I have some concerns.

[ichigomariti]

Hello all.
I was just wanting some opinions and thoughts about this drama I have been caught it, and it has left me very distraught and upset.

So I have been using this site for over 2 months now, and I love it so dearly. I have made some wonderful friends on here, and I cherish you people. This site is so great, and I think it adds so much more fun if you play Animal Crossing while using this forum.
Needless to say, I have never used any other forums as excessively as I have used this one.

Furthermore, I was introduced to this Wifi rating system, and I loved it.

The drama started when this person posted that he wanted this game from the Club Nintendo site that cost 700 coins (which I had and still have). I agreed to get it for him because I have no use for those coins. But, because the site is being discontinued, the site was experiencing heave traffic, so the site kept shutting down, freezing, logging me off, and giving me messages saying "site failure". I reseted my wifi, restarted my computer, and tried to get it to work for days. I tried on my phone and my 3DS to get this item for him, but it wouldn't work.

I explained this to him, and he refused to believe me.
I even forward messaged him several messages of the display messages that I was receiving, yet that wasn't enough.
He constantly annoyed me, harassed me, and berated me about this. This was something I could not control. I tried to explain this to him, but after I did, he called me names and harassed me.
I tried multiple days to get him his game, and the server on that website has been down.
I received remarks of him calling me a "liar and a scammer"
This is something that I could not control, and I tried my best to let this person know that this was out of my hands, and I even apologized.
His harassment led to the point of me having to unfriend him on my 3DS, and eventually add him on my ignore list.

After all this, he left a very negative rating on my profile stating that I was a liar and a scammer. This upest me greatly.

I emailed and contacted the administrators for help. I was bullied and harassed, and I received no help. They did not contact me back.

Now, I cannot complete many trades. I have offered services for free just so I can get my rating up.
I remember that I had helped a girl transfer items between towns for 2 hours for free because I felt like helping.

I have been refused for trades, helping transfers (for free), getting and selling villagers, and even giving things away.

I have tried reprimanding my status by holding item giveaways, villager, trades, free services, and recently, I gave away over 170 TBT as a giveaway.

I am trying to be very nice on here, and I am a very nice person.
I'm just tired of being chastised for having a 94% wifi rating instead of having a 100% rating. I'm tired of having been rejected for this, when in reality, I'm practically being rejected because I received a bad rating for being bullied and harassed.

thats horrible. hopefully gets solved soon

Constantly pm the mods until they finally respond, it's their job to do that, that's why they are mods so if they don't help you they aren't doing their job very well. Hopefully you get then to fix it or take care of this user this hasn't happened to me ever before so I'm not sure if this'll work or not, but I think this is what I would do if that happened to me

not that im trying to be be rude about it, the person in question has 7 negative wifi ratings... why would you trade with someone like that in the first place?


thats why they have the wifi rating, to let you know who and who not to trade with. if you weren't smart enough (that sounds harsh soz) to sus him out via his rating before you agreed to trade with him, then that's your own fault.

 

[Kaiaa]

The admin have been very busy but I'd be happy to help you!

The wifi rating isn't really supposed to be used for non-wifi related actions in the first place. If you end up redeeming the code for the person you're more than welcome to give it to them for what you asked for or you may keep it for yourself or give it to someone else.

 

[Bubblegum K.K]

Wow, that's really horrible. I know that all this isn't your fault. Sometimes people can be jerks.

 

[lizardon]

can't find the post that you are talking about..
anyway, some people are rude, everywhere is the same..

 

[Blaise2003]

I think you need a hug right about now. *hugs*

 

[lizardon]

give you a candy, be strong!

To whichever Admisitrator who was kind enough to delete the bad Wifi Rating, thank you. You made me feel so much better about this ongoing 1 and a half month battle.
I was even rejected today about my wifi rating. I tried to help somebody with a transfer for free, and I was rejected.
Furthermore, thank you. I wish I could say it in person.

 

[laurenx]

Yay!!! ^o^

 

[Bowie]

You do not deserve to go through anything like that. I've been here since 2013 and I just want to let you know that stuff like that doesn't happen very often. When it does, it usually happens to the best of people, simply because those doing it feel like they have the power to do so. Those kind of people are indeed bullies and I'm so glad this has been sorted for you. I used to get bullied in a different Animal Crossing community and I know how bloody ridiculous it is when people think of you as a bad guy because the real bad guys have something against you for equally ridiculous reasons.

 

[ichigomariti]

Yeah!
I'm very happy at this, but I still hate the feeling or rejection and the chastisement that I have received over the past couple of months.
Maybe it will be easier now to help people again. Thank you all.

After reading the post, I remain a bit confused, likely because I am not reading properly. So this guy never paid you, but acted entitled anyway? Or he paid you, but you refunded due to the website problems, and he still threw a hissy fit?

I just have some disagreements with this statement.
At the time I traded with him, he had fewer negative reviews.
Also, because of my mishap with this Wifi System, I disagree with your connotation of the review.

For two months I have been rejected and chastised for my own rating of 94%.
You are right however, that it is people's fault for choosing who they want to trade with. But if someone were in my shoes, I would overlook that one review and trade anyways.

Are you saying that because of my faulty review, you wouldn't trade or accept with me or anyone that has been in my shoes?
Are you saying that "that is why we have the wifi rating, to let you know who and who not to trade with" applies to me because I have a mistaken 94%? Are you agreeing with the people who chastised me about it?

I did find that rude and insulting. So thank you for that chastisement. Even though my problem has been resolved, it hasn't been resolved fully. This needs to be dealt with properly.

I am sorry for the confusion.
He offered to pay me in advance, but I said not to pay me until I could get the code.
He never paid me, but acted entitled as if I had signed a contract or something.

 

[ichigomariti]

Thank you guys for this relief. I guess the only thing I can do now is email the first Administrator and tell him that another has fixed it. Thanks to whoever fixed my problem. I wish I could tell you.
Thanks for the advice everybody.

I took care of it for you. People with Red names are Admin, and people with Blue are Moderators. No thanks is needed I'm only doing what I was hired to do, but I'm happy that you're happy that this situation was taken care of. Thank you for bringing it to my attention

Edit: For those who would have wifi disputes, I only remove ratings that have been given unfairly and those that have been requested removed if the problem was resolved. If you feel you've been given one unfairly and have have evidence to back it up, and after I talk to the other person as well, then I will make a decision on whether or not to remove a rating. Sometimes ratings will not be removed. This isn't because I dislike you in any way, it's because there isn't enough evidence or you deserved the negative rating for your actions. Thank you for understanding

 

[ReXyx3]

It's kinda sad that a mod or admin didn't help you with this at first because they are too "busy" yet they have time to measure and delete signatures that are apparently over 270 pixels. The fact that that's what they put their attention on is quite annoying. I'm so glad you're back to 100% tho! You definitely didn't deserve that negative feedback or to be ignored. ^-^

Do you still help people when the issue that caused their negative Wi-Fi rating was months before?

Keep in mind that when we remove a signature, it doesn't necessarily mean we're going around inspecting every single signature we see down to the pixel ourselves like you might be imagining. There's some er.. very dedicated members who love to send us reports whenever they see an oversized sig and if we see those then we take a look at it.
