Along the same lines...
Maybe if the planet's annoying relatives keep dropping by and mooching of it
and just causing a general dysfunctional environment the planet will get
sick and tired of it and move on its own and not tell its relatives where it
moved so they won't be able to bother it anymore.
At least that's what I did when I moved and "forgot" to tell my brother
where I went.

(who's also sorry, for the slightly irrelavant post that is, not for not
telling his brother where he lives now)
