Well now, and I have been sending a couple of bug reports, I have one patrol without a single battle and then the next I had eight with many back to back.
Hmm, maybe it was trying to make up for before?
Of any case, maybe it is more random then before.

Sometimes Players request features that require coding beyond what the core game caters for. Petitions is a way to see if there is serious support for it.
An explanation: ROK II: Helpful Tips
An example can be found here: Ruler of Kings II - The Temple of Solace
Though it may take a few paychecks I am willing to donate what I can so the coding needed to allow players with characters who have bad auras enter The Temple of Solace or otherwise have access to Assignments or parts of the game not available because of having a bad aura. I very much would do so, not only because if it being inaccessible to Jonathon, but it could allow for some interesting journal entries and development.
The page looks the same for me, but I suspect those which can enter will see what you speak of. I may even try throwing in another $40 or $50 donation now if I could for such, though I will need to consider a few things.

Why shouldn't it be? Particularly if it means one's character is called wicked without having really done anything to warrant being called such, to have a "Bad aura" causing some to keep him from moving forward.
He may be a charmer willing to manipulate or deceive if need, he may have ambition and a wish to rise to a position of influence, yet Jonathon is far from being tainted by wickedness… except, yet the game says he is.
He doesn't kick puppies, swindle or cheat others, nor has he treated any in the Town or Llafair badly. More, I could see him at least wanting to pay his respects in the Temple, he wouldn't be there to cause trouble or disrupt anything. Jonathon does not wish ill on any except perhaps those who wish ill on him.
Yet because of a "Bad aura" he is judged negatively, even if there might be reasons to have such an aura or there may well be benefits to such. He is barred from certain Assignments and from entering a place of worship and contemplation with the consideration he would disrupt the atmosphere of the place.

Well I admit, I picked what seemed right without being certain how it would all come together.
That and I have learned what I wanted from Town Thieves Guild, Pick Locks and Locate / Disable Traps. I have even avoided taking any assignments there. If I had to give up access to the place I would.
Even then, surely you know that even one who had consorted with thieves can change their path… my only hope is that a change of aura would not bar me from the Town Brothel. He still has much to learn there and is thankful to Madame Scarlett for what she has taught him, the time he has spent with those there.
My character has a certain fondness for the place and had learned much those there that is useful for his concept… admittedly because of missing an important detail it did leave Jonathon having an unfortunate experience he will try to pretend didn't happen and deny if asked.
