You misunderstood me. The weird/conventional-thing was indeed only a bait. Once more, I was looking for people trying to encourage others to discuss that thing without getting involved and giving an opinion themselves. I was not looking for the helpful ones, I was looking for the uncontroversial (just to put a label on it) ones. I planned to accuse them exactly because of their behavior, and I don't think this would have been contradicting at all.
Legate is right: This stereotype isn't failsafe - of course not - but it's good enough until something really suspicious comes up from somebody.

Of those who have spoken this far, Mac looks the most suspicious. The way he seems to have decided to play is beyond my comprehension, and, well, he seems to be giving an over-honest impression. I said that his response (#81) to me was the most innocentish thing he had said during this day, but it really isn't, at least it's not somehow more innocent than his other posts. It's... when a wolf is trying people, it's more important than it is for an innocent to let everybody know that he wasn't being serious. I think Mac's eagerness to explain what he was doing looks like that.
He is saying things like "a wolf would have a reason to do what I did". When he's saying that while doing those things, it's easy to get the first impression that he can't be a wolf because if he was he wouldn't have said that. And that's the thing that worries me most about him.

Aganzir, I don't understand what you're trying to say. I never said anything like "a wolf would have a reason to do what I did". That's how some have interpreted me, and I jokingly agreed to it once. I'm eager to explain myself? Well, people have been eager to ask me to. And why do you say I was not serious just because I admitted I was laying out a bait for the wolves on a slow-going Day One? That doesn't make sense.
I re-revise my opinion of
Aganzir: Possible wolf.
I also revise my opinion of
Lommy: Misled innocent.
