I see thank you.
Isabell's post is completely in-character as you have remarked upon, but I think I'll wait for her to post some more. This is the first time I have been in her presense and I will reserve my judgement whether her first post was harmless in-character fun or some sort of wicked wolvish scheme.
It's not so much being against 'lynch the quiet' you can say its more of the manner
Menel said lynch the 'unhelpful.' Yes there are bound to be quiet wolves and they are going to be tough to get out...but there is a difference between being unhelpful and keeping a low profile (being quiet).
I don't understand why any innocent would not want to help out and contribute but the way
Menel says it looks evil...let me explain it this way.

The point being the wolves are not going to want to appear unhelpful. They are going to want to fit in, they are going be want to look helpful, not unhelpful. The way quiet wolves do fit in is pop in with a little comment once in a while that we all skim over and cast aside, which creates a low profile and we virtually just forget about him/her. Even if they are quiet they still are going to want to appear helpful and contributing, they just don't participate as much...because being quiet creates their low profile, and by appearing helpful (with the few posts they do make) this is what causes us all to forget about them (because nothing stands out in their posts they seem normal).
It's the way
Menel phrases it...its all coming off to me as 'well if we can't find a wolf, lets waste a day and lynch someone who isn't helping.' I don't think we can just go and waste days so needlessly...our job is to lynch wolves not lynch an unhelpful villager to get the wolves talking. The wolves are going to be talking and contributing anyway, and some of the wolves are probably going to be amongst the quiet crowd, but that doesn't mean these quiet wolves aren't going to appear helpful and contributing.
