At least I'm against kick vote, because it might get (ab)used in this way, that a certain player gets kicked out, because he is to good or because he always uses M79, when someone is legally raping main on last flag, stealing a huey, and so on. . .
So kick vote wouldnt be an option for me to bring in into a server.

IMHO map vote didn't work with 60% cap so was mostly spamming my screen. 'No' is, as mentioned, safer too...

OK, so now some have come along and screwed up the voting! I guarantee it that certain, and they shall remain nameless, players have recruited voters to take out my idea! I'm going shopping for voters who support my position on this.

We need player kick voting. For those who think this a bad idea, how many times have you complained in-game about being shot in the foot by a LAW or RPG or an M79? Want to put a stop to it? KUH-BOOM - vote kick! CYA!

People vote how they wish, there is no reason for them not to. If someone has asked someone else to vote, that's their choice, but that person can still vote how they wish.

And this is the very reason that, no matter how many votes there are, I will never implement it. We have rules, and actions that should be taken if they are broken. Someone using a weapon you dislike, or playing in a manner you are not happy with, is not a reason to kick anyone. We're the last server with a proper population of players, do you really want to start driving off what's left because people don't play how you like? Because that's exactly what will happen when you kick people because you dislike them or the way they play.

Sure, there's a percentage chance and you'd need a majority, but when few people are on or there are enough working together, that will be easy enough to get. But if not, then we are in the same situation as the map vote; vote after vote on the side of your screen as everyone tries to remove a player they dislike.

You may vote how you like, and continue to, but vote kick is never being implemented and chances are map vote will also not be making the same return as we had it before.

SK obviously did not see this post.

Except your vote doesn't show that at all, more people are against it than for it... Also, what people want and what is best can vary greatly. As far as I'm concerned, vote kick and a continuous vote map are not for the best.

Hate to say it Pinky, you know I'm your biggest fan, and while I don't like the kick vote, I DO LIKE the map vote. But the majority is clear here. Even with no change, this is still the best (and only) place to play. And it lasted the test of time for a reason. Maybe that is partially down to the fact that we can't flip through maps or players at will. Who knows such things....

I really only want the map vote. We had a bunch of players this am. As soon as it went to the jungle map, numbers dropped.

It is unfortunate that there is not a way to set it so that it must be 20 minutes between starting map votes. It's really not that big of a distraction to me when it takes place.
