I'm a boy or not? And also it's none of your freaking business. Maybe I'm really a girl who likes to play as a guy? Don't ask me personal things you stranger. Grr.

Guess my question was, has your gender ever been questioned because of something simple like a hairstyle? :/
 
Running over and ruining hybrids. I like to run and so far I've ruined a jacob's ladder and a blue rose when I barely have any hybrids to begin with. This is me being stupid though. lol.
 
At Club Tortimer, there was a guy who cut down all the trees except one. Then when I was trying to get a bug, he scared it away. I left immediately.

There are some pretty bad ppl on Club Tortimer, but there are some good experiences, too. A lot of ppl I meet there are actually pretty nice!
 
At Club Tortimer (especially in French Islands cause I'm french) I have some bad experiences : once I arrived there was 2 persons already in the island and thay locked me : they opened their "case" and I couldn't leave the island (they told "oh you have a lot of medals! No we lock you hahaha") ... So I would have tu cut the wireless and miss my items I'd just bought :-(

After that, I've met, in foreign island, american's homeless (yes!!) but a rich homeless with a crown and he asked me money! It was funny but in the same time I find it space to go island in order to ask money ... :-/

But what is sad that when I meet Japanese or Korean people : sometimes I can't read them it's not the good caracters and we can't discuss :-(

In my town I've never had bad experiences because we are some crossers in a french forum (in Facebook) and we exchange each other so we know whos is who and respect our cities :)
 
I only let one of my close real life friends come into my town, and she's respectful about it so I'm fine with her :)

My bad experience was on Club Tortimer when some random 10 year old (she acted like it anyway.) tried to hold me and some guy hostage unless we gave her bells and joined her tour, so I turned off my internet... Eh. I don't spend too much time on club tortimer anymore.
 
Actually, no, really. I was always wary back in the day on WW (when the only animal crossing site I visited was ACC, which I now hate) and I had never ever encountered "bad" people. On Club Tortimier I'll admit I have met some uh...people I don't care for? But I have never ever had a terrible experience.

I don't let many people visit my town anyways - I know that I'm a very considerate person when it comes to other people's stuff, and I may be stupid but I know better than to trust every single person I meet, as much as I'd like to.

So umm....knock on wood? Nothing yet.
 
I have several from when I used to frequent the gamefaqs trade board :( I was trading Doc for another lazy, and one kind person offered me stitches in exchange. I also offered him Chrissy for free because he was so generous, but I already had a trade thread up for Chrissy at the time. I informed the people who had offered for her that I decided to give her away to the other trader; one user pm'd me calling me a "greedy Jew" and the like because he felt entitled to her for whatever reason. I hadn't accepted any trades for her, so tbh I felt it was uncalled for and just plain vindictive :(
 
Someone once stole a couple of golden roses from me. I wasn't even mad to be honest.
It just was unexpected because no one has ever stolen from me before.
 
In Club Tortimer, a japanese guy was stalking me and calling me names. I don't understand Japanese well but I could regconise the word "Baka" :mad:
 
Baka = Idiot if I remember correctly.

While what he called you was very rude and uncalled for, you really shouldn't have offered to give away a villager you've already offered up for a trade, regardless of the fact you hadn't accepted any offers yet. It's unprofessional and you basically wasted the time and resources of everyone who made offers for Chrissy. So it's understandable for people to be upset that you started a thread and then just turned around and gave it to someone who wasn't even taking part. It's like they were all taking part in a contest to win her, and she instead was going to go to someone who hadn't even participated at all! I know that would have ruffled my feathers. Though I would never be as rude as that individual was.

But that's just my opinion on that sort of thing so w/e.
 
I was scammed out of 3m for Shep once. Another pet hate I have is when I am trading/selling things with people and they pay in 99k bags and I end up missing bells. :(

Well, the most you can do at a time is 99K--but are you sure nobody leaves a bag at the end with the rest? Like when I give a million, I do 10 bags of 99K and then an 11th bag of 10K to make up for the missing 1's.
 
I have two AC NL copies, I got stitches to be in boxes to transfer him to my second town and i put my ac nl on my brothers 3ds xl, his time was wrong which made stitches leave :/
