I didn't even know about ACC until it was mentioned a few months back. Even before registering, TBT was my go-to for browsing in most cases. I did have a look at ACC but the interface is ugly as sin, and not worth my time trying to navigate it considering the things I've heard about the staff there.

I joined that site in 2011, and I was pretty active for a while. But then I started to get bored with it. The site is so slow and barely anyone goes on it. The rules are way too strict... I got an infraction on there for saying something was funny. I got another one for posting my dream address, which is apparently "dangerous" (wtf?). I also had a bad experience with someone once, where this old soccer mom flipped out at me and screamed at me via PM because there was a wifi error when I tried to visit her town to pick an item up.
There was also a big thing on there where if you time traveled, you were a horrible cheater. There were tons of debated about this all the time, and it was so stupid.
Overall, that website is meh. I prefer this one.

I never joined ACC, but I lurked around there once or twice. It looked really old and dead, so I joined TBT instead. And after reading about how awful ACC is, I'm glad I didn't join it. lol

Good grief.
Considering I joined in 2013, you look familiar.

I joined ACC in 2008
I don't go on more than like twice a year now. It used to be a really fun site. I have lots of fond memories of it

never joined ACC but on here I've heard a lot of "judgement" and experiences on what kind of people are on that site with mods and community. I checked it out to wonder if it was a possible alternative to TBT only to see some really outdated looking forum page that isnt so easy on the eyes and user-friendly.
I made an account (after being suspended from here) and all I liked was that you could create a town. Was creating that and I was prompted to do something because I had been 'inactive for nearly 5 minutes'. I think TBT could steal the town creation feature 
Does anyone actually have horror stories of ACC or do we just hate it because there's one rule you don't agree with?

I know countless people who were banned. I can name a few. The trolling got so bad that people actually enjoyed it and teased the mods along with them. I remember threads getting locked for things far less offensive than some of the threads here. I remember so many mods stepping down. The admin was like a myth at one point. so much to say
I have an account there but I've only made it to ask for a specific villager and to get a nice deal but that's it. I haven't stayed long enough to notice much but I've heard from people here (not comments on this thread because I've yet to read them) that the rules were very strict and one could get banned easily or something which upset people and caused them to leave and probably join this site instead. all I can say is that my first impressions is that the site seems kind of neglected and in need to be updated because the layout just looks so outdated and ugly it throws off any animal crossing fan who wants to join.
I made an account on there in 2011, I go back on there every once in a while now.
To be honest I would've been here first..Like around 2007 or 2008.

What did you do to receive a violation point?
i used to be a part of it years ago, and it just turned into such a garbage heap over the years
I agree, it was good enough for trading and visiting other towns during the times when Wild World and City Folk were most popular but as you said, I feel the site has progressively gotten worse throughout the years. Nevertheless, I still only use it for the purpose of trading and communicating with old friends. I can honestly say that I much prefer it here to AC for all the right reasons.

TBT and ACC were the first AC sites i found. i completely avoided ACC because the layout gave me epilepsy and it looked pretty dead. don't regret it. TBT is great.
what did you even do?

This was pretty much my reason for not joining. I wanted something a lot clearer and something that's similar to what I'm used to. So when I was searching for AC forums to join, I chose this one in a blink of an eye compared to Animal Crossing Community. I don't like their layout at all
I've heard so much bad stuff about it now that I don't know if it's worth checking out.
The only thing I dislike is the layout, other than that I've never really had a problem.
Back in the post CF era when TBT's AC community was dead, I spent a lot of time on ACC looking to trade and visit people's towns, and I never had any problems. I've even made a lot of stupid posts, I got warnings, but I never got banned. Maybe I was just lucky and slipped under the radar, but I've never had a big issue with the site other than the layout - most of my negative opinions on the site are literally just from what I've been told by others. In saying that though, I never really got into the whole site. I just went on, found people to trade with, and the end. Maybe if I divulged myself in the community more I'd have seen this side everyone talks about, but I just haven't seen it.
...I just looked out of curiosity;
I have 5 violations, 4 of which are from 1/14/2013 and 1/25/2013. Three are for "trolling and insults", one is for "personal insults and attacks" and then one, which is the only one worth a point, is for offensive langauage. Like I said, no idea why I haven't been banned once, especially since I got so many in the span of 11 days, but oh well, maybe I'm just lucky, or maybe it's just some major conspiracy !!!

I've never joined ACC but I've heard terrible stuff about the community. The layout is so awful and outdated compared to TBT.

I remember signing up on ACC when Animal Crossing for the Gamecube came out in what...2002?When I started playing New Leaf I went back to ACC to see if my old account was still active and I was surprised to find that this website hadn't changed much at all.I received a minor infraction for posting that "nudity should be an option" in the game.Their moderators claimed my post was "sexually offensive","vulgar","obscene" and "sexually oriented".Apparently,a bunch of naked video game characters are a form of pornography to the people in charge over there.I appreciate their enthusiasm for Animal Crossing but they use this old fashioned sort of doctrine to run the place.
