Use to help on some RTCW servers that would lock the players on their selected teams till the end of the map cycles. If teams became unbalanced it would take the #3 player and switch them over.
Initial team stacking is one thing, but when players start switching mid game is when you end up with just hopeless rounds. Of course people are never happy, but it lead to some more competitive play.
Just my 2 cents.. flame on!

The more you play here, the better you will get and this will cease to be an issue. Eventually, you will tell all the new members of the forum the same thing.

Thanks bud, but I use my mic at all times, and when people on your team aren't using their mics, its kinda hard to get coordinated isn't it? You must not play tf2 very much or on the unstacked team too often. Must be one of the ones joining red team all the time right? Thanks for your suggestions tho chief.
He plays on the super serious 24/7 2fort instant respawn server.
LOL, I play there all the time. It amazes me how seriously so many players take this and rage over and over. Blood and carnage are the theme, I don't know that most players there even realize there's intelligence to be stolen

Stacking is a serious problem in these servers.
Auto assigning teams is honestly the best solution. I doubt very much that people would stop coming around just because they couldn't pick red or blu.
The most fun games are the ones where both teams are closely matched, and I think you'd be very hard pressed to find anyone who disagrees.
Adding a time limit to the team selecting screen isn't going to stop everyone from joining red immediately, it's just going to make them do it faster. The only problem that solves is the AFK one.

forced auto team assign for everyone but maybe reserved slot players would definitely help out team wise.
Of course this would cause problem for some friends who trying to play on same team, but having everyone happy is not always easy.
Reason I say that force auto team should be for non reserved slots is that people tend to often leave and rejoin to try to get on the "stacked" team so that its easier for them to get points and thus avoid getting kicked for reserved slot, or having better chance not to get kicked, as reserved kick works by points/etc. Often, there are players waiting in spectator for long time trying to join specific team.
If idea of forced team assign is too extreme then maybe have it enable it only during first 5 minutes of new map, so that at least teams are scrambled in a way on beginning of each map.
