Club Tortimer Pet Peeves

Usually I'm good, but I've had a few creepers asking me super personal irl questions :/ Also when they start a tour and don't participate because they were talking to friends or something -.- I usually just stick around for a couple tours now, if I do go at all :3
Lol, ikr?
I've had a lot of nice people on Club Tortimer recently actually. There was even a Korean person who didn't type in English so we just pressed all of our emotions/jokes for a while, haha. There was an annoying guy who hit someone with a net but they weren't evil by any means. There was also someone who asked me for my friend code straight away which was a bit weird but she was still nice.
I am one of those annoying people who island hop, unfortunately. I wish there was a feature that let you select either leisure play/want to hang out with people or the option to island hop. I don't like just abruptly leaving people, but when I'm item hunting I'm pretty quick and single minded about it.

It's super effective?
Yeah, I don't really like Club Tortimer that much. I mainly hop around for the exclusive items. If people greet me, I'll greet them back and I might stick around for a tour or two if they seem nice or interesting, but then I'm gone.

This is still ongoing I guess. I hate the fact how Club Tortimer is supposed to be to play with other people and yet people
try and ignore you or take it for advantage. If you are simply going to do things by yourself or not speak then why not just go to your own personal island instead? Then you have others trying to ask/or demand that you give them bells,going far as to keeping you from leaving the island. As for the questions,I'd rather not go past my name. But I totally agree.

Oh, I'm just talking about people who hardly talk, and just only use emotions. ^3^
Gather around everyone, for I will tell you the story of Immie who I met today on Club Tortimer. This might be a long post so make yourself comfortable.
I was island hopping on Club Tortimer looking for a pink wetsuit to buy - it's the last one I needed to have collected them all. The island I came to didn't have a pink wetsuit but did have Immie. So as not to be rude, I said I was sad there was no pink wetsuit and was going to check other islands. She told me to wait, and said that she had a pink wetsuit on her island. She also said she really wanted a red one and I showed her that I had a red wetsuit. She suggested we trade and offered to do so in her town which I agreed to - she couldn't mess up my town or account or anything and the worst thing that could happen is me losing a wetsuit. We exchanged FCs and I went into her town.
Upon arrival, we changed into our wetsuits to show that we had them. She did indeed have a pink wetsuit. We traded and she said she was going to save, which she did, making her more trustworthy to me. She wanted to play a bit in her town so I agreed. I had a petition that needed signing from Agent S and she let me talk to her villagers to get it signed. She also randomly said that she had a crush on me (despite the fact we had only 'known' each other for 10 minutes lmao) and she didn't know why. I just said lol and kept going.
Two of her friends then came into the town - Sophie and Minty. Immie suggested we play dares so we did. She dared me to run around saying "I'm sooo pretty!!!" or something similar so I did. I dared Sophie to hit someone with a net which she did. Sophie dared Immie to run around saying "I'm a big fat poop from the toiler" or something which Immie did do. Shortly after this, I had to leave so I said thank you to Immie and went back to my town. She wanted us to register each other as best friends so I did, to make sure that she didn't come into my town unexpectedly when my gates were open.
Up until now, everything has been ok/good.
I came back online to play later and Immie came online soon after. She wanted to see my town. Reluctantly, I agreed as long as she didn't run on flowers or take anything without asking. When she came in, she offered me gold roses, a Jacob's ladder and white carnations as well as cyan heart balloon. I thought it was weird she had the first two because I noticed her town tree was rather small. I declined because I already had all those items but thanked her anyway. It was at this point she asked me if I like Sophie to which I replied that I thought she seemed nice. Apparently, she was a stealer though. She also walked up to me and said -hugs- which I didn't reply to because of what she said before and I didn't want to encourage that lol.
On the beach, she saw all my hybrids and said Sophie stole her red carnation so I offered her one of mine. She also wanted some other hybrids but I only let her have 1 blue pansy and 1 orange pansy because I had plenty. She didn't beg much at this point and she wanted to see main street. She asked how old I was and I told her I was 18; she replied by telling me she was 17. We both thought the other was a lot younger haha.
Okay, if you're reading for the horror story part then it begins around now.
She said she lived alone in Glasgow, Scotland which was a shame because she thought we could meet in real life. I told her I lived in a different country so that couldn't happen (well even if we lived really close then I wouldn't meet her tbh). She then said Sophie, her friend from before, was asking her questions to ask me like if I'm gay and also wanted to tell me comments like she found me sexy (idk how she can find an animal crossing villager sexy lol). The questions got more inappropriate which I won't repeat. I told her it wasn't ok to say things like that and she said she deleted Sophie.
I showed her all the balloons I bought from a lovely person on TBT and she said she really wanted the purple ones because purple was her favourite colour. I said I'd like to keep them all because full collection and whatnot. She seemed a little sad but got over it - I couldn't change museum layout while there was a visitor in my town anyway. She also told me that Minty was asking her questions - inappropriate like Sophie's so she deleted Minty as well.
Just as we were about to leave the museum, she randomly gave me her mobile phone number. I told her that she shouldn't share personal info online and she said she didn't mind because she was 17. I told her I didn't want to know her number to which she said ok. She then suggested we go to the island. On the way there, I lectured her a little lol. I asked if she had given the number to anyone else and she said nope which was good. I said it's dangerous and she shouldn't do it again.
We arrived on the island, and she said she just realised something. Apparently Sophie had all of her money - 17 million bells. I said oh no but was also curious about how she got 17 million bells in such little time (her town tree was smaller than this one: )
Apparently, she had been glitching and duping with Sophie. It failed and all of the bells were in Sophie's town. I asked why she couldn't do that again and she said she forgot how to glitch. I didn't want to give her loads of money and possibly get scammed so I just told her about bugs on the island and wished her good luck on getting loads of bells again.
She wanted to go back to my town now, so we got back on the boat. She also said she had to leave and was walking along the beach on the way out. She asked for black hybrids again. I declined saying that I didn't have many and she already has hybrids from me. I told her about fertiliser and said for her to try herself for longer because I could see she hadn't played very long. She started begging but I declined, asking for me to breed some more first so I could rebreed easier and then give hybrids to her. Immie said Sophie would give back all of her bells is Immie gave Sophie one of each black hybrid (so apparently she didn't delete Sophie?). I said I'd give the black hybrids but Immie said that she had to give them. At this point, it was obvious that wasn't the truth so I declined.
She said she had to go and for me to end the session. She also wanted me to come to her town and bring the purple balloons - I said I would come later.
So that was a weird experience. She started off nice and I still have my pink wetsuit which is great but things took a bad turn when she came into my town. She didn't take anything I didn't see and she was within my eyesight pretty much the whole time too. Now I don't know if I should just delete her and try to forget this whole experience but I would feel a little bad. I don't know how much of her story to believe but I am still confused lol. Any advice from anyone?

I really hate when I offer to go on a tour with someone, they agree, and then when I sit down to start the tour, they get up! If you don't want to go, just say no, I'll go by myself!

Since y'all are in different countries, it would've cost a buttload of money to text or call her anyway. (No matter where you are)
If she was acting really weird around you, then I wouldn't invite her back to your town. If someone asks you for a ton of stuff right away, you probably don't want to be friends with her. Maybe you could visit her town again and see if she acts differently. Most people on Club Tortimer don't really want to be your friend; they just want to hide behind the shield of anonymity to trick people into giving them stuff or just steal it themselves. If someone is really looking for friends, looking for friends on a site like TBT is better than just random island hopping. So, I'd try to visit her again and see if she wants to do anything with you that does not involve you giving her stuff. If she really is a fun person to hang out with, then you can give her stuff because you like her, but if she is expecting you to buy her friendship with gifts, just get rid of her.
@Momo: The number was a UK number so cost wouldn't have been a problem but you shouldn't give your number away online so I didn't do it for that reason.
@Red Cat: I decided to remove her from my friend list. If I went to her town, she would have wanted the purple balloons or eventually the black hybrids. I figured it was just easier to forget everything because of the inappropriate friends and kind of begging. I have friends to play with here anyway so it doesn't matter too much that I removed her I guess.

For a while I was one of those people that show up on the island, look at the items and if I didn't see anything that I liked I would leave immediately. I was only doing this because I was trying to find certain items and having no luck on my own island. I have everything that I need from the island now so I don't do that anymore. I can see how this would be annoying for people actually trying to play on the island always getting interupted.
As for people blocking you so that you can't leave the island, I had never experienced this. But it seems like this would be really annoying especially if you have an item that you want to get home with. If someone wouldn't let me off the island, I probably would manually just turn off the game since I know everything before coming to the island was saved. The only problem would be not being able to take the items that you bought on the island with you.
I don't like it when people talk all the time on the island. I'm normally a single player type of person so constantly talking really bores me. I don't type fast on the 3ds either so it takes a while for me to talk back to other people. I also don't like it when people ask for my friend code so they can come to my town. I don't know these people, so I'm not letting them come anywhere near my town so they can possibly destroy it.

I wouldn't believe the part about giving the hybrids to Sophie and saying that she "had to deliver them." That's just another trick you can't fall for. Immie seems nice, but I wouldn't let her into your town if you're uncomfortable about her begging.
Oh... whoops! Problem already solved. Man, I'm stupid.
Had my first "bad" encounter on Club Tortimer today. I was island hopping for some rare stuff, and someone else who was there sent a message saying "ugh... hi...". Being stupidly curious, I asked them what was wrong.
Their response? "i am abused."
So I ask them if it's physical abuse and they say yeah, it's coming from their dad. Then I asked if they'd told the cops, and they said he's already in jail. I said something like "I'm sorry that's happened to you" and then just left. Like, I understand that those kinds of things are traumatizing and life-ruining, but Club Tortimer is very much NOT the place to be sharing those things considering how personal they are and how the people who you share it with can't do much at all.
I just was looking for my cabana stuff dangit ;_;
