Should TBT bells now be abolished?

[Yui Z]

What is the use of a forum currency anyways why can't we stick to acnl bells? Also if you want to a shop and stuff just make everything one person and free. If you missed out just buy it from someone with acnl bells...

Please reply to this post nicely I am not trying to start a fight

Because how would we buy the collectibles in the first place? x3 If we made it all free then they wouldn't be 'collectibles' because they're super easy to get.
It decreases the rarity ect and makes them pointless.

I have a theory I've been working on... I think mods are using TBT bells to mind control regular members.

This is true, I think.

Simple - I just like collecting them. I don't play ACNL too much anymore, and I have to take my obsessive-ness on collecting something elsewhere. TBT Bells are also pretty fun to earn.

For many reasons! (-:
>If we had no forum currency, I highly doubt there be as much posts as there is today. There are people who post a lot for TBT bells as their main reason.
>Things on this forum like collectibles would have less value.
>If they made everything free on this forum (like the collectibles, golden mailbox etc), it wouldn't really be special in a way. :]
>In some cases, you can say TBT bells so bring a balance in TBT forums.

And many more reasons, there are just the reasons I can think on the top of my head now ~

This is true, I think.

Not to mention, alot of shops here depend on TBT bells.
As it is an easier way of payment. Rather than going to the person's town to drop Millions and millions of bells,
alot of people find it more convenient and time-saving. We can't just abolish TBT bells just because 1 or 2 people do not like it.
It's like saying we need to abolish a dollar on paper, because we could just use pennies and quarters.

I wonder how many are already jumping up and down in anguish at my question.Maybe it is an age thing with me , But this morning looking at a couple of TBT bell auctions, the rate offered is the equivalent of 100 TBT being worth 2 mil in game bells. Bell Tree Forum does not encourage duping in any shape or form, but you cannot tell me that paying those sort of prices is being funded by catching bugs overnights, so you are actively encouraging people to dupe so they can offer more and more outrageous prices to buy TBT bells.

YOU PAY FRIGGING 1MIL FOR THEM WHY ARE YOU COMPLAINING

TBT bells appear to have taken over the Forum and are causing a multitude of problems by spawning a generation of some greedy and selfish players, who appear to have started playing the game recently and want everything NOW. Don't they realise that the fun in the game is waiting for and earning the items rather than selling their TBT bells to the highest bidder and buying everything straight away?

IF YOU THINK THEY'VE TAKEN OVER THE FORUM THEN WHY DO YOU BUY THEM AND MAKE 100000000000000000 THREADS TO DO SO?

I collect TBT bells, it was just for the fun of it, but it isn't fun any longer and I don't do anything constructive with my TBT bells in any case except buy the odd collectible to use as a GIVAWAY. So why do others collect them? There is a limit to how many one needs for a name change and somehow upping the exchange rate just for the sake of it seems rather a senseless thing to do.

FOR THE FUN OF IT? ARE YOU KIDDING? YOU PAY SO MUCH WTF?

I could be totally alone in thinking that the TBT bell system needs an overhaul of major proportions, what it is now cannot possibly be what it was originally intended for!

Honestly maybe if you didn't buy them for so high a price their maintenance would go down?

Go ahead, kill me for saying all that, but it's true.

They would be rare I did not say anything about the amount given out... 5 per restock perhaps? If you got one you'd be lucky which makes them how you say "Collectibles"

The whole idea is to purchase them for a limited time, but in a fair way that you at least have a chance. 5 items per restock isn't fair.

Geezus, calm down. We don't need to capslock. It's his opinion, and we should work it out in a more formal and proper way,
Rather than capslocking each other to death.

Stealing this to add it onto my answer. ;D

Thanks. I'm just so annoyed at the nerve of the OP for making this xD

Careful! Someone could get hurt with your capslocking! I think I got a little injured in the process of reading this too.

DO YOU NOT LIKE MY CAPSLOCKING?

 

[Farobi]

I think we should all calm down and get back on topic

Everytime I see capslocking, I imagine the person shouting at the top of their lungs, lol.

I think we should all shut up in general and let this thread die, seeing as it's bothering so many people. Look, see I'm doing my bit now. *Leaves thread* :3

I think it's just a genuine way to make posts look meaningfully rude meanwhile getting a point across using oversized lettering and rage.

My post was actually more inappropriate so I edited it lol. Yup, I reported this thread already. I don't think there would be much agreement on OP's side to begin with, unfortunately
