Been playing on the servers for some time now but have noticed since I started playing again last week that it is not uncommon to see the regular players getting really bored and grouping up and go from goofing off to griefing. It always comes down to them complaining that a map sucks so there is no point to trying. Starts with minor things like all going heavies or engies and building 10 or so sentries in some random room. But then it escalates to ubering enemy spies, spy teleports and basic griefing. Its the group of regular players who sort of take over the server and you cant votekick them because they will not vote for each other.
Here are two regular players just holding onto the intel and refusing to cap it on doublecross. Not to time the kritz or anything but just so they can pass the intel back and forth and trigger the announcement sounds.

I really dont care about bans or what not but would like to see these sort of things from not happening. The server plays very nicely and usually has some very decent people playing on it. Its more and more common to see this sort of thing and frankly I do not get it. If people do not like a map they can go play a different server or if they are just bored of tf2 they can just take a break or something.
