I've been trying to kick him (Croque) out for WEEKS. I don't talk to him,I pitfall I'm and mercilessly beat him, and this has successfuly worked before. I don't want to time travel or ruin my town to drive him out, any ideas?
Become really good friends with Croque. If you ignore them and they ask to move, they'll think you two weren't good friends and will stay. Bad move ignoring them.
Since they already hit Crouqe and continued beating them, this started a relationship with the villager. Ignoring them from that point on would be the worst choice. If you want Croque out, befriend him/her. Ignoring works best if you've never talked to them at all
Thanks for the advice, and I did get Amelia to move like this... maybe it was a coincidence. He was a starting villager I began ignoring only recently, but never once since June has asked to move. I'll try befriending him.
