I wish people where nice to people

Try not to let some idiot like that bring you down. People don't say these things because they're actually true, they say them because they get a sick sense of satisfaction from upsetting other people.

This jerk probably makes the exact same comments on all of the islands they visit.
 
Maybe they only went to one island and yours is also the most beautiful they've seen all day. ;)

Honestly though, this comment was completely unnecessary and stupid anyway. Worst for what? Sticking to an original design path? Or putting down flowers randomly? You can't exactly mess up an island without making it ugly on purpose, they just seem insecure for whatever reason.
 
They probably haven't seen their own island lol kidding aside, don't let those kind of people stress you out or make you feel down. They're probably envious of what you've done to your island. At the end of the day, it is your island. Do what makes you feel happy and contented "living" there. I mean, haters gonna hate, right? It's hard to please everybody especially those insecure, jealous people who keeps on hating.
 
It wasn’t someone on this site. I used a the dodo airlines code Exchange app. All the other people were nice and sweet but then this guy comes and ruins my day.

This doesn’t surprise me sadly. Every day we have a thread about some guy from reddit/nookazon/discord/[insert external site here] trying to scam or harass someone. It’s despicable.

Now this may be a controversial statement but hey, I think it warrants being said. There are a lot more men out there on those sites and in fact some are mostly male. While I think almost everyone on this site is lovely including our male members, it cannot be denied that outside of here and in male-dominated fanbases in general, there’s a lot more of a ruthless, aggressive, and cruel atmosphere and behavior. Have you heard voice chat on competitive shooters? There’s a reason that the guy friends (who are sweet and awesome) I have turn it off immediately!

In fact, my very first experience playing online multiplayer, literally minutes from starting it up, and I had to listen to some dude’s diatribe about how there’s no point to spending time with girls unless it’s going to lead to something more. And that was Bioshock 2, for goodness sakes, supposedly the thinking man’s shooter!

The point of this is to say that this is about him, not you. He’s used to toxic male-dominated fanbases and behaving like this. He would say that no matter how your town looked. In fact, I wager he said it to each person he visited that day! He’s just trolling you, but failing at being amusing.

I actually feel really sad for such a person and you should too. I pity them that they can’t have positive interactions and feel what it’s like to have a real community vibe of people who share your interests. That’s a shame for him.
 
I'm sorry you had such a horrible visitor! Don't let it get you down though, I'm sure you've had many positive visitors too! Try to look at how many of those there are in comparison! I am sure your island is nice too! That visitor probably just doesn't have the same taste is all.

I completely agree!


Anyway to the OP, please don't let trolls like that bother you!

Rude comments like that say far more about them than you. It takes effort to type anything on a switch, and even if they were using an app or something, it still takes effort to do. They felt the need to leave a rude comment when they could have much more easily just said nothing at all. They must get some kind of sick satisfaction from it and that's NOT on you. I wonder about their mental state that they feel like they need to say rude things to people on a harmless game.
 
Omg, I’m so sorry, op. I know if someone came to my island and said that to me I’d be so upset. Just know that there are hundreds of OG Animal Crossing fans here on this site that would literally kick his ass for you and your town, including me. Stay strong and keep being you! We’ve got your back!
 
I am so sorry to hear that you’ve been treated like that! :(

One thing I’ve learnt since playing ACNH is that there are so many lovely people out there but also sadly there are some real rotten ones.

I’m sure your island is wonderful and I am so glad you are at a point that you are starting to become happy with it. I know how tough it can be to hear criticism but ultimately as long as you’re happy and proud of what you have done that should be all that matters.

Don’t let them get to you <3
 
Sorry OP! There are some people who like to waste their time being rude to others and I like to give them the benefit of doubt and assume they were having a rough day or are going through something and decided to release their frustrations on AC. It doesn't justify their behavior but helps make it easier to let go of =)
