What happened to Vanilla Cop?

Vanilla is the role of a mafia goon, I think it makes sense to have vanilla cop as is.

Friendly neighbor does make things a bit wonky I agree with that.

We could take a pAge out of epic mafia and call neighbors Templars.

I'd raise hell over it, yes.

If someone claimed Vanilla Cop and specified only getting postitive results on VTs, I'd lynch them.

What's wrong with something like Townie Cop

Fits that role better than Vanilla Cop

What about vanilla cop and townie cop

Like, Mafia Goon comes up as Vanilla to a Rolecop, the only way for us to go your way is if we change Rolecop results to be "Goon" which is awful.

Vanilla Cop being VT/Goon finder and Townie Cop being VT finder makes most sense to me.

VT Cop is terribly inelegant. Townie cop is much more elegant.

If you can find an occupation that has to do with identifying normal people I'm all ears. We shouldn't aim to create weird names like miller. The only reason I don't suggest we change miller to delinquent is because miller is so engrained and more elegant.

I really do think we should change friendly neighbor, it's horribly confusing.

I never really got why people get confused by it. But maybe that's me showing my age, since I was around before Neighbors replaced unconfirmed masons, so I see neighbors as the usurper to the name and not friendly neighbor as the one needing to change.

In that case, change neighbors. I feel like on site atm, neighbors are more common than friendly neighbors.
