Cool, just stay offline if you do though. I don't want people dropping hacked in items on my island, it kind of defeats the purpose of progression for those who aren't cheating.

By the way, how can we visit other players' islands? We don't have any friends with a Switch with whom to exchange invitation codes.

  I read that people are exchanging codes on Twitter etc.

  There is no way to arbietrarily visit someone else's island, you have to be invited somehow. If you don't have friends with a Switch, you can visit someone's islands with a "Dodo code" (i.e. a unique-ID for that island). As someone mentioned, some folks have gone via Twitter and I magine Reddit has a subreddit for it too. One good thing is unless you are "best friends" on the game (this is a an additional step to being Switch friends), they cannot do many things on the island (chop down trees is the main thing I noticed).

You think these people just go around to strangers' islands and drop hacked items all over the place? Sick prank.

  This reminds me of the original Dungeon Siege. My friends and I always played on password protected servers hosted by one of us because there were so many cheaters out there and we wanted to feel like we'd earned our levels and equipment. Sometimes we forgot to set a password and invariably some max level character would join and kill absolutely everything, then offer us cool items with impossible stats they'd "found". I never understood the appeal. I actually had printed out a big stack of papers describing all the prefixes and suffixes in the game along with on which item types they could appear without cheating. Most of the time I didn't need to consult it since most cheaters would offer you the same item: "of Agony Ring of Agony".
