ACC or TBT?

I like TBT slightly better because there are a few cool people in here and Steam keys and TBT Bells and all that.

Yeah! I think our website has more creativity. We can have our own avatars, collectibles, tbt bells, steam keys, and we have the IRC. The only thing I envy about ACC is their smileys :c
And I don't see many artists around when I browse ACC. Plus their website looks like the format was created using microsoft publisher or something.
 
I haven't heard of TBT members looking down upon ACC members because this is the first time I have seen an ACC Discussion here, so I have to disagree on that. I didn't even know TBT was having a rivalry with ACC, so what is up with you guys saying that TBT vs ACC is foolish. I haven't seen anyone say that there was a rivalry before, and if you join the IRC, you will know TBT members can be childish nd immature, but that is the good side to TBT. Everyone is just laidback and chillin'.

Bah, I have definitely seen people act like this in previous threads. There HAVE been "ACC or TBT?" threads in the past, but I think they probably ended up being locked. As someone previously mentioned, there was a thread about "Worst websites" and ACC was mentioned many times. I normally see people complaining about ACC and stuff or saying the members are immature or stupid (although I said the members can be immature too, but that's usually because there are more younger members on that site). It's quite OBVIOUS from this thread that TBT has a rivalry with ACC.

Tbh, I don't think it's that big a deal. I've seen a few threads both here and on ACC asking which is better, etc. But why be so bothered about something like this? TBT and ACC are two different websites so arguments are hard to make between each other. It is great that people make these threads. Even though some comments are harsh, I think it's nice to see so much appreciation for the forums we go on. We're all talking about the wonders of TBT, and they're on about the wonders of their website. It just teaches us to appreciate what we have as a website and how we stick together as a community!

Why are these threads great? Lol. That's ridiculous. All you said was basically what I said: TBT and ACC are so different so you don't need to make these threads to compare them because it's obvious TBT members will vote TBT and ACC members will vote ACC. These threads are pointless. You don't need to complain and just create more a negative atmosphere. We're hardly talking about the wonders of TBT... Some of us are, but most people are just moaning about ACC. How about this: If you want to complain, go complain on acnlconfessions. But if you want to talk about the wonders of TBT, then go make a thread called "The TBT Appreciation Thread".

I think you really misinterpreted what I said.
But really you're being quite a buzzkill if you don't like this thread go elsewhere, there are plenty of other threads to enjoy.
You might even come across an ACC appreciation thread I'm sure you'd do quite dandy there.

I didn't even misinterpret what you said, and I'm not being a buzzkill. I'm all for discussing the good points about TBT, rather than just constantly talking crap about another forum because that just looks immature.
 
This site definitely looks more organized. The other looks super confusing.

As well, being someone who is interested in web/graphic design, their layout makes me cringe. It's really outdated. They really should upgrade. ^^'

I'm sure they have great features and stuff (I wouldn't know because I don't go on it) but the layout is usually how visitors judge a site when they first go on it.
 
I joined ACC in 2008, and used it for years. (Not super actively of course, but whenever I got back into animal crossing) I knew TBT existed for quite awhile but it just felt strange to me. Being able to customize everything, avatars and signatures. I really wasn't used to that because of the ACC format. But I finally made the switch this year, because I started getting back into new leaf again, and I'm really glad I did. The community is a lot more expressive, and I'm able to take the majority of TBT's members seriously. I love that we have the ability to freely express ourselves and talk about a wide array of subjects without being censored. Everyone here is so laid-back.. It honestly doesn't feel like an animal crossing forum at times, and that's what I love about it.

But you said I was saying what you were saying?
In a thread like this we're going to be talking crap about one thing or another, whether it's tbt or acc, so...

You do know that alot of users here came from ACC right? So that means there are unbiased opinions, because they have experienced both ACC and TBT.
So if a user who came from ACC were to vote for TBT, their opinion is not biased. They just prefer TBT. No one was really complaining, they just wanted to share their experiences when they joined ACC. And it doesn't really count as rivalry if TBT and ACC don't really count each other as rivals. I know you dislike this thread, but people want to express their opinions, so let them be I guess. No one can stop them from sharing their opinions and experiences
 
I'd like to see ACC get vBulletin/TBT skin and just experience a whole new world but the exact same thing sorta. (like Corpse Party the game??)
 
I prefer TBT, it's a lot easier to use in my opinion. Especially on mobile which is big for me since I'm hardly ever on the computer. Although I'm on both right now lol, I feel ACC has more of the service I'm looking for tho. Like if I post a thread looking for something I'm more likely to get a response from someone on there who has said item.
 
I've never really had a problem with ACC, but I never made an account because for a while the members didn't seem very friendly. I liked using it for the patters and guides though. I've always preferred the Bell Tree though, I'm glad to see so many members! When I joined we had MAYBE 50 "active" (posted once or twice a day) members lol but that's because there hadn't been a new Animal Crossing in a long time, as soon as New Leaf was announced the member count shot up.

TBT. But I do go on ACC when no one has what I need on here.
 
Definitely TBT.

I never really got to experience the community on ACC (apparently I dodged a bullet after hearing some opinions from friends), mainly because the site is really poorly designed in my opinion.. It's very difficult to navigate and I always find myself lost and unable to find where I want to go..

The posts in general look badly designed as well.. While TBT's post design looks really clear and concise, ACC's is very sloppy and has things all over the place..

To top it off, ACC has a mish-mash of colours absolutely everywhere and it's not very aesthetically pleasing, as opposed to TBT who just uses a green tree and then the AC sky colours mixed in with the neutral whites, beige and brown colours
 
I have accounts on both. On ACC, I feel like it is very cluttered to, I wish they would organize it a little bit more. I mainly use it for a giveaway if I need a bunch of items, or in need of bells.

I really like TBT way more than ACC. TBT has a much friendlier environment, and I feel TBT as more activity going on. For me, there's alot more things to do on TBT than ACC. I'm not even sure if ACC has an art board... I know they have a story board.
 
I found ACC when searching for an Animal Crossing forum, maybe even before TBT. It didn't really appeal to me, as everyone else has likely said, it's formatting really needs a makeover and it doesn't seem as active. I've found some threads that were interesting, and from what I've seen, the members seem nice enough. I can't see myself making an account on it anytime soon, though.
 
One particular thing to note is that ACC has a lot morr then just forums on it. They have cataloging, maps, a pattern maker, etc.

While I wish TBT had an on-sitr cataloging service, the other stuff isnt necessary. TBT isnt spread too thin with 10000 extra features.

Also our bell shop is better than theirs ;)
