This thing is very simple Koshi. People who do not play within the game's rules do not belong into the said game. It doesn't even matter if we are talking about voting, behavior, not sending in an action, or whatever. Your options are either replace the said player, modkill them, or let it slide.
Not modkilling them because "it will hurt one team" is not a valid argument, because replacing them or letting it slide STILL hurts one team more than the other. And modkilling them is the right answer because people who do not play within the game's rules do not belong into the said game.
I agree with giving a ban to everyone who fails to vote. I agree with giving a ban to everyone who fails to follow the rules.

Solved the problem. I agree with this. I was stricter than that before but this is the way to go I think. Miss 1 vote => get warned, miss 2 votes => get modkilled. After the game, 1 game ban if missed 1 vote during the game EXCEPT if sudden circumstances forced the player to miss that vote and the host has been warned about them. Doing like that means game cannot be ruined by 1 unfortunate modkill, but there is a punishment even if there is no modkill.

So yes, I think it is fair. Maybe the "retards" who do it in the first place wil leither change their behavior for getting blamed for ruining the game or stop joining the games to ruin them.

Because I feel the same, or better said felt the same. But because people tend to break the rules 24/7 I just prefer to go with the more lenient rule set of never banning for not voting. Simply because rules or no rules, people forget to vote. I would just prefer them to be the inactive bastards that they are and cancer up the game, than them to be ticking timebombs and ruin/end games.
In an ideal world all players would be Koshi's. Active, funny, brilliant, intelligent and never missing a vote.

The people who forget to vote or "forget to vote" (=don't give any shits about the game to play in) tend to come from same sort of "pool" of the players. People who are generally inactive and/or, as said, don't care about the games they play in.
For those people, why is it so fucking hard to do the following: Every single dayphase, when you make your first post, when you don't know who you vote -- place your vote on yourself, or no-lynch. When you find a better target, then change your vote. In that way you can never ever possibly end up in "not voting" list. If you fail to post even once in a 48h day window you have broken another rule, activity one, aswell.
There should NEVER be anyone who doesn't place down a vote in a mafia game because the MAIN point of the game (aside roles) is to kill mafia by placing a vote on who you think is mafia, or pretend you are doing that. Whenever someone does not vote, they are literally playing against their win condition if they are town.

Throwing in my input as a host that has run both the stricter and more lenient versions for voting -
My personal preference is to modkill on the first infraction. But Koshi and several others have complained about this rule and tracking my own games I am averaging one modkill for failure to vote, I am curious to hear from Blazinghand or other mods who modkill on the first go.
After community input and as I don't want modkills to ruin games, I've gone with two and then modkill.

This isn't entirely relevant to the discussion, but I was curious. Apparently flamewheel is a savage and LSB is a pushover. Also if the trends hold true, Kurumi is a sure bet for the next banlist moderator.
Most Bloodthirsty Hosts flamewheel 34 modkills Blazinghand 26 modkills Kurumi 23 modkills DoctorHelvetica 22 modkills GMarshal 18 modkills
Most Bloodthirsty Hosts Average (Min 5) flamewheel 4.2500 modkills per game Kurumi 3.8333 modkills per game DoctorHelvetica 2.4444 modkills per game Incognito 1.8750 modkills per game GreYMisT 1.2308 modkills per game
Most Lenient Hosts Average (Min 5) LSB 0.1429 modkills per game wherebugsgo 0.2857 modkills per game Palmar 0.3333 modkills per game kitaman27 0.4375 modkills per game deconduo 0.5000 modkills per game

Given feedback, here's my proposition. Failure to vote once: Warning ingame, banlist warning that lasts at least 5 games. If player is already warned, 1-game ban. Failure to vote twice: Modkill and 1-game ban. 2-game ban in case the player was already warned.

8 games and 34 modkills? Impressive.

I'm more for a 1 game ban even for 1 missed vote with no special circumstances but otherwise that seems pretty good.

So I can't be sheeping him. Koshis approach is too soft - gotta modkill those serial nonvoters.

There can be excusable circumstances and this is a catch-all way of doing it without getting anal and subjective.
