Club Tortimer Pet Peeves

[Eve]

Do you have any? I have quite a few:

1. You say hi, and they leave immediently after
2. They don't talk to you at all
3. They over-use emotions
4. They start asking personal, irl questions
5. THEY BEG FOR MONEY!

Number 5 is my least favorite pet peeve. How about yours?

I haven't club tortimer'ed in a year but I remember there was a method of making it impossible for you to leave (or something like that). Had something to do with the tours I think... that was terribly annoying.

 

[Jacob]

when people destroy the island then leave :,)

 

[duckvely]

Mine are:
?Bell beggars
?People who start a tour and trap you on the island when they realize you're going to leave
?They press X and prevent you from going home
?They go on your tours but don't do anything so they get the medals you earned by yourself

 

[ams]

Every time I've gone everyone else there only speaks French. Considering that's been my biggest problem I guess I'm lucky.

 

[Eve]

Trust me, you are.

 

[You got mail!]

-Immature people that have no idea what they're talking about
-People that dig up holes for some reason.
-hackers that bring golden tools with them and can chat while checking inventory, preventing you to leave and taunt you at the same time.
- emotion spammers

The only reason I ever go to Club Tortimer is to buy island items. Everything else I can do on my own island. I just ignore the bell beggars and other creeps. I once had someone try to block me from leaving using the item menu, so I just went on a tour and ditched her. There are a few nice people on Club Tortimer and some who I had fun playing tours with, so it isn't all terrible.

 

[Ettienne]

I only go for the island gift shop items. So I island hop and never stay very long. But I always reply with a hello if I'm greeted. You make me feel bad... D;

 

[Feraligator]

I'm pretty lucky, whenever I've went to Club Tortimer, I've had good experiences. The most memorable ones was meeting someone Japanese and we had fun on tours together, and meeting 3 others (from the UK) at like 3AM which was fun.

 

[Eve]

Oh! I have a few more:

1. You're trading FC's, and someone randomly barges in. It's someone who just started the game or is super suspicious. They ask, "Can I join?" and you feel like you have to say yes, so you do. You hang out at someone's town, having fun with each other, until the weirdo barges in. They insist on playing an awkward game, and if stuff doesn't go their way, then they yell at you.

2. You're landscaping with a friend, and someone arrives. It's an annoying person, so you ignore them. While you're making stuff look pretty in the grassy area, they're cutting all the trees.

3. You're with a nice group, and you're just about to trade FC's when a beggar arrives, and starts asking for stuff. If you don't give them your crown/million bells/items/Gracie clothes, then they threaten to flip the switch.

4. A person insists on doing roleplay on a certain game that you've never heard of, and without asking if you want to, they give you a role. You try to do your best, but they keep saying that you're doing it wrong.

5. People who say bad words in every sentence, and talk in all caps.

LOL, I don't know why I still do Club Tortimer these days.

Oh, in your case, you're not one of the mean ones. I'm talking about the people who don't even say hi, and if they do say something, then it has a bad word in it. Sorry if I did make you feel bad, though.

 

[Ceres]

I don't really have any peeves I've encountered myself since I mainly would just go there for items and then run off. I think one time someone tried to prevent me from leaving by just talking to the desk the whole time so I just flipped my wireless switch.

Same here. I always say "hi", but I'm really just there to find rare items. If there's nothing there, I'm not going to stay. I do tours and beetle farm on my own island.

1) bell beggars
2) some noob chops down the trees without asking if the other players are ok with it first.
3) never getting the sea globe.
......etc

Oh man. The island in my ACNL town unlocks tomorrow. (It's my first time playing ACNL.) I do plan on trying out Club Tortimer, but with all of the horror stories I have read, here and elsewhere, I am dreading it. eek.

 

[Eve]

Oh, don't worry about it! Bell beggars and a lot of other people probably won't bother you. Just be yourself! ^_^ But remember not to give away too much personal information if they ask questions. You'll be fine.

Don't dread it. The worst thing anyone can do to you is force you to hit your wi-fi switch and end the session without saving. Not everyone is annoying, but with any online game where you play with random people there are going to be some annoying people. If someone is harassing you, just leave the island as soon as possible or hit your wi-fi switch if you haven't done anything important on the island.

I don't know if its the same for everyone I don't really understand how the nintendo zone thing works but I went to McDonalds (in the UK) yesterday connected to the nintendo zone wifi and got the sea globe, maybe try that? sorry if its random and stuff if it is just ignore me

i haven't experienced many problems i had one person recently though that just couldn't under stand the advanced labyrinth tour and kept thinking they had finished then afking even when i collected their fruit too and put it all around them to pick up and hand in but then wouldn't let me leave it was really annoying.

Advanced Labyrinth Tour is really hard. Even if you have 4 people who know what they are doing, it is still difficult. I wouldn't ever play it for the medals because there are a ton of easier and better games for medals, but if you are really looking for a challenge, it is better to find some people here on TBT or somewhere else than to play it on Club Tortimer.

Thanks for the guidance and encouragement, Eve. And Red Cat, too. Club Tortimer, here I come!
