Sourtap

Unless I am mistaken, removing a map from someone elses rotation isnt done unless there is something actually wrong with it. Meaning buggy or glitchy. Not because some other players dont like it and make a fuss until they get appeased. Peace in our time. Rejoice.
The answer has always been that if you dont like it, make your own rotation and submit it. But perhaps times have changed and "dont like it, dont play it" has today become "dont like it, ensure nobody can play it".
Perhaps every potential rotation should first be posted in an open forum thread. Then debate and take a vote whether or not to add it, or alter it. Then there will be no need to hold in-game skip votes and it can be shut off, so to speak.  That should be fun.😛

This appeal and its replies are in a public forum and can be seen by all.

What server were you banned from?: Cod 4 Freezetag When did you get banned?: 26th of february What was your in-game name?: Sourtap What is your game GUID (if known): No clue Why do you think you were banned?: Probably because of the voting system questions, saying an admin doesn't listen to the community. Might be some frustrations of an admin built up over the years....who knows!

A loooooooot of people in the servers would love to see me get banned because of my gameplay and/or my talking in game. They might have a chance to celebrate now, but before I hand over the champagne bottles for them to pop, I would love to know why I got permanently banned?
Is it because I asked questions about the adminning concerning the vote system? Is it because I called out @iBrock for pretending to be afk just so he didnt have to cast a vote? Or is it an admin who had a itsy bitsy too much sunday sips of the good ole alcohol and could not hold his/her grudge towards me any longer?
Or is it something else? Please do tell me, I would love to hear it. 
And for the people who have been waiting for my ban, cheers

So today we were playing one of the worst maps ever, random spawns, bad rendering etc. etc. There were 19 players playing whilst the complaining started so we asked for a vote. @iBrock completely ignored all of us, we called our own vote (9 voted to skip, 0 to not skip) and eventually left the server after we spent minutes trying to get his attention and he kept on playing, so he was not afk. Great adminning 👍!  Then @PnBear came in and called a vote. Yes or No to skip. 8 votes for yes, 0 for not to skip, with the same amount of active players and around 8 people in spectator. 
So what are the requirements for a vote to be passed or not? I personally think the rule of 'being in a team to be able to vote' is pure horsecrap, since someone dislikes the map so bad, they go to spectator. If there are numerous of YES votes and 0 NO votes, and the map still does not get skipped, then why even ask the 'yes or no' question? We all know there are a bunch of players who don't use their mics and/or don't type in game (frequently).
Call me stupid but if I play a match and I score 9 goals, whilst the opponent scores 0, I think I have won, as it should be with the voting thingy. In the end, a bunch of players stayed spectating while a decent amount left the server cause we all (except the 0 no votes) wanted to change map but the vote got ignored the first time, and denied the second time. "GREAT" way to handle that.

Because if I am on a team I can vote right? Or does it have to be a x amount of time that I am on the team? Nothing has been said about that.
All I am asking about is what makes a vote a vote. Admins ask for a yes or no. We get 9 yes to skip a map and 0 no to skip a map, in a 18/19 playerbase map with about 8 frustrated spectators. Yet, the map does not get skipped. 
@Totty Please do not talk to me like I am a new kiddo. I've been here for multiple years, and you just came in a few months ago. I know more about this clan and servers than you.
 
@PnBear I played the entire round before it, asked for the vote. I voted in spec, indeed. Had to be in a team, so I joined a team and voted. So why does that not count then? Please elaborate. Sounds like XI got their rules mixed up. I did exactly what your fellow admin/mod @Totty said to do, which was to join a team and cast my vote.
 
Also it is kind of suiting how the 'admin/mod' people are reacting to a sincere question about how things work in these servers. Love it  
 
Edit: @iBrock Not afk enough this time to give me the finger huh?

Did she love camping too??

!FU Sourtap lol You starting trouble again? Bad @Sourtap very bad. 
 
I think the point is that you actually have to be on a team and playing for your vote to count?
There needs to be a majority vote of the players Playing on the server. If there are 30 people on the server and 15 vote yes then the vote fails. Need 16 or more Yes votes for a Majority Vote.
Some of the problem is that Alot of people playing do not even vote.
 
If ya don't like a certain map please feel free to ask an admin to cast a vote. If the vote fails (Like it often does because People do not vote) and you don't want to play that particular map? just leave the server for a few minutes. Go watch a couple Youtube videos or Porn or do something constructive for a few minutes until the next map starts.  
 

Did you missbehave again Pia? Oh my oh my.......

Spectators are NOT allowed to vote and players are NOT allowed to call their own votes  unless the admin starts the vote  if the admin is not present then you can fend for yourself and go to spec to force the change  but not if a admin is present
Its very simple to vote
Player asks for a Vote (Please do not abuse this just cause you want to play the next map)
Votes only Allowed in First round (Do not ask for a Vote in the other rounds)
Admin calls vote
Players can now Vote YES once (Spectators NOT Allowed to Vote) (if player keeps putting Yes in chat it will not count cause your causing problems with the vote)
Once Admin gets the count the Admin will let you know if the Vote Failed or Passed (If it Fails dont complain just enjoy the map or comeback when map is over)
 

So sourtap (stupid) you was in spec in the game, jumped on a team to vote then jumped right back off.
your vote did not count for crap. spectator votes do not count.

Awesome place, spent a few months there 3.5 years ago. Amazing island! Enjoy your stay and....better not mention my name there

What a shit rotation yet again!!!!! Oh wait.....

Good evening or whatever time of day you are reading this if anyone does read this at all. I have been quiet with much silence lately because I am going through a strong time of mental and spiritual warfare. I have strong Christian morals and values that I am working on and trying to figure them out as well as my spot in this crazy world. I don't like pressing my views and beliefs on others as I feel that is not right. There are topics of jokes and conversations that i hear all the time when gaming online in voice with people that make me uncomfortable and it's not just on this server. Due to some of the stuff i am going through, sexual jokes/chats really get to me and bother me and i know i am guilty of taking part in it at times which i am sorry for because i am not representing my faith properly and being who i want to be as a man of God. I have been debating on stepping away from these types of servers so i can focus on myself more. I don't know if i really fit in anywhere with these servers at all. Sorry if i sound like a "snowflake" or "Bible thumper" as i dont mean to. I know many of you have asked what is going on with my silence and this is the best and only way i can communicate it.

Rob needs to take you under his wing young snowflake, these columns are filled with strange people, I could tell you some tales. Trust Rob to guide you through the righteous path towards the light, rates are very reasonable, why don't you read the forum rules before committing yourself, perhaps it's not for you?
Rob
Chief Snowflake
 
ps if you want to pass on the sexual jokes you have heard Rob will make sure they are up to our high standards

@RobMc yah bloody snowflake, just fuck off will yah? 🙂 🙂 
stop trying to give room to the snowflakes and hopefully they will stop for once.
oh and btw rob.... was it a thai ladyboy or a normal one?
and just incase i forgot... !fu
love yah buddy!
