You really need to quote or at least say which of my posts you are replying too, because:
To be honest, I was thinking mainly about my own perception of his post, but the voter that most came to mind was GiD. His was the vote that escalated the situation and prompted me to address the situation.
This kind of thing would really be much better in context.
I said that no one was voting SD for tone, they were voting him for content. My theory was about you noticing something scummy he said and trying to cover for him. My evidence was that since no one else was voting him on tone, but rather on content,
you
must have found him scummy. So I don't know how we jumped to you using that as a defense. It's not a defense, it's an admission.
GiD voted for pressure, not because of tone. You were addressing the situation before his vote, you twice mentioned the 2nd language thing, which basically implies that everyone should slow down or back off.
The point of all this: you found his tone scummy enough to
assume it was the reason for the votes
. But you were pushing a subtle defense. Now you say his tone is a little off, but otherwise defend him (in 83).
I've already answered your last question when GiD asked it. Check the previous page.
Correct me if this isn't who you were responding too:

: Are you meaning Vas in the post above, otherwise I don’t understand where you got that from?
I’m also amazed why it is discussed whom you trust, rather than whom you find suspicious (Post 55 by Plum and post 60 by Vas). But to be fair Vas mentioned Shadow Dancer as mildly scummy and when commented on that by Jack puts a vote there a few posts later.

Post 55 is Plum saying she disagrees with my pre-role PM scumreads, and post 60 is Vasu saying I'm town for nonspecific reasons. The first is the opposite of not discussing who I find suspicious, and the second isn't even related to that dichotomy AFAIK.
You're correct that I am trying to learn more about SD on account of the increased scrutiny.
It sounds to me like you threw in an excuse for defending SD out of the blue. What post by GiD are you talking about?
Iecerint wrote:If you're claiming that said "planting" was me asking whether English was his second language, then you are indeed horribly paranoid.
Why was I not horribly paranoid when I said that bit about you lying about not having a pm? Why isn't the whole case horribly paranoid?
If you are townie, and think I'm town, then you should think I'm horribly paranoid. If you are townie, and think I'm scum, then I shouldn't be paranoid, because scum aren't paranoid.
If Jack is town, it is unlikely that future discussion with him will make me more convinced of the fact. So that promotes ending discussion at the moment.
If Jack is scum, his rhetoric has already crossed the scumrhetoric threshold, so there's diminishing returns from continuing discussion with him at the moment.
What the heck is this supposed to mean? If I'm town, more discussion won't make you more convinced that I'm town? You can't mean that. What's the "scumrhetoric" threshold?
This sounds like a failed attempt to appear unsure of my alignment.
