Looking back at my original post in this thread, I do not recall naming an admin/mod. To claim that I have done that is not accurate. The forums are here to have ADULT conversation about topics.
I had said to you in the shoutbox (when you replied to my post thus naming yourself) that there has been an ongoing occurrence of map pushing with poorly run votes and it was the "straw that broke my back" to paraphrase . My original post was made rashly, but I am entitled to speak my mind. The map changing/jumping is becoming a more common practice. I could have lead with that as the general statement, but the latest occurrence was what I was focused on.
I accepted your apology, but the topic still needed to be discussed and a clear rule put out for all to follow. My experience was map changing was frowned upon and if anyone wanted to play, we played. The maps are placed in rotation for a reason. There are clan members who invest their time in finding,making, and running maps and if that's how they want them to run, I'm playing them that way. (Mind you, there are some maps that are not suitable if not enough numbers and I can understand skipping if players agree ).
Being an admin/mod isn't always a cake walk, and you can't please all the people all the time. In your eagerness to be helpful, you missed my in game messages as you were focused elsewhere...it happens and you're only human. I've never had a problem with you Crimson, and I don't have a problem with you now. I have a problem with map changing in general and crappy voting methods in particular. I'm generally quite quiet in the forums over the past years, but I am entitled to speak up about issues.
Hopefully there can be a clear guideline for all to follow in regards to map changes and procedure.
