RTV allows players to end the game if they are frustrated.
Everyone in the server is a valid player. If they are frustrated, then they are within their right to leave as long as it isn't a ragequit. However, if they leave, then the server loses players. If this happens, then you'll never play a game with 8 players or more ever again.
So RTV is a great alternative to this. RTV means that players can continue playing on the server but skip some matches when highly frustrated. As long as they are not merely trolling, and are actually frustrated, I see no issue with this personally. Every player has a right to a frustration-free experience on the server.
I RTV often when frustrated. I see no issue with it whatsoever.
It is after all only passed if 3 quarters of all players on the server rtv. If that many people rtv, then the last quarter frankly should deal with it. You lose nothing except a killstreak and those who rtv gain a more positive experience on the server.
So I personally don't think anything should be done with rtv. It's fine as it is in my opinion. I think it's a brilliant option that avoids a lot of negativity from a whole load of players. When I admined a server for my old clan, I always allowed players to vote for maps. It's a good idea and means that most of the players can get a positive experience. Those few that disagree with the opinion of the majority are unfortunately the minority. They are still valid players but they aren't as much of the playercount. And in this situation, they lose almost nothing.

I agree generally but this I take issue with. It's not as bad as RQing but it is in the same vein - everyone has to play as a zombie - without zombies being a human isn't fun. If you rtv purely out of rage then you're trying to avoid playing as a zombie which can be frustrating for humans. Which I think is what Althor's getting at.

Rtved again today, rat race, lms, 3 zombies. stayed in red base area, (the most open area with as many entrances for zombies possible on that map) they kept spawning all over me, there are no excuses, they rtved because i was 60-0 non camp with all weapons. from kill 18 up i have it recorded. they had every opportunity to get at me, i was pwnin pure and simple. will post link to clip if it ever uploads
This is a quote from the other thread made complaining about rtv. I highlighted the important parts of this. As you can see with 3 zombies, you having overpowered weapons, zombies having reduced health and not having the ability to get powerups its a wonder they even bothered to rtv and didn't just quit.
Stop whining/complaining about zombies not liking to have to repeatedly die so you can go 60-0 while camping red base.
