Post Autobalance annoyance
I am not against autobalancing at all however I've started to notice that some clans/groups (and i'm not talking about H H guys or regs) deliberately switch to stay on the same team.

It means that you have even more chance of being auto switched than normal and I have a paranoid feeling some of my switches have been down to other people playing silly beggars with the teams.

Thoughts and comments on a postcard.

Sometimes you'll get autoswitched and put your old team 2 men down. I never did understand those. If you can switch right back to even the teams again that's fine.

If I get autoswitched and I've been playing on a good team for a while, you're damn right I'll want to get back in with them. Ever heard of loyalty? The people switching to be with their friends or stack their clan, you can't really blame them either.

What I don't like are people that go spec to force a switch to the winning team. That's just twatty.

I just came from the server where @H|H people totally stacked up one side while the rest of us get bounced around to accomodate them hanging in spectator until they could get on the team they want.

It reminds me a bit of the people who, when driving, shoot down the other lane and try and cut in front, not a crime but not really nice.

Just my 2p, wondered if anyone felt the same way.

I think teaming / stacking will become more inevitable as the community grows tbh. THere are now 200+ regs on here, many of whom know each other through the game and enjoy teaming up. I'm not really a fan of unfair team stacking (but it's funny from time to time!), and when you know you're going to get laughs with your mates on voice, versus silence or juvenile crap from the other team, I know where I'd want to be.

Still, I think it's the right thing to do that if the teams are so obviously stacked, that some regs agree to balance things up, otherwise we lose players who may themselves want to become regs but leave in disgust...

Must say I really hate it when people jump into spec mode and wait til they can get back.

Sometimes I wish they could be kicked for doing it - then I think how evil and mean it would be... and then get over that moment of madness and wish they get kicked again

I've seen people switch to the winning team all the time.
Though it isnt against the rules I think it's against he spirit of the servers and also shows a lack of spine.

I like to play with my friends, but if I see the teams are stacked I always try and switch team.

If only there was some kind of team scrambler in the admin options.

Now that sort of behaviour is definitely out of order and not in the spirit of HH.

Oh yeah, really hate it when a certain player, wont say who but we all know him, switches to the defending team so he can go engie - every round...

That is really annoying...
