[b]ByronVilla[/b] (-55%) - [post=#10224676]70[/post] is bad. The "this Khan wagon is picking up steam..." comment in [post=#10226994]118[/post] feels off. [post=#10227082]122[/post] reads as frustration, but I don't think it is highly indicative of Byron's alignment. Then we had the useless [post=#10227102]129[/post] where Byron [i]looks[/i] like he is doing things. If you want my honest and biased opinion (of course you do), [post=#10227493]144[/post] feels like the "Oh, now that people are pointing out things that are wrong with my posts, I feel like I gotta start addressing them." To clarify, the post just doesn't feel very genuine. That's probably a bad explanation too. It just does not feel like town defending themselves, but rather, it feels like scum defending themselves. [post=#10230086]187[/post] also for whatever reason feels like a scum-motivated post. It starts off with "Yeah, I don't really get why everyone jumped on Espeonage" which just feels like Byron knows Espeonage is town, and he ends the post with "The man hasn't even made a post consisting of more than two lines of his own" which makes no sense in terms of scumreading a person.

Ok it feels like you just ignored post 144 where I defended a lot of these points.

70 was pressuring you to do something other than just one-liners and blind voting.

The 118 comment is a fair point of criticism, but it's nothing to call someone scum over unless you just want to pressure them.

129 was a grammar correction post, I never meant to do anything in this post bar correct some mistakes in my 122 and I assumed that was obvious. I even stated that it was all the post was in 144 and yet you still act like I intended people to be fooled by it and think 'Oh yeah that's another post by Byron nice'

144 was a defense post (and I guess this one is too but hey ho), however do you expect me after someone completely picks apart my posts to just ignore them or to actually defend myself? I feel like I was left with a Catch 22 here. Either defend your points and come off as defensive, fueling your 'Byron is scum and isn't really doing all that much' mindset, or I just ignore the posts and fuel your 'Byron is scum and isn't really doing all that much' mindset.

Also this whole read that makes you think I have a 55% chance of being scum feels weak. The only things you have going for your read is that:
-I made a comment that felt off in 118
-I made a grammar correction post, which I stated later was not made with the intention of 'looking like I was doing stuff'.
-My defense didn't feel genuine
-Some more odd comments in 187
To me, if I had these reads on someone they'd be like 25% scum, as a lot of it is based around gut over anything that's truly a solid read.
