Your first point is invalid, because you are a butthurt medic with a massive ego.


The rest, I agree 100%. Kudos.

Thanks for the Kudos on the rest.

My first point has to do with the community being sourceops strong point as thus people log on to play with their friends. You can't force people to play on opposite teams (I hope you realize this). They will either play elsewhere or just try other games.

I was on one morning when a regular was scolded for team swapping. The admin told him he was handing out bans for people who did that consistently. The regular said he would just stop playing the server. You may think, "who needs that guy anyway," but he is not in the minority. TF2 is a hobby, no one needs to play this game, they do it for enjoyment. If admins feel its in there best interest to even teams even if that divides up steam friends then you will lose community members.

Yes, but it's called stacking, steamrolling and even circlejerking.

Ultimately it ends up in many players leaving and hurting the server.

You are hurting the server for your own personal fun.
