Hello all, When I play BF3, I almost always play your server, 24/7 TDM Canals. I love the quick spawn times, and fast pace of the game. What I could live without though, are all the assbags. Having to have 2 vote kicks going to get rid of 1 assbag is also a pain in the ass. It's very rare for me to long into your server and find a fair, legit match. Sad, because I do love playing here. Anyways, those are my thoughts.
Thanks for getting on the forums and posting. To answer your question: We previously did have the settings to where only 1 Person was needed to initiate the votekick. The problem with that is the very assbags that you want to kick would votekick people unwarranted. The main purpose of the votekick is for hackers. Not all assbags are hackers, they merely talk shit and annoy others. Needing 2 votes helps alleviate that unwarranted votekicking. Get on teamspeak and shoot the shit with us. It is more fun that way too. Cheers!
The reason is takes (2) to initiate a vote-kick is because we want to insure that votekicks are only started to remove blatant hackers. In our experience the average player base within BF3 can be a bunch of sheep. Players tend to vote '!Yes' on a vote-kick when they have no idea what they're vote-kicking. If we configured it to (1) individual being able to intiate a vote-kick, many innocent players would be unfairly vote-kicked. The (2) players needed to initiate a vote-kick actually forces players to read the basic instructions within the in-game chat and the only time the general player base does this, is when they're getting owned by a hacker. I wish there was a simpler and or better way of doing this but this is the best way to configure things in our experience.
