#1145 - Potentially The Final Animal Crossing General Thread (Until Something New Comes Out) Edition.
Previous thread: >The Basics We've watched people come and go for long time. Posted maybe a handful of times a year myself, after our first New Leaf Christmas outside of Japan's release... Really, once you learned everything there was to know after 1 year of playing, you stopped needing to post, and mainly did so to negotiate visits and trades with other posters. Or shitpost.
But over the last couple of days, you've proven to yourselves that you can't sustain this anymore. You want to wait for new DLC, you want to wait for a mobile game or an NX game... But you're failing. At this point, creating threads and having them disappear under the weight of Veeky Forums is arguably more effort than the few dozen posts the threads wind up containing are worth.
You appear to have three choices: • Continue struggling with threads dying before even 100 posts make it in and then remaking them every 4-14 hours • Somehow step up your content submission rate • Agree as a majority to bow out until a "boom" in the series itself strikes again, and then attempt to pick up /acg/ again
Ultimately it's up to you, the remaining /acg/.
You can rage at the desecration of the usual OP, you can rage at a nameless poster "telling you what to do," you can rage at the threads dying, and you can rage at this thread and claim it doesn't even count towards the # total... But just don't rage at each other.
There are plenty of ways and places to keep in contact with each other you know, if you'll really miss each other that much.
Whatever you decide, you have my word as Anonymous that I'll remember #1146 is where the next General should pick up, whether it's a few hours from now or a few months from now.
I'll now return you to your regularly scheduled pasta.
>How to play ACNL online with /acg/ People need to add each other's FCs in order to visit faraway towns. Put your name and FC in the name field to save time.
In regards to keeping in contact with those who do still play and would like to keep in touch with others in /acg/, how would we go about this? What platforms are there?
Luke Jenkins
Been living comfy under a rock eh?
>Discord >Skype if for some reason you refuse to accept Discord >No one here would but Animal Crossing Reddit >Animal Crossing Community if you want to flashback to 2003 and be family friendly >Miiverse maybe idk never tried it >Personal email or something >God forbid Tumblr
There's plenty more, but as you can see, we live in an age where communication is very possible. Just need to work as a group... Personally a Discord is, as far as the modern day goes, probably the most realistic thing.
... However, doing that is how you really kill the thread. Once the thread we hypothetically post the Invite Link to any other thing outside Veeky Forums dies, that's it, anyone who missed seeing it gets left out. Unless you make another thread to spam the invite in, which just further extends /acg/'s dwindling life for now.
Jace Turner
Discord seems to be the best option in that case.
Jaxon Ross
Before the general dies for good, could I get help with my food tester petition? I need 6 people!
Joseph Ortiz
Probably best to wait until there's more than three unique posters (not counting op) here. The rest of the USA-posters should be waking up within the next few hours.
If the thread lasts that long.
Colton Cruz
*To wait "" to make any decisions, is what I meant.
Charles Brown
No worries, I understood what you meant.
I can help out, however I may have Moe in my void.
Christian Gray
That's ok! I don't care which villagers I get right now. Can I come to your town?
Matthew Ortiz
yup! I'll add you and then open my gate.
Sebastian Johnson
Alright lemme know when you're open!
Wyatt Walker
Gate's open!
Brody Green
Kk!
Carson Morris
I don't see you listed? I might be doing something wrong
Christopher Russell
One second, I'll close & open my gate again.
Blake Stewart
Opened again, hopefully it'll work this time?
Joseph Bennett
Thanks for coming! An error occurred on my end though just after you left, did you keep your signatures?
Aaron Evans
Sooo uh. Everything I just got was erased :( Probably my connection being funky. Thank you so much for everything, I'll probably come back later to re collect signatures.
Justin Brooks
Oh no! do you want to come again?
Jayden Hernandez
nah that's ok. I'm gonna get some breakfast. If you're around later could I come over?
Dylan Lee
Yeah sure, I should be around later.
Adrian Diaz
Thanks for making the new thread OP. In regards to the thread's topic I'm not using Discord, if the general dies, I'll die with it

Liam Rivera
Isn't Discord the same shit as Skype? Didnt that shit nearly kill /acg/ in 2014?
I think i'll avoid it
David Perez
...
Anthony Garcia
You're taking this shit waay to seriously. It's just a general.
Also, this general isn't any more dead than it used to be, it's just that threads get pruned on Veeky Forums after only 30 minutes of inactivity. You used to be able to go hours and hours without getting bumped off page 10.
Also I've never understood the appeal of shit like discord and slack and telegram and your flavor of the week messenger apps when IRC exists.
Dominic Campbell
Yes and yes. Discord not even once.
David Robinson
I'm with you. Still haven't figured out IRC though.
Carson Smith
irc is really easy /connect irc.server.com /nick "your_nickname" /join #somechannel
Kayden Martinez
I feel terrible about all this. I haven't been around much lately because I've been desperately job searching. But I'll make a point to keep contributing as much as I can and try to keep bumping this place with content.
With that in mind, Tammy has asked to leave but I'm not sure about letting her go. Would anyone be interested in her?
Matthew Reyes

Bentley Watson

Isaiah Hernandez
I just realized that pokémon sun and moon will end up killing /acg/
Cooper Jenkins
Is there anything new this time around to get me to play it? last gen I played was diamond/pearl.
Mason Rivera
New region, new pokémon, new forms of old pokémon. You know, "more of the same".
Jeremiah Myers
So, no new game mechanics, at all?
What a shitshow.
William James

Nathan Parker
>Wah general ded We aren't even close to the deadest general on Veeky Forums Fuck off
Samuel Turner
Oh look, a troll OP. How original.
Eli Baker
Bump
Justin Davis
I'm available now if you're still around to get signatures?
Aiden Hill
I agree that this general isn't dead yet, but that doesn't change the fact that we need more users. There are currently only 13 different posters.
Brayden Lopez
It was like this before New Leaf came out too. Plus, there's an update to New Leaf on the way.
Anthony Scott
>update=new game >hhd didn't save it lmao
Carter Edwards
HHD was a shit shill game. City Folk was bad too, but we survived through that. We'll live.
Zachary Nguyen
The Nile is a river in Egypt too.
Joshua Miller
You're supposed to say Da Nile. You ruined it dumbass.
Juan Jones
Literally the retard way of saying it.
Jackson Butler
Maybe don't use retarded wordplay then fuccboi.
Jason Carter
I want an amiibo of my mayor so bad.
Andrew Perez

Carson Adams
Who's your favourite smug villager /acg/?
Sebastian Collins
make him wear a rainbow shirt for maximum gay
Aaron Wilson
bump
Xavier Rodriguez
i'll post
Jose Long
Wow the denial is strong in here. 14 unique posters all day. An entire general for 13 people who're so inactive they let op make their thread for them after going hours without one; even posted the actual copy/paste with updated birthdays after all the ego stroking.
No more dead than it used to be, you say? Bullshit and you'd know it if you'd been around longer than eight months.
An entire general for 13 people, no thanks. Those that played with me have my FC and a couple other ways to contact me; I'm out. See you girls when a new game comes out. Good riddance, r-right Mayor?
Hunter Parker
And nothing of value was lost.
Nolan Powell
Fuck off, we're not moving to trash, you furshit.
Jonathan Clark
Who exactly is trying to get rid of the general?
I've only been lurking to see if a favorite villager is moving out, so I haven't kept up with much aside from seeing the fresh prince of spam
William Mitchell
>girls
Samuel Green
There's one persistent shithead trying to declare this general dead.
Ryan Reed
There's some user who's been trying to push the idea of moving the general to /trash/. Although he has some good arguments, it's obvious that he's doing it in order to flood the general with porn. Also, it would make harder to new users, or old users coming back, to find this general.
Isaac Cooper
Yeah, but that wasn't the trashman. Sadly I'm pretty sure we're gonna see him in a few hours.
Benjamin Watson
Nice to see how fast everyone still turns on each other when they mistake each other for, well, each other, I guess. Truly nothing of value will be lost as people start leaving.
Oh btw your furfag trash is named ICON. One of the old tripfags, but I doubt most of you remember what it was like to be here when everyone used trips.
Daniel Sanchez
Fuck off, nobody gives 2 shits about you.
Nathaniel Price
Head count! Reply to this post if you're currently playing any Animal Crossing title.
I don't want to believe it's just 15 people left.
William Gray
Wasent tripfag time the worst time? iv been here on and off for a quite some time and im pritty sure most hated it when it just became five people with trips circle jerking.
Sebastian Perry
Why does Beardo have pubes?
Andrew Hall
>18 There are eighteen of us.
Xavier Johnson
>Wasent tripfag time the worst time? Yes it was, that guy never said it was good or anything
Cameron Davis
Sure.
William Johnson
Alright
Jonathan Cook
I'm here yall, I've just been really busy.
Julian Gomez
There was a period after launch where a few people actually had to use trips because someone was impersonating them, yeah that was a bad time.
Much preferred the Namefag phase right at launch, where everyone had their name and town info up, just no actual trips.
Alexander Hall
yo
John Sullivan
Acknowledged and known; backatcha senpai.
Isaiah Thomas
Reporting
Jose Rivera
Passed a sporty fashion check, would your shops be open?
Bentley Rivera

Jordan Gonzalez

Robert Watson
So what's the deal with HHD?
Lucas Price
I would like to shop in other people's towns for Gracie's sale items.
Austin Young
I still need a petition signed. Could anyone help?
Justin Gray
I'm back. Sorry, my shops closed right now. Would you be here tomorrow?
I can help you
Jack Anderson
Probably. Might need to do laundry.
Levi Parker
HHD is a stripped down version of animal crossing with superior furniture mechanics.
Do you like putting down furniture? That's ALL you do in this game.
Jackson Wilson
Then I'll post tomorrow about the sale items in Gracie's store.
Also I found Katie in my town. Anyone want her?
Parker Cook
And now I got a petition. Can I visit someone else's town?
Ian Walker
sure! give me 5 mins to open
Isaiah Peterson
Thanks!
Liam Clark
open
Landon Jackson
bampu!
Owen Torres
I don't want to believe that /act/ is going down but it seems like it's going that way
