Lots of misconceptions in this thread haha
Hitting villagers with nets, pushing them into pitfalls and reporting them to Isabelle does absolutely nothing
It doesn't make them want to stay even more, nor does it make them want to leave the town.
These villagers are AI and don't have feelings
Ignoring villagers doesn't make them move out faster
They will move out at the same chance as every other villager, except they just won't tell you that they'll be moving.
The diving trick does not generate new move-out pings
A new mover is selected withing 5 days of declining a request.
Villagers you are good friends with have an equal chance of moving out than villagers whom you are not good friends with.
People may think that villagers you are friends with are more likely to move out because people ususally are good friends with the majority of the villagers in that town, so the random move-out lottery is more likely to land on one of their good friends.
Move out requests are 100% random
Every 5 days a new one will be generated.
Hope this clears things up a bit
