As long as you are being left alone everything is fine between us, but when I am suspicious of you you start attacking my playstyle, talking about how much you hate playing this game, calling my posts garbage and generally demeaning what is a genuine and significant effort, and you are not apologetic at all when I get annoyed by it. I have apologised to you.
I'd like you to stop to consider how your criticism has made me feel. It's personally insulting and hurts, but if that's your intention then fine.
Everything was all fine until my civ read of you disappeared (due entirely to deduction, nothing you actually did, because you are playing well) and lo and behold out comes the "I'm frustrated etc." again. You didn't seem frustrated at all when I had a civ read on you. You did the same thing to MP too, but I believe that to be contrived. You guys were distancing one another.
The other game we played together, you did the same thing, you turned out to be bad and won the game surviving as a bad guy. Your tactic is to be a jerk to anyone who suspects you so they leave you alone. That's fine, it's your play style. But if your play style revolves around being a jerk to win games, you have no right to complain about anybody's style at all.
I don't attack your playstyle. I don't do anything you are accusing me of. I am not meaning to critique your playstyle, but rebuff your critique of mine.
You made an insinuation that a high post count denotes a civilian. This is silly in itself, but you also make the insinuation that everyone else has not posted enough to meet the standard. TBH, that's garbage. 192 posts is not something to be ashamed of and neither is 32 or whatever the number was. Your incessant focus on this is insulting to me.

I don't think I've been overly aggressive or gnarly, but okay.
I feel like you have time, and time again tried to shame me and others for not posting enough, and thus, not being civs. I have repeated myself on this matter. If you are insulted by this, I do apologize, but I have offered to open a dialogue with you through the MoD several times, and I have not gotten a response in this vein.
Sigh.
I don't believe I have been incessant about the point. I don't think it's fair to use words like incessant and time and time again to describe it, nor have I tried to shame anybody. If anything I am ashamed of my own numbers of posts. I also believe having nearly 900 posts in a game when nobody else has 200 is funny which was my reason for posting. But yes, it is indicative of my alignment because for days I have felt like there has been coasting scum teams and have been trying very hard, feeling like I was the only one actually trying to win for the rebellion. Hell we have Bubbles flip civ so I think it's a fair point?
That's all about me, and is why I have so many posts. It is no indictment on others and has nothing to do with them. If you feel like I've been trying to do that, I haven't, and I apologise for making you feel that way.
I do believe some bad guys struggle to produce content compared to civilians, but it's certainly not a hard and fast rule and some players are capable of high levels of content when bad (I am, Golden, Zebra, MP, you (eg. Reborn) and many more). I know that some aren't. In TH my teammates were Bullz, Russ and Wilgy and were the 3 lowest posters in the game towards end game. I know that some players are always low posters no matter alignment. I've never said otherwise.
But, the numbers right now are just so big that it was interesting to me, so I posted it. It's like the first time I've harped on the point in at least 2 real world weeks and even back then I wasn't formulating my whole strategy around it. Matt as recent as yesterday was still talking about lynching low posters. I don't think anyone here is bad for being a low poster. In fact nobody actually is one. The Jawas having few posts makes perfect sense. I think my numbers making me civ is a more poignant point.
I received a message through the mod once, I sent back an apology. It was about saying you play like an asshole. That's the only thing I've heard.
...
And Wilgy if somehow you are actually a Tusken then I can promise you that Dom is bad. If you are not, he simply must be and so must Matt. So you leaving him poisoned is gonna kill a bad guy as long as one of us don't get a ton of votes right now. Dom reckons he's not gonna vote for you. So he'll have to vote for me if he wants to survive your poison right? Matt will probably vote for me in that case. That'd put me 3-1 ahead. Would he still get lynched Wilgy? Has he been poisoned long enough?
At this point, I suppose I would call upon Russ and Niju to vote for Dom which is unfortunate because he'll probably call it a no u or something.
