Club Tortimer Trolls

[xoXHoneydewXox]

Recently, I got trolled by some guy named "Link77" on Club Tortimer. Here's (sorta) what happened:

(I mind my own business, fishing.)
[Looks like someone is arriving!]
Link77: Your TPC is 1/5 stars.
Ian: So?
(Link77 follows me around, using the laugh emotion. He also keeps scaring the fish.)
(I decide to go to the main desk and leave, finding a new island. As he decided to follow.)
(Then he kept talking to whatever her name is and was making up random tours, then canceling them.)
Link77: Your stupid
(He finally stops, then starts pushing me around. I was playing the waiting game.)
Link77: Say goodbye to your fish!
Link77:
(I finally slip over to the main desk and.... Right as I was about to leave, Resetti error.)

So that's what happened. However, how did he even force me to lose connection, losing my fish? Totally uncalled for, so yeah. Please tell me how he did that... I'm a bit worried.

Flipping the wifi switch will disconnect everyone on the island, causing you to lose everything.

He flipped the power or wireless switch to disconnect.
And yes, I have had an experience first hand. The guy yelled the f-bomb at me many times. He didn't let me leave. So I flipped the power switch. Problem solved.

You should've been happy to find a troll. It's fun taunting them, screwing with them and boring them to death.

Creep them off with your dirty mind until they leave :raiseseyebrows:

Ahh trolling CT trolls...

Something similiar happened to me yesterday -.- the person didn't really talk to me though... I was on the island catching fish and waiting for someone to arrive... Then a japanese girl came, asked me something (no, I can't read/write japanese), I said "Hi!" and she flipped her wi-fi off. All my fish...gooone

 

[incantatem]

that's why I only visit Tortimer Club for exclusive items, then make a quick return back to town xD

 

[GreenLeaf]

guys but... I get the Resetti error very often and I never flipped the wi-fi switch
people that where with me weren't troll
so I always thought that it was my fault because of my internet
and then... how can I understand who flipped the switch?

I don't mind trolls, they look a bit ugly though. I have never seen one on tortimer island though! Where are they? under the bridge? How do I find one? get one of my billygoats to walk across the bridge or something?

You. I like you.

❤-❤-❤

I'm sorry that happened to you. Sometimes I've had that happen to me, but what mostly happens to me is communication issues, as usually the people that I get paired with are Japanese, and think I'm Japanese, so I'm stuck with the (very) little rōmaji I know to tell them I'm not. ;//u//;

My suggestion would be to use CT only for item exclusives and medals- everything else is more safely done on your own island. I understand that the pro of CT is that the islands reset, so you can destroy everything for optimal bug-hunting, but personally I'd consider the island one of the final goals in terms to decoration; Decorate your home/town/museum first, and by then you should have another reliable source of income (turnips, forum selling, etc.), so then it'll be fine decorating your island, and going to CT for bug-hunting will be a less important endeavor, and won't upset you as much when you're trolled.

Also, FireNinja1, yeah... this is why we can't have nice things. ;^; I sincerely hope Nintendo keeps the 'freedom of speech' in AC;NL and following, but that's a good reason as to why most Nintendo games are limited to pre-written phrases in terms to communication. I'd like to keep the freedom because, while I don't swear like a sailor, I'm an adult so it happens and I'd like to not be punished for that. At the same time, it's a game primarily advertised for kids, so we 'grown-ups' should be mature and put on a friendly internet personality. I mean really, this ain't CoD- what is there to swear about in a calm game like AC? c:

Why would you risk fishing/catching bugs on club tortimer where people can reset their wifi and make you lose everything, though? People keep talking about this happening and I just can't understand why someone would fish/catch bugs there. Are there like.. CT only bugs and fish or something?

Honestly, Nintendo should have a system to report people like this and get them banned from online play. They're clearly not mature enough to handle it.

Now I regret getting the CT pass even more. I've had it for months and I STILL haven't gotten the nerve to actually visit because it doesn't seem worth it.

 

[StarryACNL]

Some people are so horrible!
It happened to me once they asked for 1 million bells!!!!
Luckily I just waited and ignored them then the wifi went out
I didn't loose any thing but a butterfly!

I don't get it either. There's a whole empty island that you have to yourself for fishing and bug catching. I only go to Club Tortimer to see the items and MAYBE meet some new people. I've had encounters with some creeps o.o
Just always be careful!

Ditto! I NEVER go to catch things since I worry that I'm gonna get some douchebag that'll harass me to the point where they flip the switch. I just check to see if there's anything good, then I'm out. On several occasions, I've had people bug me for bells THE. MOMENT. THEY. (or me, if they're there first) GET. THERE. Really? Earn your own bells... :/

I worked my ass off for mine. Got even more annoyed when they kept asking even when I said no... left the island after than before they could flip the wi-fi switch. I'm more than happy to help people out if they need it, but not when people are harassing me. >.<

I had this one guy (don't remember his name either) but he cut down/dug up everything and was digging holes. I asked him why, he said he was "grieving" and asked me to help out digging holes. I was confused and I dug a few holes for his amusement then I left.

I go when I am looking for a specific item or to get the CT only items. Right now, I am hunting a pink wetsuit for my daughter. I haven't gone in a while, though, because I am working on filling in my fish for the month, but I may do it tonight. I go really late at night and only to my region in order to avoid the idiots.

Teehee, I actually like coming across trolls on Club Tortimer. I like to try and weird them out or annoy them. It's amusing. ~_~

Me too. I choose North America only and try to do it between 2 & 4 am, so I hopefully don't run into very many people and upset them that I'm only there to look to see what is for sale.
