    Okay, so we have a pretty good rule set in my opinion. We've got practically everything covered. The problem is, we are missing one crucial rule: No team-stacking.

    What's "team-stacking"?

    Team stacking is when there is a team that is about to win, and a player, at the last minute, changes teams so they are winning.

    But Skrill, why don't you like team-stacking?

    I completely dislike team-stacking since it shows poor sportsmanship, and another reason: with the plugins we have, someone could switch teams and unbalance them, thus leading someone to be forcibly switched to the other team. Team stacking is rude, annoying, and it really shouldn't be a thing.

    No.

    You can't really force people to stay on 1 team.
    If they wanna change team let them, their decision.

    I mean like the last minute switch they do, causing others to be balanced, it's plain rude and generally frowned upon.

    You still can't force them not to do it.
    Some people are like that, you can't change those people and it would be odd if you ban them for something like that.

    Why does it matter, really? It's not like they get anything from winning.

    It's not neccesary at all.
    As downie said "You can't really force people".

    I'm pretty sure they'll ragequit the server, if they aren't allowed to switch team when they are about to lose.

    I disagree and here is my reason:

    I want to play on the team my friends are on.

    Do you know what happens when you have too many rules on a server? People won't play on them. It can't be 100% fair and nice all the time in a online game. It just doesn't work like that. And people who change team the last minute before losing are just very bad losers. The other players will disrespect them but life moves on. There already is a couple of unnecessary rules in my opinion, and this is another one. No, I don't think it's a good idea to add that rule.

    Krupp's argument holds water because yes, it is true.
    It's best to leave it as it is.
