I'd like TeamKills and TeamSwitch: Off. We should try to play straight once in a while. Just hate to see those stackers flooding the arenas again! If you're good , you don't need to stack.

Remember, team balance is ON. If the team are equal (or within one player of eacher other) it won't allow you to team switch. If you turn team switch OFF, it's easy to get a 10v6 game and have no way to even it out.

I can live with friendly fire off.

Weak argument! New players will fill up the gap when they enter the game. It's better than Switchers playing both sides of the game.

Team switch should be on.

What if one side ends up with all the pilots? This happens too many times..

I know palyers like Fitch and Soco will switch to even it out, otherwise you will end up with loopsided games.

I rather trust the impersonal decision of randomness over anyone's goodwill ! Practical experience of many baserapes taught me this hard truth. Lopsided games will happen no matter what (life isn't fair) but at least not out of malice.

Team balence will keep people from switching if the game is even. Baserapes can happen either way.

Let's say you are on the red team with a bunch of noobs. I am on the blue team with a bunch of vets. My team will baserape your team, and your teammates will leave. If any one shows up, they will go to your team. However, as soon as they notice it's 2vs8, they'll be gone. If team switch if OFF, I'm going to baserape you and finish the game 13-2 with 250 points. If team switch is ON, I'll come over to your team to help you out. I'm sure Menso, SoCo, and Fitch would do the same. (Well, maybe not Fitch)

We don't need anyone switching over to rescue a team in defeat (a game got to have a winner , and the hard fought winners deserved the 50pt bonus) . Playing gods because you're good , only makes you a jackass to your former teammates - What gives you the right to betray your original team and take away their victory?

Because unlike actual war, this game is about FUN. It certainly isn't fun when you are being baseraped, and baseraping isn't really fun either.

It's not Fun for your former teammates after you switch team and try to baserape them in turn. I just can't get the logic of switchers - if you can call that Logic.
