Yes, we can still see who is viewing profiles regardless of visibility status.



Eh, not really.

I have another question. If I disable PMs, is that going to delete all of my messages? I don't want all of my messages deleted because of PMs being disabled.

Just tested it out for you, it does not delete your PM's.

That's good. Just like how VMs never get deleted if disabled then enabled.

One more question for today. Is it okay to host giveaways that require sending VMs before a specific time? I wanted to host a giveaway where someone sends a VM to me about what they like best and worst of ACNL, and be the last poster before time to win. I don't know if that is considered spam or advertisement, or if it's okay. I want to be creative with my giveaways.

I don't see why not.

reasons why a thread would be deleted instead of locked?

I'd have to guess the whole thread would have to be absolutely horrendous for it to be deleted.
I've never seen any threads get deleted except for them bots spamming their lovelines and printing out certificates threads.

Usually:

• Accidental duplicate threads
• Created by a spam account
• Extremely inappropriate content

Note we also sometimes merge threads if there are two on a similar topic that have already received a lot of responses before we've been made aware of them.

On another site, I knew a forum moderator that would delete threads mainly to have fewer pages on forum in order to browse threads easier. He didn't want a large forum so he misused the delete feature. He's even deleted active threads. I'm glad you guys don't do that for that reason.

have you considered changing or adding more emoticons to the awful gyroid ones we have?

Sorry I'm new here. What is tbt?

Sorry I'm new here. What is tbt?

TBT is the virtual currency here. You can earn TBT in a multitude of ways, including posting, selling items, and winning contests. You can use TBT to redeem items for Animal Crossing or for "collectibles" in the shop tab. [Click here]

Good question. All I know is, you get more for creating threads

What order do collectibles appear under your profile? Is it the date they were originally bought or the date they were gifted to you? I got confused since my apple says 08-08-2015 somewhere but my Mote of Flame says 07-30. s:

I also saw someone with a red birthstone appear after a not of flame - how did they do that? :S

Yeah it's the date they were bought from the shop. This goes for everyone, so even if you trade with/buy from someone, it will still keep the same date.

For example, if someone were to give you a cherry collectible that they bought from the shop back in 2013, it would forever have a 2013 timestamp regardless of when you received it.

I still don't have an Apple >.<
