I haven't personally seen this, but I've heard rumors that the TF2 Kick Vote is kicking the incorrect user if the the user whom the vote is for has a certain client hack installed to change their username once the vote starts (by hooking the VoteStart usermessage maybe?)

Since the callvote command sends the userid rather than the username, I assume this is a bug in the vote processor when the vote completes. It's just a guess on my part, though.

You sure? It seems far more likely that users trying to select the cheater are selecting the wrong guy (i.e the guy whose name he is using) That is, after all, precisely why the buffoons are changing their name in this way.

I've not seen these one of these name changers for ages though, but since there's no need for anyone to change their name while connected to a server once, let alone every few seconds why bother having the functionality? They should just disable it. And / Or fix the UI for voting.
