I originally joined to trade amiibo cards with people. I've only traded amiibo once on here, and really I think it's too much effort.
But, I started reading through threads and now I'm still here because I enjoy posting screenshots of my island and looking at screenshots of other people's islands. I like seeing how people use different functions, like Harv's island, or what their villager lineup is.
I originally joined to get Bianca for my NL town. I was so nervous going to someone’s island but very excited to get a dreamie. Wish I had had the confidence to participate in the forum earlier.
When NH came out I started to lurk around more. Got enough courage to enter the summer fair (stars will always be my fav collectables ) and with baby steps began posting more. Now I have met some great friends and spend far too much time here annoying everyone
My purpose for joining for the forum was to be able to acquire villagers and furniture in New Leaf and occasionally some Pokémon or items in Pokémon games as well.
I joined because I was lonely on acnh I had one friend that didn’t play a lot and I was getting board with nobody to play with so I joined to meet friends
I wasn't aware of this site until last summer when I was searching for a list of villagers who sing and found a post on here. I joined so that I could contribute to that list. I didn't use the site much after that until this past January when I finally started trading. Everyone I've interacted with has been super nice, but being a private person, I haven't really gotten close to anyone yet.
I came here because I want items for my island, but I wasn't having luck on Nookazon and found myself really struggling there. Hoping that here will be a lot better!
probably just because my brother was a member. I never used the forums at all really, until almost four years after I joined, in May 2015. even then I didn't become truly active until July 2016.
I originally joined because someone asked me to to help decorate a new town! I remember being amazed how easy it was get what I needed for ACNH on here.
I stayed (even though I'm really not "that" active) because of the games. I thoroughly enjoy the egg hunts and even though I never win, the art contests.
I joined originally in 2018 someone was giving away one of my dreamies in NL. I did the one trade and then became active when NH came out. Now you can’t get rid of me as this forum and my amazing friends are more than I could wish for
I joined because I was so in love with the Regal furniture series, but after a whole year of playing every. single. day I still had three or four missing items that never appeared in the nookies shop (already upgraded to max). So I joined to buy them.
But after that I stayed because there was so much fun in the forums!
I was one of the people who joined during the massive influx for ACNH, although I also played the other animal crossing games I was never compelled to seek out other players
I joined TBT cause I had been constantly lurking since New Horizons came out and thought I could actually add to the conversation honestly this is the most active I've ever been on a forum I think. I love the sense of community here and it has vastly contributed to my enjoyment of the game
I joined in after the first trailer for New Leaf came out, to discuss my excitement with people who also love the franchise and to analyze every little detail. I didn't have any friends at the time who played the game, so it was really fun joining the community.
to get some region exclusive items in new leaf that i wanted.
before this in 2016 i used to be apart of ACC. i wasn’t active though and i eventually left for reasons (not because it sucked, i honestly didn’t think it was that bad but again i didn’t really post)
I looked up a question and it sent me here so I looked through at everything and when I found out you could trade with other people around the world I thought that was pretty cool but I’ve never but part of a forum before so I was unsure. A few weeks later I was looking on here again and I finally decided to join and it’s actually made animal crossing so much better for me.
I came here because I was looking for a community of animal crossing fans to interact with. None of my "in real life" friends play/or have played any AC games so they don't really understand anything about how much I enjoy it. And of course since I don't have friends to play with or sell/trade items with it's hard to complete my catalog, which is another reason I joined
