How much should mods help VCA?

This forum is for discussion related to the game.

Do you like it as town when the mod puts additional info in VCs?

I love it !

How much should mods help VCA?

This question kinda arises from the lack of standardized information required on a votecount, as far as i'm aware most people just put votes and a warning when someone approaches the execution requirement, but that's it, and i'd argue the warning is mostly a way to help with game integrity and avoid accidental hammers

but, and while it's more rare, a lot more things are done here and there, linking to the individual vote, tracking everyone's vote through the day, coloring confirmed alignements in one color or another

this is all great, and certainely a lot of help towards VCA, but my issue is mostly that all that strongly favors the town

in short, the question boils down to if the data scraping part of VCA is viewed as part of the expected work town is supposed to do or if the mod doing it still doesn't cross the expect line of neutrality one should keep when moderating

I'm curious what the "ideal mod" would look like, i myself don't really have any opinion

The official modding guidelines require the mod to post VCs, and my interpretation of this is that this information is meant to be as accessible to the players, and is not "optional" if that makes sense.
i do know that it can be used by scum, just that imo it's still a fairly townsided tool
