No. I think RJS was right.
We could have persuaded you to work with us, because we could have killed you if you didn't.
RJS was absolutely wrong, and there's no debate about it. There's no way wolves can convince me of anything, because it would require them to make an overture.
And I'll tell you straight up, if I'm a vanillager, trying to sucker in the wolves into such an overture by pretending to be neutral definitely IS within my meta.
I always love to wolfhunt, even when I'm neutral. I would have made an effort just for fun.
