If you are numerically outnumbered admins should be doing something to even the teams. If teams are even numerically then I would not count on admin intervention to even the "skill" of the teams.

Source makes it very very easy for admins to balance and, on top of that, CSS has the shortest rounds of any TPG game, giving the admins plenty of opportunity to balance as well.

If you have someone not following orders, call them out. Admins will look into it and take the appropriate action

this will work on most Maps. If you're in Echo squad why not Defend/Attack the Flag named....Echo, and so forth alphabetically. the only map it won't work with is Metro, witch doesn't need any guidance anyway.

I agree. It sucks.

I like to comminucate with the whole team before the round starts, stating what bases my squad (if im squad leader) will be going after and defending. Usually prevents alot of the blobbing that happens. Squads just need to communicate with each other, makes things a lot more easier.

was there ever a teamstacking thread in BC2?

There were huge team stacking complaints in BC2 when we first started hosting it. People joining only off the friends list created all sorts of problems with team balance, both in terms of skill and player count.
