So my boy Marshall is in boxes. He was one of my dreamies and I never thought I would get rid of him until the incident happened. He started a romance with my girl Sally. They would visit each other’s houses, sing together and just hang around town together. They were the ultimate power couple. I shipped them hard. He even got a job as a security officer for her so they could settle down. Then I found him with ketchup. Caught red handed. He later tried to bribe me with furniture to keep this information to myself. Then I saw him with sally again, she obviously didn’t know of his betrayal. I would just void this cheater but I know other people love him as much as I did before he broke mine and Sally’s heart. So he is packed up and ready to go.

Edit: he’s gone to terrorize a new town. Thanks for the offers guys!

Ah, Anabelle. She moved into one of my original empty plots, and planted her roots firmly into my island. Honestly, more firmly than anyone could have ever wanted. I tried ignoring her, but she continued to send me letters. I caved, and started giving her hilariously awful gifts, but she ended up loving it (she still regularly wears her pink cowboy hat and displays her plastic pool indoors proudly). Despite her apparent appreciation for these gifts, she refuses to give me her photo. This playful tension has now been going on for more than a month, but (un?)luckily for me, she has grown tired of this community; she has decided to box up and further her popstar career on distant shores. Although part of me feels like her disappearance into the void would be a fitting end to our story, she has also established herself as an island icon, and thus deserves to at least be given a fair chance to start anew.

Some of Anabelle's best (or maybe, worst) selling points are:

-She is the only pangolin in Animal Crossing! Do you for some reason hate the beautiful, bushy tails on anteater villagers? Don't worry- Anabelle's hind quarters are devoid of any feathers! Her tail resembles a thicker version of a rat's, and her body appears to be covered in scales. She is exquisitely hideous.

-She exclusively eats sandwiches. No, I'm not just talking about her food habits; I rarely see her work out, sing (despite her dreams of being a popstar), or really do anything besides eat a sandwich. She is a sandwich queen.

-She has the impeccable talent of wandering into every video I am taking of higher-tier villagers being cute. Usually while eating a sandwich.

-Since she moved onto my island 2 months ago, she has been sick 7 times. I suspect that she may be doing this on purpose, to garner attention. Whatever the reason, she has cemented herself as a lovable burden on both myself and my other villagers.

In summary, every island needs a weird villager to spice up their community, and I can assure you that Anabelle will not disappoint. Or more accurately, she almost certainly will disappoint you, in the best possible way.

Disclaimer (in case you still need one): Anabelle is in no way original. She will arrive with many eyesore-level clothing pieces, could bring her plastic pool with her, and her most recent catchphrase that I'm aware of is "boof."

~

Update: As the void hour drew near, Anabelle found herself a new home! She has been accepted into a community of "unwanted" villagers, where she will have the freedom to be herself (and, of course, eat as many sandwiches as she wants). I'm excited that this special gal gets the opportunity to truly thrive!

Someone take this goddamned clown off my hands. Here's a story. I have 2 islands, one Southern Hemisphere and one Northern hemisphere. I found Judy while searching for my all-cat ethnostate Northern island, and got her in boxes to shunt to my Southern Island. I invite her. All is well. I check the plot after, and it reads as SOLD. I go to bed, feeling accomplished.

The next day PIETRO has moved in to the plot where Judy was supposed to move in. I was dumbfounded. Do you know what this means? Pietro MURDERED Judy.

So someone come take this clown. I'll take whatever you want to offer. Just get him away from me.

Got one of my starting villagers, Diva, in boxes

Her catchphrase is “just farted”.

Her greeting is “PHWOAR my fart smells”

She wears a mouldy dress.

Some of her most iconic lines

EDIT: Some more of her iconic lines

He is a demon. A nemesis. A plague. He runs all over my flowers. He laughs in my face. He sits where I need to go. He is making friends with other residents in a bid to overthrow me as lead of resident services. I see them laughing. Plotting.

Free to a good home. In boxes.

Our subreddit is the newest out of all of our sister subs, and we have been paying close attention to what’s been working and what hasn’t. We’ve made some updates to the [rules page] (https://www.reddit.com/r/ACVillager/wiki/rules) and we wanted to address the main change: as of today, you will no longer need to have your villager in boxes to make an ad.

That being said, we are paying VERY close attention to threads that don’t have the villager in boxes to make sure users are not backing out of trades. If you have agreed on a trade with another user, you must see it through to the end. You can read more here on what counts as backing out.

In addition, we are changing the villager per thread limit from only one (1) villager, to three (3) villagers per thread. So you may advertise up to 3 total villagers for trade per one thread. So please don’t post your entire amiibo collection. If you want to change the villagers you are offering, just close your thread and repost a new one!

Lastly, for those of you who want to do villager giveaways using an amiibo card, please make sure your thread does not stay up longer than 24 hours. As always, DM trading is against the rules, so please keep ALL negotiations with users in your thread, until you are ready to send the Dodo. You can close your thread if you are no longer taking offers, but continue to communicate in the comments.

As a reminder, if you are looking for payment for a villager, use the [FT] and [LF] tags. Using the [MO] tag is for free villagers only (which also means you cannot ask for tips!)

Happy trading, and good luck finding your dreamies!

ACV Mod Squad

looking for a home for Julian and you can give me 10nmt at most,, 5 is fine too just really want him to leave because my boyfriend with the same name is ghosting me and uhhhh the horse reminds me of him so gtfo hoe🙈

Unfortunately, in my infinite wisdom I gave Punchy the catchphrase “yeah boiiii” and it ended up spreading to other villagers. Including Ankha. It’s honestly hilarious. As long as you don’t mind that, she’s here for anyone who will love her more than I can. I also gifted her one dress

EDIT: closed

Hello friends! /u/Elysiane reporting in with a few rule reminders.

Previously on [MOD pOST]: Auctions are not allowed.

Price drama is not permitted.

If you don’t like the price of something, please just feel free to scroll on by instead of complaining about it. It’s unfortunate that some players might not be able to afford the asking price, but it’s a free market and some villagers take hours and hours of real-life time and NMT to acquire. Those two things both have value, and it’s not morally wrong for someone to want to be compensated for them.

No, mods will not put in “price caps”, nor will we warn people for “charging too much”. No, charging high prices is not against “the spirit of the game”. Feel free to check back in a few months when things aren’t as rare anymore, and prices will have dropped.

If you post to create price drama in any way, shape or form, you will be actioned.

Do not make callout posts.

If you meet a badly behaving trader or if you were stolen from on our subreddit or Discord, report it to the mods immediately with all available evidence you have. You can do this by uploading any screenshots to imgur.com, then sending a modmail (i.e send a private message to /r/ACVillager).

Do not make callout posts. Especially do not make callout posts if you were scammed on another subreddit or another Discord. Double especially do not make callout posts if you haven’t actually reported the incident. Callout posts will be removed, and offenders actioned.

As always, you can peruse our directory of banned users at /r/ACBanhammer.

Sob stories are not allowed.

Friends, if you’d like to post a trade, please post a trade. Do not make it a variation of “My save corrupted and someone scammed me on Discord and also my little brother set my goldfish on fire today so I need my favorite villager Raymond to cheer me up”.

We do not allow posts of this type, because they often guilt commenters into giving the OP things for free, or for lower prices than they would have charged otherwise. It’s a form of begging, and it’s poor behavior. There are tons of kind users here who offer things free of charge constantly and we don’t need to make them feel worse. Posts with sob stories will be removed, and offenders actioned.

If you’ve had a bad day and you want to talk and hang out with fellow AC players, you can always join us on our Discord server -- we have free talk channels for this reason!

Due to the influx of new AC players to the sub, almost all offenses are receiving a temporary ban.

Warnings are not getting through to anyone right now, and rules are being broken right and left. We are receiving well in excess of 100 reports per day. If your post breaks rules, there’s a solid chance you’re going to get a temporary ban. Do everyone a favor and don’t do the thing.

The ones that are broken the most:

• Don’t PM trade.

• Don’t crosspost.

• Don’t proxy trade.

• Don’t start an auction.

These are all pretty easy to avoid. Don’t post your ad in multiple places, conduct all trading on the thread and don’t accept people contacting you via PM, don’t post on behalf of people who aren’t you, and don’t start a bidding war.

Read your ban message before messaging mods if you received a ban.

All ban messages state the exact ban reason in the form of numbered rules. or a section in the wiki. If you message the mods to ask why you were banned, you will simply be asked to re-read the ban message.

Here are the numbered rules. Here’s the comprehensive wiki. You should have read both of those before posting.

If you were banned for violating a rule listed there, please use the ban time to revise the rules, instead of trying to invent reasons to get out of them. Rules lawyering to get out of your ban is not recommended and also against our rules, as the letter and the spirit of all rules will be enforced.

Thank you for joining us today, and as always, stay safe <3

XOXO,

Your mod team

So. I'm a stylist. (Says it right there on my passport. "Full-Fledged Stylist", really.) So I get this horse on my island. Blue. Sparkly Eyes. Purple Lids. Little horn. A fab mane of hair. But what is he wearing?

Get this. Sparkle Unicorn is wearing...... a hoodie. The horror. A cosmic hoodie on my full-fledged stylin' island. So I take the horse and I tells him. I tells him, "Ya can't walk around this place in a hoodie. It's obscene. More obscene than you not wearing pants." And he says "What?" And I tells him again. Takes him by the hoof. Drags him to Able's and gets the unicorn some clothes.

Real clothes. No hoodies.

A business suit coat. An argyle sweater. A sparkly blue jacket to match his sparkly blue heart. I get him stylin'. And the unicorn loves 'em so much, he says to me, "Princess." And I says, "Yeh." and he says to me, "here's my photo," and after accepting it, he says to me some time later, "I'm ready to bounce." And I lets him.

So there ya have it. Get yourself a well-dressed horse for a small fee of NMT. (No designs in Able's. Just clothes.)

Edit: Julian is styling on another island now. :^ )

I'm never going to financially recover from this

My little protester is in boxes today. He is well-loved and has many clothes. Nothing outrageous though. His current catchphrase is “Mmm, bugs!”

Flurry is in boxes today and honestly I'm kind of relieved.... she has some real issues. It started with this hamster cage in the corner of her house. I was a little concerned, but whatever, I mind my own business and my villagers mind theirs, right? wrong. flurry soon started trying to pass off her prisoner onto ME. she's so persistent I get the feeling she was trying to frame me for whatever in order to buy herself more time.

next she started wearing this military uniform all the time, which i only gave her because i was out of red and pink dresses. I've never seen her in a single cute dress but she clearly feels right at home in her military uniform. she seriously wears it every other day at least. is it because it reminds her of her life before she fled to a deserted island? only flurry can say, and she's not talking. she talks like a COINTELPRO memo or something. I didn't even know it was possible to pronounce redactions.

If you'd like to spare Flurry the justice she deserves, let me know and she's all yours. It's your island or the hague.

My Rosie is moving out! Thank God because I hate her- Anyways, her catchphrase is f*ck and I'm not sure if anyone would want that... but she's still up for grabs!

EDIT: She's already been sold, but I'm glad you guys like my Rosie so much! And thanks for telling me that the catchphrase doesn't transfer, I didn't know that :o

Hello, community,

I come to you today to hopefully learn the whereabouts of the coveted, the elusive Raymond the Smug Cat.

Please allow me to explain. You see, here at The Wilds, we have cobbled together our very own storybook fairy tale-themed island. It started as nothing more than a deserted island, and with hard work, elbow grease, and a lot of help from a wonderful cast and crew, it’s grown into the nearly perfect fairy tale it is today. The stage is set, the lights are up, and Raymond, our star actor, has been cast as Puss in Boots.

… Which would be all well and good, if we could actually find him.

We’ve been searching everywhere for this cat. He’s missed dress rehearsal. He won’t respond to my voicemails. He won’t even show up to costume fittings, and we all know how much Raymond loves to dress up. The director is growing impatient. I’m just the hapless stage manager on the receiving end of all this stress, but I will not be discouraged! All the world’s a stage and the show must go on!

As for the locals, the troupe has been filling up with some very friendly and neighborly folk, and everyone has been adapting to their roles well. Gladys as The Crane Wife. Wolfgang as The Big Bad Wolf. Bunnie as The Rabbit on the Moon. And Marcel as, uh--

… Okay, nobody really knows why Marcel is here. But he’s a champ and he’s doing amazing and we hope he never changes.

Oh, but rest assured! We’re not the type of troupe to run our actors ragged (unlike some companies out there). Raymond will have a very cush life on The Wilds. He has full access to all the free snacks he could want at our stocked food stalls. For a little entertainment, he can take a spin on our tea cup ride, or test his luck at our prize game wheel corner, and if he’s just looking to relax, there is no shortage of picturesque vistas that could make any cat purr.

As for the fees, uhhhh… Well, I’ll be honest. We don’t have much. Maybe a few dozen Nook Mile Tickets (60 or so, if our financial advisor is to be trusted) and a few million bells (6.9 million, hah! Nice!). Funding cuts for the arts, you know how it is, and certainly not enough to match the demands we usually see for our star actor. Regardless, we’re scrappy folk here on The Wilds. We’ll throw open the ol’ prop closet and costume wardrobe for you to take your pick, if that’s what it takes! We’ve got a very talented scenic design crew that can craft almost whatever you’d like too!

If you’ve seen this cat, and if you could finally convince him to make the big move to The Wilds, please send him over our way. We’ve all been looking forward to his arrival, and we can’t wait for him to finally join the crew.

Signed,

A very tired (but hopeful) stage manager

EDIT: After a long, long vacation, and a very helpful tip from doritokween, Raymond has finally decided to put down the coconut drink and head back onstage. That's a few less gray hairs I'll have to worry about. A few. But hey, I wouldn't be a stage manager if I weren't afraid of some premature graying, am I right, or am I right?

Thank you everyone for your support, encouragement, well-wishing, and heck, even just a bit of your attention. We absolutely could not have assembled our crew of merry villagers without your help, and The Wilds' theater troupe promises to put on a spectacular show!!!

Apple the Hamster is F-I-N-A-L-L-Y in boxes, and moving out.

I know, she somehow seems to be a crowd favorite, but she has been an absolute blight on my community.

Here's Apple being cruel to my sweet baby angel Derwin, who has never done anything wrong.

Here's Derwin sharing how he feels about Apple still having the guts to stick around my town.

Here's Apple messing with the wrong gorilla.

100% of the arguments and anger reactions in my town have been as a result of this absolute rodent, and I am eager for her to be out of my town.

That being said, I'm not looking to "spread the Apple love". I'm looking for a Knight's Helmet, and if nobody has one I'm completely happy to let this monster be consumed by the digital nether of moving off my island into the ocean.

Let me know if you want this base creature to plague your daily island life.

So, it all started with island hopping.

Found Marina. Neat! Sent her off to a good home.

I went island hopping again. Who do I find a few islands in? Marina again. Got her in boxes and sent her on her way.

Today I went island hopping to fill her plot. Three islands in I find Marina. Is she following me? Do I need a restraining order? She looks super sweet but... Is she?

Please come take her away. I'm scared.

EDIT: The curse has been lifted. I'm very grateful to everyone who wanted to help!

Beardo is in boxes. 5 weeks ago, Beardo visited my sister's campsite, and forced his way onto her island. He immediately began wreaking havoc on all things she loved - showing off his happy trail to underage villagers, and just being an overall nuisance emanating bad vibes.

Basically, my sister has always been a rock to me -- she's reliable and always positive, but things changed when Beardo moved in. She started to snap at me, calling me names, and sometimes when I would visit her house and she would be sleeping she would curse and sleep walk and call me "Beardo Satan." She really hasn't been herself, and she hasn't been pleasant to be around. She and her fiancé almost split up because during a fight she said "you're just like Beardo."

I want someone who doesn't like Beardo to take him from my sister's Island. The reason is, I want Beardo to feel the rejection of being sent away, OVER AND OVER AND OVER again. I don't want him to live happily in the void, blissfully unaware of the spite I hold for him. Please take him. That is all I ask. I want my sister to rest in peace, knowing that the demon that tortured her for so long is finally out of her life. For good.

He will be available in a few hours but I will wait until he has a guaranteed home before I begin to move him out!

Hey everyone,

Thank you for getting us over the 10k subs mark! We’re so happy to see this and hope our platform has helped you in your AC quest.

This is a general reminder that we do not allow auction posts. This has been in our rules since we opened 3 weeks ago, yet we continue to see dozens of auctions a day.

From our sidebar:

Auctions are strictly prohibited. This includes but is not limited to including phrases like "current offer", "buyout", and "highest offer". It is fine to tell an interested trader that you are expecting more for your villager, but do not try to start a bidding war.

It’s okay to keep waiting if you feel you’re not getting a high enough offer, but encouraging users (whether you mean to or not) to bump up their offers is not okay. Encouraging people to bid creates an auction too. If someone’s interested, they can always refresh the thread and see what the best offer is for themselves.

We are handing out bans for posting AND for participating in auctions.

Please make sure you’re familiar with all our rules before you post anything, and if you’re ever in doubt then you can modmail us.

Do not individually message mods because we will not answer anything sent to our personal inbox.

Thanks everyone and happy adopting!

Your loving mod team

—- Edit: Some further clarity

If OP is [LF] a specific amount of bells, or NMT, or anything; that is okay and not an auction

Posts with “best offer” are fine. Best is subjective and doesn’t always mean “the most amount of NMT you could possibly give me”. As long as you are not specifying what item or currency you want the best offer in.

Example - “[FT] Jambette [LF] best offers “- ok because it’s very general, doesn’t specify exactly what the OP want the offer in.

[FT] Jambette [LF] best offer in NMT - not ok because OP is specifying which currency they want the “best” offer in. On this scenario, best is just another way of saying “highest”

To avoid any confusion, if you don’t know what you want in exchange for a villager, we recommend you just say “offers”.

Edit2: further clarity on the above

You can find our previous modpost here: Avoiding DM Scams and Misc. Reminders

Flurry the normal hamster is in boxes today after being kicked out by a camper! The only catch is that I have absolutely destroyed her with presents and completing her requests. She has countless stupid outfits. Many dumb hats. A sea bass she insists on displaying right next to her bed. She is worth the world to me, but I know I’m not going to get anything for her in a real trade, so if you love Flurry enough to take her with all the evidence of how well-loved she was on my island, you are welcome to her!

Yes, I have gifted this Poppy many gifts because I love her so much. Honestly her fashion sense is incredible and she always wears my designs because she is confident in her ability to coordinate an outfit, see pictures below for evidence

https://i.imgur.com/hxe8wld.jpg

I am honestly so sad to let the cutest squirrel girl go, but Pekoe is in my campsite and asked her to leave... I guess it’s time. I don’t want anything for her, aside from a promise to love her!

I got Rodney from a friend’s void. On my friend island, Rodney was locked up in prison and beat with nets. When he came to my island, my goal was to make him feel loved and see if I can help deflate his ego and make him a better person.

I equipped him with a helmet in case my friend comes by to beat him again, and night vision goggles so he can always see me and know I’m there for him.

I also gave him a poo hat because he’s a lil turd.

He was only on my 5 star island for 2 weeks before his smug ass asked to move out. Usually I’d wait until I’ve received their photo before letting them move, but you know what, Rodney? “I wish you the best!”

If you want a smug hamster on your island, come get him! He is unreasonably cute which can make you forget he’s a neck beard.

He’s so desperate to fit in so he quickly picked up my other villager’s sayings.

His nose is so stuck up he will ask you often “did you fart?”, even though we all know whoever smelt it dealt it.

He believes “earth is flat” since Klaus and Ozzie run a flat earth propaganda machine he’s fallen right into, that stupid moron.

He’s been helping Muffy promote “Kony 2012” and he ends convos by saying “RIP Prince” which I fear he only says to make me forget his actual terrible taste in music.

I think his rude ‘tude is only because he craves love and attention and he is projecting his own self-hatred toward everyone else. Hurt people hurt people. Best of luck to anyone who ends up with this red pill.

Hey everyone,

We've had several reports against this user in the last few days. He has been banned, but he's DMing people and scamming them this way instead.

DO NOT DM/PM TRADE. IT'S FOR YOUR OWN SAFETY.

If someone DM's you, ask them to respond in the comments of your post, and remember to finish the trade there (exl. dodo code). If they refuse to do this, stop DMing them and move on.

This user DM's offering popular villagers, some of which he has, for example Judy. He ends the session when you've dropped your items, sending you home empty handed.

CHECK THE BAN LIST.

This user's /rACBanhammer page is here.

r/ACBanhammer has a ban list, including FCs. You can search the FC using the subreddit's search function.

If you're scammed or you think something weird is happening, gather evidence. Use the video/screenshot function on the Switch. Keep any DM's and screenshot any threads/comments.

Report to Modmail with full details of what happened, including proof.

As always, we don't tolerate callout posts.
