I am suprised we don't have this, I have noticed horrible problems with teamstacking especially on the 33 slot 24/7 Goldrush server.
It usually ends up where the score is like 15 to 1 and I try to votescramble, then I realize the server doesn't have that, so I rage quit.

It's been brought up multiple times, scrambles really don't jumble up the teams enough as is. Also votescramble is always abused by the losing team though in goldrush the losing team is losing because everyone on the other team is a bunch of people who know each other stacking.
I was a commando you know.

Well then you make it require 60% or so to scramble?
I am sure the benefits out weigh the downsides.

Wouldn't forcing everyone to auto-team when they join be easier? Not that I care much if people stack a team sometimes, it doesn't always mean that team will win in Valve Maps 1.

Auto'ing is just stacking BLU for people that want to say 'But I auto'd!'.
For the 24/7 maps this might be a worthy idea, but I'd say avoid it on the rotation servers. Map changes are a nice way to scramble.

votescramble is not the panacea you are looking for. Move along...

Friend up with Bumpy and play the All Maps server where the goal is to not die as opposed to winning. You will have a much better time.

We've been over stacking before (maybe a dozen times now). The !votescramble wont be introduced anytime. Stacking is just part of the servers and can be avoided by having a few decent players spread themselves out among teams. giving people the option to use !votescramble would just lead to the abuse of it.

I realize you're a goldrush player but do you play the valve #1 + 2 servers? Your view of how "we" play is rather inaccurate and generalized. Some players do indeed try to limit their deaths others tend to hurl themselves at the enemy. I've never seen a set style of playing yet to surface.

That would be me.

I don't know scramble seems to work pretty well when I start a vote, of course sometimes it gets voted down and sometimes it still ends up one sided but for the most part it works nicely
