Title: Map switching
Post by: Snake Doctor on March 08, 2015, 10:20:31 PM

A few of us tonight (3/8/15 10pm pacific time) were playing one of the new maps, we just got to the second stage of the map. Some didnt know it but its a good map and a few liked it. No vote came up on the screen to vote for another map. Can we please put up a vote before an admin changes it to another map?

And again tonight. A few complaints besides my own, wondering why we switched maps from the 3 stage of thunder mountain for the old and overused map of goldrush. I think my donating days are over.

Hey Snake Doctor,

I've replied to your PM, so please make sure to check your inbox.
In short, it was likely a Rock the Vote triggered by players, as no admin present during that game used the force change map command (nothing in the logs, and I talked to the admin).

Admins do not force change map (especially during a full server) without first asking players. Or sometimes because there are plugins/map/server issues that require a map change to refresh, but usually I'm the one that do it and I announce it via console.
