Hello Turk, & Turk,
Please note that map voting has been tried, tested, removed, tried, tested and removed a few times. Starting from before I left, to when Rus was here and then when I came back as well.
When it's on, it's complained about.
When it's off, it's complained about.
To try stop all that, a few attempts at making it easier came in:
Good evening BFV community, So I know this kinda goes against our "allmaps" policy, however I think it might be better for us to keep the more popular maps in rotation when it's less busy so as to keep players engaged. With this in mind, I propose trying out the scheduling option we have. Now...

In this thread, I tried to kill two birds with one stone by removing the less "popular" maps, and including map voting. With the server running on a schedule of fewer maps in the week and all maps on the weekend. You can see how that ended.
Weekday schedule every Monday @ 8am till Friday @ 8am. Map voting enabled. Maps featured, in the order they are listed below: Operation Hastings Reclaming Hue Siege of Khe Sahn Quang Tri Operation Game Warden Ho Chi Minh Trail Lang Vei Operation Flaming Dart Saigon 68 Operation Irving...

This thread basically sums up how it was going ultimately.
Greetings Battlefield Vietnam community! It has been brought up again in-game and on the forums...the timeless topic of map voting. The idea behind it initially was to give players a choice as to what maps they get to play. However, recently players have been exploiting a bug that allows near...

This thread debated removing map voting and using a time limit.
Hey everyone, In lieu of the cancelled return of the bots event (again, I'm sorry), I thought I'd poll a bit again even though we've done this quite a few times. The current settings that will run for this weekend (Friday evening 17th Sep - Monday morning 20th Sep) are; Map voting = disabled...

I honestly have given up on the map voting because whatever is done, there is always a group that is not happy about the change that gets made to suit the situation. Map voting is enabled on the Mission Possible server, it has all the maps on our near vanilla server just with Pip's own take on how maps should be played.
I've been blasted for polling and changing things with regard to map voting and I grew tired of it. Apparently it's been over discussed time and again so I ended all of it by leaving it off. I've kept the settings that "most" players are happy with and as a result there has been a giant decline in complaints of server settings.
This time, I say nothing further than this response on this topic.

Everyone may speak for themselves as I always encourage, if a change is wanted and it's not a major one we can try it.
