Things just look a bit naked right now due to the removal of event currencies and badges.

Nudity? On MY animal crossing forum? Smh

Are you allowed to reserve a special right in auction threads that extend the time if a certain condition is met?

 

[Drawdler]

RateYourMusic is a lot more crass but is it ok to link to my profile there on my sig or forum profile? Even with an ok I’d feel weird about that one
edit: actually, I was most worried about things like inappropriate albums- but I forgot the site filters those if you aren’t logged in, so in that case is it more okay, since those are filtered?

 

[boring]

This is correct! Feedback is and has always displayed only in trading boards. Things just look a bit naked right now due to the removal of event currencies and badges.

Ok I am some what embarrassed to say I never knew that ! I think Im just too trade-orientated.

Are we allowed to discuss site ideas on the Contact the Staff board? I thought of an idea (not necessarily collectible-related or event-related, but profile-related) that I would like to share to them.

The Contact the Staff board is intended for concerns that only staff members can handle such as problems with another user, issues with your account, queries about a warning you may have received, etc. Anything else should go in Bell Tree HQ.

While the topics that you can post on the CTS board aren’t allowed to be publicized. Well, I don’t have any of those problems, and I know what’s allowed and what’s forbidden on the site. And I don’t have anymore questions about the site’s future. So I’m pretty much good here.

I’ll continue discussing site ideas publicly on this forum.

Hi, I was curious after reading the guidelines for whats allowed, regarding drawing?

Can we post slightly creepy AC art weve done, or like with slight violence? I did see both were against the rules, I just wanted to see if its slightly lifted regardimg artwork. If creepy stuff is ok. Like not grim, but slightly creepy.

I'd need to see an example of what you mean to give a definitive answer, but this doesn't sound like it'd break any rules based on your description.

I’m not interested into doing it, but how do you disable the follow feature or giving wi-fi ratings so other members can’t follow you or give you wi-fi ratings, respectively. I know that you can use privacy settings to disable private messaging and viewing your profile. But I never seen someone disable the follow feature.

You can turn off alerts for new followers via your account preferences, but there's no way to fully disable either of these features.

Then why can’t I follow certain members? When I click on their username for the pop-up, the only button I see is “ignore”.

There's currently a bug where certain dead accounts can't be followed, but this will be fixed in the future. Are you seeing this with active users or just older accounts that haven't been used in a while?

Only older accounts, like those who have been inactive in over three years. I can follow anyone who’s been active as of last month.

so i was thinking about starting a thread where people could post funny social media comments they find (like i often do)
of course there would be rules about posting anything inappropriate/offensive or too personal.

i would tell everyone to cross/cover up the username of the person who wrote the comment but could that still be personally identifiable since yk you could technically look the comment up word by word and possibly find the poster?

is this a dumb idea since this could kind of fit into the out of context image thread? do users on this site even have social media?

EDIT: just realized this probably would fit better on a different thread rather than here… oh well.

Will the September birthstone be available soon? Looking to buy one soon!

 

[TN4U]

Would you guys consider adding a dark mode option to the forums? It would make browsing at night easier on my eyes. Maybe integrating it with the dynamic background day/night cycle could be cool as well. Anyways, just a random thought I had.

Whoops, fixed!

Do you mean darker tones in general (our Woods theme for Halloween is like this) or where the darks and lights are reversed (light text on dark backgrounds)?

 

[Alolan_Apples]

I am confused here. Sometimes, when I read a profile, it says that I can’t access due to privacy options. But what’s the difference between these two messages:

• “This member limits who may view their full profile.”
• “This user's profile is not available.”

I’d figure that the former means that they set their profile to private to all or that you are not allowed access per privacy options, but what does the latter mean?

Light and dark reversed when viewing and making posts. I know the site uses special themes every now and then, but I'd like to see that option put in when there's not a holiday or site event going on.
