"The Vote Menu is one of the most powerful and abusable weapons in the entire game. The only way of killing friendly players, even bans them from the game for a very long respawn time, has the ability to change the very level of the game's being played on, in order to choose a map that suits your class and playstyle, as well as having the ability to steal players from the other team in the form of a team scramble. The Vote Menu can make huge swings in terms of team balance and even alter the playing field of the game itself. It's so powerful than many community servers choose to ban it for fear of players abusing this weapon." -Red Robot
