ugh this just drove me up the wall tonight

So my friend Magnaflux gifted me a mann up ticket to use. I had it sitting in my steam inventory for like two months and hadn't used it, until today. I went and joined the map tiers with the tour represented by the stone statue of archimedes, and everything was going great and I spawned on Rottenburg to join a team as we all started a new map. As everyone knows, the best way to win Rottenburg is have everyone be an engineer (+ 1 scout for money collecting to allow engineers to do their upgrades), so I was naturally doing what I always do on Rottenburg, being an engineer. I set my stuff up after getting all the upgrades I could afford to get with $700, and then one of my teammates asked me to be a medic. I told him "no, it'd be more helpful if you guys were all engineers". So we got the round started and were doing quite well, I was getting lots of kills with my sentry while a guy named "General Douchebag" played a soldier, and some other guy was a heavy and another guy was a sniper, and another a spy, plus another engineer who wasn't doing a very good job and put his sentry in a bad spot.
We were steadily losing ground because the heavy, scout and soldier weren't putting out enough firepower and getting their butts kicked(as we could've easily gotten twice as much damage through some additional series of sentry guns), so we had to restart the round after a little bit.
Suddenly, as soon as the round restarted, "General Douchebag" started a vote to kick me from the server. I was completely dumbfounded, as my sentries were the reason we'd survived last round as long as we did, so I asked them why they were kicking me, but before I could ask, the vote finished, and I got kicked from the server.
Seriously, do not play Mann Up. The guys on there are selfish D-bags who only care about winning, and can't remember that it's JUST A GAME. Those morons would've been far better off with me than without me (as I was playing the most vital class, the Engineer).
Moral of the story: People who take video games too seriously are shallow morons.
