Anyways in Post 149 I've already defended my stance and mentioned that it wasn't absolute. Everyone who's bitching at me about it seems to overlook that post.That's not a good defense of your stance considering you're asking us to overlook a post that is trying to "get the game rolling" in the wrong direction (that is, with her immediately placed in a box labeled, "Town") and now you've snowballed with it and man, now accusations are flying!

I thought it's already apparent why people do it but okay:
If you're defending someone who made a nonsensical post a.k.a ("I know these questions are bad buuut... let's answer them anyway!" and statements like these may be harmless in real life, but in mafia, they are an attempt at making one's self look town despite contributing almost zero effort) then that means you're allied with them. You don't want to get them in trouble. But that comes at a risk of sharing the blame if the post was as "weird" as MG's was.
As I stated before in the clusterfuck that is post 310, the posts are "weird" for a reason. A bad reason. Those statements are wolves in sheep's clothing. They are therefore scummy and defending them makes you look the same way.

Also, it's one thing to defend mathgirl with really bad reasons "Hey, there's no harm in saying that! She's only trying to 'get the game rolling'!" but it's another to vote mathgirl with no reason provided. The reasons why anacreon and cat are scum, respectively (anac defending w/ bad reasoning & cat voting w/o reasoning).
