Re: Worse than TKing...

I think you should only get one opportunity a map to make a vote against another player. If the vote fails then your vote initiating privileges for the map are restricted. I also find it amusing that Dice would make voting and then give players the ability to ignore it. I have my voting turned off and I am assuming by limited amount of time i have actually seen a vote succeed, that most other people do as well.

I like your idea of only giving someone one chance to have a kick vote. Also could be something that we could do without completely. If you don't like how others are playing the game, LEAVE!

Re: Worse than TKing...

The only time I have vote kicked is on a server that the admin didnt restrict the ping and jackasses where on there with pings over 300...Everyone is like why the lag my ping is fine blah blah...Im like duh if you would vote yes we wouldnt have it....Now im not talking ping spikes I am talking a constant over 300...

How can anyone even play with it like that.....I mean its not like there is a lack of servers and you playing on a server with your ping at 300+ is making everyone else near you have a ****ty time...it really chaps my ass

Actually a very good point that I didn't think of. I think in this case a vote makes sense because it is affecting everyone's game. Although if I get on a server and get lag I usually leave.

Re: Worse than TKing...

...is vote spamming.

Nothing makes me as hot under the collar as an idiot who doesn't get the clue the first time. Or a smacktard who is trying to screw things up for another player, or the whole server.

I have yet to see a map change or a player be removed from a server from a vote. In fact, only seldom have I seen a commander removed.

So give it a rest, gents.

Re: Worse than TKing...

Yeah some ass hat tried vote kicking me once...

I was commander and he TKed me with the bomber so I punished and he was like why did you punish and I was like cuz your a moron...and he’s like it was an accident...I’m like how I’m the big star on your HUD how the hell can you miss me...so He tried organizing a vote kick… unsuccessful so I vote kicked him... unsuccessful then someone else tries vote kicking me cuz this ass hat is making a huge phuqing deal out of it....So what did I do...

That's right initiated a vote kick on everyone that did it to me...needless to say none where success and probably caused us more distraction from the game then anything but I found it kind of humorous...

Yeah so now someone can put up that aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaw we really liked your story pic

(ps you know who you are)

Re: Worse than TKing...

I agree, stop the multiple kicks/mutiny votes. If you don't like a Commander you can always leave the game.

I also find aggravating when you are waiting for enough players to join a game, and people on the other team start hunting you. If you need to kill something while you are waiting kill your on teamates/friends.

Re: Worse than TKing...

I you don't like them just don't vote!

I see your point. I hate those spammers myself.

However, I do see kick votes succeed. My own! There is some psychological secret that most people don't get who end up spamming votes: I explain why the guy deserves to be kicked in a friendly way. Tell people in a friendly way (and decent spelling) that John Doe has been tank spawn camping for the last 20 minutes and people will kick him. In other words: A good, true, convincing REASON. First time success almost guaranteed.

I wish all the suckers (sorry, had to be said) who spam-vote like mad would realize I don't care unless I know what the guy did wrong. I usually ask - "why kick the guy?" Unless I get a very convincing reason I won't vote yes. Usually I get no answer, or answers like "he n00b"- which frankly has, as an answer, the value of a cat flap in an elephant house.

When I ask "why mutiny?", the standard answer, if any, is: "I wanna be commander". Its amazing - people call for a vote not because the commander does a bad job, but because they wanna play and don't like BF2's way of high rank over low rank. Thats another reason votes don't succeed - why would anyone kick a commander who does a good job?

Other realization: No point asking for a vote yourself with reasons like "he's a spawn camper". You need both sides to vote for you for success. Spawn camping is usually not perceived as that bad by most people on the same team as the spawn camper - he won't get kicked. For people who are tank camping however - hey, even the enemy realizes that some dude takes up a slot in their team who stands arround 90% of the time doing nothing and otherwise takes away everyone's fair share of vehicle.

Furthermore, I am bitter enough by now to yell "STOP SPAMMING If you couldn't get him kicked by now you will fail all the time" at people, and "don't mutiny unless you take his post". This doesn't help, but it relieves

If you know it won't be a success why do it then and anoy everyone else? Frankly you appear to be more part of the problem than part of the solution with this. He shouldn't have tried to get you kicked, and vice versa. Get over it.

Plus, even if you had a big blue commander star on you, I also firmly think you shouldn't punish people for first-time TKs - especially from jets. Usually people who are not griefers have reasons to do things. E.g. there could be an enemy moving to your position he tried to bomb. Accidents happen.

Punishment ruins someone's score for the round. That should be reserved for TKs on purpose.

Re: Worse than TKing...

The first time I saw someone voted off I was playing Oman with my son (hes 20). He was commander. The guy that voted him off then took his place. So I informed him that was wrong. My son rejoined the server the next round and he was put on the other team, I joined him and we gave that kick vote jerk hell. So I really think the best thing to do is switch teams and just go after the kick vote jerk as hard as you can they will leave. Thats the best revenge I know of....Red

Re: Worse than TKing...
