How to get rid of annoying villagers?

[Treetop]

I was wondering how to get rid of the annoying villagers in my town and was wondering what would help?
I'm thinking of hitting them with a net, but I am worried that the villager will move to another town and say that I did this and that ect.

I would also like to get rid of villagers that I don't want in my village so I can get a different one.

Any suggestions/videos/pictures?

Thanks in advance!

I have been trying to get rid of a villager for more than a month. This is what I have learned. Not talking to them does not make them move away. Nor does hitting them with a hammer.

Rather, the villagers that ask to move away are the ones I spend the most time with.

Therefore I have started a new approach: I talk to the unwanted villager daily, but if them run up to me to ask a question I don't talk to them (that way if they are asking to move- no chance to change their mind!) I've been trying this for a week so far... Pretty much every villager except for 1 other has asked me to move (and my unwanted villager was a starter...)

Good luck getting rid of yours!

When you talk to Isabelle she has an option to "report annoying neighbors" or something, but I never actually tried it.. I assume choosing that option will cause them to move away.. I may try it because I got Broffina the chicken in my town and I hate them.

You can report, but it does not make them move away. It does make them be nicer to you though. There should be some dialogue changes when they do.

So wait, I think what you said got a little jumbled. So if you ignore your favorite villagers when they ding and only talk to the unwanted villagers when they do?

It worked for me! I was able to get one villager to move out within a week by constantly hitting him with a hammer and ignoring him.

I need to figure this out as well, I don't like two of my villagers.

Let me correct myself, it's "Problematic Citizen".

Mint: I must then try harder to be mean to her! Getting out the hammer now!

I dont know if its the same in this game, but in the others, things I did included:

- Hitting them with the net so they got mad
- Trapping them with pitfalls often
- Destroying any flowers they planted

You can report "bad" neighbors at the town hall. This will make them move away.

I believe it may have something to do with the personality and the method to get rid of them. I have been hitting Vladimir for several months, along with pushing, pitfalls ect, but he seems reluctant to move, I tried the same thing with robin about a week ago and she's already gone

Well let's try. I already whacked the villager with the bug net several times. Poor Coco, but, I just prefer someone having eyes when I talk to them.

Edit:
I'm not sure if reporting works, after seeing the options Isabelle gave me. I think it's designed to let parents "reset" the villager to get rid of "offensive" language.

No no no

Reporting to Isabelle wont make them move at all. Hitting with a hammer decreases friendship level! , The ignore the villager trick wont work for me. I find that if I speak to them they will ping about asking.

Just the hammer? Or does net work too?

I've researched this all over, including different forums. It's really confusing, some swear ignoring works, others swear you have to really build up the friendship level (in other words, they will move on once they've "accomplished" everything there is in your town then move on). I've tried both, and both work, so I'm beginning to think it's either random or both methods work but not reliably.

I will say one thing, hitting them with the toy hammer is very satisfying! Makes you feel better when they are being stubborn and just won't budge.

I read from a couple other forums, too. There seems to be no actual method, just random luck.

I did try ignoring the one that I wanted out for maybe 10 days. He still wished me happy birthday, so no luck there.
Then, I tried sending him items that he dislikes in the mail. He still thank me for the items. Yikes!
However, 2 days after I started to send him dislike items, a rumor spread by another villager saying that he wanted out. I was so happy!
The rumor did float around for another 2 days before he personally told me he wanted out.

Anyway, I think it was just luck.
BTW, he is in boxes today! Yay, so long Peewee.

I think it's mainly luck. Heck, sometimes I've TT'd and villagers that haven't been around long has asked to move. Yet I can't get rid of one villager I've had since the beginning. Luckily I'm getting out a new-ish villager I didn't want from a streetpass by the end of this week, and he hasn't been around a full month.

The villager should arks you if he/she wants to move to see if they do run in there faces but if they don't here's my way : I did this
With Henry when he build his house over my little hybrid garden hit them with a net/hammer blank them for 1 week push them into
Pitraps then if this dose not work I don't know
