How does one check the messages on their collectibles? I think I had unusual symbols on some of mine so I'm not sure if I'm looking at the wrong place or if they were deleted

I think that in order to get the collectibles transferred over, the staff had to remove messages on collectibles, especially ones that had emoticons or unusual symbols on them. In order to view them, however, I think you just hover over the collectible (or perhaps try clicking on it?). Hope this helps. ^^

EDIT: They also said they would restore messages to collectibles on a case by case basis if you make a thread in the Contact The Staff board.

I've hovered on everyone's collectible in the last page of this thread and nothing came up. Also when I clicked, everyone had collectibles that either had a default message or blank that's why I thought maybe that's not how I check check the messages since it said that only ~150 people had theirs deleted. I'm aware that I can contact the staff, but just wanted to make sure that mine were deleted before making a thread there ^^

That’s interesting. I tried clicking, holding, and everything on your collectibles just now, but can’t see any messages. I don’t know if it’s just because I’m using a tablet or because your messages were deleted. Maybe there’s someone here who is more knowledgeable about this issue.

Thanks for your help Riley I'll send in a request to have them added back, the blank ones were probably ones that had messages on previously

Hello!
I have a little doubt. I've been waiting since the last update to see if this returned, but it doesn't seem to be happening.
Sorry if this has been asked before, but... my friendcode doesn't appear under my picture anymore. If I remember correctly, it used to. Nowadays I only see users with the Switch code showing, but not for the 3ds anymore. Has this been removed definitely? I tried several times updating my profile info and such, but no luck.

I'm still waiting an answer for this, please... I just want to know

I hope this is the right place to ask this:

Why do I have so many TBT? I mean I'm definitely not complaining, I just legitimately have no idea how I got so many. I looked at the transactions and it went suddenly from 0 to 1000 for no discernible reason.

I kinda want to trade them, but I also don't want to get in trouble in case it's some kind of glitch. Is it because I'm an older player? Sorry if this is a dumb question, I just wanna know.

Where are my old collectibles and how do i equip them? I've scoured my settings but so far I've seen nothing XD

And isn't there an official TBT shop where I can buy like, avatar expansions? Too dumb to find that

Were people with the avatar extensions refunded yet?

Your old collectibles should be under ”shop” and then under “inventory”. From there, you will have to click on settings for a collectible, click hidden, save it, and then click settings again for that collectible and click active and save it again in order to get it to display properly. TBT shop is at the upper right corner of the forums, in-between the search bar and notifications bar.

Hope this helps. ^^

Yes. In order to get the refund from an avatar width extension, you’ll have to go to shop in the upper right corner of the website, go to inventory, and then go to the avatar width extension add-on that you have. From there, you’ll have to click “sellback” and you’ll earn 300 TBT if you have had your avatar width extension since before 2020, and if you bought it in 2020 I believe you can make a thread in the Contact the Staff board to earn even more TBT back from it.

Hope this helps. ^^

Thanks! I was thinking it would be done manually so I didn't realize we had to do it ourselves. Thanks

Is there any way to hide your inactive collectibles from public view?

Hello,
I'm sure you get this question a lot and I'm sorry to bother you with this, but I haven't found a thread that truly explains it. (Feel free to only answer with a link to one C: )

How does someone get collectibles. I have seen that you can trade them, but how do you get them? Buy them for the bells on this site? (The bells I get by posting a lot, correct?) If yes, is there like a store where I could buy them?

But some seem very special. Could they be obtained by winning certain contests?

And do they have any other use than being cute or here to trade? (For example: the birthstone can show others in what month you were born or the flowers what flowers you have on your island?)

I'm sorry if this is worded very confusing^^'

Have a nice day!

Hi, does anyone know to center/space text out on signatures/posts? I tried to put spaces in my signature so it would be centered, but the spaces go away.

On the same bar as your username and notifications there is a button that says "Shop" - you buy them there! The selection changes throughout the year depending on the month, season, and what events we have going on at the time. Currently there aren't any on-going events with unique collectibles. Some collectibles are bought with bells and some are bought with limited-time currencies. That will make more sense when you experience your first big event here.

They don't have any significance. They're just there to look pretty!

You need to use BB code to centre your signature, e.g:

[CENTER]{signature here}[/CENTER]

would give you:

{signature here}​

Thank you so much for you answer! I think I just missed the Sakura collectible! Such bad luck
But again, thank you for taking your time to explain it to me!

The spring sakura collectible was only available in April of 2019. Hopefully that knowledge makes it feel a little less disappointing!

Hi, does anyone know how to bump a thread after being the last commenter on it (so it doesn't merge)? I've been on here for 3 years now but I've been too afraid to ask haha ;
