*Le opening with an outdated meme.*

Last night and the night before, I hosted parties for a meteor shower and the fireworks show respectively. Each party was a ton of fun! We had a blast watching fireworks and wishing on stars, and everyone that showed up was super sweet and respectful...or so I thought. Apparently, in the midst of all the merrymaking, somebody decided to help themselves to my decorative star fragments that I had sitting out.

Whenever I host events I always have a totally open island. Its too much of a pain to bother fencing things off, and besides, It’s super fun to show off my hard work on the island lol. I knew that people could pick star frags up, but I decided to take the chance anyways just because they looked so nice. I had them sitting out for about a month and they remained untouched, so I thought that they were was ok. Apparently not. :(

The worst part is I have no idea who did it. It could’ve happened at either the fireworks party or the meteor shower. I’m not sure if fragments were gone by the time I hosted the meteor shower or not. I only let in people who had 100% WiFi ratings too, so that doesn’t narrow things down at all. I suppose that somebody could’ve mistaken them for party favors and thought that they were ok to take, but that’s a bit of a stretch. I only had them sitting out in one area, which is tucked away from the rest of the island, and they were clearly decorative. Most likely, somebody decided to help themselves and scrounged them while me and the rest of the guests were busy at another part of the island.

Idk, it just saddens me that someone took advantage of my trust like that. Like, I let you into my island, give you free DIYs and party favors and this is how you repay me? It leaves a bad taste in my mouth on what were two otherwise wonderful evenings. I guess that from now on, the full glory of my lunar picnic will be reserved for dream visitors. There’s always one bad apple that has to spoil things for everyone else.

~Pardon my rant
 
This is why I'm really afraid to decorate using star fragments and just don't do it. I'm paranoid that way ugh...x__x; I am SO so sorry that happened to you, that's just awful. I'd be happy to give you some of my star fragments if you want <3

Oh, okay! Offer's still on the table if you ever feel like it.
Aww that’s really sweet of you, but I don’t need any. I have tons so it’s really not a huge deal. I just wanted to rant a little lol
 
I'm so sorry that someone did that to you, it saddens me that there are people like that that are dishonest and steal in the game. Was everyone there from this forum? I would say you could report them, but you aren't sure who did it.

Edit: I also have too many star fragments, I can give you some for free if you need any 😊
 
That is so out of order. You were being so kind and I would love to come to one of your parties 💕 if it’s frags for decoration I can give you a couple of stacks of pink and regular. Just to make up for an idiot.
 
Ugh, that's so gross 😕 I'm sorry that happened! Unfortunately, there always seem to people who are looking for a chance to take advantage of someone.

I decorate with star fragments, but I usually rope off my island when I have visitors (at least for meteor showers, when I do trades people rarely leave the area in front of my airport). I say it's for helping people not get lost... and it is. BUT it's also this to a degree. I also often have furniture/clothing/DIYs set out for my side characters to pick up (but then get too lazy to actually load that character and collect them) so I don't want people taking those, either. I really WANT to open up my whole island and let people run free... but I just never feel QUITE that trusting because of stuff like this.
 
It's always unfortunate when people take advantage of others' goodwill. :/ I'm sorry this happened to you. :( I attended the meteor shower party that you hosted last night and it was a lot more fun bombarding Celeste as a group.
 
I'm sorry to hear that! I visited your island yesterday for some wishes and celeste, but I don't remember if the star frags were there or not.
I tend not to pick up anything unless very clearly marked or told to, so I don't think it was a mistake T-T

Don't be sorry for the rant. Your trust was betrayed and it's fine to be upset.
 
oof this really sucks :c
it's always a risk decorating with star fragments and mushrooms and it's why i have oversized nova lights around instead LOL.
I've heard someone say that the star clock turned backwards is a good idea too if you don't like the size of the nova light, but I don't have that recipe so cannot confirm!
 
Thank you guys so much for your kind words!❤️ @Everyone offering to give me star frags, thank you, but I don’t need them. I only had 3 sitting out, and I have tons in storage. It’s not a huge loss financially, it’s just the principle of being stolen from that miffs me.

I just wanted to rant a little and offer a reminder to be careful when decorating with things that can be picked up by guests.
 
So sorry to hear that. Please don’t be discouraged by those behaviors. I believe most of the people on this forum are very nice and kind.

On a side note, I just made a star clock and it is a little larger than the large star piece, but much smaller than nova light, so if you want, I can make you some.
 
it's really disappointing that there are people out there who would take advantage of someone being nice and welcoming and inviting everyone on their island to simply have some fun... i'm really sorry it has happened to you!

I have the star clock recipe and I can confirm that they are 10/10 absolutely gorgeous in place of star frags. Nobody can pick them up and they give off great light at night! You can customize them too so you can have all of the colors you want! I used to have star frags out but once I got the clock recipe I replaced them. They look really beautiful interspersed with nova lights too!

If anyone doesn't have the recipe and wants the clocks let me know! I can pop over and craft them for anyone who wants no-risk star fragment decor and has the mats!! :)
