Look at this link; it literally states not to make this role.

It doesn't have to be exactly the same to be considered a "do not make this" role. The point is that both of them check for infected people and cure them of the plague. And don't use your success rate with the role to determine whether or not its overpowered; the first two users agree that the Plaguebearer does not need a hardcounter. So let me point out Pestilences weaknesses for you since you think it's so overpowered:
 * Plague Doctor - A role that can cure one person per night from the plague. This is underpowered, as the Plaguebearer's disease spreads through visiting and being visited and infecting the same person again is easy. Not the Same Thing They dont Cure one Person Per Night, Only same thing is the name.... Also i have more Wins then  and they have the Best Defence in the game + Rampages every night also Alerts Every night Its Really Overpowered

1. Despite it's only way of death is via lynching, this also happens to be it's greatest weakness, since players will be frantic to find you.

2. Mayors, Jesters and Mediums are your worst enemies. They are literally the only roles who can provide any sort of a threat against you, with The Mayor's vote count and the Medium's ability to scrounge information from the dead (especially jesters that didn't kill anyone) that can be used against you.

3. Being solo. Without the existences of Jesters, Executioner, Survivor, Guardian Angels and Amnesiac, winning is nearly (but not completely) impossible. They are your only hope for extra votes, and they may not side with you even then.

4. Jailors. Despite the fact that they can't kill you, simply having you in their will followed by "executing" is a surefire way to get you killed.

5. Becoming Plaguebearer is very hard. You are not invincible as PB. You can be killed by Jailors, Veterans, Werewolves, Medusas, outed by Vigilantes and other attackers with basic attack, controlled, investigated, and very few things will prevent these methods of death.
