Maybe a lot of people like a map that a lot of other people don't like. When the people that don't like it leave, the people who do like it lose interest because there are less players on the server.

I usually end up switching weapons or something before I realize the vote is there, so I choose some random map. Other times, I'm too busy to care so I just hit 1. Maybe other people do this, too. Think

lately ive found that charlie doesnt clear out the server that bad. ive had some really fun games that were packed.

i think the people that vote for maps that clear the server honestly dont know that will happen. they are either casual players who dont frequent one or a few servers, or they dont pay attention. either way, its not really their fault. some people just arent as hardcore into gaming as us, hence they dont notice things like that.

They're obviously not thinking it would clear out the server. People who have favorites think that if other people just gave it a try they'd like it too.

And some just vote an unpopular map on purpose because they're leaving anyway. Wish I had taken a screenshot of someone saying that they do all the time lol Don't even remember who it was.

well, i've seen this happen a few times... hmm... i dunno. i kind of like some of the "hated" maps though, like charlie, and, i'll admit it, forest. one of my most enjoyable activities to partake in is sniping axis heads as they run through the trenches in forest. on the other hand, i kind of hate caen. I LOVE flugplatz, and i've seen quite a few people complain when it comes up. and jagd isnt exactly one of my favourites. zalec almost always sucks. there's a certain set of maps that pretty much anyone can agree on, but hey, thats why they're on rotation at server 5.

I used to play server 4 a lot of the time before server 1 went to source, just cuz the other maps would come up. even playing some maps i may not enjoy too much can be fun sometimes... nice for a challenge

speaking of those "other" maps... and this is gonna catch some slack... but... whatever happened to escape??? good ol nebelwurfers... theres another map that you either love or hate. I oscillated between the two quite frequently i think. haha. kinda annoying with the constant shelling, but either way, i don't think it was any worse than zalec or caen can be. im just rambling now, albeit on-topic... im still feeling the effects of last night i think. haha

It was mentioned in another thread that escape would sometimes crash the server so they dropped it.

Personally....i don't think forest & switch should be options, because you can never fill them with people that like them.

Listen to the words of inno young jedis
