I am wondering if this is happened to anyone else and if they feel the same way as i do about it?
I was playing pyro the other day and i noticed that on the other team there were 2 individuals who normally play spy and are very good at it. I am watching the kill notifications and i notice as i suspected the those 2 people were playing spy and tearing my team up. I decided to be a defensive pyro and just run around behind folks and sweep the engineers' gear to keep the spys in check. I wound up dominating both spys to the point that they switched classes. Some time later i am still a pyro and the folks i dominated as spys got revenge as soldiers. That is seriously weak. I think if you are dominated as a class then you should have to get revenge as that class or the domination holds. I have had the same situation as a sniper also, and have spys come out of the woodwork to get revenge.
How about anyone else?

Happens when I play sniper all the time. People I dominate will switch to spy and stab me and then go back to sniper.

I think its hilarious to dominate someone so bad that they HAVE to go out of their way to get revenge by switching classes. It only further disrupts what teamwork they may have had on the opposing team.

Happend to Wieks recently too. Jwstohr got team switched, went spy and kept backstabbing poor Wieks leading to ultra-violence. Interestingly, Jwstohr got switched back and the two of them became good friends once again.

I do it sometimes, but that's because I suffer from nerd rage.

That's not a bug, it's a feature. This is one of the elements of game design Valve does so well (imhuo). If a dominated player changes class to get revenge, that player has either switched to a class that they can play more effectively for the time being,
or they have switched to a class only for the purpose of getting revenge and possibly taken away from their team's balance or effectiveness in the process.
Of course, it doesn't always play out this way, but the whole point is to mix up the gameplay so players can't just find their little corner of the map to dominate for the whole round.
