How to get rid of annoying villagers?

[Rinny_]

If you carry on talking to the villager, it will eventually suggest moving. However, It can also say it doesn't want to leave. If your village is past the advice stage (The last thing they talk about is the camera) and then ignore it for a week or so, it usually moves. If you don't get it past the advice stage it may suggest it wants to stay. There is no fool proof method sadly.

Using the hammer or hitting them with a net does not help at all. It may even decrease the chances.

The quickest way for me was to be friends with them. It sounds tedious and super frustrating especially with the fact that you dislike them, but it really works and I have kicked all villagers out with this method, example; Pashmina moved out after 1 week because I spoke to her on a daily basis until she got annoyed.

You have a slight advantage if, as stated, you befriend them. I dreaded that because I didn't want to wait longer by befriending them, but Frita, who took a few [in-game] months to move, clearly wanted to stay. I was frustrated (she was in a really bad spot) but had no choice but to be compliant, as all my efforts were futile. Then, Deirdre moved in. When that happened, Frita pinged me two days later. Soon, I got Kyle to move in, and then Kidd pinged me a day later (even though I actually liked Kidd and made no efforts to kick him out). The trend here is that once another villager of the same personality type moves in, the 'first' one apparently wants to move out. Now, Bob will arrive in several hours and I hope that'll get Derwin to ping, too (he's also in a bad spot; I want to build a bridge there).

Then again, the first two instances were most likely just luck. It's still pretty random, but I'll see if it actually works again for me.
