Very well said, Crash. There is stating an opinion thoughtfully and there is being thoughtless with your opinion. Again, I am not a believer in kicking someone when they are down and I think that is the point here. I'm not at all calling the people who were less then kind 'trolls'. That would imply they were simply being jerks for the sake of being jerks. For me, it was worse. They were stating their opinions in what I deem to be a cruel and thoughtless manner, completely uncaring that one of their fellow members here was obviously hurting. For me, that is worse than being a troll. That's just being mean. I don't believe any of us are 'ganging up' on the people who were rude. I simply believe we are calling it like we see it. Sorry for those of you who disagree, but that's how I feel.
Villagers being real friends, is this kind of pathetic?

Nah, it's more like if you support them you're understanding and sweet, if you don't that's okay too, but if you're just a straight up ******* about it you're a troll. Like Dorian said, don't kick someone when they're down. That makes you a terrible person. But apparently it's fine to tell someone who's clearly in a bad place that they're pathetic for having something that genuinely makes them happy. Interesting mindsets in this forum.
If you want to love your little animal friends, that's all up to you. The animals are essentially all family figures in their own ways. To me, I've always felt like Uchis and Snooties were like big sisters. Trying to teach you how to be fashionable, how to win fights, the occasional random conversation about potatoes, and even their own little insecurities. It really is relatable (albeit, to a mild degree) and cute, so I don't see why you should feel ashamed about it. If these animals hated you, it would be a survival of the fittest simulator.
Well... I mean, with the way you responded to the question of an obviously upset person I guess that's not too surprising. I'm a firm believer in not being a **** to people, but come on, lay off her. OP, if you want friends, don't act like this chick, ever, no one likes a *****.
Not gonna lie, I was really tempted to say this but I chickened out. Thank ya.
I've yet to say anything mean to her. I'm neutral in this and made a simple comment earlier in here. The deeper issues within the OP is something not suitable for discussion on an acnl forum. I'll let all the fake saints continue on, but just because someone disagrees doesn't mean they're a**holes, etc. Not everyone who disagreed in this thread was vulgar and rude. Smh.

Perfect. We are on the same page then.
That was easy eh?
I think a mod should maybe close this thread before things get out of hand. :/
Edit: not that it is out of control or anything I just don't like the arguments lol. Let's all hold hands and praise Tortimer!

Yeah, I really don't want this to be a place for anyone to argue! I'm all for debating the topic and giving honest opinions but I'd rather there not be name calling and fights starting.
That being said, I'm still okay with people giving their opinion, even if it's a negative one. I did, after all, ask for any opinion. While I would prefer hearing the people who do feel it's a bit pathetic to say so more politely, I have learned that some people are just kind of more blunt without intentionally being mean. I don't think the person who was saying to remember that they're digital was trolling, just being honest. The only post that really was kind of rude was the one on the first page.
I know you guys are being really sweet and trying to stick up for me but I don't want an argument getting the thread shut down. Especially not after I've had people messaging me and telling me that they were glad I posted this because they related to it. Not everyone with a negative opinion of my post is necessarily trolling.

i wasn't referring to you...? nor was i referring to anyone who disagreed with her as long as they weren't arrogant about it? i very simply said that if you're rude or cruel to someone who's in pain, you're an ass. you're very right, not everyone who disagreed was rude at all. but some people were, and that's who i was addressing.
and it's not your place to decide what's talked about on this forum. who are you to say it's wrong for Namstar to ask for some help in a community she feels comfortable in? you have no clue what other people are going through and have no right to tell them they can't ask for help. i was not attacking you in any sense, but simply saying you're wrong in the thought that 'everyone who supports her is sweet, and everyone who disgarees is a troll'. we're trying to support a friend in need.
**not trying to start an argument either, but i don't like my intentions to be misunderstood.

Somehow I really don't think we are.
Especially with that "fake saints" remark. And to think I was about to message you willing to devote time to plot resetting my own town for Jacques lmaoYeah, I'm gonna report this for closing. This is gonna get ugly really quick.
This, exactly. Even though I'm not in a great place lately, I still want to hear people's opinions, good and bad.
There is just a difference between
"This is pathetic and dumb"
and
"I don't think it's exactly healthy or normal, and here's why..."
I know I used the word pathetic myself a few times, but I probably should have worded my first post a bit differently.
*claps* I will say the first commenter is kind of an intentionally rude person though. I was reading their visitor messages. You handle it great though

I don't think it really needs to be reported right now. If it starts to get any worse I'll close it myself.
I'd rather we all just try and turn the thread around if possible instead.
It doesn't need to be reported. I shouldn't had said it needs to be closed. I will now distract everyone from the events of this thread *begins juggling flaming torches with Pietro the scary clown sheep*
I'm just waiting for my fishing tourney results. I think I might have won my first ever (though admittedly I've never really tried lol)

Bunny Fanatic
I'm glad you had the guts to post about this, because I know a lot of people (not necessarily on this forum) feel the same as you about this/these game(s).
Hell, my one town was made in tribute to my bunny who I lost a little over a year ago and I am insanely obsessed with completing it.
So I'm VERY pathetic because a lot of people would say, "it's just a rabbit" and look at me like I'm crazy...and then I just want to cry (and usually do) because it breaks my heart.
So in my typical self-deprecating fashion, I will just say that no matter how bad things may get, at least you aren't mourning the loss of a bunny with a video game.
I always forget to even participate lol. I just started a new town today as well so I didn't really get to do it. Lobo won with a 6 inch fish wtf
I decided to just for the heck of it. I caught this 41 inch sea bass and I was like 'nah I bet I won't win cause I only caught like, 5 fish' ... then I saw that Bob and Tangy both had like...5 inch pond smelts. I kind of won by a long shot and I feel mildly bad haha.
