ACNL Things That Make You Cringe

[marierock13]

Hacked towns.

There, I said it. There is nothing that irritates me more when visiting some "highly recommended popular dream town" than discovering that it's hacked. It seems to take relatively little effort to create a hacked town (no flower breeding, no villager resetting, no bell earning, no furniture hunting). All you need to do is to cheat Nintendo's system by not updating your 3DS.

And, can I just say? Most people who hack really don't seem to do it in an aesthetically pleasing way. Clovers and weeds look terrible on paving stones, PWPs and houses make the beaches desperately overcrowded, and for the love of all that is holy, leave space between your trees!

Heh. Sorry. I've wanted to rant about that for a long, LONG time.

Idgaf what other people do with their towns but I do not visit or even look at towns that have been hacked because I feel like why should I bother to visit? I wanna visit towns that have had their mayor's blood, sweat and tears on it. I also find crap growing in the rivers ugly.

when people have their town so crowded with trees you can't even walk through it

when people trample through your flowers without a care in the world..

Al....

Al? The villager? He's in my top 3 favorite villager, haha

After thinking for a while, I think the worst in ACNL is not the game itself, it's some players you can meet online. What makes me cringe the most is when I kindly tell someone that they can come to my town for signatures, or to help them in whatever way, and that they have no respect. Is it that hard to say "Hi", "Thanks", "Goodbye"? To me, it's a reflex... Also, when people come and run everywhere... On paths, I'm fine with it, but on grass? PLEASE, don't. Also, when you come to my town for signatures, is it hard to ask me "Can I go?', "Do I follow you?", before you start running everywhere in my town? It's respect. You're in my town, not yours.

Thank you. I feel better now.

I am buying lots of wrapping paper for a giveaway I am planning and freaking tommy, timmy, whatever, keeps asking if I wanna know how to use it... EVERY. SINGLE. TIME. I. BUY. ONE. Ask me once and then leave me alone for gods sake!

when people have a town purposely overrun by weeds

there's nothing aesthetically pleasing about having a town full of things that lower your towns reputation, that's why the beautiful ordinance exists

 

[Fleshy]

i was going to say nothing, but actually the sound that it makes when bees fall from the trees and sting you is pretty damn awful. I like playing with sound on, and i shake trees now and then, but when I do and that disgusting sound of the bees,, nope.

The Animal Crossing tier lists. They only exist because of money hungry people and that fact makes me sad.

Sometimes people want weeds because it fits their town's theme. I don't see what's wrong with that?

It annoys me when people purposely open their inventories or the box when I'm trying to leave a Club Tortimer island. One guy sat there doing the Shrunk dance the whole time I was trying to leave and I rage quit so hard. :c

 

[Jaffacakemunchr]

I forgot a big one.

Grass. Deterioration.

Amen

Oh yeah this, but do the tiers really exist cuz of greed alone? Cuz I feel like at least the whole obsession over who's the most popular villager plays into this too. Either way it's a pretty ****ty phenomenon, sad to see people pick their villagers based on which is the most pastel one.

I recently lost my favorite villager Ankha and I actually cried

 

[aleksandras]

when you're trying to breed pink or black roses and you get stupid red roses...

 

[aleksandras]

and when you have so many ideas for rooms but you're running out of rooms

I wrap large furniture, usually GracieGrace stuff, and drop it in my basement or the second floor of my museum when I'm out of storage space in my closet. I feel this one so hard.

 

[Kolechia]

or don't have the furniture you need

Oh my god... that is the smartest thing I have ever heard to do!! Instead of playing furniture tetris. XD

Just found another one. When you're discussing with a random villager, and another villager walks by and "pings" you, but you don't have enough time to talk to him, since the other villager won't stop talking. I hate it, I always feel like I just missed a new PWP.
