So I added this girl from a group on facebook because I was selling her a Gracie item. All well and good, bada bing, bada boom. Done. Didn't think I'd need to see her again. Didn't think I'd need to delete her fc.
Maybe a week passes, maybe less, but I have my gate open for someone else to come grab something.
Who comes? NOT the person I invited, but this girl. And she starts to wander my town. I finally encounter her and she asks if she can explore. All well and good. I enjoy exploring. She leaves my sight and I CANNOT for the life of me find her. I literally must have looked for a half an hour. Finally, I'm done with this and tell her I have to go to bed and end.
She talked to all my villagers!! Now they mention her occasionally and all I can feel is annoyed because talking to villagers isn't generally part of exploring.
Don't get me wrong, I don't mind if people talk to my villagers, but I like to be asked and generally only allow people I enjoy playing with to speak to them because it's a pleasant reminder of a fun experience.

Now I'm debating whether or not to let my villagers move and get them back or reset.
 
That sucks but I'm not sure I'd go as far as resetting my town because of that...Next time, be sure to be explicit about your wants.
 
It's not a "general rule" that this is a no-no. It's one of those rules that is different for everyone and is more common among some people than others. I never talk to people's villagers, but that's only because I know there are people who mind it and others who don't.

It's much more likely that she never meant to "ruin" your town and that she just never met someone who didn't want visitors to talk to villagers, so she never guessed that it would be an issue.

I know it's annoying (I had a villager mention a visitor I didn't even remember for a really long time) but resetting sounds too much.

As far as I know, villagers stop mentioning visitors after a while. If you have friends you wouldn't mind your villagers mentioning, invite them over to talk to your villagers. That will make them more likely to mention your recent visitors (your friends) and not that girl.
 
Well when you get villagers from other towns they also talk about their previous towns for awhile sure that's annoying but nothing you can do about it. I wouldn't go as far as resetting by any means lol and I'm pretty sure your villagers will stop or atleast not mention it as often as time passes. :)
 
I've never seen that as a general no-no. I never bother talking to other villagers but many people have spoken to mine, lol please chill.
 
Running in towns, chopping trees and stealing stuff are of course massive rules that any player would a good morality would avoid breaking... but not talking to villagers because them mentioning your character may annoy the host seems a bit too technical to be a "general rule" to me.

Maybe in the future warn people not to talk to your villagers as apposed to assuming they would know not to do that... I certainly wouldn't of known ether if I'm honest, aha!
 
Resetting your villagers over something like this is pretty silly. I'm sure your villagers will stop talking about her in due time. I wouldn't think too much of it.
 
I definitely wouldn't reset my town or go through the 16 villager cycle over it. Just next time someone wanders in your town, flip the wifi switch.
 
imo you shouldnt get rid of your villagers just because someone talked to them, especially if they're dreamies. i'd probably be ticked off too, but you could have always flipped the wi-fi switch, deleted her fc and got back to whoever you were trading with afterwards
