<div class="IPBDescription">Vote-kicking, because these idiots are ruining the game</div>So I'm playing a good public game and as we get to the next round this new guy wants to command on the marine team. This time I'm on alien so I don't know what's going on in marines, but obviously he's just rubbish and griefing so gets ejected. He then goes on to sit in the base and write to All wherever the marine players are.
So first of all, he's obviously ruining the experience not only for his own team, but for the aliens as well since all of us just want to play the game like it was intended. Second, <b>and more importantly</b>, an idiot is taking up a spot on the server where there could (should!) be a nice and friendly player instead. Everyone on the server agrees that we don't want him there, but of course we can do nothing but watch as he ruins the game on this server for as long as he wants to waste his time.
Vote-kicking would thus solve the problem with people who go AFK in RR for a long time, or who's just sitting around in there with massive ping which is not helping anyone. And morons like this guy.
Don't say that this system would get abused because there are so many ways to prevent that.

In 200 hours I've run into deliberate griefing on my team exactly once. However, the number of games I've played where everyone on the server was on an actual team and doing something for at least half the time they were actually on the server could probably also be counted on one hand.

So instead of this, we can have someone making a thread about how people are abusing vote kick to stack teams and kick rookies? Come on man. Find a server with a solid community and admins. it is not hard, especially when someone like me can find a "home" server.
