Sometimes claiming might not be ideal. If you're a PR, you'll most likely be nightkilled/roleblocked (if there's one) next night. If you're a VT, you'll help scum narrow down the list of PRs.
There are some situations where you should claim:
When you're at L-1
and someone declares intent.
When you got an incriminating result (or you feel you got).
When you feel there's no reason to not claim anymore.
When town agrees on a massclaim.
I disagree. I think there are times in which one should claim when they are at L2/1 even before someone declares intent. I'll expand on that later.

Thinkbig if you're actually town and just happened to check the thread via phone 10 minutes after I voted and overreacted based on an l-2 because you were on mobile and couldn't read and claimed because you didnt have time to respond because you weren't home yet and you also have your own personal theory that people should claim at l-2 without intent I've never heard about, I think I hate both you and my luck.
(lack of quotes sometimes makes it unclear what people are talking about but i'm a chronic shitposter/hyperposter at times so i'm kind of a hypocrite here)

In my games, I tend to overreact to pressure and votes. Especially when I am at L-2 with 14 days left in the DP.

Gamma Emerald thought I was an alt of his because I compared myself to a statue of Vladimir Lenin
but other than that no

i mean if you agree with our points that's fine but usually being a bit more open about that thought process helps your vote not look opportunistic
definitely on-board with not L-1ing people without reason though
Noted giga, and thanks for the tip
@TB, you've played scum before right? Like alone (not in a hydra, there was that game with Kain Tepes but hydras are poop for meta)? i forgot tbh
you can't prove or disprove anything in a mafia game really gayreen
there's nothing wrong with having your own reads even if they go against the grain you know.... like it's fine you agree with our points but i feel like you're being a little too sheepy
like normally i'd be scumreading you for that but A: I kind of know your play as scum and it doesn't feel like it here, and B: your pointing out the soft was just really derptown

{assert against the grain that there can be reasons to claim at l-2} rubs me the wrong way
