If it happens once or twice a day (or week, maybe?) when all the rest of the rounds are just the opposite, you really can't use it as an argument, IMO.

IMO If you dont like a clan deciding that they want to play with there clan mates on there own server dont play there, its really that simple to understand. Whineing about clans stacking teams on the Mod forums isnt gonna help either. Either join a clan or somehow instill an ethic of teamwork into the community.

And stacked teams are more likely to win a round yes, not our problem that the community have decided to download a teamwork orientanted mod then aimed only to go on a killing spree with little concern for the rest of the team.

It doesn't hurt to make a short post on their forums indicating your decision not to play there due to stacked teams, a screenshot of the event helps as does noting it happened more than once if it did. No reason to go off on them for doing so though, it's their choice if they want to run a server that way.

The clan being all on one side isn't the problem. The problem is that a lot of the better players (clan members included) simply refuse to join the losing team when the teams are stacked. They hide behind comments about the losing team needing to work harder, us getting on their vent, or mentioning the times where the 'better' team has lost. Which translate to us as "We like our stacked team, F*** off!"

I don't hate stacked teams enough to push me away from a server I've had over a year of good games on. But it disappoints me when the people running that server, disrespect the community that makes them popular. It hurts the quality of players in the server, and it's really starting to show.

I typically play SL and sometimes CO.

If my team stomped the other team last round, I switch teams to try and even things out. I have found that switching teams and trying to get other SLs on board with a plan can greatly turn things around for the better. I find great fun in switching to the team that just lost and trying to get them to work together for a common goal.

I have had rounds where I switched and helped lead my team to victory, I have also had rounds where I switched and got stomped regardless of how well we did or didn't work together.

Just remember that squadwork and teamwork are not the same thing.

Cheers.

When I join a server & I see one team all clanned up I leave the server before I even spawn. I will have a more enjoyable gaming expierence on another server.

That said tho I do understand why clanners like to stack a team. Why be in a clan if you aren't going to play with your buds? That's the point of being in a clan isn't it? Get that whole good teamwork thing going right? To hang with others of a like mind & have fun together? *shrug*

I'll be honest, I do see team stacking quite a bit sometimes. It happens because experienced players for the most part know each other and will typically want to play with other players who know wtf they are doing.

The solution to this problem lies with the experienced players: they need to be willing to stay with the side that looks like it is less prepared and lead a squad of more inexperienced players. A truly experienced pr player knows how to manage those who have little to no experience. Those n00bs will learn from you and eventually become vets.

Everybody likes to play with their friends in PR and clan members are someone they have been around even if you are not friends you know they will not fuck things up it may be painful for the other team, but clan people are human to and humans kinda likes to be around people they like or know.
