Force join random team?

As Unsichtbar said, all the top 100 players join the same team to maintain their rank and icon, so to stop this, should we add a plugin that automatically forces everyone to join a random team?

I think we should because at the moment, all the "best" players on the server are statwhoring and always going comm or always GL spamming to get as many points as they can and nto actually helping the team, forcing them to join a random team would stop the rapings we've been having and balance out the teams.

What do you think?

Random can make teams uneven too. It is so hard to balance teams for regular players on the server? It is always the same, if i ban some players for spam, the spam stops. Sometimes i get this "kiddy day-care-center" feeling. Say uncle admin to me :twisted:

Hello Uncle admin unsichtbar :lol: ^^

Anyway, I do think this is a good idea,since it prevents stacking on a team that already contains some top 100 players.

that's the disadvantage of the honor icons

a lot of people just seek for them. and as i already said in an other thread you don't get enough "skill points" for being supportive in an NS map. but u cant win the map if there are not support-players!

so my suggestion:
1. more skill points (i'm talking about the "skill", which counts for the rank) given for supportive players, e.g. gorge for healing and marine for welding.

2. maybe a plugin, that checks the teams for the top 100 players. if there are all top 100 in one team, the plugin moves some players to the other team. i don't know how to write such a plugin, but i think it should be able to check the rank of all players in the teams, then u have a quotient of the teams like
marines 86 : aliens 264
that means, there are more top players on rine side.
then it should pick the best players from rine team and move to alien team, until score gets almost even: 264+86=350 350/2=175

so maybe 168 : 182 just as it is possible with the players on server.

and it should try to distribute from top down, so rank 1 --> one side, rank 2 --> other side, .... rank 5 one side, rank 10 other side

this distribution should only happen when lets say 3/4 of all players have joined a team. then it checks them and starts to work. if there are some palyers in RR at that time, they get a warning to join in ... 30 secs. then they get forced to a team (according to rank). when they still dont move the afk-plugin kicks them after 300 sec (or whatever).

just becuase one team has more points than the other doesn't mean they have more top100 players.... Also forcing people to change to a different team when they dont want to will jsut result in a lot of people just leaving the server...

schmarall, great idea.

Maybe this is the best for ballancing - but who wrote this plugin?

This plugin name will be:

"ranked and ballanced random team plugin"
