These are some of the declined suggestions (with vote scores) not by me on pages 1 and 2 of this section, including their respective vote scores, gathered as argument for this suggestion.

https://www.skial.com/threads/re-add-dr_nighttown-to-the-deathrun-map-rotation.90554/

+7, -0. The 8th +1 won't count, as it was after a post commenting on the 'Declined' status. No explanation given.

https://www.skial.com/threads/remove-vsh_cinema-from-the-vsh-map-rotation.89694/

+32, -0, though Bottiger did provide an explanation

https://www.skial.com/threads/vsh-increase-nomination-cooldown-for-maps.87293/

+44, -0 (excluding my +1). Somewhat of an explanation given by Bottiger?

https://www.skial.com/threads/dr-add-dr_lasagna.90629/

+5, -0. No explanation given.

https://www.skial.com/threads/vsh-ff2-allow-multiple-nominations-on-maps.90546/

+6, -0. Somewhat of an explanation given by Bottiger?

https://www.skial.com/threads/dr-add-dr_kanye.90572/
+7, -0. No explanations given.

https://www.skial.com/threads/the-rules.90312

+0, -1. Explanations given.

https://www.skial.com/threads/vsh-re-add-oilrig.90623/

+10, -2. No explanation given.

https://www.skial.com/threads/vsh-2-double-boss-rounds.90354/

+0, -2. No explicit explanation given...not that this one really needed that.

https://www.skial.com/threads/la-server-for-vsh.90517/

+7, -0. No explanation given.

https://www.skial.com/threads/add-dr-fall-guys-to-deathrun.90491/

+4, -0. The 5th +1 won't count, as it was after a post commenting on the 'Declined' status. No explanation given.

Some of these show that some suggestions, in spite of there being more +1 than -1 votes, if any of the latter were posted, were declined with little to no explanation.

This seriously devalues what the community wants, via the forum members' votes for these suggestions.

Hence my suggestion for a revising of this idea of voting with +1/-1.

If a future suggestion has a score of at least +15 (after taking -1 votes into account) after a certain amount of time after posting, it needs to be implemented by admins without question.

If the score of +15 is not met, admins are free to decide whether or not to implement.

However, in those situations, the following needs to apply:
If the votes are unanimously +1 and it gets declined anyway, a detailed explanation needs to be given.

If there are both +1 and -1 votes, admins need to think it over based on the stated arguments, regardless of which has the majority.

If a suggestion is unanimously -1, no explanation is necessary for declining.

This suggestion has been closed. Votes are no longer accepted.
You just don't like that Bottiger and Bottiger only has the final say what goes on his own servers
That's true, I suppose. I guess declining just feels arbitrary after, as I stated before, unanimous community approval in the aforementioned examples.

But it's not unanimous is it? The largest majority of supporters on a thread you linked to that was declined without a given reason was 8 people.
8 people is hardly representative of a population of hundreds maybe thousands of players.

Fair, I suppose.

I don't have time to give a reasoning to every thread. It was most likely requested before already or it is a map that is unpopular.
