It's abused a lot to voteslay Hale just because someone can't wait 2 minutes for the round to end. Could also be removed from Death Run if it's on there, but I don't know if it is.

Solution: reduce Hale's time-to-spectator. Allow Hale to be AFK for a lot less time so the problem that voteslay was introduced to fix will sort itself out.

What a coincidence, I was just talking to someone about how annoying it is that everyone can use the vote-menu.

It's often used on saxton hale for being a noob, being slow, or when hale can't find an afk player. They are very impatient for waiting because they died and want to end the round sooner by starting to slay hale.

What about friendly Saxton Hales? A time-to-spectator reduction only works so far.
 
I've been going on Saxton Hale a lot the past few days and I haven't seen one voteslay started for a valid reason, including friendly Hale.

Wouldn't friendly Hale just be easier to kill any get to the next one anyway?

No because a friendly hale is someone who isn't killing his friend/friends and they are stoling it too untill a vote is started. (or how you write the word ^.^ )

I'm often on vsh EU so regulars there know not to mess with the menu when I'm around because I report them in then. But it's slightly annoying since the people are not even reading the chat so when needed or not they just press a button they like.

I swear they only do it because you're a female.

Not sure what you mean with that but stay on topic. This being serious! Haha ^.^

If they were mature enough, the players, and think before acting. Then I would understand a vote-menu available to use. But most do not, so.....

No, she does contact Lano or HIMYM or me whenever someone breaks the rules and they know it.

And Tomat, I don't think you spend much time on Saxton Hale, so I don't think you can see for yourself that pretty much every voteslay is because someone doesn't want to wait 2 minutes for the round to end so they can play.

While it's true that I don't frequent anymore, I used to frequent a lot before and it's not like I'm unaware of the problem, I've actually advocated the removal of voteslay before, but replacing it with an AFK timer won't fix the problem because there are still loads of friendlies about who just try to stall the game for the sake of trolling and no AFK timer will fix that. I +1 this suggestion but there needs to be more to somehow prevent friendlies.
 
+1.

It's used a lot for griefing or to use on Hale's that cap the points, so if it was removed we'd have to deal with a lot less reports from the VSH servers.
