You’re taking this was too seriously dude.
i dont like time travelling when it abuses the game- like the interest building stuff that got the game's rate cut. its generally sweaty gamers (generally grown gamer boys ive seen???) who think ac is competitive.
if you do just casual day to day time travelling for villagers or to skip past tutorial or to help people get stuff etc idc because even I do that just for extra fun and to get visitors (eg kicks), its just the techniques that the devs pick up on that i hate
the most you can do is just argue though. it just worries me for what else the devs will change

Could someone explain to me how TTers have affected the economy so greatly? How does time traveling give you an extreme enough advantage in bells or NMT to be anti-TT? You would still have to put in the hours to make bells or miles regardless if you time traveled or not. The only reason I can think of is when people were exploiting ABD interest.
Maybe TTers have more items and DIY’s, but if the majority of avid traders are TT friendly then doesn’t that keep the market lower? (ie. 100 people can sell you the thing so they have to keep their pricing low and competitive)
Don’t we all already know and loathe the main causes of the horribly inflated economy?
1. The duping before the update
2. The continued switch save duping
3. Ability to purchase (likely duped) things with real money
TTing DOES give you an unfair advantage in economy. However, the advantage is so minuscule that it’s only a strawman for the real issues we should be angry about.
100% TTers cause spoilers. Some people are highly affected by spoilers (TTers and non-TTers). But how can we cite their effect on the economy as a valid argument against TTing?
I apologize - maybe I’m missing something huge here and I’m just out of the loop! That could very well be the case. Please correct me or give me some insight to why you might feel TTing strongly sways the economy.

It simply boils down to some people not liking it when other people enjoy something they enjoy differently

I personally don't care if people time travel. Heck I even used to time travel in itty bitty chunks (one or two days tops) now and then in New Leaf so I could speed up construction projects. Everyone is entitled to enjoying the game in their own way at their own pace. I've been playing New Horizons day by day and I'm perfectly content with just building my island slowly.
I think what it boils down to is some people feel badly that others are progressing faster and making these beautiful islands to show off on social media, and those who don't time travel may feel behind or like they're missing out. Granted, making those beautiful islands takes its own huge amount of work, but those filtered cutesy screen shots sure do make it seem effortless.
All in all, I think folks should just live and let live. Animal Crossing isn't a contest.

Lately I've felt like everything has been switched around. At first, I could acknowledge that time travelers may have been the ones getting bullied and given a hard time and I felt bad for the situation. But these days? I'm seeing a lot of meanness come from time travelers. "Oh you're just jealous I have a better town than you!" "You simply can't handle it when someone enjoys the game differently!" "All the people against time travel just have a complex they are unable to get over." "If you don't like spoilers then just stay off of the internet, k bai!"
I feel like if I don't fall down on my knees before them and profess my absolute love and support for time travel, those are the responses I'm going to get. I'm not a time traveler. I do think changing the clock on the system is a form of cheating. I do feel that it has the potential to create an unfair rift between time travelers and non-time travelers. I simply don't choose to play my game in that manner. But is it really such an evil thing that I think that? I'm not giving anyone a hard time, I'm not saying mean things. I'm 100% all for playing the way you want. I truly want everyone to have the most fun they can have on the game. And if they need to time travel to do that, then that's alright. And if they choose to not time travel to do that, that should be alright too.
I used to stick up for this place because despite what was going on with the other communities, belltree was a place where people could share their opinions without fear of being attacked over it. Now though, I'm seeing a lot of hostility, and most of it isn't coming from non-time travelers.

Honestly, I've noticed the same thing you are describing here. The question I would like to see answered is not "why do people care about time travelers" but "why do so many time travelers seem to require so much bloody validation?"
