It's a shame you can't kick their butt and split it open, you can destroy my five dollar lunchbox or some other thing (ran out of examples) but if you wreck my town I will find you and I will put you in tom nook's debt eternally.I will try to respond to every comment.
The reason I knew it was a lie because I KNOW that their kid is in another state due to the virus lockdown. Because of my position at work I can't say anything and or confront that person. We are all 27 or older so you would assume such a thing happening wouldn't be they case. At times when I would be on my break they would see me and ask me questions about the game because they knew i really like the series and I was always ALWAYS happy to help because this was their first AC game. Until this month I was unaware of how huge this game was kinda like what happened with pokemon go. I remembered that I was part of this forum, how nice everyone was just a great community overall. It's my fault because I thought it would be a nice thing to do . The reason I'm very much upset is why lie when if you know how I am I would have helped you. They are people I see every day. Luckily for me other coworkers were witness. Today is my day off so I ended the conversation with that person all I said was I wish you did not lie to me. They apparently went to work and tried to be like "lol she's all mad because i took some things its not that serious" not only according to my coworkers did they confess but my other coworkers that knew what happened call them out and told them that it's disrespectful and not funny.
If anyone has had something like this happen please dont let anyone make you feel horrible for how you are feeling. It is valid. There's nothing wrong with being passionate about something especially if you are older.
Everyone can play how ever you want but please be cautious of who you let into your island .
Wow wtf? That is literally so petty. A grown adult with a kid stealing from their real life coworker in a game, and then turning around and lying to you about it? If possible I would cut ties with that relationship as much as possible. That is absolutely ridiculous.
Edit: If it's any condolence, it's better your coworker showed you their true colors now, rather than later. At least now you know not to trust them from now on, and can have your guard up around them, in case they try screwing you over/taking advantage of you in a worse way than animal crossing.
“It’s just a game” is the most pathetic excuse and I hate when people use it. Who cares if it’s “just a game”? It’s something that you enjoy, that you’ve put time and effort into, that makes you happy, and this person has taken that from you. That’s not acceptable.
I have some spare hybrids I’d be willing to give you if you like![]()
wait um unrelated but what does like hacked/seeded mean i dont understandIm sorry to hear this happened to you.Like other users have already said though, never add anyone you dont fully trust or arent close with. Ive gotten my town hacked/seeded before in previous AC gamss loosing up to 2-3 years worth of progress. It stinks, but all you can do is bring everything back up to where it was slowly.

Oh my gosh that's horrible!Basically in wildworld and newleaf, if you invited someone to your town and they happened to be a hacker (someone who uses different methods to gain unauthorized access to things in the game, they manipulate the game how they want basically), they could ruin your game by placing an unmovable object in the game infront of your house so you could never get out for example, or would error code your town...basically ruin your game, theyd make it unplayable and youd be forced to reset your town. Sad times.
Not to mention if this coworker wants to trivialize the situation by saying it’s “just a game”, then it shouldn’t be an issue for them to return the items. After all, it’s “just a game”, right?I’m at least glad you have other coworkers who stepped up on the plate and even called her out on it.
I really hate how she tried to frame it like she was the victim in this scenario, and it was out of her control that her daughter stole from you when she was actually guilty. Like a lot of people said beforehand, even if her daughter did that, she as parent has a responsibility to guide her child and explain almost every action has consequences and one needs to make sure to accept it then do the right thing. But seeing how she truly is, guess that’s asking the most that she herself would even want to take responsibility of her own actions.
And riding off the “It’s just a game” statement.
I almost always hate hearing “It’s just a [insert blank]”. Listen, I understand I feel passionately about certain series and stuff. There are times I know the best thing for me to do is to agree to disagree, take a step back, and disengage to soothe down. But I feel like it’s a slap in the face to make it seem trivial I care about my interests.
You [referring to people who would make statements like ‘it’s just a game] don’t understand how important these special interests impacted me. How much it’s gotten me through life. It may just be a game, but we as people get to define just how much the game can be for us.
