I don't know what to do anymore...

[kazyrock]

So there is one of my "friends" in my friends list, who always waits until my gate is open, comes to my town and then as everything is loading... PULLS THE WIFI SWITCH
I know this can lead to corruption and I have no idea who it is..
I just finished a really long trade with someone, hey.. This person comes and pulls the switch! What do I do!?!

What I would do is delete ALL my FC and keep your BFFs fcs

^ Best choice. It sounds like a hassle, but you'll feel better in the long run c:

Yeah, that's what I was thinking.
And this isn't even the first time, it's happened a few times before.. Just not even invited into my town, they just show up! x0

just delete everyone who you don't know. That should clear up the problem.

That is so weird :\ sorry that is happening to you!

 

[Drew1234]

what about opening for just your best friends?

Sadly, action is needed if what they do makes you uncomfortable. I'm sorry you had to encounter such a person, nonetheless have it be a 'friend'. Don't just try to guess who it is. Just delete everyone that you had invited over that time. Someone is obviously trying to troll you. You said you had just gotten done a long trade with a person who pulled the switch. That is the person you need to delete. Remember, you can always find more friends. Much better ones who wouldn't 'pull the switch' on you.

Personally, I think you should delete all your FCs and keep only friends you know and trust. If you were trying to trade with someone, add that person after you've done that. If there are people you want to trade with again, there's nothing wrong in saying you cleaned up your FC list and have to add them again. It's understandable, considering the issue you're having.

If the problem keeps happening, try to write down the FCs you were going to keep and try to add one at a time. If you don't have this issue, unadd them, and add the next number. It'll help you narrow down which friend is causing this trouble for you.

It could always be an error, but even if it is, it's best to delete that person's FC and ask them about it so they can fix any issues on their end.

Personally, I always delete FCs after trading. The only FCs I keep are the ones of friends I know from outside of trades.

I agree that you should delete most of your FCs. I cant believe someone would do that to you. That's bad and I am sorry that is happening.

 

[Eline]

Ah that sucks! Just like all the others said, delete all of your FC's... There probably is no other way.

 

[oreo]

That sounds very annoying. I'm sorry that happened to you. :/
I also think it is a good idea for me to start clearing FC codes now when I'm done trading with others.

This may have been said, but during a trade if you close the gate no one should get in...unless BFF can get past this in that case it may be a BFF but I don't think they can. You could ask for one on one play to see someone may have a bad connection or just be someone on your list you don't talk to who needs cleared anyways. Or just clear all non good friends start over one by one re-adding and as soon as it happens again maybe you caught your one...detective style. But for safety cut non essentials and always if trading or dealing do a gate close.

I always clear after a trade and have never knock wood picked up a voider. I only keep those who have hit it off with started pming and they asked if could stay on.

Ya gotta delete them.
I added this Japanese dude on Club Tortimer and he gave me some Bells. After that, I went on a trade with a member on the forums, and then just as I was about to end the session, I get the notification that someone was arriving, and it turns out to be him. He just runs out of the station and tries to take my hybrids, and I quickly ended session (because 1. I didn't know about the Wi-Fi switch ughhhh and 2. I didn't want to do the whole trade again).

And then there was this other time where I was waiting for someone to come to my town and I was going to give them 6 million Bells (can't remember why, but it was definitely for something). Then I thought that the person who arrived in my town was the person that was going to pick up the Bells in exchange for our trade. Apparently not...the person who arrived kept on telling me that I added her in Club Tortimer, but I really couldn't remember her, and then I abruptly ended session.
